For the journalist, it is clear that the invasion of Russian troops on Ukrainian soil has triggered a global conflict. “The entire western world supplies weapons, cyberattacks are coordinated on an intercontinental scale, the energy and food crises that arise from war affect the whole world. Above all, this conflict is at the root of the current geopolitical power shifts in the world. So yes, the Third World War has already started for some time”, exclaims Rudi Vranckx.
War in Ukraine: the Russian army signs a contract with a first private army… and that will not please the leader of the Wagner group
After having seen the difficult situation in Ukraine several times, Rudi Vranckx explains that it is difficult to know in advance whether it will improve or not: “We live in an unpredictable explosive cocktail, and few people know if it will ignite and how. It doesn’t take much for this war to spin out of control at any moment. The great fear of a nuclear war, which was so strong in the first months, slowly subsided among many Europeans, but I am still not so reassured”, he continues.
Our colleague returned to the drone attacks in Crimea in May. For Rudi Vranckx, it is neither more nor less than a criminal act carried out by the Russians. “It’s a pretext to intensify the war. In the meantime, what is the temptation for Putin to deploy a small tactical nuclear bomb? And then you also have to ask yourself the question: where does it begin and where does it end? I may not need to explain it, but a small tactical nuke in 2023 is far more disastrous than Hiroshima,” he argues.
