Deadly Poison Sarin or…Russia’s Use of Chemical Weapons Worries “Shuddering Consequences”

It would be easier to block the entrance to the steel mill and smother them with chemical troops.

These disturbing statements were made by Vasulin, a spokesman for the Russian-backed “Donetsk People’s Republic.

Russian forces are intensifying their offensive in Mariupol, a key city in the Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine. The city’s mayor, Boychenko, noted that more than 10,000 civilians have been killed. The elite “Azov Regiment” of the Ukrainian National Guard is deployed in Mariupol, but it has been driven into the Azovstal steelworks along the overseas coast and continues to resist underground. april 11 On April 1, the “Azov Regiment” surrendered a heartbreaking message on Twitter.

Russian forces dropped a toxic substance from an unmanned aerial vehicle on Ukrainian troops and civilians in Mariupol. Several victims are having difficulty breathing.”

Local media reports that the “toxic substance” may be sarin, which is found in 1 cubic meter of 100 mg The spraying of this deadly poison is enough to kill half the people in the area. In Japan, it has also been reported that 95 In March 1985, Aum Shinrikyo sprayed sarin gas in the subway system, killing many people.

Commanded by a commander who also used it in Syria.

Although the Russian military denies using chemical weapons, we cannot overlook the statement of spokesman Vasulin, introduced at the beginning of this article.

“ 15 In the Syrian civil war in which Russia has intervened since September 2006, a UN investigation has found that sarin was actually used against rebel forces. Russian forces taught the Syrian army how to use sarin and 1,000 It is estimated that more than 100 people have been killed.

One man who is said to have played a central role was Dvornikov, who was the commander-in-chief of the Syrian stationed forces. Mr. Dvornikov assumed command of the entire Ukrainian theater of operations on April 9. A number of Syrian mercenaries have also been deployed in Ukraine. It would not be surprising if they used sarin under Dvornikov’s direction.

The use of sarin, which takes the lives of numerous people in an instant, is a clear violation of international law. Why would Russia even deploy inhumane weapons? Professor Itsuro Nakamura of Tsukuba Gakuin University, an expert on the situation in Russia, offers his opinion.

They are getting impatient with the unexpected counterattack by the Ukrainian military. May 9, the anniversary of the war against Germany, is an important day for Russia, as it is the day it is said to have defeated Nazi Germany in World War II. President Putin wants to achieve results by the anniversary at all costs. He wants to defeat Ukraine, which he considers a “neo-Nazi” state, and declare a second victory. To achieve this, he will leave no stone unturned and may even resort to the use of chemical weapons. “

U.S. President Biden has long warned that if Russia uses chemical weapons, he will take severe countermeasures. What is expected in Ukraine in the future is a horrifying development. Professor Nakamura continues.

“The U.S. and NATO will not remain silent. In particular, the U.S. has a bitter history of tacitly acknowledging the fact that Russia used chemical weapons in Syria and withdrawing from the region. If it gets confirmation of the use of chemical weapons in Ukraine, it is highly likely that it will enter the war. Russian forces will be overwhelmingly outnumbered. There is a good chance that President Putin, backed into a corner, will risk using nuclear weapons.”

The war situation in Ukraine is becoming more horrific by the day. If the use of chemical weapons is true, the outcome of the war could be tragic.
