The Kremlin said it reserves the right to use nuclear weapons if it faces aggression by Western countries. Overnight, Moscow attacked Kyiv, killing at least eight people.

        A: they committed genocide when they used a nuke

        2: we killed enough nazis that the rest of the Germans learned.
