Komsomolskaya Pravda (KP) is actively telling Russians to prepare “for a potential war with NATO” warning there will be nuclear conflict with the West.
KP is state backed and Vladimir Putin’s favourite newspaper who are twisting the truth of what senior US General have said as a reason to go to war with the West.
KP is telling people to prepare for a nuclear war with the West and are falsely telling their citizens that Western political and military leaders have threatened conflict with Russia.
Russian military expert Andrei Klintsevich said: “They [West] need a big war to dismember Russia into small independent states and get free access to our resources.”
Independent news outlet Agentsvo reported that KP article is “intended to prepare Russian public opinion for a potential war with NATO.”

Klintsevich told KP that the West are mobilising their military who are also mining their borders and are heavily investing in defence and are trying to provoke Moscow, he then accused Western leaders of preparing to start conflict with Russia between 2028 and 2030.
Klintsevich is demanding that Putin conducts nuclear weapon testing in the Arctic which has not been seen since the end of Cold War, to stop the West.
He believes that war could start in the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad, which is heavily militarised, this comes as the US General Christopher Donahue said that NATO could destroy the region “in a time frame that is unheard of and faster than we’ve ever been able to do,” should Russia threaten the alliance.
Last week General Donahue discussed the “eastern Flank Deterrence Line” which is aimed at improving ground-based capabilities, Defense News reported.
Defence News reported Donahue saying, “We know what we have to develop and the use case that we’re using is you have to [deter] from the ground.
“The land domain is not becoming less important; it’s becoming more important. You can now take down [anti-access, aerial-denial] A2AD bubbles from the ground.
“You can now take over sea from the ground. All of those things we are watching happen in Ukraine.”
The Russian military expert added, “Donahue’s words confirm that they are preparing to seize Kaliningrad.
“The Swedish island of Gotland is already being turned into a powerful warship – with air defence systems, anti-ship missiles, and more being deployed there. Estonia and Finland are forming a joint group.”
Klintsevich then warned, “Under a made-up pretext, they’ll block Kaliningrad’s air and sea routes.
“Our protests and ultimatums will be ignored, forcing our troops to fight their way through the Suwałki Gap [a 60-mile-wide strip of land connecting NATO states Lithuania and Poland, flanked by Russia – Kaliningrad – and its ally Belarus].
“In such a case, Europe would launch a ground operation in Kaliningrad using large numbers of rockets, artillery, and drones.”
Leonid Slutsky, the chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Russian State Duma, said in response to an attack on Kaliningrad Moscow will attack “with all due retaliatory measures.”
Tass reported Slutsky saying, “An attack on the Kaliningrad Region will mean an attack on Russia, with all due retaliatory measures, stipulated, among other things, by its nuclear doctrine.
“The US general should take this into account before making such statements.”
The Kremlin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Russia’s nuclear doctrine “remains in effect” after the US President Donald Trump announced America will be sending Ukraine with advanced weaponry.
