Former Trump advisor for security: US can kill Putin if he uses nuclear weapons

In an interview with him LBCFormer US President Donald Trump's close associate said that if Moscow decides to use a nuclear weapon, then US secret services are able to find Putin and kill him.

“Look at what happened in Iran with Qasssem Soleyan, when we decide that someone poses a threat to the US”, Bolton said, referring to the Iranian general who died under Trump leadership in January 2020, causing months of unrest with Iran and helping further radicalisation of the Iranian regime.

Therefore, Bolton added, any use of nuclear weapons by the Russian ruler would constitute for him “suicide”, as the American reaction would come immediately.

“But I do not rule out the possibility of nuclear weapons if Russian forces in Ukraine are destroyed or whether Putin will really be in a difficult position, politically within Russia”, he added.

And we need to make this clear to him and the people around him, in his government, so they can take action before he does something like that. ”
