As the West feared that Moscow might be preparing to invade Ukraine, the Russian military announced massive drills of its strategic forces on February 18, as per Reuters report. Zee Business’ Siddhant Sibal presents a special report on the repercussions of this new update.

Russian President Vladimir Putin will personally oversee Saturday’s exercise, which will involve multiple launches of intercontinental ballistic missiles and cruise missiles, the report stated.

Sibal said that messaging plays an important role in geopolitical issues. And this announcement is a message on behalf of Moscow.

Sibal said that U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken laid out at the United Nations Security Council on February 17 how they believe Russia could seek to invade Ukraine, warning that Moscow was preparing to attack its neighbour in the coming days.

US said that Russia may launch a chemical attack.
