A Russian MP has revealed how to bring “Europe to its knees” by nuking just one EU country.
Andrei Gurulev is a MP who sits in Russia‘s parliament the Duma and is also a reserve Lieutenant General.
He has been an outspoken supporter of Putin’s war and has even advocated using nuclear weapons in Ukraine.
The MP has once again hit the headlines after urging Vladimir Putin to press the red button and obliterate a long standing British ally.
During a discussion on Putin-controlled state TV, he said: “I discovered for myself that almost 50–60 percent of Europe’s hydrocarbon supply is in Holland.
“Imagine, in Holland on the coast. The military calls this a fat target.
“We understand perfectly well how to inflict critically unacceptable damage to bring Europe to its knees.
“Moreover, this is a matter of one day. With minimal consumption of nuclear weapons.”
Gurulev is no stranger to controversy and is known for his hard-line aggressive views and expansionist dreams.
Recently he urged Putin to invade Russia‘s Kazakhstan after the the army finishes its business in Ukraine.
He accused Russia‘s neighbour and former satellite of allowing pro-Ukrainian forces to launch drone strikes against the motherland from its territory.
Last August the army reservist also urged the Kremlin to go nuclear to stop Ukraine‘s counteroffensive in the Zaporozhye region, after Kyiv’s forces achieved an initial breakthrough.
“Near Rabotino, now fire four shots from the 152nd gun [with tactical nuclear shells] and we can safely close the topic,” he argued.
“Wait for the wind to blow it away, go in, collect all the equipment that remains, and move on.
“And no need to rack your brains. Nuclear weapons are Russian property.”
