"Pope's 'White Flag' Remark Sparks US Nuclear Attack Fear"
TL;DR Summary
The US sought help from China and India to dissuade Russia from a potential nuclear strike in 2022, while Pope Francis faced criticism for suggesting Ukraine should have the "courage" to negotiate with Russia, which was interpreted as a call for surrender. Flights resumed at a Russian airport after a Ukrainian drone was shot down nearby, and a Russian gas pipeline exploded after alleged "Ukrainian strikes." Meanwhile, Moldova faces threats from Russia, and Sweden officially joins NATO, further solidifying the alliance's presence in the Nordic region.
