Nostradamus’ prediction about a potential World War Three has resurfaced after Vladimir Putin has issued a chilling warning.
This comes after attempts from the US to broker a peace deal over the Russian invasion of Ukraine have failed.
Since then, concerns have been raised after the Russian president said that his country is ‘ready’ for war with Europe.
Both Russian and American officials met in Moscow, Russia, yesterday (December 2) but after hours of talks, they were ‘neither further nor closer to resolving the crisis in Ukraine’.

Yuri Ushakov, who is Putin’s foreign policy advisor, said: “Some of the American proposals seem more or less acceptable, but they need to be discussed. Some of the wording that was proposed doesn't suit us. So the work will continue.”
President Donald Trump’s plans for peace, which includes proposed territorial concessions to Russia, has gained little support from Ukrainians.
With Russia wanting to gain Ukrainian territory, Ukraine is unwilling to give up its land to the invading nation.

Meanwhile, Putin yesterday accused Europe of being ‘on the side of war’, a statement which holds little value when it comes from the mouth of a person who started a war which has left thousands dead and millions displaced from their homes.
He added that Europe was ‘preventing the US administration from achieving peace in Ukraine’, though he failed to explain which parts of Trump’s peace plan that met with Russian approval had failed to gain the support of the rest of the continent.
Putin insisted he was ‘not planning to go to war with Europe’, which would be quite convenient for him since his army is more than three years into their three-day invasion of one country so quite how he'd handle being at war with an entire continent is a possibility best not explored since that situation would essentially be WW3.

“But if Europe suddenly wants to fight us and starts, we’re ready right now. There can be no doubt about that,” he said.
“If Europe suddenly wants to start a war with us and does, then a situation could very quickly arise in which we have no one to negotiate with.”
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he was ‘awaiting signals’ from the US delegation after their meeting in Moscow, having said that the revised American peace plan ‘looks better’ but work on it was ‘not over yet’.
Zelenskyy is seeking security guarantees that would mean Russia cannot just use a peace deal to rebuild its military stockpiles and then launch another invasion for the rest of what they want later on.

This has led many to raise concerns over a Nostradamus passage which reads: “seven months the Great War, people dead of evil-doing. Rouen, Evreux shall not fall to the King.”
Some believe this could allude to a wider conflict resulting in a third World War.
