Putin announces test of nuclear weapon capable of causing 'radioactive tsunami' days after Trump issued warning

The Russian government might just have made another major step towards World War 3, as President Vladimir Putin announces the success of a new nuclear weapons test capable of creating a 'radioactive tsunami', despite an alarming warning from US President Donald Trump just a few days ago.

Tensions between Ukraine and Russia, and the United States as a consequence, appear to be growing continuously over three years after the latter's initial invasion.

Conversations surrounding peace talks appear to be constantly in flux, with an agreement seemingly in place after President Trump and Putin met in Alaska earlier this year, but that has now fallen apart following a breakdown in talks.

Additionally, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is rightfully unwilling to hand over any land whatsoever as part of peace talks and negotiations, which has caused friction in the relationship with the United States government.

However, new dangers appear to have emerged between America and Russia following an announcement from Putin, causing many to wonder whether World War 3 is on the horizon.

Earlier this week it appeared as if the Russian military tested its Burevestnik cruise missile, which it deems to be an 'invincible' nuclear weapon capable of penetrating any and all defense systems, causing Trump to issue a warning heard across the globe.

Speaking aboard Air Force One, Trump outlined: "They know we have a nuclear submarine, the greatest in the world, right off their shore," perhaps suggesting that it would be primed to strike if any further movements were made by Russia.

Putin appears to have tested this resolve, as reported by the Independent, as a new nuclear weapons test has been successful, with this one capable of causing a 'radioactive tsunami' at its target location.

Perhaps suitably known under the name of 'Poseidon', experts claim that this Russian nuclear weapon would trigger radioactive ocean swells around coastal cities, rendering them effectively inhabitable, although the specifics of this missile aren't currently in the public domain.

Speaking about the successful test, Putin outlined: "For the first time, we managed not only to launch it with a launch engine from a carrier submarine, but also to launch the nuclear power unit on which this device passed a certain amount of time," adding that "there is nothing like this."

While US intelligence reports shared by NBC News suggest that there is no sign Putin or Russia is ready to compromise on Ukraine in peace talks, Belgium's defense minister Theo Francken has now also claimed that Moscow would be 'wiped off the map' if a NATO capital was attacked, per Ukrainska Pravda, further adding to the threats that could eventually lead to global warfare.
