As a nuclear deterrent maxi-operation begins, NATO is also preparing to manage panic and public order in the event that Vladimir Putin decides to drop the atomic bomb in an attempt to win the war in Ukraine. In recent weeks, says Il Messaggero, secret meetings of government officials adhering to the Atlantic pact have been staged, and will take place again, to prepare plans that could contain the spread of fear among the population in the event of an attack from Russia.
The planning in case the bomb is dropped, whether on Ukraine or on an uninhabited place, is meticulous. “The aim of the plan is to prevent many people from leaving cities and stocking up on food in supermarkets and useless iodine pills in pharmacies if a bomb goes off. The risk of an economic collapse resulting from panic is very high and the population must be prepared with information campaigns on TV, on the web and in schools”, objective revealed by the newspaper. Meanwhile, NATO is flexing its muscles with the exercise in the skies: everything is being done to persuade Putin not to push the button that initiates nuclear launches.
