Russia-Ukraine War The war between Russia and Ukraine is now a long history. It has been more than two years and ten months since this conflict began. Recently, there has been a new turn in this war, due to which tension has increased in the whole world. After the recent missile attack by Ukraine, Russia has used Inter-Continental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) for the first time. This missile is capable of long range strike and has the power to carry a nuclear warhead.
Russia’s new step and increasing threat
This step of Russia has given rise to a new concern at the global level. Ukraine’s intelligence agency has warned that Russia can now launch a large-scale attack, which could lead to a nuclear war. If this happens, it will be a terrible situation for the whole world, due to which the fear of third world war is also being raised. Experts believe that if Russia launches a nuclear attack on Ukraine, it will have global consequences.
Threat of Third World War: What will be the effects?
If a Third World War arises, the most affected region will be South Asia. Countries like Pakistan, India, and China possess nuclear powers in the region, which would make the situation more serious during a war. This area is particularly sensitive, and millions of people here could be affected.
Major countries of the world and their future
In such a situation, the future of those countries will be in question, where nuclear weapons can have dangerous effects. According to a study conducted in America, if a nuclear war occurs, about 98 percent of the people of America (about 300 million people) may die of hunger. The same situation may occur in much of Europe, Russia and other densely populated areas.
Hunger and food crisis: What will be the next step?
According to a study published in Nature Food, a nuclear war would have serious impacts on the atmosphere and agriculture, which could disrupt food supplies around the world. Due to this, 6.7 billion people may become victims of starvation. Amidst these effects, there are some countries that can avoid mass starvation. Countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay, Australia, Iceland and Oman are potentially safe places where food supplies could remain stable even after a war.
Right places to take shelter
Antarctica: This continent has very little strategic importance, making it one of the safe places during a nuclear war. Its vast and undeveloped territory can accommodate thousands of refugees.
iceland: Known for its neutral stance and peace, Iceland could remain safe during a nuclear war.
New Zealand: This country provides natural security from military threats due to its neutral foreign policy and mountainous terrain.
Switzerland: Switzerland, long known for its neutrality, could be a safe option during a nuclear war.
Greenland, Indonesia and Tuvalu: These countries are geographically distant and politically neutral, allowing them to avoid potential military conflicts.
Argentina, Chile and Uruguay: These South American countries may remain safe even after a nuclear war due to their abundant agricultural resources and relatively stable infrastructure.
Asylum and protection: what to do?
Because this threat is not only related to the war situation, but also to its aftermath, it is essential that all countries take steps to strengthen their security and food supplies. International cooperation and understanding is essential for a stable and secure future.
Ways to avoid nuclear explosion
According to a study by Nicosia University of Cyprus, if a 750 kiloton nuclear explosion occurs, the safest place should be in a strong and indoor room. The farther away from doors and windows the better. The ideal place could be a corner of the room, so you can protect yourself from the blast and radiation.
