The risk of a direct collision between Russia and the United States increases, creating a threat to the existence of the entire civilization.

This was told by the Russian financier and blogger Slava Rabinovich, the "Apostrophe".

"There was no direct collision in the air or on the ground between American and Russian or Soviet servicemen, probably since the Vietnam and Korean wars. But the fact is that in all this there is a huge - probably even 99% - share of Putin's bluff, "writes Rabinovich.

According to the blogger, the Kremlin understands that if the war with NATO does not grow into a global nuclear conflict, it will end in 20 minutes.

"Well, maybe in three days. And not in favor of the Russian Federation. And this, of course, will be the end of this regime. And as for nuclear catastrophe. Is it that all kleptomaniacs of the KGB for more than twenty years stole and settled their lives in the West to burn all this in a global nuclear fire, including not only their assets, but also their families, their children? !! "- explains Rabinovich.

Like many manifestations of aggression against stronger sides, Russian President Putin is only bluffing, he assures.

"And behind this bluff, there is not much to eat. Most likely, this is understood not only by people like me, but also by the Pentagon and the White House, the Israeli military. It all looks a little ridiculous.

About the same as the episode in one of the episodes of the Indiana Jones series: a character starts waving before Indiana Jones a saber, trying to summon him to a duel; Indiana Jones looks at this with a surprised look, then pulls out a gun and kills this "swinging sword". That's about how it looks, "- added the expert.

As the "Observer" wrote, Russia broke off cooperation with the United States in Syria.
