Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Scary, but this reports sounds the same feeling as those in the early 1980s, when the Cold War was in one of its worst moments and a nuclear war was possible. After Putin invaded Ukraine and the latest declarations we can't but wonder if this is possible again, living in fear if the nuclear bomb again. Maybe not a global war, but what they now call limited used of the bomb to make some statements, or when the survival of the country is in doubt. We are just sure that the situation in Europe now is dangerous, more than with the USSR as the levels of authority in those times meant more control on the last decision to push the button. Anyway, watch this, and remember that whatever is happening life continues to thrive and this, also, shall pass.
