? i think if he was backed into a corner, he might go that far . but right now i don't think he's seriously considering it. and i believe statements we're hearing by the bush administration about chemical weapons are really overblown. but i do believe that putin will use the prospect of nuclear war to keep us out of this conflict, to keep nato from intervening. but i mean, there's some talk that maybe putin would use chemical weapons against cities. i don't think there's any very low chance he would do that because i mean, talk about being a pariah this would cost him any possibility of a negotiated settlement. i think it would cost him whatever support he has from china. and let me come back to you on military supplies from nato countries including the united states. we're getting a lot and obviously president solinsky or once more the russians now saying that they will target those convoys. they hit a weapons convoy
