It is necessary to recognize that the total tension from regional military conflicts has greatly increased. To a large extent, this tension comes from Russia, which now ignores almost all international agreements and behaves like a robber on land and a pirate at sea. There are other foci of tension, with some appearing, others disappearing. However, this does not mean that the world is on the threshold of another world war. I think that now everyone should understand that there will be no more winners in the next world war. If accumulated nuclear arsenals are used, then after the war, the winners will have a hard time living on the planet, how much the ecology will change for the worse.
