WWith the current pandemic sort of dimming down, it’s no surprise that once again the world-leading powers are in quite a tense conflict. Since Biden became the President of the United States the relationship between Russia and the United States sort of turned worst and this may be because Putin does not really find Biden to be that fond and the same applied to Biden’s opinion on Putin.

The news always dramatizes the conflict or relation between two nations, especially when tensions escalate. However, the broken United Kingdom has successfully achieved a lot of attention that it had been seeking by really escalating the tensions between America and Russia.

Since the start of November, many tabloids and newspapers have been showing the image you see above, promoting the new hypersonic nuclear missile that the U.S. has produced. Showcasing new weaponry is not a problem, but showing the capabilities of it reaching the capital of Russia during such political tensions is the worst thing you can do. They even estimate the time it would take for the missile to reach Moscow.

Taking it too far
