"Rare Footage Shows Putin with Nuclear Briefcase in China, Raising Concerns"
Rare footage shows Russian President Vladimir Putin in Beijing accompanied by officers carrying the nuclear briefcase, known as the "Cheget," which can be used to order a nuclear strike. The briefcase, traditionally carried by a naval officer, is rarely filmed but always travels with the president. The US president also has a similar device called the "nuclear football." Tensions between Russia and the US have escalated due to the Ukraine war, while China seeks to bolster its nuclear arsenal.
