乌克兰地面部队指挥官Oleksandr Syrskiy将军在接受美国广播公司首席驻外记者Ian Pannell的独家采访时表示，世界应该担心俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京的威胁使用核武器。
上个月底，在莫斯科在战场上遭遇一系列挫折后，普京几乎毫不掩饰地威胁说，俄罗斯将在对乌克兰的战争中使用核武器。
“我们担心，也应该担心，”西尔斯基告诉美国广播公司新闻。

这位乌克兰将军相信，尽管面临战争的挑战，但他的国家正在赢得对俄罗斯的战斗。
“当然，我认为我们会赢。因为最重要的是，我们正在赢得心理战，”西尔斯基说。"我们在战场上取得了胜利，但战争是艰难的。"
乌克兰武装部队司令西尔斯基在春季的基辅战役和9月的哈尔科夫战役中获胜。成功的突袭反攻迅速解放了数千平方英里的被占领土，迫使俄国人退回到他们的边境。
上个月，普京指责乌克兰实施恐怖主义，此前一次爆炸摧毁了连接被占领的克里米亚和俄罗斯的部分桥梁，这是俄罗斯军队的一条重要补给线。
“自第二次世界大战以来，欧洲和世界其他地方都没有发生过如此规模的战争。我们明白，这场战争关系到我们人民和我们国家的生存，这就是为什么我们除了胜利别无选择。
'We are and should be worried' of Putin's nuclear threat, Ukrainian general says: Exclusive
The commander of Ukraine’s ground forces General Oleksandr Syrskiy, in an exclusive interview with ABC News' Chief Foreign Correspondent Ian Pannell, said the world should be worried about Russian President Vladimir Putin'sthreat to use nuclear weapons.
Late last month, Putin issued a thinly veiled threat that Russia would resort to using nuclear weapons in its war against Ukraine following a series of setbacks for Moscow on the battlefield.
"We are and should be worried," Syrskiy told ABC News.

The Ukrainian general is confident that his country is winning the fight against Russia, despite the challenges of war.
"Of course, I think we are winning. Because first and foremost, we are winning the psychological battle," Syrskiy said. "We have success on the battleground, but the war is difficult."
Syrskiy, the commander of the Army of the Armed Forced of Ukraine, won the battle of Kyiv in the spring and the battle of Kharkiv in September. The successful surprise counteroffensive rapidly liberated thousands of square miles of occupied territory, forcing the Russians back towards their border.
Last month, Putin accused Ukraine of terrorism after an explosion destroyed parts of a bridge connecting occupied Crimea to Russia, a vital supply route for Russian forces.
"There hasn't been any wars at that scale in Europe, or elsewhere in the world, since the Second World War. And we understand that this war is about the survival of our people and our state and this is why we have no other option but to win," Syrskiy said.
