For the NPC, it is still Ukraine-crisis. Standing on the edge to World War 3.
To get to the next page of this world war script, they have to put the nuclear option into the npc's narrative. And last but not least, to start the actual ww3 script, that atomic bomb has to detonate. As more they are forced with this ww3 script, as closer we get to the actual starting point of said script.
If it is true, that the russia have all the doc's from the biolab, and can prove that the democrats of america are behind this, than we will see that push to the next page very soon.
