" "The book recounts a tense phone call between Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and his Russian counterpart in October 2022.
"If you did this, all the restraints that we have been operating under in Ukraine would be reconsidered," Austin said to Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, according to Woodward. "This would isolate Russia on the world stage to a degree you Russians cannot fully appreciate."
"I don't take kindly to being threatened," Shoigu responded.
"Mr. Minister," Austin said, according to Woodward, "I am the leader of the most powerful military in the history of the world. I don't make threats."
