A senior British official has said Putin has been told this is the point at which NATO jumps in and evicts him from Ukraine. The first use of nukes against a peer nuclear power has always been a bluff. The reason being the logic of nuclear weapons means the first to knock the other side out wins. Hence any nuclear weapons use will devolve into an attempt to exterminate the other side. We won’t use nukes to push Russia out of Ukraine. But we will assuredly kill every last Russian, including the entire Putin clan if he nukes us. And Putin knows this. Again, he’s looking to win at an acceptable cost, not turn Russia into a place empty of human life, from which even a rump Russian state will never again rise.
