“First off what is an existencial treat Russia will decide not you.”

To sentient human beings, an existential threat is a direct threat to continued existence. But, I suppose to Russia an existential threat could be nothing more than a fart in its general direction.

“And you don’t understand the doctrine.”

Oh, I very much understand the doctrine. It addresses first use of NUCLEAR weapons, tactical AND strategic. There are different criteria to their respective use.

“Meaning she will not use a townbuster warheads at first place of course.”

Your comment is just shy of being coherent. But I assume that is due to your unfamiliarity with the English language.
But I commend you for trying to converse intelligently in a language not your own.

What I THINK you are saying is that Russia will not use a strategic nuclear weapon in a first-strike attack. I think Russia knows it would be a suicidal act to do so.

“It is about not all nukes but only big ones like 100KT and more. Got now?”

You’re wrong. This article addresses that:

“But those low-yield shells like 1Kt or less and strictly on a battlefield or near front line why not? It just like any other explosives but stronger.”

How naïve you are. It is a WMD, the use of which in Ukraine would be a profound escalation, and condemned worldwide, ESPECIALLY since there is no existential threat to Russia from Ukraine.

“DO you remember how during Cold War 1 NATO responded on Soviet Union numbers superiority in troops and tanks? They deployed more nuke missiles. Remember Pershing missiles?”

I remember them very well. But the key word there is DEPLOYED. There is a light-year’s difference between DEPLOYED and LAUNCHED or FIRED or USED.

“SO similar way here. Now NATO has number superiority so Russia must react accordingly.”

I repeat my comment in the sentence above: There is a light-year’s difference between DEPLOYED and LAUNCHED or FIRED or USED.

Yeah yeah very infamous western hypocrisy here))). Deployed but never launched that is what say me? Laughable.

And it is just total lie. If weapon is deployed then it must be launched for sure or else no sense to deploy it.

Don’t try to dupe because you will fail.

Again don’t post me an article of Reuters or any western sources. They ALL lie all day long. If you want to prove your point to do it using your own wit and common sense.
