"They never actually justified the use of nuclear weapons themselves but they have enough of them to turn a hundred cities to salt, all at once, all across the globe."

Russia would not be allowed to hit a hundred cities with nukes. If Russia launched nukes, though, all Russian nuclear facilities and other military facilities would be shot out of existence, and Russia would no longer be a nuclear threat. The world would celebrate and live in relative peace.

Russia would only be enlarging its bad public affairs reputation by attempting to launch nukes. Nukes don't turn cities to salt.

They are also slowly becoming truly independant. We are creating a nightmare.

Back off US.
