Every Russian white paper stresses the use of nuclear weapons if Russia’s interests are threatened in it’s sphere of interest.

So why did the Soviets not use them in 1989?

Ask Mikhail Gorbachev, not me. I would assume he knew how rotten the Soviet system was.

“So why did the Soviets not use them in 1989? “

Because nobody was invading them or engaged with their military?
