I really hope it doesn't come to that as escalation will be fast, but if they keep being strung along and not being given means to end the war there might not be another choice =(

Or Russia decides eating a nuke isn't worth it because they know what launching a nuke from Russia would mean.

Very possible, but putins crazy.

I don't know how Ukraine would convince Russia the threat is real without at least a test detonation somewhere and that's better than bombing someone, but also not ideal.

He wants people to think he's crazy when it comes to nukes because that makes his empty threats seem scary.
