Putin won't start a nuclear war unless he is confident he would emerge victorious.
Right now, he would not win.
(Of course this could all change if Donald Trump is elected).
People are so used to thinking America is a superpower they don’t realize that Russia has the technology to wipe us off the map right now if they wanted. They’re far ahead in supersonic weaponry and our defenses would be useless. We need to stop thinking we can police the world. We can’t. We need a negotiator to solve these types of issues. I know one who would be perfect for the job…
As they know perfectly well there is no celebration day after.
All your claims on weapons and technology are systematically being proven pure Kremlin propaganda. Not even half of what Ruzzia claims in all aspects are they able to actually use it in the field. As of today, they are the second best army ... in Ukraine.
The bottom line is that you cannot allow a nuclear power to invade others at will "or else", because they would simply take that as a weakness. You can only negotiate with Ruzzians once you have shown that they cannot impose their will by force. It is simply much better and cheaper to stop
They guy you are thinking of thinks he is a great eveything...but has delivered nothing internationally other than chaos.
