“Polish Foreign Minister @sikorskiradek says that the US has “very decisively” informed Russia that it will use conventional weapons “to destroy any Russian target in the occupied territories of Ukraine” if Russia launches a nuclear strike against Ukraine.”
Some Ukrainians are mad and think it is not enough, but that’s an ideal strategy really. It renders nukes useless for the goal of capturing even the tiniest piece of Ukraine. It also ensures that there is no worldwide nuclear holocaust. A balance between safety and international law enforcement.
Honestly, we can be happy the world is at least this just for Ukraine. If India nukes Pakistan, no one would give a fig.
But there are other aspects at play. Will russia believe US/Europe after they failed on so many promises? Will US/Europe not fail when it comes to nukes?
