    There’s a big chance the West doesn’t just retaliates against Russia but at the same time launches to China and North Korea, so it’s in everyone’s best interest to not launch any nukes. You can imagine China getting a bit antsy every time Putin talks nukes in such a scenario.

      Russia using a nuke and the West then retaliating against a couple of countries is too stupid even for a Seagal movie. How did you get this idea?
