    It seems pretty clear at this point that one of the principal lessons of the Russo-Ukrainian war is “Having nukes guarantees sovereignty”. It’s unfortunate because nukes are obviously pretty fucking bad, but even if they aren’t saying it, every nuke-less nation with a sketchy neighbor is trying to figure out a way to obtain strategic nuclear capabilities now, and anyone who was thinking about giving them up has stopped… and I can’t say I blame them.
