    honestly think he’s bluffing at this point. why would he use nukes and risk reprisal when Russia is honestly in a better state military production wise than NATO?

    edit: to be clear, I would really rather not find out lol

      I hope he’s bluffing but when it comes to these matters it seems you have to take it seriously. Threats like these don’t work if you believe they won’t follow through on it. I only say this because we learned about nuclear war strategies in my PoliSci class yesterday and my professor mentioned this Putin speech. He seems quite worried about escalation and so am I.
