@@farebasedmessiah5261 The nuclear weapons are just there to defensively posture. Any time they fumble, Putin has to remind the world Russia has nuclear armament so rival countries don't get too confident, sort of like "I've got the off switch, stay back! I'll do it. Don't come any closer!". If Putin was at all serious about using them, the world would have been glass the day Ukraine entered Kursk.

[@haruruben]

@ Russia doesn’t have a nuclear arsenal. They had one a long time ago but they haven’t maintained it. Recently when they tried to test their ICBM missile it blew up underground in its silo. Russia is a failed state and barely a country at this point. Very weak
