Another installment in “I don’t get that they don’t get this” from me:
My problem is not that these threats are empty. My problem is that they are fundamentally self-defeating.
Russia has always had a nuclear doctrine that they will use nukes if they are directly attacked. We know it, they know we know it. That’s why they know as well as we do that ain’t nobody attacking Russia.
The US and NATO have a nuclear containment doctrine that more or less goes, “do not negotiate with anyone who threatened nuclear strikes, because if you do, everyone will try it on.” The Russians KNOW this. We have the Kim family to thank for that policy.
This kind of pronouncement is guaranteeing that NATO will stay in the war until the end. Why do they keep doing it? They cannot possibly be this stupid. I swear to God, every time they mention nuclear weapons, there’s a “six months before we can sit down and talk to the Kremlin” calendar that in Brussels that reset to zero.
