Russian President Vladimir Putin and Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko will meet on Sunday, the Kremlin said, two days after Moscow warned that any aggression against the its neighbour and staunchest ally would be considered an attack on Russia.
I don’t think Putin will attack Poland or anyone in NATO, nor do I think he will use nukes as long as he doesn’t risk losing everything.
But we should always assume that he will use nukes if he gets desperate.
No we shouldn’t. We can think that’s a possibility, but assuming that he will is simply bad policy.
Also, he can’t simply “press the red button” because he gets upset.
