„Putin spielt mit unseren Ängsten“ – deutscher Außenminister zur aktualisierten Atomdoktrin Russlands

Correct

All of this is so beyond the pale of being late. If this was honestly your opinion, why did Olaf refuse Taurus missiles to Ukraine? Germany wants to have it both ways and that is why their government is currently in a state of disaster.

Now because the US gave the goahead they want to appear strong.

Putin is playing with fire. Play with fire and you’ll get burned.

Sure, because he’s covering up his own failure and insecurities.
It’s called projection of a bully, yet another “Look at what you made me do”.
He could just stop and rework his precious economy… but that somehow makes his fragile ego look weak.

>*The revised doctrine expands scenarios that could justify a nuclear strike, including “aggression against the Russian Federation and its allies by a non-nuclear state with the support of a nuclear state”*

Because it was “totally fair” for a nuclear state to terrorize a non-nuclear state (with the help of drones, golfcarts and “volunteers” from other nuclear states) while they vowed to protect sovereignty and territorial borders of other UN members.

He’s not because nobody is really afraid.
He’s too vain to risk losing everything.

China is laughing pretty hard at all this I guess

Give them some fear back. 

Moscow should be a big, flat, glow-in-the-dark piece of black glass for thousands of years if they deploy even one nuke, anywhere.

It’s time for Germany and Poland to start threatening east Prussia, at this point the war’s gonna escalate no matter what, better take preemptive action and at least try to push Putler into negotiating.

So I take it it takes almost 3 years to get a clue for these people?

“Speaking at a news conference in Poland during a meeting of foreign ministers from Germany, Poland, France, and Italy, Baerbock emphasized that Berlin would heed warnings from Ukraine’s neighboring countries.

“We will not let ourselves be intimidated,” she said, adding that this is not the first time the Kremlin has resorted to nuclear threats.”

If Putin ordered a nuclear strike, would the Russian military high command obey the order?

China would never support Russia using nukes.

My Spanish penpal wrote me this morning very afraid. Then again, she is convinced that Trump will be the best president and she is glad he talks to Putin because that is how things get fixed. My grasp of Spanish is not good enough to explain the severity of trumps crimes or prevent evidence he is not strongly negotiating with Putin….

Germany would do well to have Baerbock as their next Chancellor.

he is not dropping any nukes any time soon …
he is waiting for trump and.
like all cry bullies , ultimately , they are cowards .
sometimes biden almost seems wily , others … not so much .

I mean, Russia lobbing threats of launching nukes for whatever reason as if their biggest ally, China, wouldn’t immediately call Putin to ask him what the fuck is he doing, and as if the US, France and the UK would just let Russia use nukes without retaliation.

He’s bluffing. If he nukes his neighbors, he nukes his own.

It is the same every single time. The west does something – Russia threatens nuclear retaliation. Repeat 

Putin threatening nuclear retaliation is no different than Hamas hiding behind women and children to hurl missiles. The world needs to unite against terrorism.

Coercion ” the practice of persuading someone to do something by using force or threats.”

He’s not gonna use those, in two months he’s about to get handed all the taken territory and maps frozen as is why the hell pick a pissing match with Biden who will answer nukes with nukes? You don’t use the nuclear option if you’re winning.
