Putin is Tempted to Cross 'This' Line. Will He Do It? China is Concerned - The Russian Dude‬ [View all]



Putin was talking about 'this' decision and crossing 'this' line almost monthly since the beginning of war. But he never dared to cross it. After Ukraine's successful incursion into Kursk, the same question appeared again. The incursion itself was a major gamble by Ukrainian Army. A gamble, that paid off in full. Putin is now tempted to cross 'this' line even more. But his nuclear blackmail no longer works. Will Putin ever use nukes? Because China and India are concerned. And what is the future role of nuclear weapons in this war?
