> Do you consider the buzzfeed article "official declaration of countries"?

No.

> If two countries nuked each other and one complained more, would it matter?

For me, yes, the official statements on the nuking countries would matter.

Why though?

Countries make statements for internal audiences, external, etc. They're hardly a good indicator of much of anything.

Let alone that you'd be basing your opinion about what they said, not what they did.

I base my opinions on a multitude of factors including and with giving great importance to what is being said. It’s easier for me to identify a lie from what is said and done at the source than from some 3rd party conspiracy machination.

OK, It's hard to tell as most of your focus is on who says what here.

> than from some 3rd party conspiracy machination.

I've no idea what that means.
