As abhorrent as it sounds, if the Russian government authorizes use of nuclear weapons, it might only be exclusively to get Ukraine to surrender and end the war on Russian terms. I don't think their designs will be to go nuclear on rest of Europe.

That's just the nuclear salami method. Declare you're only using nukes locally and everyone else better not piss you off. Take that slice. Repeat.

Nuclear salami doesn't work on NATO territory, so we can assume that is an unlikely scenario... But, hey, what do you know... if Putin is really as unhinged as the Western media claims him to be. As for me, I can't bring myself to trust the Western media in the times of war. Not after the farce that was WMD.
