>> No one sane in Europe is interested to start a war with Russia.

Sane, no, but Macron for instance suggested the West should send boots on the ground in Ukraine, and while he's clearly unhinged he was until recently the President of the second most powerful EU country and an important nuclear Nato member (although French people I've met were dismissive about the French nuclear deterrent; "it can bleach corals", I was told).

And don't forget that the far right (to put it politely) is rising in Europe, including in France and in Germany were they are the second most powerful political power and possibly soon the first in France. Do you know what happened last time the far right was rising in Europe?

When we're talking about nuclear war as a possible future I don't think it hurts to hedge al the bets ever.
