And isn't there a vote being held today (?) which includes allowing Russia to site nuclear weapons in Belarus (as well, of course, as allowing Lukashenka to "rule" in perpetuity)? |  |

NATO has been expanding for the last 25 years without this level of reaction. I guess the increasing sanctions coupled with lack of success in Ukraine itself is putting him under pressure. |  |

Most of the EU is closing airspace to all Russian planes from tonight. And most lessors are recalling all leased planes in Russia. Basically they now have no commercial airline industry as most planes are leased from European companies. |  | |  |

Putin places his nuclear forces on “special regime of duty” on 14:30 - Feb 27 by jeera | I'm sure you don't know the answer but thinking out loud and all that... I wonder what the process is in Russia with regards to unleashing that level of destruction upon other nations. I would assume here and the US there will be several levels of security and agreement to go through before launching a nuclear weapon, but at the same time I suppose if it's in response to another nuclear attack there's not much time to mess about so the protocol would be considerably different to that of striking first. |
Each side knows if there is even a sniff of a nuclear launch and there is some level of ‘escalation’ But yes, Russians would have less checks and balances The only ones taking the nuclear threat seriously is the media and Russian sycophants right now. It’s a step too far even for Putin |  | |  |
Putin places his nuclear forces on “special regime of duty” on 18:16 - Feb 27 with 1044 views | OldFart71 | I would think that the nuclear system that they use would be similar to other Countries with nuclear capabilities, in that not just one person can push the button. Would anyone be stupid enough to use nuclear weapons knowing full well that any firing of these missiles would be detected and he would receive a similar response. I don't think Putin is mad. But he's pretty pissed off about the response of his invasion of Ukraine by a majority of the rest of the World as he see's Ukraine as part of Russia and not as it is, an independent state. |  | |  |

It’s not just missiles, it could be as ‘easy’ as lobbing some nuclear shells out of a tank gun. Presumably they are under some kind of lock and key, but still…. |  | |  |
