Ukraine’s unilateral nuclear decision could have been us - Brian Monteith

We are now at the 18th day of Vladimir Putin’s war on the Ukrainian people and their government, which in itself tells its own story of the Kremlin leader’s failure.

Would Putin have dared make his move had he known just how difficult it would be to achieve military objectives that could allow him to claim victory?

As this war drags on there is a growing risk the Russian president becomes impatient as his humiliation mounts. He may then choose to escalate his “military operation” to a level that makes it even more ridiculous to deny to his people he has started a war.
