If we see nukes positioned in Belarus as a threat to Europe, then the USSR, and now Russia, would have seen western nukes positioned in Europe as threats.
So if we want to point fingers at "who started it", clearly the USA started threatening first by positioning nukes in many nations in Europe, and Russia's action is just a decades-delayed response.
Capisce?
Try for once in your life, Signym, to understand the difference between using words threatening to nuke everybody and NOT threatening to nuke anybody. I don't think you will get the subtleties because then you would realize what Russia has been doing wrong since its first above-ground A-bomb tests.

Russian milbloggers continue to highlight reported superior Russian electronic warfare (EW) capabilities as key to disrupting Ukrainian attacks. Russian milbloggers claimed that Russian EW units are disrupting Ukrainian communications as well as aviation units and alleged that some Ukrainian mechanized groups were not prepared to fight without communications or with suppressed GPS.[10] Another milblogger claimed that Ukrainian forces attempted their own “electronic counter measures” against Russian reconnaissance and control capabilities in areas where there are Ukrainian assaults but that these attempts were unsuccessful.[11] Russian forces have reportedly successfully improved their EW use throughout the invasion of Ukraine.[12]
Russian sources claimed that Ukrainian forces have tactical advantages in conducting assaults at night due to Western-provided equipment with superior night optics systems. A prominent Russian milblogger claimed that Ukrainian forces are launching assaults at night because Western-provided equipment provides Ukrainian forces with “excellent” night vision optics.[13] Zaporizhia Oblast occupation official Vladimir Rogov also claimed that night assaults allow Ukrainian forces to more effectively use Western-provided equipment.[14] Russian sources have widely claimed that Ukrainian forces have started or intensified assaults at night in recent days, and Ukrainian forces may be increasingly leveraging the advantages provided by Western systems.[15]
Russian sources continue to highlight the role of scarce military district-level Russian TOS-1A thermobaric artillery systems against Ukrainian attacks, though Ukrainian forces destroyed at least two of these key systems in recent days. Geolocated footage published on June 8 and 9 confirms that Ukrainian forces have used Western precision munitions (reportedly the Paladin 155mm artillery system) to destroy at least two Russian TOS-1A thermobaric artillery systems – highly destructive but scarce artillery assets controlled at the Russian military district level – in western and eastern Zaporizhia Oblast during the Ukrainian counteroffensive.[16] The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) highlighted the role of Russian thermobaric artillery systems in striking Ukrainian positions on the western Zaporizhia Oblast frontline.[17] A Russian milblogger claimed that Russian thermobaric artillery units have consistently fired on Ukrainian forces on the Donetsk-Zaporizhia Oblast administrative border and in western Zaporizhia Oblast for the past several days and characterized the units as essential to repelling Ukrainian frontal assaults.[18] Russian forces’ apparent reliance on specific artillery assets is noteworthy, as precision Ukrainian strikes on these systems could potentially complicate Russian defensive capabilities and Russian forces are unlikely to possess enough TOS-1A systems to provide the same level of fire support all along the front line.
Ukrainian forces are currently attempting an extraordinarily difficult tactical operation – a frontal assault against prepared defensive positions, further complicated by a lack of air superiority – and these initial assaults should not be extrapolated to predict all Ukrainian operations. Ukrainian forces are unsurprisingly taking casualties in initial attacks against some of the best-prepared Russian forces in Ukraine. However, initial attacks – and particularly selected footage that Russian sources are intentionally disseminating and highlighting – are not representative of all Ukrainian operations. The Russian military remains dangerous and Ukrainian forces certainly face a hard fight, but Ukraine has not yet committed the vast majority of its counteroffensive forces and Russian defenses are not uniformly strong along all sectors of the front line.

knowing that person was threatening is one thing.
knowing that they purchsed a weapon is something else.
but knowing that they SHOT A COUPLE OF PEOPLE ALREADY... well. that's a whole different story.
so, who bombed hiroshima and nagasaki, again?

Indeed.
The clock ticks for Ukraine and NATO.
According to people who analyze such things, the USA military didn't send its older Bradley fighting vehicles, it sent its newest. And the USA sent its latest version of Patriot missiles. Now the USA is promising MORE multi-billion dollars-worth of Patriot missiles and M777 rockets. (And we probably sent latest-version M777 howitzers and HIMARS too.)
Germany didn't send their older Leopard tanks, the sent their latest version. UK didn't send their oldest version of Challenger 2 tanks, they apparently sent their newest. F-sixteens (apparently a few keys on this keyboard just bonked including the number six) have been promised. And, based on the # of armored vehicles destroyed so far, usa and NATO have sent in far more weapns than we admit. We (USA, NATO) are hemorrhaging weapons into Ukraine.
NATO will meet on Monday to decide what to do with Ukraine. They could decide to speed up Ukraine's accession into NATO. They could decide to send in eastern European (i.e. Polish) troops, which will invetibaly lead to USA boots on the ground. They could just decide to empty their armories and treasuries into Ukraine.
The funny thing is, I have a sneaking suspicion this is all according to Russia's plan (or one them, anyway. Russia apparently doesn't have "a" plan, it has a number of contingencies.)
Russia knows it's not fighting "Ukraine".
To all intents and purposes, Ukraine doesn't even exist anymore except as a source of bodies for NATOs proxy-war weapons. It has no production, it collects no taxes, it would cease to operate the moment the cash flow stopped.
It's easy to see how Russia could demilitarize Ukraine. It was harder to see how Russia could demilitarize NATO. But with NATOs help, it can be done. All NATO needs to do is keep bleeding more and more into its proxy battlefield. Do you recall how Russia refused to close off the cauldron around Bakhmut? Ukraine's obssession with Bakhmut - sending in more and more (mostly untrained) infantry - allowed Russia to successfully conduct what Russians literally called "Operation Meatgrinder'
Russia KNOWS it's fighting NATO. And I suspect that Ukraine is Bakhmut writ large. As long as NATO keeps sending in weapons at a rate slow enough for them to be destroyed, Russia will slowly demilitarize NATO as well as Ukraine. And that seems to be the case. one of the worst things that coul

Quote:Signym, you bring up Hiroshima. Too bad you forget that Russia murdered 4 million Ukrainians during Holodomor without using any high-tech. And you forget the 62 million Russians killed by Russians during political disputes. Russians murder Russians as policy, so when Russians threaten to nuke the West, as Russia has threatened thousands of times, the US believes Russia and then spends $10 trillion on nuclear weapons to dissuade Russia from killing the West.

Quote:Millions of Chinese soldiers are "needed" to fight in Russian President Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine as Kyiv launches its long-awaited counteroffensive, Russian state TV host Olga Skabeyeva recently said.

As Russia's military grapples with Ukraine's latest attempt at reclaiming occupied land, Skabeyeva, host of the Russian TV program 60 Minutes, offered one solution to bolster its military.
During a recent episode of the show, she called for millions of Chinese troops to join the Russia-Ukraine war. Skabeyeva pointed to the recent battles in Russia's Belgorod region where Putin's forces have reportedly struggled in recent weeks as to why Moscow needs more soldiers.
"Don't dismiss two or three million Chinese soldiers. That's what is needed now. I look at Belgorod region and think how much we lack a Chinese people's liberation army," she said.
Despite this call from Skabeyeva, China has not indicated that it plans to send troops into Russia—which would be viewed as a massive escalation of the conflict.
Newsweek reached out to the Chinese Foreign Ministry for comment via email.

And America killed an estimated 5-6 million indirectly in our "War on Terror" across the Mideast.
So, what's your point, again? Gonna bring up more bogus figures about how many Russians Russia killed?
Ok, how many native Americans did America kill? How many slaves?
Seriously dood, if your real heartburn is about nukes, stick with nukes. (America's record on nukes and treaties: THE AGGRESSOR)
If your heartburn is about # of people that each nation killed, stop bringing bogus numbers to the table, and start assessing OUR record across the globe.
