Sorry, but Russia is a credible threat that keeps killing people in Ukraine and threatens going nuclear.

China is betting on us rather pivoting than engaging with Russian army. If we seem tough enough, we call it.

We can then also negotiate better rate for the US protection racket, becauss the US fuckers decided to more than double the rate recently and we are unhappy about that. Long term we will rearm ourselves on our own terms.

Of course they threaten going nuclear.

Every country that has nuclear weapons has them because of the threat of using them.

If a state would say "we will never, in no circumstance, ever use these weapons" then why spend the money to have them in the first place?

USA, pakistan, russia, france, india and so on… they all have these weapons to threaten using them.
