Russia sure likes to warn us about the unfortunate consequences if someone starts lobbing nukes around Europe. But Russia is the only state issuing nuclear threats.
Putin's fluffer enthusiastically at work:
Russia's former president and an ally of President Vladimir Putin said in remarks published [at the end of February] that the continued arms supply to Kyiv risks a global nuclear catastrophe, reiterating his threat of nuclear war over Ukraine.
If Russia doesn't launch any nukes there will be no nuclear war. NATO has no need to initiate nuclear weapons use. Why is Medvedev speaking to the rest of us about the threat that only Russia makes?
Really, this constant nuclear threat just makes it look like Russia is getting its ass kicked on the battlefield.
And all things considered, Medvedev has a lot of nerve making those threats, no?
Gosh, remember when Medvedev was considered a moderate, modern alternative to Putin?
Hacked Russian TV and radio stations broadcast startling messages of a nuclear attack and urged residents to put on gas masks and run for cover.

UPDATE: Did I mention the enthusiasm?
On Monday, March 20, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, according to Newsweek's Isabel Van Brugen, implied that Putin could retaliate against the Netherlands/Hague-based ICC by attacking it with a hypersonic missile.
NOTE: TDR Winter War of 2022 continues here.
