“Nuclear-weapon states should negotiate and conclude a treaty on no-first-use of nuclear weapons against each other or make a political statement in this regard,” Sun said.

China and India are currently the only two nuclear powers to formally maintain a no first use policy. Russia and the United States have the world’s biggest nuclear arsenals.

    Fewer nuclear threats, lmao.

    Names a different country and dismisses explicit nuclear escalations, lmao

    Names someone who is not currently leader of Russia, and hasn’t been for 24 years, lmao

    Imagines that the Soviet Union didn’t have internal issues except those caused by the us, lmao

    This is your brain on tankie. “The nuclear power has no agency to make better choices whatsoever, how could the west do this”

    Gosh why do I just not feel bad for poor ol putin here? Real head scratcher.

    Lmao.

      I am explaining history and context of Russia’s no-first-use policy and the specific instances that caused them to change it and how the leaders who changed it remain in power. You are dismissing it because I am not starting and ending at “russia bad, does bad things”

      The nuclear power isn’t making worse choices, they’re responding to external and internal circumstances.
