ed is that Russia was aware to some extent of its own weakness and how quickly it would rely on the use of nuclear weapons to balance this weakness. Officially Russian nuclear policy for decades included a no-first-use policy, meaning it would only use them to retaliate against another nuclear or weapon of mass destruction attack.

Nuclear weapons would also be used if the existence of the Russian state itself was threatened in 2020 Vladimir Putin. eliminated the no-first-use policy and expanded Russia's nuclear policy to include retaliation for large-scale conventional attacks that caused critical damage to the Russian Federation, in a sense modern Russia has a policy of escalating and de-escalating use of a nuclear weapon even against massive conventional attacks in To de-escalate the conflict on terms favorable to itself, what few outside the Kremlin knew was how low the threshold for Russia's use of nuclear weapons really was.

Russian military files drawn up between 2008 and 2014 and despite being 10 years old at this point, analysts believe they are still very relevant, especially in light of Russia's dismal performance in Ukraine, the documents They detail the use of tactical nuclear weapons rather than larger strategic weapons intended for use in large military bases or cities.

Battlefield nuclear weapons, as they are often known, have significantly lower yields than strategic weapons and have often been scaled up or down as necessary, yet they remain very powerful weapons of mass destruction. During the Cold War, Western allies envisioned the use of tactical weapons. Nuclear weapons as a means of stopping the massive hordes of jammed Soviet armored vehicles that would reach West Germany in the event of war. The Soviets also saw tactical nuclear weapons as a way to level the playing field against increasingly sophisticated Western technology. The increasingly weakened Russia. Its position on the international stage has created a degree of despair and awareness about how uncompetitive the Russian military is against its traditional rival, the United States of America, after Desert Storm.

Soviet military planners panicked at the time Iraq had one of the world's largest armies and an extremely robust Soviet-built air defense network that saw it dismantled in a matter of weeks, as well as the collapse of the Iraqi forces in Soviet tanks and infantry fighting vehicles against superior American equipment caused a commotion. A wave swept through the Kremlin and immediately prompted the reworking of war plans in the event of a confrontation against NATO. It was clear that the only way to stop an American armored attack was with nuclear weapons as Russia emerged from the wreckage of the Soviet collapse. and the US and its allies only expanded the second US-led invasion of Iraq would once again sound alarm bells throughout the Kremlin the initial US contingent of 130,000 troops was inside Washington was even considered suicidal against the numerically superior Iraqi army still Lower-level commanders and analysts calling for more forces had significantly underestimated the enormous force multipliers the United States had developed in just 10 years after Desert Storm, against an estimated half a million troops , 4,000 tanks and 3,700 armored vehicles.

The United States suffered only 139 dead and 551 wounded compared to up to 45,000 Kia in Iraq, once again the Kremlin realized that it was completely and absolutely outmatched by the vastly superior conventional power of the United States. To rectify this, the threshold for the use of nuclear weapons would have to be significantly lowered or else the Russian Federation would quickly collapse. faced a NATO attack, but the leaked documents also show that it was not just the US and its NATO allies that worried Russia, but also its huge and increasingly powerful southern neighbor in Asia, including When Putin was trying to forge rapprochement ties with China, secret document leaks show the Kremlin was increasingly paranoid about a Chinese invasion of Russia;

Once again, nuclear weapons would be the first line of defense and there is good reason for Russia to fear an attack from China despite the seemingly warm relations between the two countries. Two before the war in Ukraine, Russia and China jointly declared a friendship without limits, but

when

Russia invaded Ukraine a few weeks later and began to lose heavily, China was quick to demonstrate that there were indeed firm limits to their friendship on February 25, 2022, China abstained. a UN Security Council vote denouncing the invasion and again on March 2 the nation abstained in a general assembly vote condemning Russian aggression and demanding the withdrawal of its troops.

Since then, China has walked a fine line between not alienating itself internationally by supporting Russia and ensuring the Russian war effort does not completely fail in disaster, even though China has a vested interest in seeing the Russian state itself collapse as it emerges from his century of humiliation. China is now looking back in time and finding ways to address past wrongs committed against it by European powers between 1858 and 1860, the Russian Empire annexed vast swaths of Chinese territory by imposing treaties on the United Kingdom. China initially refused to accept the demands, but its loss of the Second Opium War forced it to assert Russian annexation of territories known as Outer Manchuria.

China has not forgotten the humiliation of the treaties imposed on it and in 20123 the official Chinese cartographic agency published new maps with Chinese names for the annexed territories instead of Russian ones, it is not just a matter of boasting and boasting, although China itself Russia's control over its Far Eastern territory is weakening the ethnic Russian population has been declining year after year and is estimated to number 6 million Russians in the territory face nearly 40 million Chinese directly across the border. Chinese investments in the region are rapidly outpacing Russian investments. A situation aggravated by the weakening of Russia's budget and the exodus of Western capital from Russia.

With no other option, Russia was forced to try to replace. European and American investments with Chinese money; However, many in China see this as an opportunity to renegotiate the 1994 territorial agreement that officially ended sovereignty disputes between the two nations. As Chinese commentators have commonly said, why should Chinese money go to develop stolen Chinese money? land on behalf of Russia the leaked documents show how paranoid Russia has become about a Chinese incursion into the region the documents included training materials for the Eastern Russian Military District to fight a Chinese invasion with multiple different scenarios highlighted according to the different scenarios Included in the documents, if the Russian military failed to defeat the initial Invasion Force, then local commanders were called upon to use tactical nuclear weapons against the Chinese forces of the second Echelon to stop them in their tracks.

What is unknown is whether these nuclear strikes would be carried out once Chinese forces crossed the border or on Chinese soil, a difference that could dramatically escalate an exchange of tactical nuclear weapons to a full-scale strategic exchange after the leaks. From the documents, China's Foreign Ministry denied that there were tensions or hostilities between it and Russia. citing that the Treaty of Good Neighborhood, Friendship and Cooperation between China and Russia has legally established the concept of eternal friendship and non-enmity between the two countries and yet, despite this, China not only refused to provide military aid that Russia needed so much on May 18. 2023, on the same day as the G7 meeting in Hiroshima, China hosted its inaugural Central Asia Summit in China, inviting leaders from five Central Asian nations to attend these five nations.

Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Usbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan were all former republics and Soviet nations that Russia has historically seen. under its sphere of influence on May 18, Russia was humiliated by being left out of both the G7 and a Chinese-led meeting on its former Soviet territories and this was no accident as China has increasingly expanded its influence in Central Asia and works to dislodge Russia as dominant power in the region Chin investments in the region have soared to $70 billion by 2022 and Russia's regional trade is less than two-thirds of China's own trade with Central Asia ; However, the insecurity of the Russian military expands beyond just China predicting the dire situation. would be found if it had to go to war against the major conventional power, be it China or the United States.

The documents also detailed specific battlefield defeat conditions that would trigger the use of nuclear weapons. One of these conditions was the successful amphibious landing of an enemy force on the Russian mainland, the Russian Far East is difficult to defend given its vast expanses and how vulnerable Russian logistics are to getting troops into the region, the scenario would likely point directly to the United States, since it is incredibly likely that in the event of a full-scale war between them and the US, the US Marine Corps would launch an amphibious assault against the Folino headquarters of the Pacific Fleet of Russia and Vlad Diva's own stock, while Russia has railway connections to quickly move troops and equipment from its western military districts to the area where there is little hope that it can protect those railways from American air and missile attack, leaving its forces from the Far East stranded against superior US firepower.

In such a dire scenario, the use of nuclear weapons would be the only way to dislodge the US invasion force at a later stage. for the use of nuclear weapons would be the defeat of Russian border defenses similar to fears of a Chinese penetration the doctrine calls for the use of nuclear weapons in the event that an enemy force successfully penetrates Russia with nuclear weapons used to significantly attack follow-up forces and prevent a catastrophic advance, the world saw how poorly prepared Russia is to respond to enemy advances in the fall of 2022. Ukraine's counteroffensive, which saw the nation retake a vast swath of occupied territory in question weeks, the surprising counteroffensive was possible not only because of the Ukrainians' use of diversions, but also because the Russian military had failed to detect and identify a buildup of Ukrainian forces and respond quickly while under fire to a rapidly evolving advance.

How a nation with an Air Force the size of Russia could not prevent such a catastrophic collapse of the front lines remains a mystery, but it is indicative of the overall weakness of the Russian military. Another trigger for the escalation in the use of nuclear weapons is the loss of 20% of Russia's ballistic missile submarines or 30% of its attack submarines, both of which make sense since Russia would rely on its attack submarines to try to prevent that the United States reinforce Europe in the event of war or to prevent an invasion of its Pacific coast; The loss of its undersea portion of the Nuclear Triad is also an alarming proposition for Russia given the fact that there is virtually zero chance that a Russian nuclear bomber

will

ever successfully deliver its payload to an American city, with missile defenses With American ballistic missiles becoming increasingly powerful over time, the effectiveness of Russia's ballistic missile forces is also in serious doubt.

However, submarines allow the launch of weapons closer to enemy shores and from unpredictable locations, making interception is very unlikely. The loss of its ballistic missile submarines would leave Russia potentially vulnerable to a catastrophic nuclear attack that it could neither deter nor retaliate successfully, although what is more worrying is how quickly Russia is willing to use nuclear weapons in even lower-risk scenarios: the Loss of just three of its cruisers, three airfields, or a simultaneous attack on its main and coastal reserve command centers would trigger a nuclear response. This is worrying because there is no doubt that the US or even China would quickly sinkany Russian ship foolish enough to abandon the safety of ground-based air and missile defenses, and given that Russia has already lost one cruiser to Ukraine, this specific threshold is incredibly low, as is the loss of three airfields to attacking the enemy, the United States or China, would inevitably target Russian airfields to keep their Air Force grounded, although considering how many Russian aircraft have been shot down by Russian air defenses in Ukraine and inside Russia, it might be better if they simply allowed Russia operate its airfields.

The UNH harassed documents also describe several options for the use of nuclear weapons by commanders in order to avoid defeat on the battlefield or improve the effectiveness of the Russian Navy. The latter is likely aimed at destroying US and Chinese aircraft carriers which pose a significant threat to the Russian Navy and which it is generally unprepared to counter at this time, although the document itself hints at Russia's use of nuclear blackmail To obtain a degree of freedom in its actions, one of NATO's main concerns has been a target of an attack carried out against the Baltic states.

In such an attack, Russia would launch an attack against one or more of the Baltic states and seize a small amount of territory or would try to take its capitals, which most analysts predict the nation should be able to take. done before NATO firepower descends on the region, at least before the accession of Finland and Sweden into the alliance, such an attack would lead NATO to deliberate on the implementation of Article 5 in territories that some NATO states NATO, like Turkey or the United States, under the leadership of someone like former President Trump, may not consider the treaty worth complying with. obligations at the first sign of a major defeat, Russia would escalate rapidly to reduce tension in its favor, this would involve the sudden use of tactical or multiple nuclear weapons, either directly against NATO forces or in close proximity to them, causing little damage but testing the alliance's resolve NATO would then be forced to opt for one of two options: allow Russia to use battlefield nuclear weapons while sticking only to conventional weapons or simply accede to Russian demands and allow it to keep the territory it took from NATO, Russia would in fact be using nuclear weapons. weapons to blackmail other nations and give himself the freedom to do as he pleases, as long as he picks a fight he can win quickly and then goes on the defensive.

This reckless ideology is not only inherently dangerous but also dangerous because it encourages similar behavior by other nuclear nations. States like North Korea or perhaps even India and Pakistan, if their historic dispute escalated once again, the world would see a nuclear arms race on a truly global scale and it would be obvious to everyone that the only way to ensure security is In short, have your own nuclear weapons. Russ R's reckless nuclear policy is not only dangerous for enemies, but for everyone. Modern Russia, in a very real sense, has become the kid on the block who says what he says, can't back it up, gets punched. face and then returns with a gun, the revelation of the secret documents has called into question the West's appropriate reaction to Russia's aggression in Ukraine, given how low the nation's threshold is for using nuclear weapons, but At this turning point it is even more dangerous for the West to fail to react and thus set a precedent for nuclear blackmail.

Such a failure to confront Russian aggression would only encourage more aggression in the future, and if Ukraine fell, Europe would find the continent's largest and most experienced army on its doorstep and a Russian economy fully mobilized for war. , now visit us.
