6·8 days ago- If Russia could have pulled that one before, they would have. They’ve already broken every and any international laws, conventions, etc. that were in their way. The only reason they’ve not used nukes is most likely because China would instantly turn their back on them, and they can’t afford that.
- Ukraine is under threat of annihilation and they never got half the support they needed from their allies. Everything you point about “long term issue” is secondary to them because if they don’t keep that technological advance on Russia, they won’t exist to see that “long term issue” anyway. You want them to keep some reasonable limit? Write to whatever representative you have in your country and ask for a massive and immediate support to Ukraine. Had they done that on day1, the war would have been over for years and we wouldn’t have seen that massive technological “progress” in military equipment.
- Nukes were invented during a high intensity war, used, and then countries got reasonable enough to not use them again (so far…). Chemical weapons were invented then banned. Problematic weapons do get banned, though the rules are not always followed. That’s why we need international laws, conventions, etc. These past years they were all but thrown away by a few countries without any consequences, therefore, don’t expect any kind of holding back on terminator drones. They were to happen no matter what, and Ukraine just had the right conditions to be the first to get them. I would be very surprised if Israel was not already working on it.
