The United States spends 60 billion a year on maintaining its Nuclear weapons which have more than 10'000 different things to maintain.
Russia has a military budget of less than 10% of what the United States and is rife with corruption.
Russia has never tested a nuclear weapon the last test was back in the 80s under the USSR.
What are the chances any of these things even work anymore?
I believe the threat of World War 3 is all smoke and mirrors.
Vladimir Putin is not a nice man by any stretch of the imagination however he cannot afford to back down in Ukraine or forces inside Russia will depose him.
I think many in the West want this to happen.
My question is if Russia breaks up where does that leave us all especially in Europe?
