Default Escalate to De-escalate

A brief piece on the growing possibility of Russia using a battlefield tactical nuke in Ukraine.

The gist of it is, Russia probably won't use nuclear weapons to try to win the war (i.e. defeat the UAF)- although that's still a possible Russian goal. Instead, Putin might employ tac-nukes in an effort to quickly "freeze the conflict", and secure a stronger position at the bargaining table.
