What we saw with Venezuela was something nukes wouldn't prevent. Doing the same with Putin is infinitely harder, but if it did occur, chances are whoever fills in the power vacuum in Russia would be pretty happy with their situation.

With nukes "chances are" is not an argument.

Yeah, that was actually a good demonstration of a way out of Russian aggression. I wonder if that was one of the goals.

Scare Putin to shievers. Bro already spent the first year of the 2022 invasion in a bunker. I'm sure he liked that.
