Yes. Definitely. At the start of the war Biden promised to stay out, now NATO countries (with implicit approval from D.C.) are scrambling to supply arms and fighters to Ukraine. This is an escalation and will be answered by Russian nukes. Hope I'm proven wrong, though, and hotheads from Brussels manage to back down gracefully.
To anyone delusional enough to call Putin irrational/bluffing/terminally ill: this is not about Putin. Beltway policy wonks have been talking about this for a decade - Russian army went through a _doctrinal_ shift that drew the lines Putin was talking about and simultaneously offered a possible solution in terms of nuclear demonstrative actions.
