It is obvious that Sweden, Denmark and Norway and Germany, Poland and of course Ukraine need nuclear weapons now.
They had been threatened by Russia with nuclear weapons and it looks like when push comes to shove the US is not going to defend them(go to ww3) using nuclear weapons.
Trump's actions about WW3 means that countries that have nukes are first class, and the rest are third class. It looks like a Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact in which nuclear countries divide the non nuclear's territories.
When Russia invaded Ukraine it had almost nobody defending the border, that was the reason of Kursk offensive success.
The official story was that "Russia had to defend itself from NATO invasion". In reality they knew nobody was going to invade a nuclear power not having nukes, while they could invade freely.
- Palmik 2y agoWhy these specifically? Why Poland and not Slovakia, Romania or Moldova that also neighbor Ukraine? These countries have much weaker conventional defenses than Poland, further increasing the importance of something like nuclear weapons. I would go even further. All countries that used to be part of the USSR and got violated by USSR for decades without any external help would be wise to develop at least the capability. In secret if need be.
