  1. The nuclear weapons won't have any effect on the ground, Russia has had nuclear weapons since day 1. And even if Wagner hadn't burned all of its bridges with the Russian government, it couldn't even get close to Kiev. It took 8 months of grinding fighting to take the destroyed city of Bahkmut, whereas Kiev has been completely fortified since the initial strike on Kiev failed, and its protected by swamps, radioactive forest, and urban/suburban terrain. Russia tried to go on the offensive this last winter on 5 different fronts and it utterly failed on all of them with the exception of the pyrrhic victory at Bahkmut, which was ultimately not strategically important. Russia has no capacity to seriously threaten Kiev

  2.  @keithelliston  Wagner has always been dependent on the Russian military. Wagner might have bodies (thanks largely to access to Russian prisons), but it needs a constant amount of ammunition to go on any serious offensive. Thats why when fighting for Bahkmut Prigozhin was publicly complaining about not being given enough ammunition and equipment. And again, it took 8 months of grinding to take a strategically negligible town of Bahkmut, meanwhile Kiev has been completely fortified. Ukraine is already well prepared for a strike on Kiev, which Russian and/or Wagner has no capacity to seriously threaten

  3. Lmao what? The US isn't the one building artificial islands in the south china sea, threatening to invade Taiwan every other week, or sending thinly veiled coast guard ships into its neighbors territorial waters and bullying fishermen out of their own waters.
