Another day, another threat of nuclear retaliation against the West by Putin.

Realistically, if Russia were to launch missiles against European capitals, how long a warning would the inhabitants get? What about North America (USA, Canada)?

Does NATO have the capability of in-flight interception? Or other defense mechanisms?

How deep underground is safe to protect against a modern nuclear blast?

Stay safe y’all.

    The difference is that unlike Ukraine, the West is entirely capable of making enough Russians hurt in retaliation that even if Putin survives the exchange he’s looking at going the way of the Romanovs once the survivors outside the bunkers get to him.

      A nuclear exchange on that scale would kill 300 million people instantly and another 5 BILLION over the next decade.

      Nobody wins.
