Allies see risk that Putin thinks he can win a nuclear war against NATO

"Nuclear war is impossible to be won. ... This is the rule of warfare, that, actually, it’s the last resort," a senior European official said. "But, unfortunately, Russians actually somehow behave too lightly about it. And that causes the biggest trouble for us."
