- "In nuclear parlance, escalate to de-escalate refers to the tactical use of nuclear weapons for battlefield gains before de-escalating". This phrase is used to describe the use of nuclear weapons to compel an adversary to concede without actually deploying them on the battlefield.
This somewhat explains President Trump's deploying nuclear submarines near Russia with nuclear-capable Tomahawk cruise missiles which Putin is known to fear.
IOWs, a "nuclear-capable" Tomahawk still differs from a nuclear equipped Tomahawk. A conventional Tomahawk can hit the Kremlin or other vital strategic infrastructure. However, this is old school rhetoric as hypersonics and Oreshnik has changed the rules of the game. All of Germany can be easily Oreshniked, and the next logical development is for Russia to enhance its capabilities to strike Washington, D.C. and America.
I don't know why people were surprised about the Russian reaction to the war America started in 2014 with the Maidan coup. Biden told you as much he was taking America to war with Russia even before Tulsi Gabbard confirmed the lies about Russian infrastructure attacks. RobSZelensky Must Go! 18:46, August 2, 2025 (EDT)
