Ukraine war: World must act now to stop Russia nuclear threat - Zelensky

No chance that Russia will nuke Ukraine's towns and cities - there is a sizeable population of Russians in urban areas right across Ukraine.

 

Russia might nuke an out-of-the-way corner of the countryside as a warning though.  They could have done that in the beginning, which is proof that Russia is actually pulling its punches and opting first to fight it out mano a mano. 

 

By the way, for those above who don't yet understand, liberating the Donbass, most of which is majority-Russian, is what this war is all about that. The way to resolve this war is to consider the demographics and history of the Donbass (and Crimea while you're at it). Something the west has so far refused to do.

The majority of the people in Donbas are ethnic Russians. They are not Russian nationals. It doesn't mean that just because they are ethnic Russians that they want their portion of Ukraine to become part of Russia. Of course, it is open to ethnic Russians to move to Russia should they so choose. They already have citizenship there. I doubt there would be many takers.
