And Ukraine is not in NATO.  And Republic of China is not in NATO.  So, NATO is not being attacked.

And no country would dare attack Russia, why ?  Because Russia has got nukes. 
NATO has got nukes, that's why NATO (NATO, that includes Britain) will never be attacked. I said Britain should be defended. I'm saying, if Russia attacks/invades Britain, then NATO must nuke Russia, no two ways about it. As soon as Russia does any attack on Britain, yes, America must launch it's nukes (nukes in America, and elsewhere) onto Russia. That's because Britain is in NATO.

And when/if China invades Republic of China, no country would dare attack China, why ?  Because China, just like Russia, just like NATO, has got nukes.   ????

Your logic is faulty. 

The MAD principle doesn't say a nuclear power would not shoot at or fight another nuclear power. It says a  nuclear power would not use nukes to destroy another nuclear power because they in turn would be destroyed.

Today's problem is that Putin, and possibly Xi, may wish to return the world the untenable era of territorial and human conquest to satisfy whatever they crave. There is no reason that Russia could not have used the last 20 years to build friendly, strong, and mutually beneficial relationships with Ukraine and the world. Except for Putin's backwards Hitlerish style, which the world including China must reject.
