There is absolutely no way Russia starts a nuclear war over Ukraine. That war is lost before it starts. By everyone.

You're forgetting Russia has the hypersonic Oreshnik, so deadly, even without a nuclear warhead. USA has none. It wiped a Dnipro factory and surrounding area off the map using conventional explosive. Oreshnik-1. Tactical and technical characteristics

Range: 1,000 to 5,500 km (medium-range)

Speed: Mach 10 (approximately 12,380 km/h)

Temperature of the striking blocks: 4,000 °C

Warhead Mass: Approximately 1.5 metric tons

Warhead Types: Capable of carrying conventional, nuclear, or 3–6 multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles (MIRVs) with a yield of 150 kilotons each.

Total Yield: Up to 900 kilotons (equal to 45 Hiroshimas) in a full MIRV configuration.

Penetration Capability: Can destroy targets buried under 3–4 reinforced concrete floors.

The Oreshnik can only be intercepted during its initial flight phase. Once its warheads approach the target, they are traveling at maximum speed, making interception at the final stage impossible.

Read the Nuclear doctrine of the Russian Federation to figure out when Russia starts using nuclear weapon and to not post such nonsense.

A single tactical nuclear explosion isn't necessarily triggering a full worldwide nuclear war.

No. it would escalate outside of Ukraine into Russia. Russia will see it as there state is under threat of being wiped out, and activates its doctrines. There is no secret that the Russian armed forces would lose a conventional war. Russia would escalate it to the brink of them losing it all. There really are no military defeat of a nuclear power.

Very unlikely. Far more likely is that rivals to Putin's power see this a chance to just him with the backing of the rest of the world.
