Looking at it, the initial detonation didn't seem bright enough. But it did appear in the low range for a very small tactical nuke.
But it does make you think, if you were the Ukraine....would you have REALLY given up all the nukes? They originally gave them up for promises about their border security from us and the Russians. With the Rebels getting ready for a big push....and claims by the Ukrainians that Russia used some small tactical nukes earlier..... ??They?ll ridicule us?: Ukraine defense minister ?claims? Russia used nukes ? RT News
Overall we're seeing some truly large explosions, with some impressive weaponry.....but I dont think we are seeing any nukes used yet. That being said it also would not surprise me if the Ukraine had a couple stashed.
Since Russia is heavily involved in this, at what point would actually using small tactical nuclear weapons be reasonable for the Ukraine? And what would be the worlds reactions?
Interesting topic ... I haven't even thought about it but I'll try to wing a thought together
If I were in the Ukraine, I would be furious at NATO right now. I think that goes without saying.
I don't think I would've given them up. The US hasn't shown very much interest in limiting Russian power since Putin took office. Plus, considering the two wars we're in ... I would be worried that the US hands would be too tied in those wars to come to my defense when needed.
If they stashed one, I doubt they'd use it. How would they deploy it and where? Would they be willing to detonate it in their own lands?

They had over 1,000 of them before the treaty. With reasonably good delivery systems.
You can certainly get big explosions from chemicals, this is a rocket fuel plant going up. The first explosion is big but the second one is absolutely astounding.
Nor does there seem to be any embarrassment about both NATO and the U.S. jointly/separately reneging on treaty agreements. No surprise there.
Riiggghhhttt...like the Bamster cares about treaties.
Ukraine is being depopulated - by war in the east and by economic catastrophe in the west. In the end it will be the largest ethnic cleansing of all time. Funded by the Americn taxpayer and brought to you by George Soros.
