Putin's Nuclear Threats Over Kaliningrad Explained

Original: Why Putin Is Threatening Nuclear War Over Kaliningrad

Analysis published by The American Conservative examines why Vladimir Putin is raising the prospect of nuclear escalation in connection with Kaliningrad, the Russian exclave bordered by NATO members Poland and Lithuania. The piece argues the region's isolation between Western alliance states makes it a potential flashpoint, with tensions over the war in Ukraine feeding fears that a confrontation there could trigger dangerous nuclear rhetoric or worse.
