Russia is now playing the escalation strategy here: can't win the war in Ukraine so they seemingly recklessly escalate to unacceptable crisis levels and then negotiate for overall political solution.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Wanting is not have put, that's a relief for today.
This can be deterred but it can get Seriously Tense if the weapon is loaded on a rocket and ready to go.

Finland has ~73% forest coverage = 222,180 square kilometers of forests (world bank study). Our forests are densest in the world, averaging 72,000 trees in sq km. That's 22 billion trees or 4,500 for every Finn (yale university study).
