If I were the Russians I would still be concern about the US installing offensive missiles in Poland under cover of missile defence. After all, the sites will be 100% under US control.

I don't understand why the US would want to consider nuking Russia. It almost made sense, in a bonkers way, when the USSR was still stomping on countries. But now - what would it achieve?

Presumbaly someone in the Pentagon still thinks Russia could be planning a first strike. But if so, there doesn't seem to be any evidence at all for that view.
