10. As to putin succeeding in making us unsure, even before his statement there was already concern

Various Biden people, including Blinken were already being asked if they should fear use of nuclear weapons. Biden ' s comment was in keeping with those responses.

It is the fact that Putin HAS the ability to use nuclear weapons that makes this a very tricky situation. If you consider both the Obama response to Russia invading Crimea as they denied doing so and Biden's response to Russia invading Ukraine, you can see everything was muted due to Russia being a nuclear power. In fact, you can go back to the GWB years when Russia invaded Georgia.
