Tensions between India and Pakistan escalated sharply on Thursday, as the Pakistani government said it would consider it “an act of war” if India followed through on a threat to block the flow of crucial rivers as punishment for a deadly militant attack in Kashmir.
Don’t these two countries have nukes? 2025 is a shitshow
It is good they both have nukes, as that would mean it is suicide(MAD-Mutually Assured Destruction) to use nukes. So it won’t be used, only in very extreme cases nukes would be used, extreme in the sense that suicide is the better option. Only if mutually assured destruction is the better option.
If one didn’t have nukes then it’s a problem as the one without nukes will get nuked, especially if they are not a neighboring country. Just like how japan was nuked by US (Japan is not a neighbour, far away and doesn’t have nuke.).
