Question

Why is military interventions such a risky proposition for other countries watching this Ukraine and Russia conflict unfold? Use a specific example.

Answer 1

M.A.D.

Step-by-step explanation:

M.A.D., which means Mutually Assured Destruction, is the main reason why European powers are hesitant to intervene in the war. Russia, if feeling as though they were going to lose or be attacked, would most likely launch their nuclear arsenal as a last ditch effort to win or assure that if Russia falls, so does everyone else. This would be devastating because the United States and Russia have so many nuclear bombs that they could destroy the world many times over. There would be no survivors in a nuclear war.
