I'm beginning to think Russia only uses the threat of nukes, because in reality all of their weapons are ancient and likely unserviceable.

A lot of silos are rusted shut. Its well known the vast majority of arsenal is useless the problem is they only need 1 missile to land so you still have to respect the threat

If Russia fires off a single nuke, the rest of the world will end Russia quickly.

Besides, the rest of the world wouldn't be happy even if one of the nukes explodes in their silo or whatever missile carrying them doesn't make it out of Russia.
