> It really goes to show that nukes just shouldn’t exist- there’s no “counter” to them if the other side is suicidal

THat's the point of nukes. Even if your economy and army suck, you still can be sure that no one will try to go through your borders to get some

If the point of nukes is "And then everybody dies", then that sounds like a pretty good argument for that we need to disarm all the nukes everywhere, no one should be allowed to have them.
Just look at North Korea.
North Korea is a bit different in terms of resources and borders than Russia and still, no one wants to mess with Kim(though i'm pretty sure their rockets will be shot before entering the atmosphere)
