Just like Biden doesn't. It's up to the Chain of Command to follow the order to launch. Then the Crews in the launch sites to actually deploy.
He reduced the number of keys from three to two. we mentioned it in the forum, I think maybe 2-3 years ago.

This will of course be a while before this happens.

They must not and probably do not have the troop numbers to "invade" in battle Crimea, its sufficient,at least I think, to isolate it and cut off completely all supplies. The rest the isolated Russian troops will do themselves: disobey orders.

Nice job Russia. You managed to shoot down a Storm Shadow Missile with a submarine! The world's first. Only In Russia.
All is not lost, however. The Kilo Class Submarine can still dive. Unfortunately, it can only do it once and just keeps going, straight to the bottom. I think you should take a ride on it. By all means, give it a go.

Ukraine can only hope that this is just sabre rattling in the tight eleciton race. Because if Warsaw sticks to this, Kyiv is in troubles and could slip even deeper if Warsaw decides to also no longer let foreign supplies enter Ukraine via Poland.

Reason for concern.

Poland does not want a Russian satellite extra at his border the nationalist Law and Justice (PiS) party wants to win this election, this is just sabre-rattling.

The PiS is Katcynski, and Kat is a highly irrational and unscrupoulous sucker, so I think everything is possible. He might use this as a weapon against the EU, for blackmailing.

Poland has taken the brunt of Ukraine refugees and gave a lot of support of course Kaczyński will use this in the EU there are more in Eastern Europe that do this, but Poland will never align with Russia they will support Ukraine to prevent any Russians at their gates.
