The EU doesn't need nukes to defend itself from a Russian invasion. Ukraine got the West's hand-me-downs and has completely stalemated Russia with them for over a year. Russia's conventional forces are a paper tiger. The question is will Russia resort to nukes when the war goes sideways for them.
Russia will continue to soften up the EU, and the US with hybrid psyops warfare then take bits and pieces of real estate. It is working quit well now actually.
Depends how you consider "quite well" - the total collapse of Russia's military credbility, the insanely high casualty rate, the loss of material, for something that they were already allowed to use in Crimea, and a part of the Donbas?
I wouldn't call that "well" at all. Seems like a completely disaster.
