"We propose placing on Ukrainian land a deterrence package that would either force Russia to participate in real peace negotiations or allow for the destruction of their military targets," Zelensky said.

What effect does the nuclear winter hypothesis have on nuclear deterrence and our readiness to rely on nuclear weapons as a key element of defence?

“We already have enough deterrent measures at our disposal; our conventional army and missiles program are enough for deterrence.”

On that day, Israel’s military deterrence — essential for a besieged state surrounded by enemies aligned with Iran — collapsed.

But the land-based part of the triad is actually the opposite of deterrence — it’s an invitation to be attacked.
