I might be wrong but from what I remember there’s only like three or four triggers for nuclear strikes:

Imminent threat to Russias nuclear infrastructure.

Survival of the state is threatened.

Assassination of head of state or upper government/military leadership.
Even Russians nuclear doctrine is no good. All ok for Putin to send squad after squad after Zelensky while publically threating he will kill him and his family. Someone does the same to him...nuclear war.

So ####ing stupid.

Anyways, this is all assuming Russia is a sane actor, which clearly they are not. Doctrine will go out the window if he so chooses, as any kind of agreement/doctrine/policy goes out the window when your dealing with the Russian government.
