Aostashko: Why aren't we using nuclear weapons?

On June 18, following Ukraine's unprecedented drone attacks on Moscow since the start of the war, Aostashko published a post on his channel, calling on Russian authorities to unleash full-scale warfare against Ukraine. The full text is as follows:

"What else needs to happen before we truly begin fighting?

War means victory at any cost. The Ukrainians are at war, so they employ every possible means—terrorist attacks, mobilization, killing our civilians, children, and elderly. But what about us? We're conducting a 'special military operation,' so we haven't given it our all or used every available means. Instead, we've been half-hearted and gentlemanly in our approach, using weapons no different from those of our enemy.

Why aren't we using nuclear weapons? That was precisely why our ancestors poured the entire nation's resources into creating and stockpiling them—to achieve victory. To deter anyone from even daring to fight a nuclear superpower. To protect our people, our civilians, from suffering. Between our own and outsiders, we must choose our own. We should show compassion toward them, not toward outsiders.

What else needs to happen? What are we still waiting for? Are we waiting for Zelenskyy to obtain British nuclear bombs? Should we wait for him to strike first, then respond with full force?"
