Do you think Russia could use tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine?

We are back with news in full swing, wow this sounded in my mind like a great speech of one of the most famous journalists and hosts of televised war news programs with international projection Walter Martinez, well let's continue with the point that brings us to this new post.

It turns out that in the last few hours and according to reports from William Burns, current CIA director, there is no evidence to suggest that Russia is using nuclear weapons on Ukrainian territory.

According to Burns there is no evidence that Russia will use tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine, although he warned that Russian President Vladimir Putin is increasingly determined to win the war.

In his speech he said verbatim that the intelligence community is not seeing practical evidence pointing, at this point, to Russian plans to deploy or even potentially use tactical nuclear weapons.

It should be noted that nuclear weapons known as tactical are those that can be used at close range on missiles on the battlefield or that can be launched from aircraft and ships.

Additionally, these tactics put in place by Russia are different from strategic nuclear weapons, those that have for years pitted Moscow and Washington, the two major nuclear powers, against each other.

Now, having already contextualized Burns' statements, do you think Russia could use tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine?.
