the us is the least likely to nuke anyone. nukes are a dirty word, and anyone who even looks like useing them gets funny look. and it still only takes one wrong move and everyone gose splat.
you right, no country will give up nukes. and the number of wepoens dose matter, if only becous if your spending money mainting nukes your never going to lanch, then that money could be spent on beter things. plus, the smaller the arsnel, the smaller the risk of something going wrong and the world turning in to a cinder.
and, on the point of useing nukes on an invading force not being an esclation, dureing the cold war, nato had a policy that if the russans made a move in to western germany, thay would use nukes. the russans would retaleate with a full strike, folowed by the nato countrys in a full strike. so, at dureing the cold war, it would have been an esclation.
