It's not a direct attack on NATO though. If Russia launched a missile at the UK then it would be on like donkey kong.

NATO has stated that if nuclear weapons were used outside of NATO territory, they could income article 5 if nuclear fallout enters a territory.

Not a direct attack in that scenario, just consequences from an attack on a non-nato country, which starvation from a lack of food is also technically a consequence from an attack on a non-nato country.

So if I send a Nuke to Ukraine and affects all the border nations we act like oh look they didn't attack us.... Or poison a river that goes to other countries etc...
Or whatever... So any attack that affect the redt but it's not direct is nothing.... This is stupid
