What are you talking about? All what I was telling from the beginning is that army without nukes can be considered regional power (maximum) and not a serious army. I've asked from you to give me list of countries (with nukes) that someone tried to conquer. You failed to do so. That was just example of what I ve said. that is all.

Like everything said in your previous posts, this is also not true and it is twisting of real situation.
The NATO bombing campaign has remained controversial, as it did not gain the approval of the UN Security Council.[61]
Russia strongly condemned the campaign. The president Boris Yeltsin stated that, 'Russia is deeply upset by NATO's military action against sovereign Yugoslavia, which is nothing more than open aggression.'[197] They also condemned NATO at the United Nations saying that NATO air strikes on Serbia were 'an illegal action.'[203] Some Russians volunteered to go to Kosovo, not only to fight the KLA, but also to oppose NATO.[204]
So , this was NATO (western) idea of avoiding UN council. It was extreme mistake but it came from arrogance and western highhandedness. So Russians are threat while NATO put complete international law down. Because of this , now we have situations you are referring to (shady actions , hidden operations,etc...)
