Las opiniones expresadas en esta columna le pertenecen exclusivamente a su autor.(CNN) — Vladimir Putin detalló la semana pasada la intención declarada de Rusia de tener armas nucleares tácticas basadas en Belarús. La oleada de reportes alarmistas sobre lo que esto significaba pone de relieve gran parte de lo que está mal con las respuestas de Occidente a la intimidación nuclear rusa.Cómo se han interpretado las palabras de Putin en Occidente puede resultar una sorpresa para Moscú, pero no hay duda de que será muy gratificante.
