A nuclear strike is the end of the World.

And a tactical nuke, even if it didn't trigger a wider-scale nuclear conflict, wouldn't help their situation.

If brigades of enemy tanks were closing in on Moscow? Sure, that would be a nasty but effective option. NATO had something similar planned during the Cold War in case the Soviet tanks started pouring down the Fulka Gap.
