Lets play it out a little.

Russia invades. NATO forces intervene and take part in a hot conflict in Ukrain. I dont know if it necessarily leads to a Russian nuclear response. Where are they going to target? The capitals in Europe? In America? In Ukrain? Why?

Mutually Assured Destruction runs off the principle that a country with nuclear weapons will not directly attack another country with nuclear weapons since they can counter attack with a nuclear weapon. Additionally a country with them would not use them since the other country understands that a nuclear counterattack is sure to follow. The entire reason the Cold War existed and still exists is that neither the US and Russia can attack each other directly so proxy wars were the only way to keep each other in check.
