I think its quite likely, and with the way tensions are now, soon it could break into a full-fledged Nuclear War. The only reason why it hasnt happened is due to the amount of damage caused and the consequences of involving other countries. However, i think that it is quite likely that many powerhouse countries such as Russia,China,UK will take sides and take advantage of this conflict to settle their past problems (e.g Russia,coldwar).:twisted:
