Just build nukes if you are afraid of Russia then nuke them if they try to invade. Ukraine is not as smart and gave up its nukes in the early 90s, and is now in the middle of a war for the last couple years.

And what happens when Russia launches nukes in response?

They've been threatening Europe for years to not cross a line otherwise they'll nuke. Lines were crossed and nukes were not launched.
