If tension between superpowers such as the US, Russia and China reach the point of no return, a full-scale nuclear war will be inevitable. The world as we know it would be uninhabitable for centuries, possibly for millennia. The damage would be so destructive it would wipe clean the face of the Earth. Human extinction is in the horizon. Nuclear war is an existential risk to civilizations on our planet. Since we humans have been causing massive destruction to Mother Earth, might as well die by our hands?

China, Russia, and that other country you say aren't the only countries with nuclear capabilities. Israel, India, Pakistan, United Kingdom France, the USA, probably Iran and North Korea, they have capabilities of wreaking havoc.

Do you want to read a good book on this very topic? "Bird Nest" by Jack Waggoner, Dorrance Publishing.
