We know that a few days ago, Russian President Putin said when he conducted a local mobilization, if Russian territory is threatened, Kremlin will "undoubtally use all available means to protect Russia and our people." Obviously, all means include nuclear weapons. Putin
Now it mainly depends on how Russia defines its territory. After all, the "four-place referendum", namely Donetsk , Luhansk's Donbass Republic, Zaporoze and Khlsson are a high probability event to join the Russian Federation.
Ukraine
If Russia counts these four newly joined states as its territory, then when Ukraine regains the "lost land", it invades Russia's territory. At this time, according to President Putin's remarks and the country's nuclear theory, there is a possibility of using nuclear weapons.

So, Borrell's words are not wrong, the West must pay attention to President Putin's nuclear remarks. In order to avoid the occurrence of nuclear war, when the West aids Ukraine, it must control the intensity and scope of the aid, otherwise the consequences may be disastrous.
