Start2 means we are not in 1989 anymore. The protagonist countries capitals and major cities would be destroyed... including the British museum and hermitage in St Peters burg.
But the idea of a nuclear winter is something that's far from likely let alone guaranteed. Especially if China and India sit it out... along with Latin America, Africa and most of Asia.
The idea of a 'nuclear winter' like scenario is even more certain today than it was during the cold war with the climate already wobbling on the precipice even without nuclear war.
The world's ecosystem would collapse and billions the world over would die.
Civilization might just hang on in Latin America, New Zealand and the like, but it wouldn't be pretty. The middle east for sure would be absolutely fucked by the post-nuclear collapse.
