Well, compare radar/satalite technology now and then. Also compare how long it takes to get jets in the air to shoot down a missle? The response time would be incomparably faster now. Poland wouldn't fire nukes on Kaliningrad because it would end up killing a shitload of it's own people in blast radius / radiation exposure, and Moscow would see missle coming towards it and have jets in the air before it even silo door even finished opening, since they would naturally be observing the area.
