All weapons which make sense for Russia's leadership. Nukes are not that, they want to still rule over something when this ends.
Chemical weapons are possible, I think.
If we go far enough up the command chain, there are fallout shelters and ~~slaves~~ subordinates to rule over.
But you're right, chemical and biological are likely lower on the "let's fuck every treaty" scale.
I suspect they are getting second thoughts there about those fallout shelters and how different they are from wow hypersonic missiles and wow radioelectronic warfare and other kinds of wow they considered real.
