He has long made it clear that his deepest desire is to use nuclear weapons and go down in history for it.
His diseased mind does not distinguish between fame and infamy. He does not actually care either way.

Trump, Putin, and Xi have decided to slice up the world. The bluster is just that: theatrical bluster.

The plan is a world divided in to these three domains, at least IMO.
