Russia cannot afford a war.
Since they have nukes, their borders are
kind of safe.
They can, however scare people.
They know present USA is run by pussies, and Europe
is even worse(two world wars killed all the real men).
They also know Ukraine will not allow a second Holodomor.
Answer to Putin: Nuts.

It’s really an element of time and distance. Although the idea of a getting caught with your pants down by a land invasion in this era is laughable (given that anyone with an Internet connection can get pretty good real time-ish satellite imagery for free at this point), hypersonic missiles change this equation. If countries bordered by Russia has missiles of those types, the reaction time might be just a very few minutes. It’s not really any different than us getting nervous about missiles in Cuba (or Soviets getting nervous about missiles in Turkey, for that matter).
Stop reading media on this. According to UNESCO there are 9 million starving in Ukraine right now, another 10 million left the country since 2014 due to a lack of jobs, and most of them to Russia.
That’s the result of the particularly corrupt ‘pro-American’ administrations.
Add to that political parties and TV channels banned by executive orders, people imprisoned for ‘wrong’ talk and even T-shirts with wrong symbols. Putin is the least of their problems.
