More and more it’s looking as if Putin’s Ukraine strategy is the correct one. Russia is solidifying it’s hold on 25% of the Russian speaking East, while landlocking Kiev. Leave the remaing 75% of the country to NATO as a vassal state. Let them pour a never ending amount of money and support keeping it solvent. It is becoming the Cuba of Europe and will eventually drain the EU.

Which all could have been negotiated with no innocent deaths ad saving a trillion dollars.

Yes I said long ago that Putin does not want to annex or occupy the whole Ukraine because he can’t afford a welfare state on his budget.
