Putin already has control of the pipelines....the turn off valves aren’t in Ukraine if you know what I mean.
Putin’s simply making his plays because he can... and there’s few who can stop him if he really wanted to take over Ukraine or any other nation for that matter..that is not his goal.
Keep in mind China is all but supporting Putins moves.....you don’t think that doesn’t also play into the mix over how far Obama can go. He has zilch clout or power over there and Putin knows that fully well.
