Oh that’s funny! Cupcakes!

Yes, unfortunately we are much limited from all the info I’ve seen...and further Ukrain has just 6,000 troops battle ready...years of not training or equipping their military has resulted in them having no military defense to speak of. Yet the Eu and US expect them to battle if it comes to that.

Sickens me Obama insulted them and so did the Eu by sending blankets and rations......a few tanks etc. to fight with.

All the armament from Nato is on the Baltic borders to “protect them” as they are NAto Members..Ukraine is not. I don’t think they’ll rush in...I do think this will go right up to whoever blinks....and that’s pretty alarming....someone will have to yield.

Many of those Russian troops in Crimea can be used to invade Southern Ukraine. Didn’t many of the Ukrainian servicemen in Crimea decide to go over to the Russians?

Much of Ukraine’s military defected to Russia, taking their weapons with them. In fact, Ukrainians could be facing Ukrainian units of the Russian army.
