But this hardly merits comparisons with Hitler, Stalin, the division of Poland, world war II, or the notion that Putin wants to march to Paris.
So the Russian invasions of Georgia and the Crimea and eastern Ukraine didn’t happen under Putin?
The world heard excuses when the Nazis under Hitler and the Red Hoard under Stalin invaded Europe too. Remember what happened next? World war!
Dempsey is silly? I wouldn’t doubt it
By definition, it must, since both cases are an invasion of a soveriegn nation to force your will upon them, which is what Putin is doing.
