Thanks. Except.

This was while chatting with my Ukranian friend **before** we each knew that Putin was sending in “peacekeeping” forces.

Now that this bit of information is known - this seems to be less about making a deal with the west and more about “having his way”.

I am less optimistic about things than I was a few hours ago :(
