Russia is in a military stalemate in Ukraine but plans to take over Europe. Why not the world?

This general must be poking fun at Putin.

And you'll be one of the last ones to enlist. Better to have someone else fight and die for your cause.

This must be a very long-term plan.

One day you claim Russia can’t move past the Dunbas, and the next day you have Putin standing in Berlin. More PropAgenda from globalist swines.

Hah hah. Europe should just give up. They have no military. They are already commies so not much will change.

But a truce would be useful. It would give Europe time to rearm.

We’ve been listening to “The Russians are Coming” crap since the psychotic DC deep-staters first told us Trump was giving secrets to Putin and hired hookers in Moscow to pee on Obama’s bed

Please stop spewing your garbage. Its pathetic

This isn't the same Red Army in 1945.

If Putin was smart, he should have left Ukraine alone. And went after the Baltics. I doubt that NATO would have done anything.

It was always next.

They’ve been telegraphing that for quite some time now.

People just haven’t been paying attention.

The article is delightful, as is the "globalist:" who wrote it. One reads:
Dr. Rohac is the author of “.In Defense of Globalism” (Rowman and Littlefield, 2019). His previous book, “Towards an Imperfect Union: A Conservative Case for the EU” (Rowman and Littlefield, 2016), was included on Foreign Affairs magazine's list of best books of 2016. Dr. Rohac has testified before the House Foreign Affairs Committee and has briefed the US Helsinki Commission. His commentary has been published widely in the popular media, including in the Financial Times, Foreign Affairs, Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post. His scholarly articles have been featured in policy journals, including Constitutional Political Economy, Journal of Institutional Economics, Kyklos, and Public Choice.

He has a PhD in political economy from King's College London; an MPhil in economics from St Antony's College, University of Oxford; an MA in economics from George Mason University; and a BA in economics from Charles University in Prague.

As one observes in the article, the statement "Today Georgia, tomorrow Ukraine, the Baltic States the day after tomorrow, and then perhaps the time will come for my country, Poland," is the late former president of Poland Lech Kaczynski, written in 2008. The Maidan dates from 2014 and Russia annexed Crimea in 2014. So the testimony predates the events by six or seven years.

The “should agree to a truce" part is downplayed. A win by Ukraine, a win by Russia, a frozen conflict or an armistice aside. the author is a globalist.

The argument is globalist. Globalism. Yeah, globalism.
