Tell me again why Russia didn’t take ALL of Georgia when they intervened in the ethnic strife there in 2008?
So why did they innerve in the ethnic strife in the first place? They took Crimea in Ukraine first and now they are taking more. They obviously think they can get away with taking little bits for now and the rest later. But people catch on and now they have a full scale war and they will have more if they continue and are not stopped.
Why do you think Russia has been claiming that Alaska was illegally sold? Don’t tell me you do not see a pattern.
