Ukraine doesn’t have a strong enough military force to go up against Russia....and they know it. I guarantee though, the Ukraine’s will get just enough blood flowing to force intervention by the International community.....like was attempted in Syria’s early war...you’ll see the thuggary enter the arena in short time, alive and active.
Best Putin puts a lid on it all..sooner the better. And he will to protect his Ports, Navy and Russian people there, though of course they are the last on his lists of concerns.
This is why Putin acted rapidly....he understands the “other” dingbats on the stage there and does not second guess them....as Obama always does.
Sorry but Ukranians should let Chemia remain Independant from them....that would resolve the situation immediately.
I agree caww, but it’s not about the ports, it’s about the gas and he will keep going north to secure them. I don’t disagree he needs the ports but more importantly he needs the hard currency from the gas.
Thank you for all your great work on this board.
