What are the Ukrainians supposed to do, surrender meekly and hope Comrade Putin isn’t too harsh?

Well, they could go down fighting, but I hope they're not that stupid.

The cavalry is not coming.

Dfwgator is right -- Ukraine cannot stand, it's too tied to Russia for gas and loans. What should be done is for Ukraine to tell Russia "you take the land east of the Dnieper as payback for the loans. Then let them go

The Western Ukrainians MAY be pro-West, but they also celebrate Banderas who slaughtered Poles. I personally think they have groups who are dangerous. But let the Russians grab the East and the ire of these Rusyni are directed towards Russia.
