What round? Do you expect it to continue? Among which lines?
Trump wouldn’t have placed himself in such a silly situation, messing with Putin in a place where no American interests are present.
Two months of gaslighting with the goal to claim victory over something that shouldn’t have happened warranted a load of crap in the face from Putin.

Well, Russia just rolled the Guards tanks into the Donbass. Problems is that the separatists only control half of the Donbass and the Ukraine military holds the other half.

I would expect the usual artillery duels and a possible escalation from invasion into war. Could be a battle in Donbass or Putin can use pretext to move into greater Ukraine. If he is smart he’ll keep it in Donbass. We will see how smart he is.

“Trump wouldn’t have placed himself in such a silly situation”

Trump initiated the first lethal weapons, Javelins, into Ukraine, so he recognized some US interest in the region.
