Clear vision of the Russian pausing to digest Ukraine then moving on to digest the Baltics, Poland, Bulgaria, Hungry ( sorry Vic ), Romania, Moldova, and half of Germany. Russian borders stop where they say they do. Peace in our time. Appeasement works whenever its been tried. Just ask Neville.
Russia will not attack any NATO soil unless an attack from NATO originates from a NATO County. This lame argument almost begs the answer is NATO is going to attack Russia. One country with an army of 950,000 men does not 32 countries spread all over the world with 4x the military capability.
Russia had enough of NATO moving boundaries and putting missiles closer to Russian soil. This was could of been avoided had NATO not put in motion the operation to install missiles that could be either defensive or offensive and Nuclear capable.
NATO is projecting as liberals always do here at home in the US. Democrats accuse Republicans of doing what they are already doing.

I have heard others say much the same. But a close read of the meetings, conferences and negotiations going on in the past years leading up to the war, there is no indication Russia wants what you describe. The old USSR certainly did. I think Trump could well bring peace to Europe.
Yes, it was a mistake for Putin to invade, big-time. But it was also a mistake for Obama to make Ukraine a client state of the US and manipulate their governmental affairs including an election.
