Russia invasion of Ukraine

Russia annexed Crimea some years ago. Well, under the guise of russian separatists. Since then they have undergone intense psychological warfare for the peoples of Ukraine. They gained a foothold for political conversation.

The west & Nato have been putting billions of dollars worth of equipment into Ukranian defense in order to stop this invasion from occuring.

I think this was Russias plan all along. Make their enemy pay for a Russian defense system against Europe. Russia wanted all of this defense in Ukraine, to take it eventually. We just helped Russia secure it's Europian boader.

It was a good plan if this was the original intent years back & everyone fell right into it.

Maybe it would be better to start the topic with an illegal coup in Ukraine and the overthrow of the legally elected president.

Russia has done exactly what so far?

Aside from getting embarrassed in the winter Olympics, of course.

To be fair to the Russians most of the propaganda is coming out of the US.

I nearly fell off my chair laughing when they accused the Russians of planning a false flag operation as a pretext for war. Seems the goalposts change whenever it suits the agenda. According to the US government i thought false flags and crisis actors are fantasies conjured in the minds of conspiracy theorists.

If it gets messy, the whole world could be dragged into this.
But I think Putin is trolling, and wanted to see what armies NATO can assemble along with US

Why would it be the worlds problem. Russia wouldnt just start blowin people up. They just want the territory & equiptment for safety.

im sure if NATO put 200 thousand troops on Russias boarder their media would be just as crazy. Media sells & covers the same way anywhere in the world.

Estonia and Latvia border Russia?

I don't need to imagine, look at the US response during the Cuban missile crisis, the nukes were armed and ready to fly at the mere suggestion of such an alliance.

Personally i don't take sides when it comes to sabre rattling, a war between NATO and Russia doesn't benefit anyone. Ukraine is not part of NATO and so Russia hasn't deployed any troops to any NATO member countries border.

I think Russia invaded Crimea just to get these defensive weapons we supplied Ukraine.

You think USA will just be idle while Russia and China is slaughtering NATO troops and civilians left and right.
If any of the big 3 start a invasion the other two will be dragged into it.

I truly believe that NATO is underestimating the firepower and fighting will of the Russians.
Perhaps US will not react quickly if its a non nuke war, but when the first Russian nuke goes off, it will be answered by NATO.. Then China gonna help Russia, and send some nukes at the country, and then all hell breaks loose in Europe. Russia and China would flatten Europe, and US will not allow a Russia, China destroying Europe.

Did the invasion occur and end already? I guess the President of Ukraine had his bags all packed like the President of Afghanistan did.

World kept turning...and keeps turning.

Next.

That is for sure not how it will play out. Russia may just take control of Ukraine, it would be Ukraine that took it to far & started killing russian supporters if anything.

a reply to: Spacespider

All this will end if Biden's poll numbers go up . That is not looking good so I guess the # will hit the fan .

Russia is Not going to Invade the Ukraine . This is Noting More than BS Propaganda by the Great Resetter's to Distract from their Failures to take Over the World by Now . Talk about Pushing a False Narrative .

Lol, it's beyond ridiculous mate.

a reply to: Zanti Misfit

I think the narrative is starting to wear out or wear thin. The Covid stuff is falling apart as well, something probably is going happen, but hopefully nothing big.

Did the russian bear so much as fart or belch yet?
