You can be sure they’re not putting up a one and a half million man military force to fight the dwindled cadre of nazis in the Ukraine. The Russians are preparing for a confrontation with NATO forces. We can hope it doesn’t happen, but Russia needs to do more than hope. They have to prepare for it. It is just as much a certainty that Russia will win that conflict as the one they are now involved in. So what will NATO do then? Of course, there is only one answer, if as it seems they can’t accept defeat, and that should make clear the folly of confronting Russia in the first place. What complete fools our leaders are!
I don’t see China remaining neutral — at some point this will escalate beyond Russia…..
