I read on the news that Poutin threatened to invade 4 more countries. This is how ww2 got started. They just kept appeasing Hitler until they realized just far he would go. Also with every takeover the Germany military machine got a lot stronger. The take over of Czechoslovakia meant he took over all their military arsenal which was enough to arm several divisions.
Except Russia is not the military power Nazi Germany was.
Lets say he takes over Ukraine. Horrific… but that’s not some huge economic windfall. If Russia tries to invade a NATO country in the next few decades, even with America totally out of the pictue, they’d get theit butts handed to them.
Only way it works is if China backs the heck out of Russia. Which is theoretically plausible if America is “defeated” I guess.
I mean we will pull out of Ukraine, with Ukraine in ruins and taken over. Emboldening Russia to conquer more territories.

When will Putin invade Poland?
That’s okay, Europe has your back while you look inwards yet again.
