"...yet putin DID go in for land..."

It is your statement, vs the statements of Stoltenberg and Arakhamia.

And as we have established, your credibility is below ZERO. So what you say, really does not matter. Because there is ZERO evidence that the Russian government had any intentions on grabbing land/assets.

The rest of your narratives is imaginary drivel. Unless you're a Russian government insider, privy to all their plans and secrets. Which you are clearly not.
