The invasion starts, page-288

One thing that confuses me is where are the NATO countries leaders?
From what I can tell its all words, which I suspect is the reason Putin invaded he knows how weak the current batch of world leaders are led by Old Joe.
IF NATO had dropped 100k troops in to Ukraine Russia would have sat on their hands. Ukraine has become the sacrificial lamb in the name of gas to Europe.
The sanctions will not cost Russia.
I believe China and Russia will never have been as close as they will be now.
Enemy of my enemy is my friend.
