I am taking the under.

Russian amphibious ships and support are transiting the English Channel as we speak and should be in the Black Sea within 8 days (in support of what's already there [Russia's Black Sea Fleet]).

Easily over. There will not be a formal invasion of Ukraine. To the extent Russian eventually annexes Donetsk and Luhansk without firing a shot, it will occur after February 1.

Has Putin done the math to see if the cost of invasion/war was actually cheaper than paying off Ukrainian politicians to get what he wants?


It seems that the Chinese have figured out that the later is more cost effective.

Will Joe Blow come to Ukraine's aid, since Hunter is managing Ukraine's natural gas business with such acumen?

That is China’s invasion of Taiwan.

Russia, most likely, doesn’t give two shits about the olympics.

As an American troop over in Eastern Europe, I’m intrigued by the situation.

Along with OP, this also goes on the list of things that OMLandshark and John Bolton desperately want to happen, but won’t.

They are going to wait until after the Olympics in my opinion.

You keep repeating this lie. Ukraine has zero nuclear weapons.

Annexation will not solve Putin’s problem.

He’s going to move to the extent that it prevents Ukraine from being a NATO member.

He has already done that. Ukraine will not be a NATO member and is nowhere close to becoming one.

He will annex the Donbass though.

Putin does not need Ukraine, so why take it over? He already has the part he needed in Crimea. The rest of the country is poor and would be a drain on the Russian economy.

But! If we keep poking the bear, who knows.
