Which is why Russia has resorted to carpet bombing Kharkiv with Cluster Bombs, which are banned and constitute war crimes for using them. None of the Russian leadership and oligarchs who support this are going to come out unscathed.

The only argument against this is that both Russia and Ukraine did not sign on to the ban on cluster bombs. (I think that includes Ukraine.)

The problem with that argument is that Russian aggression is most of the reason Ukraine desire to join NATO has grown

It’s like me buying a shot of whiskey for an alcoholic, putting it in front of him, then being mad at him for drinking it

It appears that this is a huge self inflicted wound for Russia if anything

Was Trump right when he thought Putin was savvy for invading Ukraine? Turns out no.
Wasnt even what he said. At the time Putin appears to be using the ruse of a “peacekeeping” role in the break away areas. That is what Trump called savvy. Not an all out invasion.

Really, it recovered from the USSR collapse? Again, Economics don’t matter when your neighbor has nukes pointed at you plain and simple.

Did anybody besides Trump believe the whole "peacekeeping" narrative?

I agree. My neighbor across the road has a fricking cannon he shoots occasionally. He always does it at random arse times and scares the shite out of me. I even spilled a beer a few weeks ago, broke the bottle, there was glass everywhere on my front porch. It has really made me start to consider getting a cannon of my own.....to level the playing field, so to speak
