Turns out I was wrong.
I had a sick feeling that Hitler v2 would try to invade moldova so he can start staging from there, or another country would officially get sucked into it. (declare war against Russia)
Didn't happen. Thought it would happen today/yesterday.
I was wrong. Whew! No world war III, not yet at least...
- Putin wants a buffer zone between NATO and Russia. That's all.pablo28
- But it's amazing that no cyber attacks have happened against a NATO country yet. That's relevant because they've already said that MAY be grounds for article 5cherub
- It does not want Moldova or Romania. Nor to provoke a world/nuclear war.pablo28
- ^ Just a week ago Russia was saying it had no plans to invade Ukraine, not sure where you are getting the idea you know their intention.yuekit
- He wouldn't want Moldova? It has port access to the Black Sea. It's small, he could bully it.cherub
- Why would he admit it? It wouldn't have helped them.pablo28
- Economic sanctions would have been applied sooner. The Ukrainian army would have prepared earlier. And so on.pablo28
- They would have shot themselves in the foot.pablo28
- ^^ As far as I know, Moldova has no exit to the sea.pablo28
- You are right. Palanca has a barrier island blocking its Black Sea access. Even medium boats likely not get in.cherub
