    This invasion doesn't make sense. I don't get the why.
    It damages Russia. It contradicts the politics that made Russia and China important on the planet in the last 20+ years. It contradicts their stand on respecting the legality of international law.

    It goes against their politics of capital flow and trade and capitalism. It's absurd.

    This will probably lead to a gov change in Russia...change of a leader that has to go anyway because of age.

    • It doesn't make sense. Putin seemed way smarter than to war over nostalgia & some lame case. I wouldn't doubt his inner circle turning on him.atomholc
