    With the build up of Russian forces on the border with Ukraine are we on the brink of a new war in Europe, If Russia invades who will stop it? If they annexed Ukraine then Russia would next have a border with Poland and the EU, Is Putin determined to reunite the old CCCP? under his control

    Reports Russia has moved 80,000 combat troops and tank regiments to the Ukraine border, not good

    Putin knows he can walk all over the USA now with Sleepy Joe in charge, so little resistance or help from that corner of the World

    I can't see anything happening.

    It happened before shortly after they annexed Crimea, and it'll happen again after this. It's just posturing after a few sanctions from Ukraine. Plus Putin will want to see if the US comment on it given Biden's anti-Russia stance in comparison to Trump.

    I haven’t been jabbed. It’s not safe for me to mingle with the masses and go off to war, thank you very much.

    The USA could probably wipe Russia out in a breathe, a lot of their equipment is still from the Cold War. That said with Joe Biden in charge he’ll still be getting out of bed by the time Russia’s tanks reach Kiev, if China joined with Russia that’s when we’d all be in trouble.

    The next major world conflict, will be less about military might. In my opinion.

    If you want to exert your financial, political, social and cultural influence over the world, you no longer need to bomb the shit out of your 'enemy'.

    He seemed to do a pretty good job of it when Putin's Orange Poodle was in charge.
    At least 'Sleepy Joe' wont spill any state secrets to him or prefer Putin's lies over information gathered by his own intelligence agency.
    I'd rather have Sleepy Joe in charge than No Brain Trump any day of the week.

    Yet it only takes one American Nuke or a few drones to make them obsolete, wars won’t be thought like they once were. One American drone could wipe them tanks out for fun, over half of them invaded Afghanistan in the 80’s. I’d back Russia to start a war but not finish it.
