      All the West can depend is on a insurgency in Ukraine. But given Putin has witnessed Donbas, and Afghanistan, he knows where he should hold territory. He wouldn't try Kiev and Lviv given how those places cannot be held. He will hold and capture eastern Ukraine.

The author also explains how Russia deprived Bulgaria of part of their lands through the interference into the Balkan wars of the 18th century.

    Just a reminder: Russia's protocol about the use of nuclear weapons says that they can be used in case of threat of national area by another state. It's not necessary to be attacked by another nuclear weapon in order to use them. That's because after the collapse of Soviet Union the Russian army was in a state of decay and they had to ensure that USA will not intervene. So, in a case of war with Ukraine, if NATO intervenes, most probably the whole situation will escalate from both sides.

      The world is teetering over the abyss. The West is being deconstructed. Its economy has collapsed, there is moral and cultural decay, political division,and the depopulation agenda appears to be in full swing with the vaccination program. Famine is also imminent and land, water and air are all being poisoned and rendered incapable of supporting life. And complete power rests in the hands of a shadow government controlled by globalist forces that have constructed vast underground facilities for long term survival. Yes, I believe that global nuclear war is not only possible, it seems almost inevitable.

      A reminder. Eastern "Ukraine" was always part of Russia, they consider themselves Russians. It was only during the 50s did the former USSR detach parts of Russia and add to the Ukraine region. They did this as a mere formality never thinking that USSR would dissolve. This is the root cause of the Ukrainian separatists. That and USA/Globalists funded a Neo Fascist coup in the once Pro Russia Ukraine (probably in retaliation for Russia stopping their conquest of Syria)

What about all the Tatar people who lived 4 centuries there until some Czars decide to kill them and move them out, like the Inca Empire used to do? If the UN start to feel great with territories declaring himself "INDIVISIBLE PART OF RUSSIA" only because Putin is delivering Russian Passports, in the short term we will have "Russian separatist provinces" in Southeast Finland, in Vienna, Belgrade, Chicago and in downtown Miami, London and Vancouver. If Putin is so Powerful and have a lot of resources and, indeed, have more of 17'000000 Km², why don't take these "poor peasants" and take them for colonizing the vast Russian Land?

    I would think that the current status quo is exactly what Russia wants.
    During the Maidan revolution, both EU and NATO got really interested in getting Ukraine on their side and at that moment the conflict in the Donbas started. Countries with existing border conflicts can not join the EU nor NATO (same with Moldova) and the conflict causes sufficient internal instability to destabilize any future attempts to join the Western countries.
