We are closer than we have been in a very long time.
Russia has disconnected most of its systems and places for the ‘global’ internet.
It has all of its major surface fleet at sea.
Chinese Jets entered Taiwanese air space the other day.
I personally think the west will stick to sanctions, however these need to be severe enough to cause unemployment such as Volkswagen closing down its plant over in Russia, banning sales of cars and parts, restricting movement by road and rail of anything going to and from Russia.
i think they will eventually demand, Odessa and free access to E95 and all land to east of the Dnieper.
depends on how bad the human rights violations get in Ukraine as Russia keeps trying to invade.
France and the U. K. may declare war on Russia. They are already confiscating russian trade vessels in their sphere of influence, so they aren't playing games with Russia. It's going to be a full military blockade on all Russian imports and exports, like old school blockade like you haven't seen since WWII or the American Revolution.

No, we will not have WWIII over this. The US has made it clear by word and action that it will not defend Ukraine militarily, and at the same time refused to take any of Russia’s security concerns seriously, meanwhile barking at Putin to back down without giving him a way to do so without looking weak. It’s almost like we wanted Russia to invade. Perhaps it was to achieve one of Washington’s most pressing objectives: stopping the Nordstream2 pipeline. Mission accomplished.
no.. this will remain a ukraine russia conflict only. we have committed to not sending in any US or nato troops. Russia will take cities and the county... but maintaining its hold over it will bankrupt Russia and demoralize their country. It will be their own vietnam. a Quagmire
not yet.. anyways
this is how i see it playing out. their economy is already taking a huge nosedive so i feel it might not be difficult for Russia to basically just run out of money to continue doing this... because it turns out waging war is fucking expensive lol.
No. Not yet anyway. Putin would have to make an aggressive (and stupid) move against a bordering/nearby NATO country (Norway, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey) or European Union country (Finland) for that to happen. I highly doubt he'd ever do that.
Yeah 40,000 is wayyyy to large of a number
that’s a big range u have there
and yes WWIII will happen if Putin accidentally launches a missle and it hits Poland etc
bc then america will declare war because we said we would defend every inch of nato territory
deaths are in 100's , will be 1000's. I want to see what India does. Just had agreement with Russia for Arms. US wants India to get out of it. I think they have to and what will Pakistan do?
You could see China invade Taiwan , North Korea invade South Korea , then you have real trouble.
If we have WW3 most of us are going to die. Estimated deaths will be around in the 100 millions.
WW1 caused around 15 million deaths and WW2 around 70 to 85 million. WW3 with modern day technology will be a total disaster globally.
I don't think WW3 will happen anytime soon, not yet.
No, this is a regional conflict. Unlike Hitler, who was delusional to believe that Germany could conquer the world, Putin is smart enough to not take on NATO.
Unless china and/or north Korea decides to get involved.
@Subarugirl Correct. The experts are thinking that China's involvement would not be military, but economically helping Russia bypass the economic sanctions. And Ukraine is too far away for North Korea to get involved.
Hitler did not think Germany could conquer the world just Europe.
Nope... just more of the same
Putin walks in like it is his backyard...
and the US and NATO nations make some money out of it with further sanctions, nothing new as of lately
I would of said its totally too hard to say a day again... but we are a lot closure than we ever have been. But I do not know if I think Biden or NATO in general has the balls.
No. It will be like the Superbowl, eating nachos and buffalo chicken wings in preparation for the halftime show. Watching the war on the big screen. Russian beer commercials and all.
A silly question tbh.. Even the Cold War didn't turn into World War, what makes you think this would?
No World War is going to happen anytime soon. This isn't some futuristic sci-fi movie.
Not immediately, but yes.
How the West addresses this issue tells China about how they would fare when invading Taiwan.
I did not hear 40 thousand killed. I heard it was 40.
But I do not think it will come to WW3 but something needs to be done about this. Putin just cannot decide to take over a sovereign nation.
What you did not see this coming after 911?
Don't you watch movies, they all tell the future
I was 4 when 9/11 happened..
Look up the start of WW3
WWIII hasn’t happened yet
Look it up, just look it up
No but Russia will see they were wrong an put up a small fight but last year we only got 500,000 gallons of oil from them so we will have plenty of oil
You've answered your own question - "... they will not send in troops". That means that no, this will not become World War 3.
The president stated that he will not send soldiers to fight on Ukrainian soil at this time, but if Russia attacks a NATO country then we will most definitely get involved. He already dispatched troops to near by countries.
It will be the WWIII as soon as we take part on that.
But Ukraine is already lost to Russia...
As long as NATO stays out of it and Russia doesn't invade any NATO counties. It will not become a global conflict. Unless China does something stupid and invade Taiwan also.
NO, not even close. Putin would have to go into a NATO country before that would happen. And he will NOT because he knows most of the free world would be against him.
If Russia moves on Hungary, Poland or the Baltic states, yes.
Russians doing the same thing they do for at least 250 years now. Contributing to the destruction of Europe.
Only if Putin invades any other countries, then all hell is gonna break loose.
we are always on the Cusp of WAR.. That is why the U. N. was formed...
This is starting very similar to how World War 2 saw its beginning prior to the invasion of Poland.
Possible I guess, but a lot of other things need to come into play before that door opens.
There is no world War 1 2 3 its all ongoing business
Tough new sanctions. So a strongly worded letter... because that worked so well the last time
You said 40,000 Ukrainian soldiers but I think you meant 40
WTF has it got to do with me. Who made the USA 🇺🇸 or THE UK 🇬🇧 the police of the world.
Nah and if we are we won't know until the nuclear blast has blotted out the sun
I don't know, @Apartheidgirl... What's your personal opinion on it?
40 thousand? Where did you get that figure?
Yes and he might be drafted if we get involved
We might be, but i doubt it
that's what i'm worried about
I hope not. ;-;
Nah. Just a nuisance
Not even close
Probably not.
I hope not.
