The plan was never for this to end in Ukraine but with as poorly as it has gone I wonder if they will rethink where they go from here.
Hasn't it been speculated that Putin wants to reunite the old USSR? If so, you have to think that Ukraine and Moldova could be "easy" first steps to gauge NATO's reaction and resolve. If that's true then the next logical steps would be southwest into Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan.
I have friends in Armenia and have been monitoring their FB pages. No concerns or fears or even opinions about Russia....yet. Still just a lot of dog pictures and videos. Although, from what I understand, Armenia is heavily allied with Russia. Not sure if they'd welcome occupation though.
