Russia begins moving troops into eastern Ukraine

[CKwi88]

Só talks to resume tomorrow, but I think you can hardly say Russia is acting in good faith. If their reported demands are to be believed, recognition of Crimea and the 2 breakoff regions as Russian, complete demilitarisation (and denazification ) of Ukraine and maintaining neutral status, it's probably a waste of time.

Ukraine will not capitulate, and Russia won't retreat. When the civilian bodies start piling up, Europe/NATO/The West is going to have to make a decision to either sit on the sidelines or act. Two absolute shit choices to have.

Seems to be trending towards Russia's Afghanistan 2.0. Russia can overpower Ukraine, but they will have to waste incredible resources on an occupation while being a pariah state.

China has to be thrilled. Russia will be their ***** for the next century as they help prop them up through the sanctions.
