I would add this here - Russia, having previously delivered ultimatums a couple of times, and having received what it wanted, decided that they would continue to calmly achieve their goals by the method of threats, blackmail, ultimatums, and their fifth column in the EU (Merkel, Macron and many others) . They were sure that the EU, the USA, Britain would allow Ukraine to be swallowed up, once again closing their eyes or "expressing concern."

The sad thing is, nobody could stop them and they realized this long time ago. I mean what could the world do about it? The power of nuclear they have, and the willingness to use it if they are not given what they want to creates the biggest issue right now.

What we are looking at right now is the fact that Russia could do whatever it wants, and if you do not do just sanctions, if you do something militarily, like send soldiers, then they will send nukes and that's it, there is no discussion after that and everyone is afraid of that. I do not think that Russia will stop here, they will do whatever they want to do, because nobody else could top them.

You understand what the problem is with Russia's nuclear weapons - yes they do exist, yes they are ready, at least according to statements, to use them. But let's look at this situation, in a timeline of +50 years, for example. The EU and the US, for example, will surrender Ukraine tomorrow. AND ? What's next ? Is it all over? Not ! On the contrary - having felt the taste of "victory" Russia will say - now hand over the Baltic countries to me! And what to do again?
I will now give a very simple example, but very clear. "Russian World" or rashism is an oncological disease that is now trying to hit the world. If you have come across this class of diseases, then you know how it is treated - very painful and destructive procedures of chemotherapy or radiotherapy. This creates a terrible side effect. BUT ! The only way to cure cancer is to KILL IT! The situation with rashism and its nuclear weapons looks exactly the same. You can not give in and give up, only win! Only destroy otherwise he will destroy all of us, someone before someone a little later ...

Unfortunately, a point of view like yours seems to be quite widespread in narrow circles. In words, the West in every possible way denies direct military participation in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, but in reality the likelihood of this continues to increase with each new supply of weapons to Ukraine. When it comes to deliveries from Germany of old Leopards 1, which have a place in the dustbin of history, and not on the battlefield, this is one thing, but when the United States begins to supply more serious and modern heavy weapons, this is quite another. I assess the likelihood of a direct military conflict between Russia and NATO in the next 4-6 weeks as already high enough to be neglected. Such a conflict, under all possible scenarios for modeling the development of events, will quickly develop into a third world war with the use of nuclear weapons. Russia's demonstration of the capabilities of hypersonic weapons has forced many of the current strategies of NATO generals to be thrown into the trash, but not all of them. Even the understanding that no one will be able to sit out in a bunker on the other side of the ocean does not seem to be a strong enough deterrent.

With a direct clash of different mentalities with different ideological attitudes, the one with the firmest attitude wins. But if two cars are racing towards each other at high speed and neither of them is ready to turn, there will be a head-on collision and both will die. Someone will go to heaven, and someone will simply die - the only difference is this. Here is a question that every person should ask themselves every day until this conflict is over - are you ready to die today?

I agree that the comparison of rashism with cancer has not yet become a mass opinion, but this is a temporary state - it's just that many are still under the influence of propaganda, which formed a completely different image of Russia, and not everyone understands the real goals of Russia. This will be corrected. About fascist Germany, the opinion of the masses also changed dramatically in a couple of years.

Regarding other things.
So what if leopards are the previous generation? In the modernized state, they are quite suitable for performing a certain class of tasks. The fact that the United States, Britain and other countries are supplying more modern weapons is great - Russia has finally got a real enemy! And not obviously hopeless and guaranteed to be weaker, which Russia is used to "heroically defeating"

Conflict with NATO - what will it solve? Get global anal humiliation before death?

So Ukraine has already raped the Russian army "do not indulge in the most"! Try to wave a nuclear club? What about the meaning? And what is the logic - guaranteed to be destroyed? Here I will express my opinion - if you look at the reality of recent months, in which the "most powerful economy" of Russia collapsed in one month, and the "second most powerful army in the world" shamefully loses to the "army that does not exist", I will assume that the strategic missile forces have the same coefficient fake. I think that the problem lies more in the field of psychiatry, or rather, the painful destruction of the personality of a bunker rat, which, realizing that it would be smeared, decided to go down in history as "the destroyer of the whole world" before his death. Only Russia, its entire fake history, will undergo real destruction, and the people will drag out a miserable existence for many decades, being responsible for the crimes of rashism, of which almost all of them were. I'm sure 2022 will judge us
