dit 38,384 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 omg. This is so damn frustrating...war in Europe...never thought our generation would witness this.

LilyLark 8,160 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Soldiers are now on the ground in Odessa and Kharkiv. F*ck. Allegedly Russian paratroopers are in Kyiv, too. I feel so bad for the people of Ukraine. And this is not to minimize their suffering and the horror, but I'm also terrified of the broader implications. Ukraine is the biggest country in Europe; it borders multiple NATO countries. Yes, it was already invaded but this is on a whole different level and frankly this has the potential to be worse than the break up of Yugoslavia and Georgia when you consider the economic implications, Putin basically threatening nuclear war, the bordering countries, Putin implying he wants to go past Ukraine, etc. TLDR: All signs point towards this being the beginning of a multi country war in Europe.... 14 Link to post Share on other sites

But if Putin succeeds here (and he's made it clear he plans to go further)....then they along with Moldova are the obvious next targets so their best bet is to try and help Ukraine win. And then of course there is Finland and Sweden (both non NATO)....I could see him going for Gotland island (not the Swedish mainland). Also poor Moldova...they are so f*cked. Russia already has a foothold with Transnistria there. There's been reporting that Putin had his eyes on Moldova and Ukraine. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
