Telegraph: Reports the following from Moscow, Russia, " Moscow says 8,500 troops are involved in practice for 'combat missions on unknown territory' ".
Lets Get Real:
Hardly the most subtle of threats from Moscow, the question that the West has to ask is the Crimea the only target, is Moscow also after the East of the Ukraine, at what point do the forces of the Ukraine fight back, if Russia invades then Ukraine has to fight, lets hope that the West supports the Ukraine, not with troops but with arms and supplies, if Russia was to be defeated in the Ukraine it would be the end of Putin in Russia, hardly a BAD thing for Russia and the West. One can postulate that Putin is bluffing, he will take the Crimea and keep low level pressure on the rest of the Ukraine, if he is mad and goes for the whole of the Ukraine, ALL bets are off for the outcome.
