What is Russian up to in East Ukraine - Ukraine Crisis


Lets Get Real:

President Putin has backed himself in to a corner, he has whipped up anti Ukrainian feeling in Russia, the Russian economy is starting to fall apart with the help of Western sanctions, thus the Kremlin faces two choices, total invasion of the Ukraine or total humiliation, let's recall Putin is ex KGB, not the most friendly outfit in the history of intelligence work, thus it can be assumed that Putin has gone for the first option, take as much of the East of the Ukraine as he can, and then see how the West reacts, or if he feels bold, take the whole of the Ukraine, and then place pressure on Poland and the Baltic States, this could be very dangerous, as any threat to Poland and the Baltic States is a threat to NATO.   One can hope that Putin does not go to far, there is a point of no return.
