    Trump, like every arogant POS has overestimated his strength. Europe can and will enter the conflict as Russia has proven itself to be an existential threat. NATO is dead, but EU has been planning for this. I wouldn’t be surprised if UKR already has or will obtain a nuke and put on a show of force . Nuking Russian troops on its own territory would be fine- and provide ground denial to the Russians.

      Somebody better tell them. In the meanwhile, their twin sibling, OTAN, will take over.

      I’d think they would have stopped their war by now if so.

      Nuking Russian troops on its own territory would be fine

      I’m sure Mr. Radiation will cooperate and not float over any innocent cities, and will stay inside of the political borders where the bomb went off.

      I’m also sure that nobody would consider retaliating over something like that, as it would be taken as just a minor misunderstanding.

      And yes, /s .

        Winds blow east in that part of the world.

        They were counting on US support so they played nice. If Europe fails to do anything meaningful we might see UKR do something incalculable.

        UKR knows that the only way to stop Putin is to match his posture. They have openly stated last year that they should get a nuke since US is unreliable.

        Retaliate for nuking their own territory?
