There's nothing stopping the Russians from steamrolling and holding everything east of the Dnieper, w/o insurgency. All the West can depend is on a insurgency in Ukraine. But given Putin has witnessed Donbas, and Afghanistan, he knows where he should hold territory. He wouldn't try Kiev and Lviv given how those places cannot be held. He will hold and capture eastern Ukraine.

Just a reminder: Russia's protocol about the use of nuclear weapons says that they can be used in case of threat of national area by another state. It's not necessary to be attacked by another nuclear weapon in order to use them. That's because after the collapse of Soviet Union the Russian army was in a state of decay and they had to ensure that USA will not intervene. So, in a case of war with Ukraine, if NATO intervenes, most probably the whole situation will escalate from both sides.

A reminder. Eastern "Ukraine" was always part of Russia, they consider themselves Russians. It was only during the 50s did the former USSR detach parts of Russia and add to the Ukraine region. They did this as a mere formality never thinking that USSR would dissolve. This is the root cause of the Ukrainian separatists. That and USA/Globalists funded a Neo Fascist coup in the once Pro Russia Ukraine (probably in retaliation for Russia stopping their conquest of Syria)

@@TheBelrick "Eastern 'Ukraine' was ALWAYS PART OF RUSSIA". Have you ever opened some book of History of Russia? What about all the Tatar people who lived 4 centuries there until some Czars decide to kill them and move them out, like the Inca Empire used to do? If the UN start to feel great with territories declaring himself "INDIVISIBLE PART OF RUSSIA" only because Putin is delivering Russian Passports, in the short term we will have "Russian separatist provinces" in Southeast Finland, in Vienna, Belgrade, Chicago and in downtown Miami, London and Vancouver. If Putin is so Powerful and have a lot of resources and, indeed, have more of 17'000000 Km², why don't take these "poor peasants" and take them for colonizing the vast Russian Land?

He failed to mention Ukraine's violation of the ceasefire agreement that started the tensions, Russia and Putin is obligated to protect the rebels who are following the ceasefire agreement coz if he doesn't his approval rating would be even worse.

This vid completely overstating Russias reasonable intentions along Ukraines coast. Theoretical poss maybe, but I highly doubt Russia is interested in running over a lot more of Ukraine.
