#Putin sending military help to the #Donbass is the next logical conclusion after recognizing their independence. They asked for this help. This isn't an invasion, this is similar to the Russian operation in #Syria, made at the request of the Syrian gov rt.com/russia/550408-…
However, what the #US did in #Iraq and #Syria was an invasion because the poeple of Iraq and Syria didn't ask for US military presence. #Putin #Donbass
The Russian military will limit their operation to the #Donbass, Putin has no intention of invading Ukraine and occupying areas with a population hostile to Russia like the US did in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria
Contrary to the US, #Russia has learned the lessons of Afghanistan: don't occupy where you are not wanted. #Ukraine
I think Europe will experience something like the 1973 oil crisis when the OPEP, led by Saudi Arabia, targeted nations that had supported #Israel in the Yom Kippur war with an oil embargo. #Ukraine #Russia
