Politics 101, create a war to distract. Putin is embarrassed from the uprising in his ally Kazakhstan so needs to look strong, and Biden with gas prices, inflation and covid. This BS war talk works for both of them to distract the $tupid minions within each country.
NOT gonna happen, period!

The invasion, if it does occur, is likely to commence in the next week or so when the ground is firm enough for tanks and other heavy weapons to maneuver."

The only one that knows what Vladimir Putin's intentions are is Vladimir Putin.........the rest is noise. God forbid this escalates and turns into something much bigger. Russia vs Nato is bad enough let alone throwing Russia's new partner to the south into the mix. Money won't mean sweet f'k all if that happen.
