RE:Tactical Fact about a Russian InvasionNATO doesn't want Ukraine as member. Maybe before they gave up all their nuclear weapons, but not now. They bring nothing but grief to the table. The Russians are using the classic strategy of claiming they are protecting ethnic Russians. This is the same excuse Britain used for keeping troops in N. Ireland, Turkey in Cyprus, China in Tibet and Israel in West Bank.
The threat to Putin's position in Russia should he egin a war would be too great for him to risk it. Maybe not a trucker protest but a grassroots revolt he doesn't need.
BTW, this really has FA to do with Vermillion!
