It's very simple. Don't bring NATO forces into Ukraine and Russia will not invade it.

PS: No 'But Crimea!' crapola please. That was payback for the overthrow of a democratically elected government instigated by the western world. It's done and over, and that territory ain't coming back to Ukraine no matter how many sanctions are thrown at Russia.

You have it wrong. Call the SOB's bluff and let Ukraine into NATO and then see if he wants to get obliterated, Just my opinion. Putin is a sad bulley. GLTA

Ukraine can't get into NATO ... it's a political game. Not even 10 years from now they won't be part of NATO. Look at NATO's expansion after the cold war and how long it taks to become a full member. Also, what countries have to give up to be part of the Alliance.

Ukraine has already applied to join NATO so they know what they have to give up.Whether it takes ten years or ten minutes, you are absoutely right, pure politics. I do know that appeasing Putin is no different than appeasing Hitler. Doesn't work. Look at Crimea. GLTA

Biden's considering evacuating Americans out of Ukraine. Let's hope that senile old prikk does a better job than he did in Kabul: https://www.cnn.com/2021/12/07/politics/us-citizens-evacuation-ukraine/index.html
