Shockingly prescient and a well-done analysis in general, but I still don’t buy the “Putin had no other choice” argument. It boils down to the equivalent of the “It wasn’t my fault that I raped the woman, she wore a short skirt!” bullshit argument. I understand the “this is how realpolitik works” line of thought, I really do. But it doesn’t change who’s at fault here.
