Ukrainians are definitely not alone.A lot of them are coming here(a EE,NATO/UE country) and other neighboring countries and they're received well: most people in EE naturally dislike russia for obvious reasons.
I understand somewhat US not doing much of anything militarily speaking, and it's nothing new: happened before, it's precisely why Putin does it: he dares the west to do something, because (and this is the bigger, more overlooked picture) he knows he's mainly there to play a role: to distract the west from Taiwan, Kazakhstan[people already forgot about this one, it's critical for China's development of the 'Silk road' train route], etc. If sh1t hits the fan, he also knows China backs Putin.That's why also the Chinese are threatening TW lately: the western leadership(Biden, Germany's Scholz,somewhat even Boris & Macron) is weaker right now.
- nickpp 5y agoWhat if China's future moves in Taiwan are being determined by the Ukrainian outcome? A Russian victory (I think) will show a weakened, divided West and will embolden China.
- sebow 5y agoI think china's plans for tw are not necessarily determined by Ukraine, mainly because getting TW hurts the west and empowers China way more.(chips,obviously) It's a reasonable assumption to make and personally I think China wants tw regardless. Hybrid wars that are being started and slowed down : I.e. joggling with your opponent's forces are very dangerous.
