So this is like Vietnam (can't go into Cambodia or China) but with much larger counties? (To vastly oversimplify)
(And sorry, I've been avoiding the news of the war since it's stressful)
- IgorPartola 4y agoNo, I wouldn’t say so. Invading Russia is not on the table at all for anyone.
- greggarious 4y agoI'm not saying they should, I'm picturing a situation where troops enter Ukraine then retreat to safety repeatedly. I'll shut up now, I try to focus on policy positions, not the positions of troops :-)
- IgorPartola 4y agoAh that. Sort of. Ukraine has carried out a few deep strikes inside Russia so far. Military targets are not off limits even hundreds of miles inside Russian borders. But a ground assault is a different thing because then yes Russia can claim that it is being invaded and resort to nukes. But this also isn’t necessary to win the war.

(But I shouldn't joke about serious things when I'm not an expert on these matters)
