  1. Would Russia dare launch ship based missiles OVER Turkey in order to hit Ukraine? Sounds like a great way to ratchet up tensions.
  2. Invading the Baltics would likely trigger WWIII. Putin's only other opportunity for expansion is probably Moldova. Even Finland, which is not a NATO member, would be a redline for the Western military powers.
  3. I wonder if Ukraine still has the capability to shoot down these aircraft at this point? Surely, Russia hasn't destroyed all of Ukraine's anti-air defense systems.
  4. "Declaration of war against the whole of Europe." Very strong words from Zelensky. It won't, but maybe it should, be a casus belli for neighboring NATO nations to intervene, at least in/around Chernobyl.
  5. Cut off their access to the outside world. I'm not sure how viable it is, but sever any fiber links that pass into Russia.
  6. Without actual military assistance from the West, the best Ukraine can hope for is a bloody and prolonged insurgency. Simply giving them weapons and other aid wont cut it if they want to keep their government and military intact.
  7. Super surprising (or maybe not?) that commanders on the ground are not either confiscating all of their soldiers' phones, or at least forcing them to turn them off.
