War is still Hell any way you cut it. Not for lots of people = they love it. Especially if they are in the rivers of $billions. Which is why they are so keen to do it. They dress up their desire to kill and dominate and confiscate with slogans and other verbiage with little to no reasoning and that's good enough for them. The most common words in the current war are "Putin started it by wanting to conquer Europe and reconstruct the USSR." Totally moronic but that's the line they're pushing. After 23 years of being in charge, during which he tried to get NATO/Eurostan/USA to buddy up and did not make any moves to rebuilding the USSR it's pretty obvious he did NOT want to have to resort to military means.
At the rate he's been going for quarter of a century, it would take about 10 centuries to get to the other side of Poland. Apart from the current war which was totally started by Obama, Biden, Nuland, Graham, and co-conspirators, Russia/Putin held on to Chechnya which went jihad, and a bit of Georgia to hold the line against the insurrection there inspired by the CIA/USA. The bit of Ukraine Russia has annexed is just the Russian bit in the far east. Crimea was Russian at least since one of my English great great grandfathers died due to trying to conquer Crimea in the Crimean war 170 years ago.
With only 150 million relatively poor people spread over a vast country, the chance of Russia conquering any part of NATO/Eurostan/USA is zero. The NATO co-conspirators have 330 million Americans, and about 700 million Euroserfs on their side. 1 billion wealthy people with the best military equipment vs 0.1 billion poor people can easily hold the line.
China would not support Russia attacking Eurostan. But they will defend Russia against a USA/Eurostan attack as China does NOT want their north-western border to be the Great Wall of China.
China will be quite happy for their western Belt and Road border to be the line down from Norway, Finland, Poland, to Turkey.
