I told you, folks. That's how Russia always does it. First, a tiny step that's easy to disavow, giving everybody a chance to pretend that nothing happened. Then another. And another.
You keep thinking, "hey, is it worth starting a large conflict over something so tiny? I might have misunderstood what's happening. Maybe I'm just imagining bad intent where it's none."
The tiny steps continue, and you find yourself in "a new normal" that it's late to do anything about.
What people don't get is that Russia's goal in this war isn't to conquer Ukraine. "If the West stops sending weapons to Ukraine, the war will end" is what silly little fools say. Because if the West stops sending weapons, that's when the war really begins.
Russia's goal in the war is for the West to not exist. So you can bleat "not my war" but that's not your choice to make. Your adversary decides if it is your war.
And the adversary decided that it is.
