#3 Germany and France doing what they have done since the 1990s in NATO. Talk, posture, and not much else.

#4 Same as the US. The only difference is when the US does it the Putinistas keep saying "Help! We're being oppressed!" anyway.

#5 /\ An actual president is no longer required. We now have a consortium of oligarchs, intelligence community experts, and supporting leftest politicians.

#7 Could well be Soros is running things. The bastard's probably made another billion in the last week buying up Russian debt and rubles at basement prices. Probably kicking back 10 percent to Putin.

#9 If the Ukrainians use a lot of Russian designed/based equipment, all they have to do is pick up from the stuff the Russians leave behind, abandon, or that they don't fry when shooting up those pockets they isolate.
