I'm getting a sense that the Indian strategic thought is very similar to the Turkish one: overestimation of one's own importance, backstab everyone and call it being a machiavellian genius, and pass off every blunder as "4D Chess".
"Swing state" logic

thanks bro, will try to write something up re the Northern crusades but it's interesting the relationship between the Russians, and Poles and even the Golden Horde during that period of history.

As i mentioned in the other thread, Russian retaliation has begun

Russia can employ other methods to bring the pain to the US- as we know, stagflation is already in america with no signs of abating, and the price of natural gas will only increase to punish the foolish westerners, this will cause other food prices to increase as well given transport costs and petrochemicals and fertilisers.

Russians reported capture of Azov neonazi soldiers

I guess from the perspective of Azov, this would be like Gondor Rangers being captured by Uruk-Hai? As some have mentioned here, it was so helpful for these nazis to tattoo themselves so that Russians could find the perpetrators so much more easily!

In line with what i mentioned earlier re US desperation re high oil and gas prices

ASIA is a place of Barbarism and Violence to the West because the West goes there to commit Barbarism and Violence

The US agenda in Russia is never just about Russia. Russia itself has a complicated history. It’s also a territorial giant that spans the entire east-west axis of what’s considered “Asia.” Encircling China & Russia go hand in hand because it’s about taking the whole continent

{Note: should be EURASIA -- Heartland Theory by Halford Mackinder, and from which his famous quote has been passed down to us: “Who rules East Europe commands the World Island [Eurasia]; Who rules the World Island rules the World”. --

They should zoom out a bit in that flag picture for accuracy.

I just can't see how Russia will be able to seal the huge border with Poland against weapon & fighters smuggling. Assuming Ukraine could even be fully occupied, the insurgency could make the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan look like a cakewalk.
We still don't know the game plan. But several Russian opposition politicians mentioned the possibility to simply break Ukraine into pieces.

From Putin's own mouth we know that a) he does not consider Ukraine to be a country but an artificial construct b) he considers Ukrainians to be part of Rus people like Russians and Bielorussians.
He also said he would not affect Ukraine's territorial integrity. But he wants them to recognize Crimea is part of RF.
This would mean a de facto vassalization of Ukraine. But who knows.

Once Ukraine is absorbed into Russia's sphere of influence or absorbed into Russia proper, i hazard a guess nations immediately bordering the newly enlarged Russosphere might end up being nicer to Russia or stringently neutral as Finland was for the duration of the Cold War.
You ignore Finland's history before the Cold War. They fought two wars with the Soviet Union in late 1930s-1940s. I have also seen a lot of comments in Russia like those below:

The RUSSTRAT Institute for International Political and Economic Strategies recalled that Finland ceased to be part of the Russian Empire as the Grand Duchy of Finland and gained independence only in 1917, and the Council of People's Commissars of the Russian Soviet Republic was the first to recognize the country. It, like Ukraine, is a former fragment of Russia - it received its own statehood as a result of its collapse.

As experts noted, all countries neighboring the Russian Federation should remember the words of Vladimir Putin : "We will never agree with only one thing: for someone to allow themselves to use Russia's generous gifts to harm the Russian Federation itself."

Helsinki and Stockholm must clearly understand that Moscow will never agree that the territories of Finland and Sweden be used to deploy US and NATO military infrastructure, as well as to deploy missile strike systems. Preserving the non-bloc status of these countries and refusing close cooperation with the US and NATO is the key to their independence and stable development, RUSSTRAT stressed.
With regards to Germany. I have to remind you of two things. Stalin proposed to make Germany a unified neutral country after WW2. The US refused. After Stalin died Beria proposed much the same. The US again refused.

And the message to Russia that "you went to war to avoid new NATO members and that is exactly what happens due to your actions" is pretty enticing as a political signal for NATO and the West right now. Might even be seen as a win.
It mostly depends whether the West (especially the US) wants to de-escalate things or not.
Right... so what happened after the Russian war with Georgia? Do you think Finland physically being in NATO would change things?
So you know where is most of the population of Finland, or how much population it has? I will give some hints. 1/8th the population of Ukraine and they nearly all live in the South.

No the only solution to stop this insanity is to put the INF Treaty back into force. They will also have to stop NATO troop deployments and bases in either the Baltics or Finland. It is rather curious that Europe publicly protested in favor of the INF Treaty back then but now just let the US drop the treaty unilaterally. It would also be nice to get the Treaty on Conventional Forces of Europe back into actual practice but I doubt this will happen. It might already be too late to do this.
