    Did Putin take the NATO bait with the recognition of the Donbass republics? The reasoning seems rather rash and emotional and brings us closer to war.

    On the other hand, Russia has met next to no understanding for their concerns and the Ukraine has blatantly ignored the Minsk agreement for years so short of capitulation there was little Russia could do. Still, this is going to make things worse for all parties economically and military.
