    Not true whatsoever. Putin was pushed into this corner by the CIA/US imperialists creating massive far right militant buildups on his border. This is entirely CIA top bottom and center.

      One of the most powerful men on earth, in control of one of the strongest military forces on earth, had his hand forced. Very plausible.

        Do you know what NATO is? Do you know what a knife to the throat is?

          Nations don't have throats, only people do. NATO is a force that is good at bullying non-nuclear nations smaller than 20M people or with a GDP less than $250B.

          There were at least 2 or 3 responsive options for the Russian state; it's rather dishonest to say that there was only one option.

          Alternatively, since apparently we're talking in condescending and loaded non sequiturs now: Do you know what a bully is?
