Pretty sure the blog title says it all from my perspective.
I hope the west gets off its collective ass and actually does something more than send $ and equipment, maybe live up to the words they said to Ukraine about standing with them in these trying times.
Yes, that reaction could lead to a broadening of the conflict but that is far better than seeing orphans standing at a train station waiting to be sent to the border with Poland and hopefully resettlement.
It's comical how Adolf Putin says the economic sanctions are illegal but he can declare a special military operation to remove the standing government of a sovereign nation and that is well within his legal rights.
If I'm living in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Taiwan, I've got to say I'm probably more than a little concerned about what happens next when Russia and China digest the lack of a military response to such aggression and make a move to bring my country back into the fold of Mother Russia or China.
Never thought I'd be living in a remake of the 1930s and the rise of Fascism but here we are watching the whole Sudetenland and Poland come to life all over again.
My heart bleeds for Ukraine and its people......
