How sanctions have more power these days than in the days of the U.S.S.R.. How China can be the adult in the room here. It goes on and on.
This crisis is a lightning rod for the world. One deranged man with the military of a superpower at his fingertips can make such a bad judgment with such serious consequences. How to deal with it. Do we risk war with Russia now, or appease them, or let Ukraine burn to the ground? We need to find out what it will take for Putin to stop and take an off ramp. I wonder if he had this to do over again, would he?
