The Ukraine has been a war zone for a year. Fatalities are around 6,000. Eastern Ukraine is a bombed out war zone with most people trying to get out and head to Kiev.
The Russians are hoping that, rather than arming the Ukrainians and guaranteeing a war, we will step back, out of fear and let them do what they want to do. We have spent a year trying to placate them with ceasefire agreements, financial deals and punitive measures against some of their diplomats. During that time many thousands of people have been killed.
Putin is like a parasite who preys on the weak. Today, whilst the west were meeting to discuss their measures against Russia, Putin flew to Egypt to meet with the Egyptian PM and discuss Russian aid to the Egyptians. He's looking at vulnerable countries around Europe and how he can get in their to extend his power.
