The Russian mindset will scare you

Watch the video in the link to understand the Russian mindset. We need to take off our blinders and face reality. They do not want to stop with Ukraine. That is why they must be stopped and pushed back to within their own borders. If not, this war will expand into something I know I do not want to witness.

Mostly the whole video is bullying, because Russia's military weakness has been exposed and they have not faced NATO armed forces.

Russia has more than it can handle in Ukraine and it is in no condition to attack the Baltics or anywhere else, for years to come. But it will have to be countered all that time too.

With sanctions it will take Russia's military even longer to rebuild than without.
