Nuking is unrelated to the discussion. I will never promote an actual war.

Russia is meddling in foreign affairs, invading Ukraine, uselessly threatening Europe, trying to spread misinformation and killing other people in foreign countries ( London, Germany, ... )

Even now, Russia is trying to influence/take-over Ukrains news agency.

This is not about conspiracy theories, these are plain facts.

And for this, Russia deserves to be punished. And Russians should realize it is Putin's fault.

We have been too soft on Russia for too long and the problems are just increasing. The soft approach isn't helping anymore.

Edit: new from an hour ago. Nuclear radiation spike. Guess who it is... Again...

Russia is not the only country under the US sanctions. It always ends the same way — the government is largely unaffected, the people die in poverty. Sometimes they die because of the lack of medical equipment. It’s hard for them to leave because other countries are not eager to welcome them.

It’s not war, but there end up being millions of casualties. Understandably, a country values its interests above the lives of foreigners. It all looks like a world-scale trolley problem.

What alternatives do you suggest? Ultimately people are responsible for their own government's actions.
Putin has more protests than ever.

We'll see how that pans out, but I hope that they come back and the world trade table.

As an adult this time :)
