This aged like a pile of pork, typical for the noobs at the New Yorker I suppose >Both the Ukrainian and Russian governments keep downplaying the probability of war and reprimanding journalists for fanning the fear. A prominent Ukrainian think tank run by the former Defense Minister has issued two reports, three weeks apart, arguing that a successful large-scale Russian invasion is not yet feasible. Everyone understands that the war would be both bloody and senseless—surely Russia doesn’t really want to occupy one of the poorest countries in Europe, inhabited by forty-four million people, most of whom have come to hate Russia. And in peacetime—even in fragile, relative peacetime—it’s always hard to imagine war. |
