As mentioned to Pointman, I don't really understand it...I know there's a historical connection, but is it really worth invading? What does Ukraine offer really? Territorial security I guess? Not like its a super wealthy country, considering the financial penalties to come.

Thats the part that I don't get. Like the territorial security I kind of get - but when you think about it, why is Russia so concerned about Nato proximity? Like sorry bud, its not Nato coming in and attacking you out of the blue to take over your territory if they happened to be in Nato. Its Putin worrying about the west....worrying about Putin doing dumb sheet. If you don't fuc# around, you wont 'find out'. What an idiot.
Sad by the Russian people will have to suffer (economically, etc) until something changes.
