Stuff like this is what really scares me. This whole situation seems to be a big loser for Russia.. cut off economically, alienating the other world superpowers and all for a little bit of land that really won't help. So why?
The optimist in me thinks Putin is just on a mad dash to restore the USSR and feels like his time to do this is now or never..
The pessimist in me worries that Putin is playing 4-D chess while the West is still setting up the checkers board and we have no idea what the real end game is.
