Suggests a feinting strategy for NATO to begin a military buildup, manpower and equipment, to the border areas that have been left most thinly defended by the Russians.

Have NATO member nations issue the same statement. "We view the possible fall of Ukraine as an existential threat to Western Europe and to the United States". That's it, nothing more, no mention of the buildup.

Let's see how many recently deployed Russian troops are redeployed lickity-split back from Ukraine to where they came from.😈

Message to Ukraine, "the bill to support you has passed, your table is ready, sic 'em."

How Russia's "obedient majority" will elect Vladimir Putin to a fifth term and why it matters from Moscow analyst Andrei Kolesnikov. The Carnegie Endowment for Peace researcher told DW's Tim Sebastian from Moscow that Russia’s “eternal president” needed the country’s conformist majority to “rally around the flag.” Kolesnikov said that even though no credible political opposition existed in Russia because extreme repression, greater even than in Soviet times, that it continues to be a very dangerous time for political opponents of Putin, in the wake of dissident politician Alexei Navalny’s death. The veteran Russian political analyst also said the Kremlin wanted the threat of “permanent war” with the West but not necessarily military confrontaton with NATO because the ongoing war in Ukraine was more than enough.
