But Russia does appear to be preparing to actually conduct a war. If they were bluffing, and their bluff has been called, then why would they continue to build up even more forces along the border, and they are also bringing forces into Belarus where they are even closer to Kiev.
Russia is definitely going to attack Kiev, they are annexing the whole country.
And watch Sleepy Joe Biden look like an old fool and not have one fucking clue what to do. Russia and China have already signed an agreement. They're the #2 and #3 world superpowers (well kinda in terms of nuclear power). This isn't a small time thing going on. This is Russia and China about to assert their dominance and flip the balance of power in the world. When the US backs down on Ukraine, watch China take Taiwan in even less time.
