Answer 1

Russia needs the U.S. and the u.s. is pretty much the only nation that can 'handle' russia effectively. Even still, Russia is dealing with losing its influence

Answer 2

Why are you judging Russia without giving it right to explain themselves?

Or at least you should find some independent press first, covering war from both sides of front?

Answer 3

Russia is aching over the fact that is it not a world superpower anymore.

And it is aching over the fact that it is losing influence within its own region.

So it is flexing its muscles....and fairly confidently knowing that the west will not stop it...at least militarily.

Answer 4

Russia wants it's empire back and it thinks the time is right because the US is spread pretty thin, and our so called allies are still living in the 70's. Unfortunately we are going to have to keep going through this insanity as long as the likes of Russia and China and others are still among us. A cataclysm is coming, every day we march closer to it, this is just the latest step.

Answer 5

I agree with the first answer. If it comes down to it "someone" will just take their president out without anyone knowing who did it.
