It's a bit arbitrary though. If you meant some sort of tipping point then perhaps but it wouldn't get to this domino piece if not for Russia's initial actions (and this might probably be tracked even back to Crimea and 2014). Unless of course you think for some reason that Ukraine should just fold and give Russia whatever they want

Ukraine is a captured state in any case. The west funded a coup in 2014 known as the Euro Maiden, which forced the then Ukrainian president to flee the country. Russia took Crimea without firing a single bullet. This is well documented as they just rolled in and took it without any resistance from Ukrainian military.

In 2014, I witnessed the Ukrainians barricade themselves in the town hall after losing the third referendum, and when the Crimeans went to the town hall to kick them out they shot them all from the barricaded windows. This is why Russia then came in.

Russia doesn't "want" Ukraine - it's their cousins. They just don't want NATO and Western influences meddling and breaking the country down. If you actually look at the history, the aid and the assistance Russia STILL GIVES TO UKRAINE even throughout this war, you'll actually realise the truth to this whole mess.

Visiting Warsaw for the halving party was an eye opener.

We did a vintage bus tour (paid in Sats from my own node - first self sovereign transaction I ever did BTW)

It took us round the city showing us the history of a country surrounded on all sides by forces with different agendas.

Poland I believe should move a little east. Western Ukraine is technically historically Poland and Poland has taken some land in East of Germany.

Alas, borders is what really fucks up things. Here in Africa, borders have cause many divides and wars that still continue to this day between these groups of people displaced by borders.

The fractalisation of the USSR has created many vectors to be abused. I don't think any former USSR state has been untouched by separatists seeking independence.

We are all the same, except when we think we're not.

More accurately Poland was given part of Germany. It wasn't Polish decision

But then again being after a couple of years under Russian reign created an example for the rest of Ukrainians why they don't want to be under Russia. Hence so fierce defence
