Edward Lucas on Ukraine
I hope I'm wrong but historians may look back and say this was the start of World War III
We are soon to face a bleak choice. We can chose to surrender any responsibility we have to protect Ukraine and the Baltic states -- almost certainly Putin's next target -- from further Russian incursion. Or we can mount a last-ditch attempt to deter Russia from furthering its imperial ambitions.
And the crowd we have now running the show from our side will, undoubtedly and after initial inept jockeying towards "a last-ditch attempt", overswing the pendulum.
