    That’s like saying your boyfriend doesn’t want to hit you, you’ve just not done exactly as he said, so he had to hit you.

    I’m sure Putin would be happy if the whole world made him the supreme leader, without a single conflict. But that’s not really the way the world works, his actions can have no other outcome than a world war. It’s up to the rest of us to prevent this in whatever way possible.

      Correct, Putin is behaving like an abusive partner.

      He never expected Ukraine and the west to do so well against him, and since we don’t have any police to call in this case the abuser won’t be taken to jail and keeps fighting.
