Lowkey, if thereās anything that might actually take this shyt overboard itās a cyber attack on infrastructure in sanctioning countries. Thatās by far the most mobile form of attack today and could be impactful. On Russiaās end itās not prudent to further provoke NATO and on NATOās end itās best to leave at least a tiny shred of room for dialogue because eventually Kiev will fall and at some point both sides will need to talk.
Iām definitely convinced that weāre seeing a shift. In a way, this worked out great for America because it now gets a chance to reassert itself in Europe/NATO after years of deteriorating influence/unity.
