#2 Western hysteria is all consuming. Any apposing views now are considered traitors and arrested or legally bound up in lengthy legal entanglements.
Scott Ritter or Durov as examples. JFK Jr.,Tulsi Gabbard and Trump also good examples.
Putin has the most western experience and has never indicated the wish for European expansion. Leadership of the west is pitiful. You replace Putin you will have a much more aggressive leadership to deal with. The Romanian and Ukrainian support for Nazi's is as strong as in WW11. Russia will deal with them as needed. You poke the bear you will be dealt with. The west no longer represents the people. Elites rule the roost.

Dale, President Putin has stated that his first goal is to consolidate the lands of the former Soviet Union, followed by the lands of the former Eastern Block. There’s no point of discussing anything beyond that what are, it seems to me, seriously stretch goals for Russia for at least a generation or two. They have neither the economy nor the population to support a greater territory.
