That's still really ground troops, just a different method of delivery. The Russians didn't go in with aerial bombing, destroying all Ukrainian military bases and infrastructure, which would have neutralized the Ukrainian military's ability to respond, followed up by full forces of ground troops. They were trying to avoid destroying the country.Originally Posted by DGUtley

Precious few will be left alive to enjoy it and there won't be much left standing. The people won't even be able to get away from the fighting. It's only a 36K square km island.

They have yet to be faced with the proposition of all out war. They are hoping China will keep away if they are sufficiently armed.

Dr. Who, what is your solution to the China - Taiwan issue? Do we stand by while Taiwan becomes another Hong Kong?

Those were instruments of peace and only were used to deliver leaflets to the Ukrainian people. All of the blown up buildings and dead people were a result of Trump sending out mean tweets.
