Putin is getting the band back together


We have friends in Belarus who went through the more peaceful version of this under the Russian puppet Lukashenko. Neither the Belarusians (closely related culturally to the Lithuanians) nor the Ukrainians have the cultural or political ties with Russia other than being former soviet client states. Perhaps Ukraine being coerced into giving up nukes was not a good idea for them long term. There is really no deterrent other that international sanctions which are not likely to stick long term.
