Imaging what the US would do if Russia did the same? What if Russia deployed tanks to Mexico and moved them to the border to protect Mexico from the US? I can tell you - WW3.

What would be the objective/goal of invading Poland?

Jesus Christ we’re not still pushing the “Russians hacked the election” narrative are we? Everyone acknowledges now that that’s not a true claim, how can you still report that???

I disagree, Putin is taking the Ukraine for strategic (home of the Black Sea Fleet) and political (large Russian population) considerations that don’t exist in the case of Poland or Czechoslovakia.
