    If they offer an invitation right now, then this is no longer a war between Ukraine and Russia, it will be a war between NATO and Russia. How do you think that ends?

    WW3 may be the last world war. No one is eager to start it.

      I don’t know with what weapons world war 3 will be fought, but world war 4 will be fought with sticks and stones.

      It’s usually attributed to Einstein but I’m not sure if that’s true. It’s hard to believe any quote that’s attributed to him at this point, honestly.

      It already has been a war between Russia and Nato. Where do you think Ukraine is getting all of their military equipment?

      It ends with Russia losing. As long as NATO makes it explicitly clear they will not attack Russian territory nor violate Russian sovereignty Russia has no basis to escalate beyond Ukraine. A nuclear war between Russia and NATO would result in the total destruction of Russia (and everything else of course). Russia wouldn’t start one unless they felt their existence was threatened.
