Yeah, that is still disputed I think.

I mean, this regime is really brazen and seems hardly constrained if it wants to ramp up operations in Ukraine. I’m leaning more to an internal crackdown.

Something that has been bugging me a bit in the back of my head for a little while now is the Poland problem.

It's not a problem for Nato of course, but it's a massive problem for Russia. Poland is in the middle of a really drastic re imagining and re fitting of their armed forces and they're probably going to be the most powerful land power in Europe by 2027. Poland becoming a true regional power and a near peer to Russia is massively problematic for their obvious desire to create a land bridge to Kaliningrad, and isolate the baltics. If they felt they could do to that limited action and get away with it for now, they definitely would.

They might be able to do it today. In 3 years the Poles would eat their lunch and beg for seconds.
