| Farsala said: While Estonia has some balls for saying that. They don't have enough balls to put their men on the line for the defense of Ukraine. All other non nuclear states in eastern Europe could be helping Ukraine right now and ending this war sooner. But none of them have the balls to do it. The G7 could call them a terrorist state, and if they did then Russia would end up like NK. A much more dangerous NK, with thousands more nukes in corrupt hands. I imagine Russia being like NK and lobbing missiles over Hawaii and Alaskan islands. |
What more can Estonia do? They're a tiny country. If they were to get directly involved then russia would go after them too, and they'd fall, quickly. A big part of the reason Ukraine are doing so well is because of the size of the country and the number of people there. Estonia don't have those advantages and even with russia's rubbish army they wouldn't stand a chance. They're still risking russia going after them by criticising them and supporting Ukraine, but if they actually sent troops, that would guarantee it rather than just risk it.
I don't think there's any chance that russia end up like NK. putin isn't anywhere near as secure in his power as Kim is. He'd be ousted long before that happened. Plus there are plenty of powerful people in russia that want to make money, they can't do that alone, and unlike NK they have a lot of resources that they can sell if/when they do trade with other countries again. The negatives for russian leadership far outweigh the positives, and they surely wouldn't let putin's ego get in the way of that.
