Correction - Re <b>"At time of writing, . . . of The Ukraine . . . no invasion. The Russian FM made that very clear". </b>
Evidence emerged of a planned attack on the eastern Ukrainian Russian speaking provinces. Thus asserted that the intervention of Russian forces was to prevent this by removing the capacity of Ukrainian forces to wage war. George W. Bush Iraq redux.
Other immediate Russian armed forces objectives appear to be:
1. Remove foreign interests in the Ukrainian oil & gas industry.
2. Shut down hazardous bio-lab operations.
3. Change the legal status of the two eastern provinces.
The consequences of Ukrainian maneuvers by all involved will be played out for some years.
