Putin is not afraid of the West ... Build-up of Russian elite and airborne troops from North of Ukraine is indirect indication of possibility of the first strike from the North direction Chernihiv-Kyiv combined with the supplementary strike in the direction Kharkiv-Dneproterovsk. If US intel is able to look just at the map it could be clearly seen that these areas are ideal for sudden strong and fast strike to take control over all Northern and Eastern Ukraine. … Putin can do this if he wants, as he realized well that there would be either no military assistance of any kind from NATO to Ukraine or in worst case just some symbolic measures. During Obama’s meetings with EU leaders on March 26, 2014 it became very clear that the West has no plans to use force in Ukraine. … Confirmation that Putin is not afaraid of West is also an analysis of Article 5 of NATO agreement. This article says that NATO members pledge to come to the assistance of the attacked state using “such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force.” It is evident that a gaping loophole is availabe: President Obama can simply deem that the use of U.S. force isn’t necessary. He can walk back the red line, as he did with Syria. Stern talk and minimal sanctions would follow, but some Eastern European countries could simply lose some, if not all of their territory. NATO is currently not ready to challenge Russia to defend NATO Eastern European countries. NATO is not ready and is not willing to give any military assistance to Ukraine, either. Many Ukrainians suppose that West has betrayed Ukraine. The West has never cared about Ukraine before and why would the West care about Ukraine today? As history teaches, after 1938, there was 1939 when WWII started. Putin will not stop with Ukraine. euromaidanpr.wordpress/2014/03/27/russian-blitzkrieg-from-north-and-east-north-u-s-intel-on-ukraine-is-lagging-behind/
