The big question is whether Russia can translate the use of military force into achieving its political goals and what will it do if it can't? A Russian invasion now would be an attempt to achieve what 2014-2015 failed to do, so more force is likely and compromise is less likely.

@vfroloff But to how many cities? That would also take time and what happens if people don't surrender? I think all of the options are very unpredictable if they attempt to do anything other than targeting the Ukrainian military.

Facing new Russian aggression Zelensky's speech to the nation, including a direct appeal to the Russian people. 'A powerful, dignified, mature, and heartfelt appeal for peace between Russians and Ukrainians that couldn't have been any more different from Putin's resentful rant.'

@maxseddon:
@PentagonPresSec Zelensky speaks to the nation. The gravity of the situation looks to have really gotten to him.
"Today I initiated a phone conversation with the president of the Russian Federation. The result was silence. Although it's the Donbas where there should be silence." https://t.co/3TLEL5MO1s

If Russia escalates, it will be far more dangerous than 2008, 2014, or 2015. It will be a significant departure from Russia's previous behavior, and Putin will be willing to use even more force than before to achieve his aims, which failed in 2014-2015. It will be unpredictable.

RT @JackDetsch: NEW: Russia has deployed troops and equipment along the tree lines near Kupino, just 11 miles from Ukraine.
U.S. defense officials have said it's part of Russia's "playbook" to put troops and equipment in foliage and populated areas to mask their military buildups.
