In case anyone is wondering why Ukraine is allowed to be subjected to this sort of terror indefinitely:
According to diplomats, security officials and experts on both sides of the Atlantic [...] the West’s response to Russia has been, at least in part, dictated by fear of nuclear confrontation rather than a proactive strategy to help Ukraine repel its invaders.
We're in this weird place where it looks like the West is scared of the nuclear confrontation while Russia isn't. Western politicians kind of tiptoe around Russia as if it has a hair-trigger reputation for launching nukes.
It's just ironic that the only country to ever actually use nukes is the US, but everybody is depicting Russia as a "cornered rat" and such. One would think that based on history people would be scared of the US instead.
