I honestly don’t know what is going to happen with this attack on the Russian consulate in Lviv, Ukraine. But the argument could definitely be made that it is the fig leaf necessary for Putin to invade Ukraine.
And, yet, for it to happen tonight EST, something would have to change big time. Hostile attacks against Ukraine on the part of the Russians would have to escalate VERY SOON to the point that we all sit up and take notice. Cyber attacks. Increased artillery barrages. I honestly don’t know enough about how things would go down. I guess it’s possible that all hell would just suddenly break loose sometime late evening today EST?
Or maybe nothing is going to happen.
It could be I’m way overthinking things. The actual attack was minimal, so lulz. The only reason why one might think it was a casus belli is, well, we all on edge and it would definitely make sense for something like this to happen right before a major invasion of Ukraine.
It really could go either way at the moment. It could be that nothing is going to happen, just as I have come to assume. But the next few hours will be telling.
