The people of Ukraine know that "ordinary Russians want us to freeze to death."
The people in other eastern European countries have never let up on their distrust, if not outright hatred, of Russia. The politicians in western Europe feel less threatened, because most of them have had no first-hand experience with Russian brutality. So they think that they can deal with the bear that seeks to devour Europe.
And then, in this country, we have Russian sycophants such as the Asset, Tuckyo Rose and Russia's favorite American girl, Tulsi Gabbard. Whether they were bought, bribed, or just hate democracy is open to question.
The brutality and inhumanity of Russians will be told and retold by those with first-hand experience into the 22nd Century.

I expect that Russia, as a going concern, is on its last legs. Siberia will be sliced off to China, perhaps as part of a deal with the West to drop claims to Taiwan. The various ‘Stan’s will end up handing together with a bunch or trans-Ural Russia into a CIS clone, confederated, but very loosely. Poland, Ukraine, Belarus, the Baltics, Finland and Norway will all gain some territory and a small core territory of Moscow will form the last remanent of old Russia. The majority of the nukes will be traded off to the U.S. and China, for ostensible destruction (more on that later, depend how China goes), in exchange for aid in these transition.
China will give up its Taiwan aspirations simply because Siberia is a resource and land deal well beyond anything Taiwan can provide, except developed industry, but Taiwan would be a nasty pill to digest, where Siberia would go down easy, a key growing concern for the current Chinese leadership, and be better in the long term because of providing a claim to the Arctic Ocean floor resources.
Things didn't turn out so well for the Russian ruling class the last time they pissed off the peasantry. Wasn't all that long ago either, hundred years. History only repeats to those paying attention.
CP, you aren't taking into account the need for our Christian senior citizens need to sit down after supper and turn on Tuckem's. The satisfied nodding of heads all across the land as he asks questions, then answers them. The fact that God anointed 2, the Donald and the Vlad to bring about Christs return. The destruction of Voldomort Zelinski must be accomplished, so say the prophesizer's and speechefyier's. But irrationality aside I do like your version more.
Seafury, fuck if I like my version better. China with Siberia, if they can keep a grip on the peasants, is certainly worse than the current devil we know in Moscow. Unfortunately, your version judges the American populace correctly.
The Chinese outnumber the Russians in Siberia already if I'm not mistaken.
Isn't this where Kissinger and Mearsheimer come from?

I wonder if watching the Tuckyo Rose Show is an indicator of senility.
Jon, the best figures out there put far eastern Siberia at about 4 million, and the Chinese at a peak of 200,000 around 2000. Since then, increasing Russian pressure has reduced the numbers to 70,000, excluding transient and tourist populations. However, the Russians and their media consistently overstate the numbers and the threat to mobilize the good “Russians” against the Chinese.
Siberia as a whole is closer to 25-30 million, and 80-85% Slavic. However, that doesn’t stop the Chinese looking at Siberia with bad intent.

Good, bad or indifferent, it is the end of the Old World Order.
It was/is inevitable: one straw, doesn't matter which one, it only takes one straw to break the camel's back. We can/could not continue as we were. We're ninety seconds from midnight on the atomic clock. Russia cannot control what it claims, and if her history were any guide will exhaust her limited resources and implode, leaving a vacumn. The Asians are already ascendent; China claiming (or reclaiming) Siberia and Japan (and a perhaps reunified Korea) reclaiming the islands is easy to see. There's no one else in any good position to do otherwise.
If we take a step back and look at it crosswise, give a moment's thought to what's really important, Siberia, like Yukon and the Northwest Territories ... Greenland and Antarctica, are prime real estate for a migration fleeing no longer habitable places. It won't be stopped. It can't be stopped.
Physics is everything, everything is physics. “Wheels coming off” implies momentum; momentum implies an anticipation where the wheels will go ...
