    He’d rather be beaten to a pulp by NATO than admit he’s losing to Ukraine. He’s been provoking NATO into retaliation and calling it an unprovoked attack but they’re not biting and are happy to let Ukraine humiliate him some more. The desperate move left is to actually attack a NATO country outright. That it needs to come to this.

      You seem sure that NATO would respond in a effective way to an attack on any of its allies instead of just calling emergency meetings, strongly opposing things and considering sanctions. Personally, seeing how NATO did absolutely nothing after multiple previous attacks on its members I have my doubts.

      He’d rather have his entire population beaten to a pulp by NATO you mean. He doesn’t give a shit what happens to his people, for as long as he doesn’t show a moment of weakness that would result in him falling out of a window.
