Just go take it back, Russia is so wrapped up in the western front they wouldn't be able to mount any kind of defense until it was far too late to hold Siberia.
Too bad democracy won't invade like Putin does because peace is the right thing to do.
Just tell em there's oil.
You mean lithium and titanium
except all the times it did for no reason?
Democracies are a lot like the Romans, they need a casus belli real or imagined before they do war.
There was always a reason. Not always a good one, but a casus belli is still needed.
i can't deny thats true
Wait for …. The Mongols!
If Mongolia is able to muster anything like the force they had when they invaded, it will hardly matter what Russia can mount
Then again, Genghis Khan didn't have guns or tanks or planes.
If Russia keeps it up, they might not have those either.
It sounds like he may actually have been the first to bring them to Europe.

He had birds on fire though.
“NYET LIKE THAT!”

They would just nuke Mongolia.
Given how much Russian nuclear maintenance has gone into hookers and vodka over the last forty years, it's literally anyone's odds as to whether that shit even leaves the pad before it detonates, if it detonates at all.
All Putin can do is turn the key, aim for Mongolia, and hope it's not the loss of an entire local region.
And that's before NATO starts raining down holy hell on him because he just triggered MAD, lol.
It would develop a leak and fall on Moscow.
