To annex it for Russia?
Well he's not going to do it for the benefit of the ukrainians is he.
No, but I think a more likely scenario is that he simply abandons Ukraine. I don't think he cares about it either way, so why would he send any troops? He'll just ignore what is happening there and that's it.
Nah, he'll do it because Putin wants it and he'll get a "massive trade deal" out of it.
The deal will be to disassemble BRICS and come back to the table of hegemony. All for the low low price of a little piece of land in Europe. And Trump will come out looking like a hero to all business interests because they get to suck on the teat of Eastern money once again.
I think the UN would get very upset about it though. I'm sure he'll try but I really can't see it working the way he thinks it will it's not like the rest of the world is just going to stand by and allow the US to start dictating global policy.
