to be honest i do not really understand the situation at the moment but am curious to know wether there is a good chance of a global war breaking out?? could we actually be bombed and have to shelter away etc?? apologies for not understanding the situation but very curious. |  | | |  |

It depends how far Putin wants to take it, remember he had 2 demands 1) Ukraine never join NATO and 2) those Countries which border Russia and are currently part of NATO ie Poland to stop being part of NATO. Obviously NATO countries weren't going to agree to either.
He'll have control of Ukraine soon and will put in place a Russian friendly government and therefore no.1 has been achieved, the next big question is will he continue to demand NATO pulls out of the other Countries and if no will he attack those if he does then yes you will have WW3 |
To become a "world war" other nations would have to pile in.
Can you see China siding with Russia over Latvia?
What is more likely is that they'd do something silly with Taiwan, thinking the Yanks were distracted.
Equally, the US getting involved over Latvia might persuade the Chinese to leave Taiwan well alone.
It's interesting, but not in a god way. |  | | |

Watching BBC apparently the Baltic countries have Russian minorities within them. It’s pretty obvious what happens next.
One way Russia can start on the next phase is cyber stuff. If for example Russia shuts Poland down that way, (as was suggested on CNBC) does that constitute aggression against a NATO country? Not enough to risk a war the west can’t win. |
Lithuania and Poland actually also sandwich a small Russian enclave |  | | |
