The Politicus
Assumptions
-
Russia's nuclear weapons sufficiently deter its opponents.
-
Russia suffers from a persecution complex.
Evidence for Russia's fear
-
Russia itself has hankered after buffer zones and states like Belarus and Ukraine.
-
The European Plain makes Russia vulnerable and indefensible, as in past invasions of Russia.
-
From Ukraine, an enemy can cut off Russia's access to the Black Sea and Southern Russia.
My questions
-
But who's itching to invade Russia? Who can even invade Russia sufficiently? Who would risk mutual assured destruction, a nuclear apocalpyse, and human extinction?
-
If the answer to question 6 above is no, then why does Russia still suffer from a persecution complex?
