Lithuania just started blockading the Kaliningrad Region, a russian enclave between Lithuania and Poland, citing “EU sanctions”. Now no trains or trucks carrying commercial goods are allowed to go to Kaliningrad Region from Mainland Russia. Russia warned Lithuania of “serious consequences” if they continued this, saying that their response “will have a serious negative impact on the lithuanian people”. Shits getting real.

    I think Russia has to commit at this point yea

    The West is throwing Lithuania at China and Russia and if China has pushed back, Russia will have to too or it wouldn’t make sense to invade Ukraine but let such a pathetic little country blockade you

      Yep. China will certainly not mind seeing the Lithuanians get put in their place, they’ve been acting very rudely lately.

      All that Russia needs to do is lay out a proper legal case, cross its t’s and dot its i’s to make it rock solid according to intl. law.

      The Americans and Europeans will lose their collective minds and there will be talk of NATO intervention, but ultimately the big players who can actually do anything about it will chicken out and it will further undermine NATO unity and expose it for the paper tiger that it is. Poland are the only ones crazy enough to actually try to intervene, and when they do they will get a thorough spanking and be sent running with their tail between their legs back to their own borders. Besides, most of Europe’s military stocks are depleted anyway, all blown up in Ukraine.

          Poland was literally runned over by an army of tanks, collapsed on 1 month, trusted the fr*nch to protect their borders (big rookie mistake), now they are wanting to repeat history?

            Tbf it doesn’t matter about Polands capability but rather that they’re now part of NATO

        Yeah, Pooland is the only one so deranged in mind by their Russophobia that they will literally kill themselves trying to do whatever they want to do.

      That country has US nukes behind them. That is the main (albeit not sole) reason they act as bold as they do. Methinks it’s intentional too. If you’ll excuse Reddit tier analogy, this is akin to street gangs sending the youngest and scrawniest member to harass a mark, before ganging up on them “in self defense”.
