“The amount of naivety in the West is staggering, when it comes to dealing with Russia. The majority of Russians live their whole life by pushing others. It starts from childhood, permeates in every aspect of their lives and never ends. If you don’t push back, they will push you all eternity.

“Pushing back is no escalation, it is necessary. Sanctions are good, but they are not enough, let alone talks. You won’t convince Russians to make peace, you have to make them. Mikhail Khodorkovsky makes this point clear ...

“I’m always fascinated when people refuse to accept the simple answer: military force can only be stopped with military force.”

Kind of correlates with something I saw here once:

The French will die for love.
The British will die for honor
The Americans will die for freedom
The Russians will die.
