If I were in their shoes, rightly or wrongly, I would be infuriated at having had my enemies armed by my own enemies, and would likely only escalate my acts, and then galvanise my resolve not to lose this war, "whatever it takes".
That's a very dangerous for everyone mode for the Russians to be in.
I do empathise with the Ukrainians under fire. No one wants to be in a war and i wonder what the true motivation for all of this is.
If you were in their shoes Thry, I doubt whether you would have invaded your neighbour's property, even if he had a better pool and veggie garden.
