Queen of Procrastination
A few weeks ago Putin showed off his weird sense of humor again. Out of nowhere he stationed troops in the Crimea area, which is a little region in the southern part of Ukraine. The international community was shocked, and the UN tried to bribe Putin into retreating his troops. But he refused.
Now, a few weeks later, the world kind of accepted the Crimea is part of Russia again. But it doesn't stop there. Pro-Russian militia's are taking in land outside of the Crimea. Putin stated that, if Ukraine would fight back, he would send the military their way. but Ukraine is obviously not going to sit back and let this happen.
Will this lead to a second Cold War? Or even WWIII? It's hard to imagine, but if Russia and Ukraine are going at war, the United Nations will have to step in. And that Russian-Ukrainian war is getting closer and closer. The Ukrainian government stated that, if the pro-Russian militia don't drop their weapons by tomorrow 8am local time, they will start fighting back. And that will be the sign for Putin to get his troops involved as well.
