TASS: Russia simply has "nowhere to retreat" if US weapons appear in Ukraine — Putin 

The Russian president also stressed that the deployment of the US' weapons in Ukraine may push Kiev to attack Crimea 

MOSCOW, December 21. /TASS/. The United States and its allies need to understand that Russia simply "has nowhere to retreat" if its weapons appear in Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Tuesday at an expanded meeting of the Defense Ministry board.

"They [the US] simply do what they want. But what they are doing on the territory of Ukraine now, or trying to do and going to do — this is not thousands of kilometers away from our national border. This is at the doorstep of our home. They must understand that we simply have nowhere to retreat further," Putin said.

Strawman argument.

Putin is simply setting up a justification for war, his pretext.

If the Americans put tanks in Ukraine and drove for Moscow, Putin would simply unleash nukes.

I have seen nothing about the American political establishment or oligarchy that tells me they are bent in conquering Russia.

Putin always let the uncertainty which is strategically the right way. The West said what we aren't going to do which is the worst way.
