I won’t pretend to be a foreign policy expert and have no idea if Russia intends to invade Ukraine (again, that is. It annexed Crimea and supported proxy forces in the eastern Donbas region in 2014.)
One thing that is clear is that the spectre of conflict has revealed splits within the Western alliance. Most notably between the US and Germany (over arms and energy) as well as France, which wants an enhanced role for the EU.
