Poking the Bear may not end well.
Who is poking the bear? The bear is trying it on with someone who happened to fight back.
The bear is utterly depressing.
You do realize a massive number of ethnic Russians in the East and South have been in conflict in the area for years.
With Ukrainian Nationalists who clear as day support Nazi, because they hated Stalin etc.
Google videos showing how ethnic Russians in that area have been treated bad. And or branded as “traitors”
So Russia steps in on call. Pro Zelensky call them invaders.
NATO influence looks to put weapons on Russias border for awhile (don’t compare other countries as they’ve been NATO for awhile and a completely different situation I.e massive number of ethnic Russians in eastern and southern Ukraine)
How would U.S feel if Russia started putting nukes and weapons on Mexicos border?
U.S wouldn’t like it to say it lightly.
It’s a complex situation obviously. To go around and say Ukraine nationalists with support from Ukraine are innocent is outrageous.
Ukraine hasn’t done Jack squat to defuse the conflict there. They’ve been ramping up

um, you are rather wrong. people vote to secede a lot more often then you apparently realize. in fact, now that i think about it, Quebec is pretty much due for yet another vote to separate. they do so every few years. they just have not yet gotten enough votes, even with all their intimidation tactics. and western Canadian provinces have been making noise lately about separating (in a large part due to Quebec). and if you recall history, the US has had some states secede, which resulted in one of the worst civil wars when the rest of the US attacked to force them back into the union.

What are they going to do? Nuke Russia back? I don't think so.
More sanctions? Russia doesn't care about sanctions. They've shown that already.
Europe wants to commit suicide and not buy Russian energy? Russia doesn't care, it is selling to China and India anyway, and they need more and more every passing day. India in particular has hundreds of millions of people still in poverty, as it grows economically more people will come out of poverty, same thing that happened in China.
How many people in China and India combined again?

All it takes is just one nuclear laden hypersonic to get through. Then it doesn’t really matter what anyone thinks about parachutes.

Doesn't have the yield anywhere close to Tsar Bomba, or range to hit the country who is going to level the whole country shortly afterwards
Let Russia Threat away though, its making an all out Preemptive nuclear strike on Russia way more likely
And whose going to do that? There is no way the US is going to strike Russia unless Russia puts nukes on our soil, not gonna happen

The US are most likely to stage a false flag first, to give them the "justification" of doing so.

Why should Ukraine defuse the conflict?
They've been invaded by Russia, they didn't invade Russia.

If Russia used nukes not a single thing would happen to them.
