Hybrid warfare: Putin is doing it right

Littlelinger had it right:
VID

Romania: Latest case in point. An obscure fringe guy running on an openly neo-fascist, pro-Putinist platform is now in the driving seat to win the presidential election, threatening to cancel all efforts from Europe to fortify its eastern flank against Russia:
LINK

Georgia: The country has declared its willingness to get closer to the West, join NATO, and get away from Russia's sphere of influence. In response, Putin interferes in the election and installs his crony at the helm; people protest but the damage is done:
LINK

Hungary: Orban is Putin's buddy, has been used as Russia's useful idiot on multiple occasions to torpedo any efforts by Europe to help Ukraine:
LINK

Serbia: Putin's best ally in the West Balkans, continuously used as a proxy against a possible integration of the region into Europe and NATO:
LINK

Trump: Aided by Putin's trolls in the latest election, of course Trump has expressed his doubts about continuing military aid for Ukraine and has expressed his willingness to "end the war" (we all know what that means):
LINK

And what is the West doing in response to all that? Bending over to Putin and pulling its collective pants down. That's what.

Tell me honestly. We're fucked over here, aren't we?
Well yes we are:

Very much reminds you of Europe just before WW2, right?

Boris Pistorius is not wrong. The only thing Putin and his battered populace will respond to or respect is military power.
