Well here we go...I would not be surprised if the invasion begins under the pretenses of this exercise (They have done it before), if there going to invade now would be the probable time to do it. If they don't do it this time I am going to guess they are waiting for one more or one very serious battle to break out between Ukrainian forces and Pro Russian forces, as Russia has threatened very recently they will use military force if there interests are threatened. Ukraines foreign minister has stated that they are ready to fight the Russians at this point, if this actually goes through I am hoping for the U.S. and NATO to start supplying equipment to Ukraine, we can't just let the Russians get away with an invasion of that magnitude. This has been said many times but Ukraine will not be able to fight Russia alone and win, they will definitely do better than Georgia but they will not be able to win.
Thoughts?

Big effing deal. They had the exercises earlier as well.
