Mearsheimer was wrong on Russia - iike everyone else.

He's saying that Russia won't invade Ukraine.. haha..

 

[Raven_Rayes]

assuming there are rational actors in a power struggle is the failing of all 'experts'.

6 yrs ago he was right. although no idea how one can make Ukraine 'formally neutral, and build up their economy' without pissing off Russia.

mearsheimer is a dumb b1tch.

basically all large states - 'great powers' as mearsheimer says, fcuk up.

US is no exception, Russia is no exception.

to believe the myth that US could've avoided this skirmish if it just was nicer to dear mr putin is the heights of stupidity. It doesn't square up with mearsheimer's own theory that all states basically try to expand the power as much as possible.

conflict is unavoidable.
