The UA has few combat ready units, all of them around the Donbas/Lugansk region with little if any reserve.

You would think that they would know better than to have a crappy army when you have a border with Russia.

Here in 'Murica we shall not rest if some nation somewhere has not adopted the Swift banking cartel ... er, system. Soon the Ukrainian people will join the rest of us in the yoke of slavery...uh, service to common interests.

They used to have one of the largest, most mobile armed forces in the world. Then they sold all of their equipment, mostly on the Black Market, to Africa and the Middle East. Including their carrier to China - for a "Casino" - but we all know what really happened with that.

"Ah, thank you U-klaine. You give China vewy many secrets of make carrier. Ah, So. Hope Oligarch enjoys money, here is jade statue leward for make deal."

Speaking of China, Ukraine took $3B for grain a year or so ago, has never delivered it. Minimum Wage in Leostho now higher than Ukraine by PPP.

We are ramping up in Syria too. Troops being sent to train up forces to take Raqqa.
Lovely.

I suppose it is a good diversion to economic problems...

Not much of one. I'm sure this administration will get a crisis or an attack. It will be totally mishandled or blatantly capitalized on. The problem (blessing?) may be Trump's credibility may be too far gone by the time it arrives, for it to be used much. One can hope ... anyway.
