I’ll make a prediction. Russia will back off, slowly, and with ‘when I’m ready’ attitude. The Friedman article I linked earlier lays it out pretty clearly. We played a half-baked game of encroachment and we got called. If my guess is right, Putin and Co. will play a long game and use the intimidation factor to get concessions from other recently independent border states.
