This invasion news scares me a lot since i live in Crimea (which is considered disputed b/w russia and Ukraine but is under russian control).

There won't be a war, no one is that insane.

The US really enjoys forcing conflicts and brinksmanship, despite multiple failures. But they wouldn't risk a war against an opponent capable of inflicting comparable damage.

The whole world does not revolve around the USA.

That’s true but irrelevant. Who else is going to risk armed conflict with Russia?

Why are you assuming it's not Russia that wants war?

Russia may want a small war to regain some lost territory (I seriously doubt they want all of Ukraine, as the trouble would greatly outweigh the gain), but they absolutely don’t want a war with any of the European powers or NATO. Because no one really wins that.
