confusion and cutting some lines of communication?

I just heard a report that 100,000 Russian troops are massed on the Ukrainian border. If they invade it will put pressure on us and European allies to come the Ukrainians aide, which could mean military action.

That might have to happen as it would be the only way to stop Putin from thinking he can take back old Soviet territory when ever he feels like it.
