Antony Blinken worried that Ukraine retaking Crimea is where Putin may do something he hasn't done yet out of desperation; the proverbial "red line". He suggests that Russia is currently still exercising restraint and that a Crimean offensive would result in "wider" action.
However, he states he and the US won't stop them if they decide to do so, but expressed concern it isn't a wise move.

Oh look Yuppie is back on the nuclear scare again... shocking.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death
nah it's not nukes; otherwise, they would say they would both intervene and prevent them from retaking Crimea.
It's more when he said "a larger Russian response" it seems to suggest Russia is holding back something else that would not warrant US intervention, but turn the tides against Ukraine.
What that is I wish I knew.
What will Putin do or pull out, exactly, to make sure he doesn't lose Crimea with what you said in mind? As you said, it will be his end if he loses it, but Blinken suggested it would be unwise if Ukraine attempted an offensive to retake it.
What does that mean? If they're kicking Russia's ass so thoroughly, they should just go for it.

You mean he wants more money...the US shared the costs.
You realize that between bots and idiots like yourself, it's incredibly easy to influence social medias algorithms to make a certain topic trend?
Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if you were a team Jorge bot.

Belarusian dictator Alexander Lukashenko claims he will only send Belarusians into the battle against Ukraine if they attack Belarus.
Commentators speculate what this could imply in regards to whether it's preparing a false-flag attack - or if Lukashenko just flat-out admitted insubordination to Putin.
Lukashenko did that almost a year ago already when Belarus did not join Russia in the attack. And numerous times since then Belarus has refused to attack Ukraine.
This is nothing new to anyone but you.

So Lukashenko isn't loyal to Putin at all? This sounds straight-up like "not my business fam" for the most part.
I'm just surprised because Lukashenko should know better than anyone what Putin does to people that slightly inconvenience him - let alone say "no." Like Prigozhin in particular has some serious tensions going on with Putin, and it seems like he's panicking over losing said tensions.
