The world appears to be sleepwalking into World War III, with U.S. leadership noticeably absent. European leaders are beginning to take the lead in Ukraine, but not in a beneficial way.
Firstly, European leaders are in discussions about whether to send their troops to Ukraine to help direct the fighting.
According to the Express:
Britain and France are in talks to send troops to Ukraine to deter Vladimir Putin, it has emerged.
London and Paris want to create a “core of allies in Europe” as fears intensify that President-elect Donald Trump could withdraw military support for Ukraine.
British and French troops could be among European allies deployed to deter the Kremlin from attacking Ukraine again.
This could make European capitals and military installations legitimate targets in the eyes of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and his generals.
If Putin were to take action against British or French troops beyond the borders of Ukraine, the USA would be required to respond under mutual defense treaties.
This is not mere speculation; a top NATO official recently warned European business leaders to prepare for a wartime scenario.
Hellbound and Down 
I don’t think that NATO has what it takes to go toe to toe with the Russians.
