War in Europe

Link to Article

          This article talks about the confrontation over Ukraine. It seems to have taken on a momentum of its own. If somehow the Ukraine crisis ends, the likelihood of a new Cold War developing will drop drastically, but not end. If the crisis in Ukraine deepens (or a crisis elsewhere arises), so will the new Cold War. In other words, Ukraine is central to the direction the encounter will take, but not everything depends on what happens there. Just like the original Cold War, the new Cold War will play out on many stages, and it will not even begin to be resolved until both sides recognize the high costs of the course they are on and decide to tackle the difficult steps leading to a different path.

          This relates to the world because, if there were to be another Cold War, this time we might not be as lucky as the last. The Cold War could turn into a hot war, and destroy half the population of people and world.
