Key points

The conversation about a no-fly zone shows that Europe is calling Putin's bluff and showing their reaction will not be what he wanted.

Many European countries now have new leaders who have made steps to help Ukraine that they were not making earlier on in the war.
- 3:21
European red lines have been crossed, including giving Ukraine permission to strike targets within Russia with long-range missiles.

Russia's drone incursions give NATO countries a legitimate reason to tell the public that the risks of a no-fly zone are actually worth it.
- 7:04
A partial no-fly zone would free up Ukrainian air defense systems to protect smaller towns where they currently lack protection.

Russia cannot respond to NATO defending Ukrainian airspace because it is impossible for Russia to argue that shooting down targets over Ukrainian airspace was an actual threat to Russia itself.

Is Russia Really Preparing to Attack NATO?
Paul J. Warburg
Russia is unlikely to attack NATO because doing so would open a massive new front while they are already failing in Ukraine. While we should prepare in case we're wrong, we should not fear a Russian attack because it's unlikely to happen.

The war is becoming more of a disaster for Russia every single day. There's a reason that President Zelensky, just a couple days before I recorded this video, sent a letter to Vladimir Putin taunting him, essentially saying exactly that, saying that Ukraine is ready for peace talks whenever Russia is.
