        Well yes but it’s a bit different if you have north Koreans Vs Ukrainians or a world war where Russia moves into Poland and China into Taiwan.

          It’s really only different for two reasons:

          1. That side already has access to nukes.
          2. Russian propaganda.

          France and the UK could absolutely dedicate expeditionary forces.
