Putin is ready to jump right in.

Putin seems to be interested in the Caucuses, particularly Ukraine as
a land bridge to his bases in Crimea but he doesn't seem very
interested in jumping into any of the places where we are fighting. He
is smarter than that. They learned their lesson in Afghanistan, a
lesson that went right over our head.

Stay the hell out and let these people kill each other. It is none of
our business. Their main beef with us is that we are in their country.
If we left, they would turn back to killing each other and forgets
about us.

When the Russians were there, a US reporter interviewed a mujahideen
fighter. The fighter said it was good the Russians were there. Otherwise
we would be killing each other.
