These people foam at the mouth and have little influence.

I have never heard any serious Russia politician claim that the Baltics or Poland should be invaded.

Ukraine and Georgia are fundamentally different (for them), which is why they always have been red lines as pointed out in the Burns diplomatic telegram.
