Since at least WWII russia has threatened war with every leader it’s had. It’s only just now being viewed as a terrorist state, but realistically we can trace that mindset back to Stalin. I wouldn’t mind Finland, Japan, Ukraine, maybe a handfull of others carving russia up.
Who would stop him?
Other countries. It would only be legal if everyone else considers it legal.
