What makes it even scarier is the Russian economy is in the toilet and to a certain type of leader distracting the population is by raising nationalist feeling thru conflict.Unfortunately when the EU collapses we will not be immune as we will be so tied into it, even though we are not in the Euro. We may well come out of it better than some countries as we, at present, have a stronger economy with less unemployment than most of the EU.
The more scary aspect will be what Russia does when it sees the EU in trouble, I suspect they will do whatever they can to hasten its demise so it can pick through the pieces either by a Crimea type act, or just by economic power.
Whatever the result of the referendum I think there are some very interesting and downright scary things to come if we are not careful.
Have to add i think both the EU and Nato have been very provocative with their attempts to bind the East European states into their "orbit"
