I don't think they can afford or that they desire war with Europe.
But I wouldn't be surprised if Europe stages a false flag so it has pretext for an all out conflict.

Didn't they recently cut undersea communication and power cables in Europe?

Ah yes because Russia did not attack Ukraine until it was struck first. Except it did.

Edit: or Chechnya. Or Georgia.

Chechnyan terrorists attacked first. Georgia attacked first. NATO overthrew Ukraine's government first (twice). The fascist coup regime in Ukraine attacked the Donbass first.
