The implications are far more serious. Russia has effectively provided a pretext for invasion. Where only a handful of countries previously supported, it has now got three times as that many questioning other intentions.
They can float whatever propaganda they want dismissing it. But doubt could easily increase more, when shortages soon demand choices.
It was not that much of a secret we had labs there, we have labs all over including China and the labs info was on the various govt websites for years. Yeah the dumb press tried to deny it but I don't think many others were exactly shocked. I also really really doubt Russia invaded for that reason, they are just using some conveniently provided opportunities to make the USA look bad.
It's a pretext for invasion. Do you want that joining Nato. On your border. Hence any demilitarisation. It is raising huge questions further dividing opinion.
Where a handful of countries supported Russia invading, now more than 3 times as many are questioning any other intentions. But on policy like sanctions. Try to keep up.
I don't care, I am neutral, until nationally we get into a hot war. Then I support my nation. But at which point was it considered an opportunity? What is it causing.

" Try to keep up."
No need to be a dick about it.
