No, it just makes it very hard for the US and UK governments to scold the Russian one without them laughing.
Even the Germans cannot seem to get Putin to do a reality check.
Whom do you feel is qualified/going to be able to stop Putin from acting like a bully?
Time. He's starting to look old. Before too long, that hard-man image he has been cultivating will come around to bite him. Also, it is not too good an idea to fill your borders with civil wars.
No, it just means no one takes US moral outrage seriously anymore. Sorry.
