The problem with Versailles is that It crippled a peaceful German democracy. Economic sanctions should be put on the megalomaniacal Putin to remove Russia's ability to wage war when they're actually waging it and then if he is removed we should support the development of a democratic Russia just as was done to West Germany post WWII
Good shout that and I agree with the last sentence
That’s absolutely true too. Post aggression is a different question. Yep
I think the get out needs to be provided to another member of his inner circle who has the army on side and will remove him tbh
That does strike me as the most likely route to ending this but its hard to gauge what the Russian population in general think of what is happening let alone his inner circle.
Shouldn't have said it was okay for UK individuals to go and fight in Ukraine. That was considered a crime for those who went to fight for or against ISIS. Gives Russia a chance to claim it is some sort of NATO involvement on the ground in Ukraine
She looks well out of her depth but Kremlin probably looking for someone to "blame" to justify their nuke posturing.
He needs to remember these are the same people that say they have invaded ukraine to de-nazify them and remove their drug addled leaders ie we should ignore everything they say as it’s usually bullshit
Truss is just majorly out of her depth - she’s a key cabinet member, so of course they’re going to listen/seize on what she’s said.Do people actually listen to her ?!!
Joking apart I presume this related to Truss not objecting to Uk citizens joining the International Brigade to fight in Ukraine. Unwise/naive comments as it might encourage amateurs going over as freedom fighters and also gives Russia some ammunition when it comes to the propaganda war. We can’t stop people doing this and I’m sure ex military will go over…hardly a nato nation joining the war though
The fact that Russia have seized upon this to try to justify their nuclear threat is ridiculous, however, I heard James O’Brien lapping up their comments and try to make out that Truss is some kind of nuclear war monger
Is it too late for them to say just leave us alone and we promise not to join NATO or the EU? Might counter the excuse of Russia's aggression of feeling threatened. Appreciate that's a climbdown and it it's to an extent giving in to bullies. but it will at the moment save lives and not every bully has an aresnal that could wipe out most of the planet.
Problem is what binding guarantees can be given and whether it stops Russia employing similar tactics in the likes of Moldova & Georgia.
They’re also still active after a ceasefire. When Isreal use them in Gaza they killed almost as many people after the ceasefire as they do during the “conflict”. Usually children too playing on bomb sites.
I dunno, missiles targiting its allies surely includes Belarus etc.
lol you jest! I hope it's a bit more "reliable information" than a previous scare in the 80s' when the sun's reflection on the US bases tripped the "incoming" alarm!
good, see what they done to Kharkiv while holding "peace talks" joke, only way this war ends is if putin is overthrown or killed,
