Thank you!
But the reason, I bring it up, and I do realise that it was 24yrs ago.
But from the end of WWII until then the US, and us, did indeed hold the moral high ground.
We tut-tutted at the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and armed the Taliban, sorry Mujahideen, to resist them.
But when we invaded Iraq, a sovereign nation, and occupied it. We lost any moral authority we thought we had.
If the West can do that, with impunity, why not Russia? (And that question is directed at you Hugh)

Well, since I think both were wrong, I wouldn’t have thought of using it as a justification for supporting what Putin did…
