Humanitarian aid is slightly different to military aid

IMO the 'he said, she said' comments from both sides are nothing more than yet more provocative guff and bluster . . . we should all realise that a military convoy won't get hit until it's actually in Ukraine.*

You mean like humanitarian corridors being attacked during a supposed cease fire?

Re: Russia has invaded Ukraine

Moscow officials say that western sanctions could lead to the International Space Station (ISS) crashing. It's claimed that these measures could 'Disrupt the operation of Russian vessels servicing the ISS. The Russian section of it weighs 500 tons and helps to correct it's orbit'.

Whether this is correct or simply more Russian lies/scaremongering, I have no idea.

Re: Russia has invaded Ukraine

We keep being told how the Russian invasion is a complete cluster puck, how they’ve lost so many men and assets etc. Yet they are still continuing and advancing. Ukraine cannot win this. It’s not about if, but about when, Russia will depose Zelenskyy.

As I have said from the start. I foresee no scenario in this operation where Putin doesn’t achieve most of his objectives.

And if that does happen, I can foresee years of insurgency against the puppet government and occupying troops - another Afghanistan, but with shorter supply chains…

Absolutely, this will become another Afghanistan for Russia. One that they will find very hard to afford financially.

On a lighter note, many companies will start to change Chicken Keiv's to Chicken Kyiv's.
