Except, the West has done all of these, and we still seem to be here.

Russia probably can't trust their nuclear weapons anyway, nothing else they have military wise is maintained after all

Re: Russia has invaded Ukraine
You can be sure that at least the one of those aimed at us will get through.

Re: Russia has invaded Ukraine
Why would they waste an expensive missile (or three) on a Country that is already going under?

Anyway it's a valid point, the UK seems to be fast becoming the dumping ground of Europe (if not the World) . . which I believe was talked about (quietly, so as not to upset the easily panicked people) a few years ago.

Quote:
Poland's prime minister has said an explosion on a railway line leading to the Ukraine border this weekend was caused by "an unprecedented act of sabotage", and vowed to catch those responsible "regardless of who their backers are".
Visiting the scene this morning, Donald Tusk said the damage done to the railway tracks on Sunday was deliberate and likely aimed at blowing up the train. He expressed relief there were no casualties.
Speaking later in Warsaw, after an emergency meeting of security officials, Poland's special services minister said there was a "very high chance" that the blast was carried out on the orders of "foreign services".

Behind closed doors at least, I hope the leaders of European nations understand and accept that we are in fact already at war with Russia.

well actually, if your Country has a shortage of Jobs, Housing, and facing a growing problem with Food & Water due to an ever growing population that also needs Health Care and Education (which are also feeling the squeeze), it seems a decent enough way to solve a few problems . . as long as all parties involved don't go overboard and start throwing nukes about

NATO I would hope have done van assessment of other potential “legitimate” targets.

By that interpretation of the Russian perspective, any weapon production site* in the UK that has produced munitions being used in Ukraine's defence against the Russian invasion could be regarded as a legitimate target...
*(Stevenage - Storm Shadow missiles, Belfast - Martlet missiles, Sheffield - artillery barrels, Bolton - RAVEN Ground Based Air Defence Systems and Brimstone 2 missiles, East Anglia - Ukrainian Army training, etc., etc.)
