No they don’t, but they’ll keep it within the confines of what they think/know they can get away with.

Which, as history shows, is anything they want.

Unless we, or Poland, or anyone else is prepared to respond…………and it will also have be grey in nature……or cause greater issues.

They’ll continue.

Both are wrong. The fallout is the cost of Labour’s failed policies, which have to be paid for somehow.

[EXTRACT]

Russia is preparing for war against NATO warned Poland’s top general after it was hit by a massive gas explosion.

Chief of the General Staff of the Polish Armed Forces Wieslaw Kukula warned that Russia “has begun the period of preparing for war. They are building an environment here intended to create conditions favourable for potential aggression on Polish territory.”


He spoke out as Poland confirmed a key rail link between Warsaw and Ukraine - used for funnelling Western supplies - was blown up in an “unprecedented act of sabotage”. A Russian military attack on Poland would trigger a response under NATO’s Article 5 - likely amounting to a Third World War.

Putin doesn’t like it when it’s done to him, does he? He must know that we know this is all bluff and bluster. Putin doesn’t have the resources to start a Third World War.

Re: Russia has invaded Ukraine

The plan is nuts. Ukraine has to hand over land to Russia that Russia doesn't even control? And cut it's army?

Ukraine has to limit its armed forces size but Russia doesn't even have to guarantee it won't attack again, Russia gets most of its frozen assets back and are accepted back into the G8, security guarantees for Ukraine seem weak, in short this deal could've been written in Moscow its so one sided

It probably was. The Russkies have some incriminating photos of The Donald. The new Mafia now run the USA. Not sure which country is worse.

Canada should invade Alaska, and we should support them, citing Ukraine as a precedent.

Re: Russia has invaded Ukraine

Vitali Klitschko sums it up

“This isn’t a peace plan. It’s a surrender plan.
Imperial russia gets land for its crimes.
Ukraine gets promises, like the security guarantees of 1994, written in disappearing ink.
We don’t need 28 points.
We need one point: russia Go home!”
