    Kiev have now been beaten back from the Eastern parts of the Ukraine and the government is calling for international peacekeepers.

    Would you support Irish soldiers to go and prop up a neo-nazi government?

    Do you actually expect anyone to say they would support troops propping up a neo-nazi government?

    Honest question

    Ukraine should have kept its nukes and played the east and west off each other for the best deal for Ukraine.

    The EU/Europe needs to stop being America's poodle and form its own defence apparatus and foreign policies with its own interests to the fore.

    Op

    Do you actually realise that 70% of the population of of Ukraine are actually Ukrainian ethnic Russians make up 24% of the population .
    Ukrainians want to be free to choose there own path they shown for the 2nd time in 11 years there done with russian boots over them .
    But no you constantly go on about nazis when your worship the biggest living nazi in the world valdamir putin
    .
    How explain why the 24% should decide ukraine is Russian vs the 70% who want to be free

    I thinks it's time to either top up yours meds or return to the motherland and be a poor conscript .

    We would all love to see Irish soldiers propping up a fascist, neo-nazi, foaming at the mouth government.

    Hopefully they'd kill a lot of innocent civilians there so you'd have ammunition for your next rant.

    Next loaded question please.

    Never. We shouldn't support those ultra-nationalist, hyper-aggressive, minority-demonising, politically corrupt....Russians

    And it doesn't even need to spend that much money doing it, both the UK and France have a real Nuclear deterrent.
    The EU needs to work out what its priorities are, its in danger of collapsing and loosing existing members yet it seems willing to pour funding into a non EU country, let the Russians/ethnic Russians slice of a section of Eastern Ukraine in the name of peace and stability territorial integrity can't be argued to be sacrosanct if in the previous decade you have supported breaking those rules (formation of Kosovo)

    The problem with a nuclear deterrent is that it's only a deterrent if you are willing to use it.

    take Estonia. It's part of the EU and NATO. If tomorrow Putin said that he wanted to invade it to "protect Russians" would NATO retaliate with nuclear weapons? I doubt many would be willing to start a nuclear war over it. That means that you need rapidly deployable conventional forces. Especially Air power. So unless you want to have a couple of carriers in the Baltic sea you kinda need some boots on the ground in those countries.

    Would you support an evil sociopath de facto dictator in the kremlin?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,753 ✭✭✭✭Timberrrrrrrr


    The EU needs to roll in the tanks and annihilate the pro Russian forces.

    Yeah


    That would solve all the problems :rolleyes:
