Russia - threadbanned users in OP

The US are to deploy 2000 troops to Poland and move 1000 from Germany to Romania , announced earlier

If small nations are going to start being annexed again, perhaps Ireland has a new reason to be fearful, the last thing we need is a new age of consolidation. I was more in the camp of balkanisation and globalisation, a kind of nationalism in culture only with a one world nation.

The Russians have moved the 130 national guard unit from Siberia to the Ukrainian border the 130 the specialise in public order and suppression of protests..

Must mean the 'imminent' invasion is 'imminent'...

After a bit of training in Kazakhstan?

2000's Moscow has journalists murdered, political opposition murdered, poisoned and imprisoned. Putinbots: "..."

2000's The Kremlin carries out assassinations and attacks with polonium/nerve agent foreign soil. Putinbots: "Wasn't Putin, and so what, they deserved it"

2000's Election interference in multiple countries, troll factories. Putinbots: "Didn't happen, anyway the US did this during the Cold War"

2011 Russia directly supports Assad in Syria. Putinbots: "So what, the US invaded Libya"

2014 Moscow breaks accords, annexes territory and helps rebels seize S East Ukraine. Putinbots: "So what, Iraq"

2022 Moscow deliberately increasing it's forces around Ukraine. Putinbots: "Lol, nothing will happen, besides this is the West's fault"

Putin, always the victim never the aggressor ;)

You are utterly shameless. You should change your name to The Lie.

They are not my words and well you know it...I've asked you several times to post the evidence and you've yet to do so.

You posted this so could you explain the first sentence about ‘restoring historical Russia’

What exactly is historical Russia?

They could be annoyed about fact the govt. here had the temerity to belly-ache to them about running a drill with their navy using weapons inside the Irish EEZ.

We're very small fry after all, not a "Great Power" like Russia, we don't get a say in such matters and our opinions are not welcome.

In spirit of comment I posted on this thread a long time ago (before Christmas), I wonder would any of the Irish Putin lovers (on either end of the political spectrum) like a switcheroo with a Baltic state, or perhaps Sweden or Finland to be nearer to Mother Russia and its wise leader?

Might sound a bit mad here but rather that waiting for a Russian invasion when it suits Putin why not strike first? Their forces are bunched up along the border and might be knocked out by airstrikes by the US and Western allies. It wouldn't be expected and Hitler did similar at the start of his Russian campaign putting the greater of the Red army out of action in 3 weeks.

My god, I say 'your position' and you then go on a rant against me and will no longer engage with me. Either you're completely over reacting or being utterly disingenuous I don't know which.
