Guardian feed too on current situation.
Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky has also said that he will issue weapons to everyone who wants them, according to state media.
Jesus, they haven't a hope.
Sell when low? Hardly a good money making tactic!
Instead keep an eye out for bargains!
people are leaving poland now ..that is not a good sign
Honestly, I'm concerned about escalation. Hoping against and not expecting it but things can change and unravel bloody quickly.
Take out their air force then continue to roll in the tanks etc
Discretely and off the record offer a bounty for the assassination of Putin.
There are thousands out there with the capability and willingness to take it on, including plenty of mercenaries with vast skills and experience. Some of them would also have contacts in Russia, or be of Russian heritage so actually being in the country to do the deed would not be a problem. Then you have the creme de la creme of the special forces.
Offer 20, 50 or 100m or more. Whatever.
It rids the world of a tyrant and despot, would save countless lives and the world from the carnage that is to come, and I hardly think a new Russian regime would go down the same road as Putin.
America ended a war with a couple of atomic bombs. Russia will end the world with theirs.
The most powerful snipers weapons have an accurate range of well over 4 miles.
I addition to the sanctions, should the world also not start talking about the bill for restitution for all the years of communism that Russia inflicted on the worls?
RT is good for a laugh at the moment.
Mostly peaceful operation requested by Russians in Ukraine.
Plenty of timely cutaways in VT's shown on all other stations.
Putin playing chicken with the international community not being given much coverage for some reason.
Also stating that footage of damage from artillery strikes were recorded by Ukraine in advance to fool the international community.
Looks like the Ukrainian defence near Crimea has completely collapsed. Or else they are retreating to defend inwards.
Probably take out all military and key targets and keep escalating bit by bit.
No rush
That's how they win though, every time a Russian soldier is on the street, drop him.
At brutal cost mind.
The dead eyed psychopath has finally did it. It is murder and he should face a war crimes tribunal for this.
Source?
So are we just going to leave Ukraine be taken by Russia. It will not end there!
Whilst the EU and NATO don't want to escalate how can they stand back and leave an invasion occur.
Every action has consequences but do we not stand for what is "right and just" anymore.
Weak EU/US i suppose..
Link?
You couldn't make it up...
That ticker tape in isolation
There was a rumoured attempt on him a few years back when his "personal chauffeur" was killed in a "freak accident".
North Korea level propaganda
Yes, that's the western view. It's a valid view in it's own right, for western leaning people.
But I also think Russia's perspective has merit too, from their perspective.
Well, the view during the cold war was that both east and west wanted total domination over the other. So if we assume, as you are here, that Russia simply wants total domination over the west... then it is natural to come to the same conclusion with the west.
And of course, the Russians do tend to hold that view. Again they could point to quite a lot of evidence to back up their world view - although we're not allowed to talk about any of that evidence on this thread, because of mob rule on this forum. (even though it's a hugely legitimate part of the narrative)
I will repeat again, I do not like military intervention. So I don't like when either east or west uses military force to get what they want. But unfortunately, historically both sides do it.
That's why I think we've now entered a cold war 2.0
Russia thinks they are in the right. (and they don't really care if the west agrees with them)
And the west thinks they're right. (and they don't give a sh!t what Russia thinks either)
Obviously, I can understand why most people want to focus solely on the side that is presently engaged in the deed... which to be fair is completely understandable, and why I am getting so much flak right now. But, I choose to keep my eyes focused slightly more on the bigger picture. That's just in my nature to think that way.
Denying that there is a bigger picture here, to me is a somewhat obtuse mindset. (but like I said, perhaps understandable in the present circumstances)
The US intelligence leaks have been pretty spot on the last few weeks.
They said Putin wants to create a Russian empire. If so, it won't stop at Ukraine.
uk politician (minority view thus far):
Masks slipping all over the place
Well I hoped this wouldn't happen and it would be stalemate for a while on the borders of the occupied regions but I've woken up to war in Europe, something I thought we were passed in this century.
Great info, thanks!
And are these attacks, missiles sent from Russia? Or would they be planes and helis?
I don't think RT has ever had a mask
I don't think anyone showing support for Putin online could have imagined the sheer levels of insanity he really has.
We've been talking about it for years can called russophobes .
And now look ,lads did you hear Russia invaded ukraine
