Russia-Ukraine War (continuing)

Also, there is something happening on the Kola peninsula:

A series of satellite images revealed a considerable stationing of Russian military aircraft at the Olenya air base, located on the Kola peninsula in northwestern Russia.

Recent images showed 10 Tu-95MS bombers, designated Bear-H by NATO, along with 35 Tu-22M3 bombers, known as Backfire-C. In addition, five An-12 transport aircraft, three Tu-134UBL trainer aircraft, designated Crusty, and four Mi-8 helicopters, designated Hip, were present.

This gathering of 45 aircraft in one place has raised concerns about Russia's intentions, especially in light of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and the proximity of the Olenya base to NATO's borders.

Would more assume that they are moving them as far away from Ukraine as possible so they aren’t hit

oh look it, predictably enough not many want to spend billions on potential junk

These things need constant maintenance. So if you can't get spares it's essentially an off switch. Same when Russia stole a load of plans at the start of the war. They could run them for a while but pretty soon they weren't airworthy and any country bar Russia wouldn't fly them.

These demands would amount to victory for Russia, plain and simple. I'd be surprised if they were accepted but unfortunately Trump is president.

He wants zappranesia (spelt wrong) power plant ,biggest nuclear power plant in Europe, if not the world,

They all voted to be Ukrainian before being invaded though didn't they. If they spoke russian, irish or martian is meaningless in a democracy and that's the real reason russia invades. Democracy is pesticide to a mafia ran oligarchy like russia. They are terrified it will wake up their soul crushed peasants.

as long as Putin is in power, Russia will continue to attack Ukraine, and Ukraine will continue to defend itself. I think we all know this.

This Trump thing is just a sideshow, both sides trying to show how much they both want peace. Talk of a “peace deal” with Russia is very naive. But eventually this Trump initiative will die a death and Ukraine still needs to defend itself.

They are already poking NATO.

Last month a drone hit an apartment block in Estonia (someone important just happened to live there - what are the chances eh?), drones on a number of occasions have crashed in Romania, missiles regularly cross Polish airspace (one killed a polish farmer after being shot down by Ukrainian air defence), arms warehouses exploding in Bulgaria, numerous attacks on organisations in the UK aiding Ukraine, assassinations throughout Europe, numerous ship anchors ripping data cables, Russian military aircraft entering NATO airspace acting as a menace (they got their comeupance when the Turks shot down a Russian fighter jet).

The aforementioned are just a few examples of Russia testing NATO countries.

More of putin's terrorist state oil infrastructure catches fire overnight.

Refusal by putin to accept an unconditional ceasefire to pave the way for talks should be seen as a green light for escalating supply of weapons to Ukraine so they can remove putin's terrorists from their country completely and bring the war to an end with a strong Ukraine able to defend itself from future moskovyte aggression.

We speak English so should be part of the UK? Whats language got to do with it.

All of the volunteers involved in the Easter Rising would have spoke English........it didn't exactly make them sympathetic to British/English causes.

Hell, there's russian speaking russians fighting russia

Then Ukraine and Europe would likely have to stand on their own two feet militarily, right away…
