Current Affairs Ukraine

[davek]

WTF were the Ukrainian military claiming that for. Talk about own goals.

Russia’s defence ministry on Tuesday released footage showing Viktor Sokolov, the commander of the Black Sea fleet, attending a defence board meeting via video call, a day after Ukraine claimed that Sokolov was killed in an attack on the headquarters of Russia’s Black Sea fleet in Sevastopol.

In a video published by the defence ministry, Sokolov was shown apparently taking part in a video conference with the defence minister, Sergei Shoigu, and other top admirals and army chiefs.

Ukraine’s special forces said on Monday they had killed Sokolov, Moscow’s top admiral in Crimea, along with 33 other officers in a missile attack last week that was timed to coincide with a meeting of naval officials.

Such esteemed company you keep @Kev The Rat and @davek

Lol. Do you actually think the view that Nato has expanded and that Ukraine was the next country to fall in with them is confined to a handful of people...and that it wasn't a factor in the Russian invasion...

Incredible.

westminister could go some way to a properly back hander here...(not a pay off)
"Great Britain has guaranteed Polish borders previously, and we had hoped and prayed we would never have to do similar in the face of naked fascism and bloodthirst ever again, sadly these new threats from russia force our hand, and with some regret we reaffirm our allegiance to our Polish brethren once again, any attack on them is an attack on us and should any foreign force do such, a state of war will exist between us".

Get that memo across fast!

Regarding the Canadian parliament gaffe:

The Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center for Holocaust Studies also called for Rota to step down.

The center said in a statement:

While we acknowledge his apology, Speaker Rota’s decision to invite a former member of the Waffen-SS, notorious for its involvement in Holocaust atrocities, to Canada’s Parliament has left a stain on our country’s venerable legislature with profound implications both in Canada and globally.
This incident has compromised all 338 Members of Parliament and has also handed a propaganda victory to Russia, distracting from what was a momentously significant display of unity between Canada and Ukraine. It has also caused great pain to Canada’s Jewish community, Holocaust survivors, veterans and other victims of the Nazi regime.

Trouble in the world’s bread basket: Bracing for global food insecurity

As energy concerns multiply due to the war in Ukraine, another troubling prospect is emerging: global food insecurity.

climate-diplomacy.org

"Ukraine and bordering parts of Russia are home to the famous mineral-rich ‘black soil’ that provides the perfect growing conditions for grains, giving the region its fame as the ‘world’s bread basket’."

Hell of a bargaining chip when turning the tide against democracy in say, African countries...

To be fair, they need some Lebensraum...
