Again, the braveness of these people shouldnt go unnoticed

Come on Russia, rise up.

 

[Spadge Vernacular]

Donbas isn’t enough

What more do you want, Kev?

 

[CharliePotato]

Everyone has been invaded. The Romans were not removed from SWIFT when they came to the U.K. Nor were the Vikings on their many raids.……

Is right la.

What more do you want, Kev?

Putin obviously wants commitments on the eu and nato

There was a piece on the news on Irish TV earlier about expat Ukrainians flying to Poland from Ireland and making their way to Ukraine to go and fight. Unbelievably brave and heart breaking having to leave family in Ireland possibly never seeing them again.

I saw also the French foreign legion have told Ukranian conscripts they are free to go back and fight in Ukraine.

Like I said, is this a case of pro-Russian rather than pro-Putin? Things are starting to unravel very quickly as he'll be looking to appoint a yes man.

No, he'll be looking to appoint someone that doesn't make false promises. It's evident that the general staff had an overly rosy view of how an invasion would go, didn't have the troops at full readiness and made some substantial mistakes with logistics.

That gets generals and marshals fired in Moscow, whether it's the Soviet Union or Russia.

The universe where the West starts hammering out a stable security structure before the shooting stops does not exist. The framework of a settlement would have to be in place to get a cease-fire, and this won't be part of it.

Only then will the Western diplomats start trying to hammer out the long-term order with Putin's diplomats, and you can bet they'll have orders to drive a hard bargain.

Well they won’t be handing over Donbas either before the shooting stops

Apparently Boudica lobbied hard for it but the Goths wanted to sell black eyeliner to the Romans so it was vetoed

What about Afghanistan, Iran, Ireland?

The un really sat on their hands through the 1801 annexation of Ireland.

Mate the Ottomans ruled us for 500 years, doing horrible acts of brutality. The UN? Nowhere in sight.

Also in Croatia, according to news, there is bunch of volunteers going (or already there) https://www.total-croatia-news.com/politics/60642-first-croatian-volunteers

There was already a lot of our guys there in 2014

The demonstrators sing this beautiful Ukrainian song, chokes me up every time I hear it.

C'mon oligarchs. Join in on the side of righteousness for once.
