Russian invasion of Ukraine

[Metal Biker]

Is he serious making the claim that he is righteous in taking Ukraine back as it's, in his opinion, historically Russian?

Right i'm going Spam shopping, buying a gas mask and a geiger counter

 

[Metal Biker]

Fingers crossed he’s speaking now a history of Russia it sounds ominous

Oh yeah. All his talk of "i don't want war" can now be intepreted as "I don't want the US and UK to get involved. Just let me have Eastern Ukraine. Nobody needs to fight"

'peace-keeping'???

Basically state controlled internet.

Russia has just ignored every request to withdraw for the past 30 years. Another Donbas region if you like. Once they're in Ukraine, another excuse to liberate the Russian speakers from the genocide being carried out by the Moldovan government.

Putin the history lecturer is on now.

Shit is about to get real I’m afraid.

I'm expecting some carefully coordinated cyber-attacks over the next few hours. Potentially Twitter/Facebook, and the 'big-four' news agencies along with the BBC could get hit, along with CNI and banking.

I think the word “imminent” can now be used with some confidence.

He has played the West here and NATO.

Sadly there will be immense bloodshed.

 

[Cheesy]

The bloke is a loon. A dangerous loon.

Him being assassinated would be a bonus.

 

[mancityvstoke]

Integral to Russia.............. that's that then

 

[Scottyboi]

Pretty much confirmed all the old soviet countries need to look over their shoulders now.

 

[blueinsa]

Listen to him, calling in the debt he says the independent states owe Russia which says to me he won’t stop with Ukraine.

 

[mancityvstoke]

He looks a proper psycho

"It was a mistake to allow those republics to leave the Russian Empire"
Says a lot.

 

[kippaxwarrior]

So he's literally saying he will not stop until the old Soviet Union is reformed?

 

[AliBobbyJ]

He thinks he's Peter the Great but unlike the Tsar he's not 7' tall.

 

[N1985]

Pretty much. The man as I've said over and over again is the most dangerous person on this planet. If the world was to end it would be at the hands of this man. He should have been done in years ago.

I'd prefer an honest, non-suspicious horse-bucking him off fatality.

That’s my read of what he has said so far but of course, he will soon come across NATO states so he will pick on those he can because he is a bully but I think stop short of ever going up against NATO militarily.

 

[Don Karleone]

Yeah it's gonna kick-off, isn't it.

 

[N1985]

There's literally now only one man that can de-escalate this and bring peace in this situation.

 

[Citizen Green]

This man is going to cause a head on collision with the West not seen since the 60's, madness on so many levels.

I thought this was about Russian influence over the Ukraine given the historical ties between the two, always dismissing those who said he wants a reform of the USSR. Well, it looks very much like he's just come out in the open about his true intentions. Very worrying for European security.
