Russian invasion of Ukraine

From another non-football forum i go on, one of the blokes on there was explaining that his Mrs runs a scout/cub group. One of the young lads there is Russian, and another is Ukrainian.

Russian kid was in absolute floods of tears because he thought they were gonna ban him from attending the group.

Ukrainian kid also in tears because he thought he wouldn't get to see his (russian) mate.

Sorta brings home the reality

That’s so sad.

The worst thing about war is the children caught up in it.

Same as the rest of Europe would be a start. Why is Abramovich allowed the benefit of his assets here when they're being seized elsewhere?

Then we could give the same access to refugees the rest of Europe is.

I agree Abramovich's assets should be seized here, what else are Europe doing that we aren't apart from continuing to buy Russias oil and gas to fund Putins war. I don't really get the correlation between sanctions the UK are applying and refugee access TBH.
 
It’s genuinely amazing that since the pictures of the Stingers arriving on Thursday there has been 6 or 7 videos of different Russian planes going down after a few days of nothing since the ghost of Kiev disappeared.
 
I won’t link it but some Chinese Government Minister has just posted a map of NATO countries in 1991 and one next to it as of now.

These cunts will back Russia and we’re in a new Cold War of free society vs authoritarian dictatorships.

Anyone defending the latter should fuck off and live there.

Seems to me now that without nukes or chemical weapons Russia has zero chance of taking Ukraine.

Losing more jets and helicopters, soldiers running out of food and fuel. Tanks and artillery being deserted, it is a disaster.

One of the worst military fails in the past 100 years.

I’ve heard for years that the Russians would walk over the Baltic state and Eastern European countries and I’ve never really believed it. They aren’t a wealthy nation and they have military firepower dating back to the 80’s. Like you said, without their nukes and other missiles, they’d be fuck all.

A lot of people whinge about how the British armed forces not being as strong as it was, but we’ve got more than enough to defend this island and that’s all that matters. We’re not going to go toe to toe with the two superpowers US and China. We’ve got more than enough to put up with Russia or any other country.
