Russian invasion of Ukraine

If only Simo Häyhä was still alive today.

He'd take him out from a mile.

I know bricks and mortar are far less important than people, but there are some lovely buildings being smashed to pieces.

As Zelensky said, Putin is trying to destroy Ukrainian identity, and destroying the historic buildings is part of that.

I think you’re reading a bit too much into the motivation on delay’s. Example; VTB had their assets frozen, the next day the treasury told them they had 30 days to unwind “settlements” (not sure what settlements mean in this context) - so long as such settlement didn’t break other sanctions.

The UK wants to keep playing by the rules, no wonder Putin and his ilk laughs at the west.

Don't think he/they are laughing now

Just about every child leaving Ukraine is leaving their dad behind, as well as their homes and belongings. Fucking disgusting, we need a stronger swear word than **** for Putin. These sanctions need to be stronger and need to last for decades. Stop buying their gas and oil, fuck them fully out of SWIFT, seize all the western assets of russian oligarchs INCLUDING THOSE IN THE UK JOHNSON. Russia needs to pay for this for decades to ensure putin or a successor doesn’t do it again; bankrupt and humiliate the cunts

Putin has been clever here. Building up nuclear energy and plotting while the West grovels to a tantrum throwing Swedish teenager and plant eating hipsters.
Luckily for us, his army is useless other than bombing civilians from a distance.

At the moment we seem to be in a race between Ukrainian Cities being levelled and Russian financial apocalypse. Can Ukraine slow the bombardment, evacuate civilians and speed up the sanctions to the point where Russia's economy is sent back to the 80's?

As civilian casualties go higher and humanitarian situation worsens surely we will cut off the rest of the Russian banks from SWIFT and stop buying Billions of $$$ of oil and gas off them per day.

To speed it up Germany would have to shut down half its economy so they can stop importing Russian gas. I know I'm sat in the UK saying this but I think it's a price worth paying. They will be better off in the long run as will everyone else.

There really is no shortage of idiotic posts today. We don't need another one.

I made the mistake of clicking on the link to that steaming pile of horseshit.

The Times seems to take issue with our ‘world leading efforts’.

‘Britain will not be able to sanction Roman Abramovich and other oligarchs for weeks of months - if at all. Foreign Office and National Crime Agency have been unable to prove 'reasonable grounds' for designating oligarchs’ @TheTimes
