Russian invasion of Ukraine

We still have posters talking about blowing up the bridge and taking Crimea.

A few have advocated the former (myself included) but has anyone actually suggested the latter as a viable possibility for the foreseeable?

I may be being a bit cynical but you can't tell me that this has not been ongoing for quite some time. I mean there has been a lot of support provided to Ukraine and they decided a couple of days ago (due to a timely synchroniseed go ahead) that they can start using supplied weaponry in Russian territory whether it be claimed/owned?

Not formally but It's almost over. They are on course for defeat.

wasn't trump on course for defeat in the US election? "on course for defeat" can have a strange way of being turned on its head.

I didn't believe that hype btw. Was just people getting carried away.

War is different than opinion polls. The harsh reality is that Ukraine hasn't achieved the territorial gains they needed.

If Trump pulls out but Europe step up, would we still need to get their permission to use certain weapons? Is there a non American version of storm shadow etc that can be bought.

Pretty sure you're wumming at this point. Rational people don't talk like this. It's like you're trying to get a reaction.

Well you won't be getting any interaction from me from now on.

Crack on though, I'm sure others will see through you in time.

Surprise surprise. Don’t let him get to you.
Please see my post regarding this guy in the BBC thread page 9. He does nothing but argue with people. 100% wum

But Europe step up? Trump is both correct and very naive. The whole of Europe has become very complacent with military strength and unity but collectively hold the most strategic trade routes/air routes on the planet. Vice versa, US is an enormous super power when it comes to military strength and the amount of strategic bases they have very much depends on alliances.

Some people just crave attention. Best ignored.

Well they need to step up to the time of around £100 billion if Trump pulls out, do you think there is a will to do that?

Storm Shadow is British/French mate.

Slava Ukraini.
