Russia invading Ukraine (NEWS/UPDATES)

[Billy Fish]

I’m going to take it as it’s still a bit of a stand off given there hasn’t been a lot of updates on this thread for a while?

Update; it's not a stand off anymore

As you can imagine, zero air activity over Ukraine right now, even the US drone appears to be sticking to the Black Sea. Or zero aircraft showing up on Flight Radar, not necessarily the same as nothing there.

yeah certain military flights that go over our house dont show up on FR, for obvious reasons i expect

Putin - 'To anyone who would consider interfering from the outside - if you do, you will face consequences greater than any you have faced in history.'

Lord help us going into this with Boris and his party clique. He should have been ousted weeks ago.
Hopefully he can at least manage to keep that inane smirk off his face when he has anything important to say.
Scary times.

Sounds like a job for Japan "oh really you going to launch 3 nukes at us"

It's a tad important to be left on the depths of the Politics board

Kinda glad Ukraine aren't part of NATO purely for this.

Imagine Boris Johnson leading a war, the man took 6 months to decide if you needed to wear a mask or not.

 

[Wild Card]

It's a sobering thought when you consider that sanctions do fuck all to resolve this.

Russia have spend the last several years trying to sanction proof their economy and have done a decent job of it.

I believe we need to heavily sanction powerful individuals.

They won't get involved. That's my take on the situation. They will watch and wait then deal with the "winners"

But it keeps the Politics posters off this board.

Russia wouldn’t have attacked if Ukraine were part of NATO

Luckily Boris would not be the one making any decisions on how we lead a war on Russia.

I know! It was just a joke at Boris' expense at the thought of him leading a war.

Would this have happened under trump? Not a fan of his but serious question

Market wise you'd think the West, but given some of the slightly dodgy stuff China are upto you'd expect Russia or just stay neutral.

Would this have happened under trump? Not a fan of his but serious question

From what I've seen of trump these last few days he's probably under the desk at the kremlin sucking putin off.
