Russia invading Ukraine (NEWS/UPDATES)

Not open for further replies.

Why did Boris say we are banning dual purpose items to Russia? Surely we should just ban everything heading that direction.

Surely we should be banning them from the Swift system all together!!!!

We cannot ban them from the Swift banking system - that's a global decision and the word is it's Germany and Italy resisting

Banning Iraq from Swift sent the country into a fiscal tailspin and would do the same to Russia - I hope it happens soon
 
I genuinely believe that if Trump was still in power Putin wouldn’t be invading Ukraine now.

Biden is so non compos mentis, weak and corrupt that this has emboldened Putin hugely.

Either way, Biden is finished.
I'm no fan of Trump at all but I can imagine Putin would have thought, 'I thought I was a nutter but this Trump fella is more of a nutter than me, I best not dee owt or he'll gan full on radgy' ;)

Germany won’t touch Russia. They will be hoping Russia takes Ukraine quickly and it can all settle down so they can get their pipes back up and running.
 
This country is f***ing ridiculous at times. Putin (not Russia as I believe a lot of the Russian people don’t secretly don’t agree with it) has invaded a peaceful country and you’ve got people in this county using it to have a dig at our own and the USA’s governments. Fuck all that we are all British and it’s times like this we need to stick together and you’ve got proper melts using it to put their political points forward…
