Got to give it to the Ukrainians they know they are up against it here but they will try everything.

Civilians with assault rifles. Molotovs. Imagine the psycops for the Russians knowing every time they get out their APC or round a corner they could meet a pissed off Ukrainian with an AK47

It's scary stuff, Poland may have to consider they could be a target in the future. If Putin wants to turn the clock back where does the West draw the line? It wasn't Crimea, it isn't Ukraine- what about Moldova? I doubt it. What about Latvia? possibly not. What about little 'Russian" slices of Poland like the area around Bialystock, or the former Russian Finland, the rest of Poland was occupied by USSR. I presume taking back the bits of Germany that it used to own would be too far??

Not to mention Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Bratislava, Hungary and former Yugoslavia. Some shopping list there.

Those are Chechens apparently. Although I'm hesitant to believe everything i'm seeing atm.

Currently moving towards Kyiv and mayor of Kyiv is saying the city has entered a defensive phase. But there also seems to be a lot of fighting going on around the country also, Sky news showing clips of gunfire in Mariupol. They're not giving up.

Be careful what you wish for, as some have pointed out SAFC has arguably links to Russian money

We don't arguably have links we have direct links

Kyril's mum being a Russian billionaire who controls his trust fund

Sartori's father in law is an Oligarch

That's 61% of the clubs ownership

There is no “peace keeping arrangement” as without Russian invasion there is no threat to peace.

The quickest way to peace now is for all Russian forces to leave all of Ukraine and let the country make its own independent decisions.

Your post is illogical.

We were discussing the build up to the current invasion. There was an active arrangement in place and it was being monitored by the OSCE, I provided a link to one of their reports upthread.

Some weapons grade cognitive dissonance here.

In Ukraine, Svoboda have one seat in parliament. One f***ing seat.

Meanwhile, Russia is run by a nationalist dictatorship.

Which one has the problem with nationalism?

I think Russian nationalism is plain to see and not really a debating point. It's the antithesis of our values.

I think when it comes to weapons grade cognitive dissonance, you should try reading the posts and responding to what they say because you're another who when applying imagination manages to fly miles from the point.

The fact that the Ukraine parliament is not populated by far right groups does not mean they don't exist and it doesn't have influence.

I don't know if you're simply unaware but if you are, don't you ask yourself where the far right militias get their weapons, why are they allowed to operate and why no-one has brought them to account for the allegations of human rights abuses and war crimes?

As I said in another post, we need to consider the ramifications of getting into bed with some of these people.
