Russia invading Ukraine (NEWS/UPDATES)

Not open for further replies.

Be alright as long as Russia don't invade French Guiana then.
Interesting and I can only guess it would apply, as it would with the Falklands - but I'm honestly not sure, good point.

Edit: It seems I was incorrect in my assumption, thanks for bringing it up.

Planning the next launch of his knob-rocket no doubt.

I expected it would exclude any external territory below the tropic of cancer which belonged to a NATO nation but wasn't 100% sure.

Was thinking earlier that this entire charade could lead to a rapid acceptance of Ukraine into NATO.

We are to believe that one of the reasons for Putin’s aggression was that he didn’t want Ukraine to join. Suddenly I think it’s absolutely inevitable they will.
Any nations with a major ongoing border dispute are necessarily precluded from joining, and do you think Russia are ever going to just let this lie?

It's a very lang read but that's the crux of it - i.e. no chance whatsoever..

Talking of the Falklands I wonder if this invasion is giving the Argies some ideas
It'll be giving China ideas, you can bet on that.

Good news if true -

The feared leader of the Chechen Republic, a constituent of the Russian Federation, say “he does not want to fight against Ukraine.” His forces were considered shock troops and meant to bread terror in Ukraine. He and his forces are out of Russia’s Ukraine war!
