Sanctions is the way out atm. Have them at a point where eating their own shit is preferable to what’s on offer at the dinner table and surely some one will off him?

He’d have to be arrested, trialed and executed within a day or two. No way they’d hand him over to The Hague so it has to be internally dealt with, as you said.

As I've been pointing out for a while on here Russia is a commodity super state. Its frightening just how much of the world's commodities Russia has under its control. Hydrocarbons, grains and metals. China will take all he has to sell if he decides to throttle supply to the West.

The recent footage of putin shows his face quite ‘puffy’ not too unlike someone having a course of steroids or even Botox . Granted he is almost 70 so might be abit of ageing.

I wonder if the US intelligence services have better insight into this

I don't agree with that analysis tbh. Keith Richards looked as if he had weeks to live 20 years ago. Old people look old, that's the way it is unfortunately.

Looks like you couldn't even leave the thread properly!

All you have done on this thread is post daft stuff that you have found on line that is being circulated by the Russians

Either you are pro-Putin, in which case fuck off

Or you are too dim to realise that you are been fed pro-Putin lines and you are just regurgitating them. In which case fuck off

Pro-Putin? One can be anti-Putin/Russian whilst acknowledging the hypocrisy and contributing factors the west have brought to enable this debacle.

Or are we that blinded by western morally superiority and imperialism?

No. But despite whatever theories and political angles exist there is simply no justification for invading another country and killing people.

Anyone with an ounce of argument defending putin/russia in this situation is a clown. Politics exist all the time. War is decided by morons and never benefits anyone. Its barbaric.

There plenty of ways putin could diplomatically make his country and the world stonger/safer, this is not it. He's a maniac and needs wiping out. The end

Just an opinion but I wonder how much of the thinking in not sanctioning Abramovich is down to his potential usefulness as a trusted go-between with Zelensky and Putin.

Fair point.

Those closest to putin (the rich fuckers) are best placed to try and change this.

Several ways they can do it tbh....

Just watching the BBC documentary about him from pre Ukrainian invasion. Eerily similar scenario in Georgia in 2008.

Did I say there was? I quite clearly didn't. All I've done is acknowledge a set of circumstance that have at least played a part in this unfolding tragedy. The invasion of Ukraine is no different to many of the American conflicts over the years, does it make it right? No, but it's arguably in their best interests, hence why they're doing it.

In terms of a maniac, if you're going to go down that path he's no different to Clinton, Cheney, Bush et al in that sense. But they're team West I suppose.

I'm quite clearly not pro war and quite clear not in support of Ukraine being pushed over or annexed.

Distinguishable difference between being pro-Russia and acknowledging global geopolitical forces at work.

Most people can see theres context to the situation but theres literally nothing anyone can say that gives any remote reason for war and anyone waffling on about reasons why he's done it as if to suggest they can understand it and repeating said angle is an idiot.. Anyways thought you were f***ing off

A little sensationalism from Beth there saying it was shelling of the nuclear power station as have a few other places. There were rumours that they had chased the Ukraine soldiers (or possibly people protecting it as there's a security entrance just ahead of where the Russians were parked) into the training building that isn't really close to the reactors themselves. I posted a few bits of info last night and thankfully very few people have been suckered in by it on here, unlike people on Tw@tter.

Is that emergency services or a massive gun battle? Looks like they turned up but turned around and left

Irrespective of the damage to the plant, the fact that they’ve been so reckless surely has to prompt NATO and/or Putin’s generals to seriously consider their next steps here. I suspect the fire will be contained to a training centre / outer building and there won’t be a risk of meltdown but it...

Tbf he does. None of what he says excuses what he’s done mind but you can see where his paranoia comes from. Nothing is ever black and white. Imagine Bojo being that eloquent!

Still hope someone from inside his circle topples him.

The IAEA Director General has just been on BBC News from 9:34am for 10 mins or so explaining what went on and what they're doing and he just mentioned no plant staff were hurt but 2 security personel were injured.

Of course it is different.

All the recent ‘American conflicts’ have occurred when there is already a regional threat or fighting or civil war going on.

Saddam was gassing Kurds. Serbs were ethnically cleansing Bosnians. Gadaffi was killing opponents.

They were not unprovoked invasions of a sovereign nation.
