Given the popular attitude in Belarus towards Lukashenko and Putin, are they absolutely sure which side the Belarussian army will fight for once it's sent in?
It’s a massive gamble on his part if he sends his army into Ukraine. Given a huge number of his population hate his guts. Just comes down to who he’s most scared of. Putin or his own people. Maybe mad Vlad has promised him untold riches and a place of safety when it all goes tits up for him.
 
What's the odds on Putin been took out by one of these Oligarchs end of day his actions have put the spotlight right on them all funny how the threat of losing your money affects some people
 
I'm not saying they did single out Ukraine for this reason. But didn't 'Ivan the Terrible' from whatever death camp belong Ukraine way? Maybe there is an anti-Russian ex Nazi brigade element in Ukraine. But maybe it's exaggerated.

That is true. But who equipped the big stick, from when, and why?
who are 'they'? it was you who intimated the nazi connection.
as for the ivan the terrible connection it appears as though you are quite happy to spread disinformation. same goes for your other claim. do you work for the kremlin?
a prime example of gaslighting.
 
The general opinion amongst experts is it will be a bloodbath for the Russians. Conventional wisdom is 5/1 upper hand for defenders in Urban warfare.

And there is a hell of a lot of Ukrainian forces, equipment and advanced Western weapons in Kiyv.

Add in the terrain; 100 meter wide boulevards surrounded by high rise buildings and it’s likely to be a bloodbath. They are highly likely to shell it heavily first Is imagine
They can shell it. History suggests it will make it harder to advance into and easier to defend. I’ve a feeling that should Russian soldiers enter the city they will suffer huge unsustainable numbers of casualties.
 
It's about time we stopped sending aid to India if they can afford things like that. Whether aid is a sweetener for trade or not, it is our money.
As you can see from my posting history I'm a bit of a lefty, but I 100% agree
I wouldn't send another penny in aid to India, Pakistan, South Africa or anywhere else who show any support for Putin, that includes trying to play both sides like Modi & Khan. See how much foreign aid that evil bastard provides them
