My bad. didnt know she posted it an hour ago
NATO will be preparing for the worst at the moment, following protocols.
I know how fecking ridiculous this sounds, but seeing Klitschko ready for war makes this somewhat more real for me. It's just terrible all around
Yup, I think if there is a counter offensive if it's true then they should look at destroying the runways
Putin won't touch NATO. He'll work with the Chinese to grow a stronger counter balance against NATO.
Just had 5 huge military helicopters over my house.
Jesus. I think this must be linked to the false flag incident they were talking about earlier?
But these are just poor boys that don't know what they are doing in Ukraine
What have you done?
You just know they are laughing.
It's going to get worse once the Chechen thugs turn up.
Exactly. China is already helping out and will continue to do so. They will also help Russia technologically that much I am sure of. Rough times ahead for humanity. Our only hope is that leaders of the world's leading states are good humans. If not, we are fecked.
NATO is sadly the dweeb at the moment
I get for obvious reasons Military options are available
but don’t ration the sanctions, I don’t get what they are waiting for???
A European Country has been invaded by Russia, war is now raging…..what else are we waiting for on the sanctions front?
If Russia step onto NATO soil (obviously won’t happen) then they can’t be holding sanction back for that action because the only action in that case would be all out war……so stop hold back and flipping get all the possible ruthless sanctions out
They targeted civilian flats during the night, they have bomber an orphanage.
of course, that's the whole point
Most aren't very welcoming to be pushed as canon fodder against the Chinese, to which we traded alot.
We normally gave them a token gesture and send them home without saying anything firm. Normally the SOD would ask us to be "hostile" towards China and supports the US, but alas they left their purse back home.
He survived!
That is impossible. They are sending large amount of their soldiers, planes and tanks here even without imminent danger of invasion. You reckon they'd all just leave if the war started, and are here just for fun?
There is always rapid reaction forces available in the UK that are on permanent stand by
We are barely 300 km from Lviv and directly on the way from the border. Most of their refugees will come to Krakow first.
While the rest of us watch it on the news.
I struggle to believe the foremost world leaders can view these scenes on not feel utterly compelled to intervene. It's basic instincts.
yes my boss is based in Warsaw she said already yesterday they were arriving. My friend has taken some in that he knows
I think it’s more likely that we would see our air support moving in first as a warning.
Imagine even half what was spent as financing Afghanistan military was spent to help Ukraine.
If anything the normal bloke on the street like myself and you will want to help more or ex soldiers from around the world. These politicians are only interested in money.
Do you know what gets to me @Random Task all these world leaders have no balls. Sanctions, sanctions thats all you hear. Putin doesnt give a crap about sanctions. He is a power hungry maniac and wont stop here. Did you see Lazarov this morning. Jesus christ the whole world is in danger if we dont stand together
Not much they can do sadly, they're not mean to hold a full fledge invasion, sabotage and recon perhaps.
And if they're captured it's going to be a shitstorm politically for everyone involved. The Russians would have to acknowledge that they indeed captured an SAS team, the British would have to acknowledge they sent in one, and lord knows what comes after. If that's Navy, I would think hard on what happens in the US congress with the situation as it is. Perhaps Biden would be crucified for sending one in the first place.
Christ, didn't cross my mind. What a waste. So much money also went to local corrupt warlords and such.
Gunships?
Amazing journalism on CNN just now
I might have some over the weekend at my current or other place, though my Ukrainian friends I contacted said their families cannot leave Ukraine anymore as they are between 18-60 and wives do not want to leave their husbands alone. This is fecked up. Will be doing some shopping to provide basic stuff to the shelters later today.
Thankfully the guy in the car is said to be alive. Local civilians pulled him from the wreckage.
It is basic instinct of course
but there are times where restraint is needed for the bigger good, and that can hurt (obviously nothing on the scale of the Ukrainians current hurt)
No sane person, unless your chopper, likes a bully, no sane person likes seeing death and destruction.
Hungary and Romania have the best military positions in Europe for a country like Russia that would be looking to expand its influence. Also the US does a lot of dubious shit around here. They will surely step in if situation escalates towards these two.
Ukraine is Ukraine, but if Russia somehow steps on Hungary and Romania, they have fecking access to the whole of Europe.
At the moment, the situation is viewed mostly from a political standpoint, but from a military one, the countries around Ukraine are the most important for Putin and the Russians kinda want them back for like what, 30/40 years?
However you look at the situation, it's bad, very very bad. If the whole western world bows to Putin, what next? In 2-3 years he'll invade another country?
In regards to India and China, they'll jump ship to NATO the second Russia goes over a NATO territory.
