Well, come on, let's do Ukraine

[STEMO]

A quick rummage suggests that Ukraine produces a significantly large amount of grain.

I wonder if, in spite of the bluster and bravado, this simply boils down to food?

Russia is the largest wheat exporter in the world or, at least, one of the largest.

Russia is #2, Ukraine #5...

Which means that Vlad has invaded Ukraine simply because he could. And that can never be good.

Like I said, to stop it joining NATO. Would you like Russian missiles in Wales?

Then why not Finland or Moldova?

Yeltsin did that ,but no one seemed bothered at the time. He was just an old pisshead. Not worth worrying about apparently.
Seems a bit short sighted now. 

I seem to recall it was a good day when he could walk at all.

When he was able to walk he would usually pinch a female arse or two on his way to the vodka bottle.

Dear me 
Russia already has troops stationed in Moldova. And Finland? Jeez

We really have no need to worry.

Diversity and inclusion along with pronoun use will save the world.

There have been moves in both Finland and Sweden to join NATO, and I suspect todays actions by Russia make this much more likely.

Both used to be staunchly neutral, with Finland operating MiG aircraft until the mid 1990s. However, in recent years both have participated in bilateral exercises with NATO member countries, including allowing overflights of US reconnaissance and bomber aircraft. Neither country now operate any Russian/Soviet hardware AFAIK, and are participating with western/NATO countries more and more.

But even if you are a member of NATO, you are going to have to fend off the opening attacks on your own, using your own armed forces under your own sovereign control. Invoking Article 5 is going to take days to have any real effect regardless of who you are. Sad as it is, Ukraine aren't in NATO, and can't depend on the external assistance NATO cover would provide.

However, any incursions into Poland, the Baltics, Romania or Bulgaria which are NATO countries will provoke direct military action. We've just got to hope Putin understands that.

Not sure if this invasion could have been avoided but I think it became more likely when the doddery senile kiddie sniffer replaced the fat orange pussy grabber.

Putin and his mate Winnie the Pooh  view the west as effeminate and soft. They don't stand around wringing their hands over diversity and inclusion, BLM, and gender identity in Moscow.

The other thing is that there have been suggestions that he is not well and has Parkinson's disease.  I noticed last night on the news, that as he walked across a room to a podium his right arm was completely still, as if he has had a stroke or something. 

Maybe he thinks time is not on his side....

An old uncle of mine suffered with Parkinson's. He was never still and shook like a shitting dog most of the time.

Yes, the RE teacher at school had Parkinsons.  We called him The Shaking Budda!  

It comes in many different forms, my sister has it but no shakes just everything slowed down

This is what happened to my uncle later on when they increased his medication. It cut down on the tremors but at the expense of being able to move any part of his body very much.

He just sat in his chair after that until the grim reaper came for him.

My aunt, who has sadly just died, had that variation too. No shaking at all, just had great difficulty in stringing words together and concentrating. As for my neighbour, the poor sod just can't keep still.
