  1. On 1st February 2022, UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss flew to Kiev and proudly announced the transfer of UK weapons, that the UK had trained 22,000 Ukrainian troops and given £88m to Kiev - 3 weeks BEFORE Russia's 'unprovoked' invasion of Ukraine!

  2. When Putin tried to negotiate in 2021, it was the Americans who lacked enthusiasm!

  3. You are ignoring the 40,000 strong task force that Zelensky sent to 'take back Donbas' in early Feb '22. On 16th Feb, the OSCE recorded more than 40 ceasefire breaches, as the UA began shelling the people of Donbas, rising to more than 2,000 a day on 20th, 21st and 22nd. On 24th Feb, as requested under Article 51 of the UN Charter, Russia stepped in to stop it. Yet you call that an 'invasion'!

  4. A refreshingly objective summary, from someone who is not a Putin fan!

  5. Oh dear, Bumble! So, when your elected Government is overthrown and replaced by a rabid, nationalist one, with views opposite to those you voted for. When that 'government' was installed by an external power, for the purpose of implementing their own agenda, for their own interests, not yours. When you resist and disown this proxy Govt stating you want no part of it and refuse their rule. This Government has the right to kill you and 'consolidate their borders'?  @bumble-g2j

  6. I bet you diddn't live in Lvov!Who are Azov, Aidar, Kraken, Right Sektor? Why do they fly Nazi flags on their tanks? Who attends the torch-lit parades through Kiev on 1st January each year? Why are there red and black flags in the cemeteries? 'Blut und Ehre' was the inscription on the knives of the Hitler Youth! @healyourgutguy

  7. Well said, Nick! One of the reasons Putin declined the LPR & DPR applications is he knew that because Donbas creates 40% of Ukraine's GDP, the country could not survive without it and he believed the Minsk Agreements gave the ethnic-Russians living there sufficient protection. Russia would never want western Ukraine - it's filled with nationalists!

  8. It would appear that your comment earned you that response. Had your eyes and ears been open, you would not be "extremely sceptical about what Russia says". You would also perceive the maturity shown by officials such as Lavrov, Zakharova, Nebenzya, Putin - though possibly not Medvedev. @GloriaHoulihan

  9. It amazes me how many people just don't listen! Putin didn't say he supports Biden or likes Biden or even prefers Biden. He was asked which one is better for Russia. Obviously an aging, incompetent fool, with minimal public support, a disastrous track record and a closet full of skeletons - is best for Russia!

  10. Then why the torch-lit processions through Kiev every 1st of January (Bandera's birthday)? Why change the name of a street in Kiev from that the Russian General who liberated Odessa from the Nazis, to the 1st commander of the Azov Battalion? @garyddlewis3067
