nowt like a bit of sabre rattling to paper over the cracks back in Moscow, Putin is creating a crisis to parade his leadership skills, but the Russian people have no appetite for war, they'd much prefer food and heating.
Disagree. I blame the Yanks.nowt like a bit of sabre rattling to paper over the cracks back in Moscow, Putin is creating a crisis to parade his leadership skills, but the Russian people have no appetite for war, they'd much prefer food and heating.

They've been pushing for decades to destabilise and bring down Russia. Now they've got NATO camped outside on their doorstep.Why do you blame USA tho?
Time to dig out the Betamax version of ThreadsI think we're no further forward, after this alleged phone call between Putin & Biden.
Just more posturing with remarks of "Swift Action" if Russia invade Ukraine.
Even if Russia invaded Ukraine, that’s America’s fault?They've been pushing for decades to destabilise and bring down Russia. Now they've got NATO camped outside on their doorstep.
Anybody who thinks Russia are the bad guys and the West are being the good guys, has learned nothing from Iraq and Afghanistan.
How do you think America would feel if Canada signed a military pact with Russia and China?Even if Russia invaded Ukraine, that’s America’s fault?
Ukraine haven’t yet joined NATO but even if someone on a boarder did sign a military pact, I’m not sure that is a warrant to invade and inflict loss of life. As always it won’t be any of the politicians or their children that die.How do you think America would feel if Canada signed a military pact with Russia and China?
I agree with the last bit. The world doesn't need any more wars.Ukraine haven’t yet joined NATO but even if someone on a boarder did sign a military pact, I’m not sure that is a warrant to invade and inflict loss of life. As always it won’t be any of the politicians or their children that die.
The sooner we have world harmony the better. Can’t see it any time soon.
Russia are constantly flirting with our airspace and seas.I agree with the last bit. The world doesn't need any more wars.
It's the Americans that are ramping up all this hysteria. Russia are continually denying that they're going to invade Ukraine and now even the Ukrainian president/prime minister is asking the Americans to share this intelligence with them because they don't believe Russia will invade.
An American submarine has been spotted by the Russians in their waters, now. I believe the Americans are the biggest aggressors in all of this.
I know. That's been happening for decades. The UK has just been caught out spying on the Kremlin.Russia are constantly flirting with our airspace and seas.
How does that compare to Russia and the Ukraine?Most people don't want Scotland to leave the UK but we haven't put one hundred thousand troops on our border with them.

In my opinion it's quite a similar scenario.
