Obviously not condoning Russia's invasion and this horrible war, but I am confused why after the break up of the Soviet Union and the victory of the Cold War NATO still decided to expand towards Russia when the reason it was formed was no longer there or a threat. Putin who was at an earlier...

Russia seems to be grounding this out until Ukraine runs out of men and the Western allies, USA mainly decide that they won't supply more arms. Worryingly, I saw a program that the Russian economy has bot been decimated by western sanctions as expected and has been revived in a war economy.

It has nothing to do with who's in charge of a certain country. The NATO agrrement says if one member country is attacked then that is an attack on all the countries of the NATO alliance.

He also repeatedly said he had no plans to invade Ukraine weeks before he did. But I take your point about a number of people have to agree to press the red button. I have no idea who these people are though.

A Russian invasion of the UK will not happen. Being a NATO country, the other members including the USA are bound by agreement to come to our aid by military means. We have all seen that Russia has it's hands full in the stalemate in Ukraine at the moment. In such a scenario, there would be more...

I will let heroes like you to deal with it 🙂

Exactly. That's why a complete and humiliating defeat of Russia in this war is dangerous in that they have the nuclear option. Nobody seems to be talking about that unlike the start of the military operation. Not sure how it's going to end to be honest.

I don't think even Putin has any plans to invade the UK anytime soon. As far as been conscipted to fight in eastern Europe against Russia, I will use the religious grounds of refusal like Muhammed Ali and the Vietnam war.

For such a large country it's pretty lowly populated. I read somwhere that the population of Germany and the UK combined is about the same.

Reports that Avdiivka maybe soon about to fall to the Russians. An important rail link that may affect Ukrainian supply links. I thought the Russians were mainly just defending the Ukraine offensive in recent months, which hasn't gained much ground. Sadly, this war doesn't seem to have an end in...

I just cant believe that you can find a body double 100% like the original Putin. If you study him for any length of time, you would surely see some differences. Presumably he doesn't have a twin.

Russia is also the largest country on earth, which has been buit over time (wars)

German troops were not congressing on the French cost at that time due to fear of the British navy, which was still at that time Britania rules the waves

In what way is it offensive. It's just what I have studied from independent sources. Maybe how the British conqered India and other parts of the world is someting to look at, as we are usually the good guys?

T34 tanks were not made in the West. I'm not belittiling brave sailors who died in a wider conflict.

Cant think of anything to prove my argument wrong, so throw some insults. Fair enogh and some thumbs up for you

The 2nd world war was basically won on the eastern front. Yes, after France fell Britain survided the Blitz which was intended to to bring it to the peace table. Hitler didn't want a war on 2 fronts, and that's effectively what happened when the USA joined in. Yes, the USA, GB gave limited aid...

Yes. But so was the USA alliance in trying to install a pro western government. I was just making the point that the USSR were able to control the country longer. As it turned out, it probably helped to break up the Soviet Union sooner. Afghanistan has been a grave stone for Empires, including...

Well, they seem more accurate with shooting down aircrafts than Moon landings.

I'm surprised he didn't move somewhere a long way from Russia. I thought the same with Saddam and Gadaffi when it was obvious what the ending would be. The other 9 people onboard, I would have decided not to take that flight.
