This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

Hasn't the UN Representative from Russia been removed from the Council? I don't think the UN will do much.
I think the keyboard warriors on this Board that believe there should be american boots on the ground in Ukraine should put their cowardly feet in those boots and get over there.
The biggest mistake we have repeatedly made since ww2 is sending our troops to fight wars that the locals should be fighting themselves.
This is Ukrainians war to fight. We should provide support.
Does he understand the definition of world war?
Now he could fall back on the we'll shoot our nuclear weapons threat, but having Syria, Iran, and Belarus as your big supporters does not a world war make. And IF a world war is coming, it wouldn't be allies defending Ukraine who started it. That blame lies squarely in Moscow.
"Satellite Internet plays a key role in Ukraine's defensive struggle. Europe has not yet had its own offer. That should change – also with the help of German start-ups. Tomorrow the decision is to be made in Brussels, the paper is available to

"France has decided to transport to Ukraine VAB-type "commercial quantities" the French can transport up to 1600 vehicles at present. This is an ADF that entered service in 1976."
With that many, I hope France sends at least 100.

I don't want any US ground troops involved directly in Ukraine.
However, I think we should mark up some US aircraft to appear to be Ukranian and start bombing the crap out of Russian positions. Russia denies everything. Can't the US do that too?
I'm not saying it's a good idea to risk US pilots and it's probably not a practical idea but I can still wish for it.
I know. I know... but I hate Russia.
Absolutely not but thats what a democracy could look like. That is how NATO CAN function. It just never will.
Me too...throw in China as well. Security council is basically worthless with veto power. Russians learned their lesson on the Korean "police action" vote 70 years ago....
The Security Council needs to be modified so that the permanent members don't have single vote veto power. I think a modification to require two permanent members would be good. Wouldn't necessarily help in this case since China would likely be on Russia's side. But it would be a step in the right direction. The single vote veto rule gives way too much power and prevents the UN from actually doing their job.
At that time the Soviets were boycotting the Security Council because the US insisted the nationalists retain the seat, although the commies controlled China at that point.
You may find this article in the Atlantic interesting:
Having largely gotten away with the takeover of the breakaway Georgian regions of South Ossetia and Abkhazia in 2008, Putin saw the Libya intervention as the result of a chain of revolutions followed by Western military interventions that could eventually reach him. And he saw in Gaddafi someone who had accepted the West’s terms and yet nevertheless paid the price, a fate that could ultimately await him. The lesson is a dire one for Ukraine: In Putin’s current worldview, backing down or making any concessions is a death sentence.
Wheels got greased. Turkey has agreed to admit Finland and Sweden.
Gee I wonder why they would ever want to enter a military alliance to deter Russian aggression? Hmmmm
Now for the idiotstick Russian Disinfo spreading apologists framing this as a gross violation against Russia necessitating the expansion of their war on Europe. These people suck.
Whenever “Russian civilization” contributed to humanity that time is long since over. F them.

Using inaccurate weapons in a highly dense residential/shopping area -- regardless of proximity to a legitimate target -- is by definition "indiscriminate."

Not a single person has said they want American troops in Ukraine.
Take your dumb and deranged posts elsewhere.

Kursk is also home to a large Russian nuclear power plant.
Hopefully Russia takes the hint and thinks twice before escalating any further.
He is concerned about Putin’s well being.

Thousands already have died, millions already displaced you dim bulb.
Putin’s fault. No one else.
