Hmm it feels crass to make a joke but shit is escalating.

Even Lviv (which is on the far west side) seems to be under attack? :o
 
And now it’s reported that Russian troops from Belarus have crossed the border.
 
I really need to go offline but I can’t help looking at updates, hoping for some good news somewhere.
 
I saw it coming but still hard to believe this is happening in 2022. :(

I texted my mother the war just started and she replied "Oh no, Ukraine is the largest flour manufacturer in Europe". :square:

”The goal is not to invade Ukraine but to protect Russia”

Just translating from Swedish, I don’t know if it’s exactly what he said, but this is the narrative I refered to earlier in this thread, a classic move used so many times in the past it almost sounds like a joke and yet it’s really happening again. It feels surreal.
 
Minewhile everyone talking about getting their sanctions out again. Whoopdiewoo.

The only way I'll be even slightly impressed is if they get as far as seizing Chelsea football club.

I think that is exactly it - he has been speaking about ‘genocide’ for days now. Utterly insane

Yes the only option to take action now is surely to try to stop it with military force, but WHO wants that (and its ramifications) other than Putin
 
Jesus, this is so much worse than I anticipated - he's going for the whole country. This is dreadful. :(
 
Feels horrible to say this, but I predict Ukraine's government will throw in the towel in 48 hours. I hope I'm wrong.
 
Any intervention by outside powers against Russia would get an "instant" response, he said

:square:
 
Any word on increased sanctions for Belarus? They are complicit.
 
I wonder if anything is happening or will happen soon in Moldova - it would seem a good/bad time for Russia to ramp up its presence.

I’m surprised Belarus hasn‘t had a “referendum” to join Russia yet..

He’s probably not going to get it in Ukraine (never say never) but the Baltics will be a different matter. There’s NATO troops there, including British, for a start.

I feel this might happen too, if only to save on so much potential death and destruction. What a fucking horrible mess with two choices, both utterly awful.

Maybe there will finally be an end to that awful Transnistria. :D:(
