To add to what I have said above, and reading and listening to Putin's speech today, one can only worry.
The very real chance of escalation, is real, with also the possibly of China supplying Russia with military hardware. One thing is clear , one can never bow to a bully or megalomaniac. Putin has already had the confidence to send agents to the UK to assassinate disitant Russian nationals. His ego means that he is now in a tunnel of no return, so there us no real end to this conflict sadly. Putin clearly views the fact that resolve in the West will weaken, which of course ,is a real possibility . Public opinion, with unfavourable economic conditions in most countries, creates a climate, where people focus more on their own situations, naturally, and understandably. People need continual reminders that Putin continues to create misery for many, piling further havoc on top of the havoc already evident. It's not just about Ukraine, but if Putin can get away with the subjecation of a peaceful country, it gives him the green light to be bolder in other strategic plans he may have up his sleeve.

Would like to quote what my wife said. She has a form of dementia, which causes short term memory loss, however, she is STILL very perceptive. She said, "He's a man of real dignity," I didn't instigate that, and thought yes, spot on ! What a contrast to utter cretin who preceded him!

He is 80 year old...no American hardware and soldiers to protect him...I know they informed the Russians to behave...but still a good thing to do.....well done Joe.

In 1972, Roy Bergiers scored that try and said "that was for you lofty"
"All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us" |
