Thank you for the kind words. I was expecting a beasting for posting something sensible on the hilarious but crazy Oatcake! Of course, not the best first post ever - I forgot the initiation statement of "long time reader, first time poster"... dammit. Billy, that's why I think it's important. They are their own country (at least for the moment) so let's try to drop the Russian name. I see the media are struggling, with different journalists using the different versions. A bit like our Nige trying to speak a double barrelled name. Oh... and Badger I am male. Welcome Sizzle, as long as you don't degenerate into "Continual Poster, never reader", you'll always be welcomed by the Stokie Club.

Well done Admin BTW for restoring this thread to the front page.
As they said in the 80’s ‘Nuff Respect’ (I don’t know what the modern equivalent is).

We are with you.. The world is totally united against Putin to the extent even China is back-pedaling and Switzerland has picked sides. The only thing dictators like Putin respects is strength. This is no time for appeasement because there’s no reasoning with a deranged megalomaniac.

Thank you for support, friends. Here in Ukraine we do feel it. Sorry for not posting too often. Hard to find words. Disaster. russian fascists must be stopped. I don't know how people can do such things. they kill civilians. Women, children. Mariupol, Kharkiv, Chernihiv... Having very big losses in fights with Ukrainian army, they started using their dirty Syrian tacktics: bombing and shelling from distance. And they bomb peaceful cities and villages. I am sure you follow the news. It is impossible, just impossible to describe or explain what is going on here. Please, help Ukraine and help World to stop russian hitler now. Let us stay really united. Glory to Ukraine🇺🇦

Thank you all, friends. I am definitely not a hero. Real heroes are Ukrainian army and all other units standing between us and darkness. We all try to do everything we can to help, volunteering, donating army, sharing information. And simply trying to work to keep our economy. I just read your posts in this thread after February 23rd... Thank you very much, guys... You are amazing. Hope so much to see you all in Kyiv🇺🇦 after our joint victory. Vis unita fortior.

Stay strong Den. The horrors inflicted on Ukraine and its people are on CNN 24/7 in the US. You should know they are recording every war crime and every atrocity perpetrated by the evil bastard, Vladimir Putin. His Nuremberg will come one day.
I am proudly flying the blue and yellow flag from the front of my house and it won’t come down until this is resolved and the invaders are driven from your country.

Really great to hear from you Den. The news reports coming from Ukraine are horrific and the utter destruction Putin is causing on his peaceful neighbour is beyond belief. It's terrible to see the trauma and fear on peoples faces, but we've seen that the Ukrainians are a proud and strong nation and this evil dictator won't beat you. This is Putin's war and he should face the full consequences for his crimes. Hopefully it will soon stop and Ukraine can start the huge task of rebuilding the towns and cities that Putin has destroyed, and people can try to resume their lives. Ukraine is always in our thoughts !
Stay safe Den !

Den, we didn’t meet but I think we may have friends in common. Words can’t describe the admiration I have for the courage and resolve of you and your compatriots.. we’re all with you.
People are making donations but if there are particular organisations that you feel will help people who most need it quickly and directly, please post them if you’re able to. Whether it’s you, your family or just people in need of support more generally.

Hard to find words to express my gratitude to you, guys, and your great country. Ukraine needs so much more support with modern weapons (jets, radars, tanks). And sure we need oil and gas embargo for russian nazis. But it is a question not for the UK, but for Germany and France. We hope so much they will realize that this war is not only about Ukraine, but about whole Europe and whole World. Staying united. Glory to Ukraine🇺🇦 Thank you, the UK🇬🇧

Stay strong Ukraine. I used to think Putin was a smart man, playing the long game of cyber warfare, economics and subtle political disruption. But no, he's just an old fashioned tyrant.
He's backed himself into a corner he can't get out of. He's surrounded by yes men and he's put his country's image back 40 years. Russia cannot recover their prestige this way.
Ukraine needs to hold tight, however painful this is. You guys are on the right side of history. Stay strong.

One thing we have learned over this is that NATO would walk all over his crap armed forces anytime they chose. I'd do it now and take his country over and transfer Boris to run it down like he's doing here!

Putin has backed himself into a corner which makes me even more worried about his next move. The world needs Ukraine to stay strong and 'forces' within the Russian state to decide they need to move against the mad man before he gets them into an even worse position.

Please, keep supporting Ukraine. 🇺🇦🇬🇧 Great to hear you’re still ok and giving that evil bastard, Putin a good kicking. Nice job with sinking of the Moskva - that really gave Russia something to think about. Support for the people in Ukraine from the people of the United States is universal. We have sent over $1 billion in military and humanitarian assistance and there’s more to come if needed. Ukraine will prevail because Putin has managed to achieve exactly what he was trying to avoid: the reunification of NATO and a substantial increase in the border with the western alliance by inviting Sweden and Finland to join. Russia suffered a humiliating defeat in Afghanistan and they will suffer defeat again in Ukraine because their economy is weak. They will collapse once the west has found an alternative source of natural gas. Then the people will turn on Putin. correction. The US just sent an additional $800 million in military aid, bringing the total just shy of $7 billion.
