Although NATO couldn't act I wonder if the UN could send in peace keepers and call Putins bluff. There is a slight problem with the UN generally regarding Russian aggression particularly just now. The current president of the security council is… Russian! You couldn’t make it up!

The current president of the security council is… Russian! You couldn’t make it up! Yes but they can throw them out immediately, that should be one of the sanctions imposed and it should be done now. No fucking about throw them out of everything.

This is the new Coronavirus thread and more.
When I started this thread a few weeks ago, I never believed these horrors would actually unfold.

I expect China wouldn’t support that. So, unfortunately, the UN is pretty much a spent force. But, where possible, meaning for example UEFA and FIFA should send the packing. I see UEFA is meeting tomorrow to discuss so we’ll see then what they mean to do. Why they are waiting till tomorrow pretty shit, but let’s give them their due and see what they come up with. Expulsion is what I am expecting.

You should probably change the title… “Russia invaded Ukraine, what happens now maybe”, or if that is a little too derivative, how about “Putin is a bigger cunt than Bayern… discuss”.

No: I think you’ve been sucked into a culture war that doesn’t exist created by people who if they had to choose would be on Putins side. The same for the woke shite. It’s nonsense by right wing media to drum up hate. If you think I'm into anything woke then you're better off sticking to the football side of this board. I couldn't care less about anything 'woke'. Not that it matters in comparison to what's happening in Ukraine. Being into anything woke? What does that even mean? From what I can see, woke is what people with prejudices call people who have a conscience. Be more woke.

From purely a numbers game thought this was interesting: worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/military-spending-by-countryThe United States ($778 billion) China ($252 billion [estimated]) India ($72.9 billion) Russia ($61.7 billion) United Kingdom ($59.2 billion) Saudi Arabia ($57.5 billion [estimated]) Germany ($52.8 billion) France ($52.7 billion) Japan ($49.1 billion) South Korea ($45.7 billion Like football isn't played on paper but grass I suppose and wouldn't be surprised if China and Russia get more bang for their buck.

If ANYONE can make any sense of this post, please explain it to me because its making my head hurt trying to understand it. The Tories are funded by people close to Putin. The Russians have interfered in our elections, in our politics and want to fracture Europe. Brexit is the cornerstone of that. The current Tory leadership are in bed with the very people we're meant to be at war with. Keep not understanding it if you want. Plead ignorance. But this is fucked up. And the right wing across Europe are up to their eyeballs with Putin. They have been in bed with him for the last 15 years. I despair how far the right, the Tory party have gone. There are no morals there. And there seems to be no willing from people who have voted for them to admit they do anything wrong. It's awful. You ve been watching too much CNN mate.....best take a breather.

There was a Malaysian passenger plane traveling from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpar blown out of the sky by Russian forces on the ground in Ukraine around 5 years ago …it’s just more official now
The west have just let all that go unpunished by an occupying force for all these years

He's in it up to his eyeballs. Why were the sanctions so weak that we did the other day? Do you think it was just a mistake?

If you yourself don't know what it means then I suggest sticking to more familiar vocabulary.
