Russian Invasion of the Ukraine - The Official WW3 Thread

[arista]

It's a country trying to reclaim historical territory which is exactly what Hitler was doing so the comparison is very apt imo. Remember Hitler said he had no more territorial claims in Europe after the Sudetenland just like at first Putin was going to stop at Crimea, then it was just Donetsk and Luhansk, now it's the whole country

Thank god the other baltic countries are already Nato members


But Hitler
had other reasons
He Destroyed/Murdered Millions of Jews

Putin wants the Land.

We were putting sanctions on them before Ukraine even got invaded, that’s just the first stage. Watch soon, UK and US will aid, citing that Ukraine wanted to become NATO and they have to respect their wishes and prevent Russia from imposing communism on them

Netherlands: Dutch PM condemns Russia's attack on Ukraine; Illegal act, Defense Min. says
The Netherlands "strongly condemns the Russian attack on Ukraine," Prime Minister Mark Rutte said. "Our thoughts are with the Ukrainian people." The Russian invasion of neighboring Ukraine is "an illegal act of aggression with serious consequences," Defense Minister Kajsa Ollongren said. Russia launched its attack on Ukraine during the early hours of Thursday morning. There have been reports of explosions in multiple Ukrainian cities, as well as Russian troops in the coastal towns of Mariupol and Odesa.

The Dutch Prime Minister and the most involved Ministers will meet on Thursday morning for emergency consultations. "We are in close consultation with EU, NATO, and other allies," Rutte said on Twitter. Later in the day, he will travel to Brussels for a previously scheduled EU summit on the conflict with Russia. Parliament is also discussing the situation in Ukraine.

"Despite our repeated calls for diplomacy and de-escalation, Russia has launched an attack on Ukraine," Ollongren said on Twitter. "We are in close contact with our allies in NATO and the EU."

Russia will pay a "heavy price" for invading Ukraine, Minister Wopke Hoekstra of Foreign Affairs said. He too stressed that the Netherlands condemns the attack and that the Cabinet is in contact with EU and NATO partners.

Russian President Vladimir Putin gave an unannounced speech on Russian state television early on Thursday morning, announcing a military operation in Ukraine. According to Ukraine, the attack is not only coming from Russia. Russian troops are also attacking the Ukrainian peninsula Crimea and neighboring Belarus.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced martial law in an early-morning speech to his. According to Zelensky, "explosions have been heard in many Ukrainian cities," including Kyiv, Kharkiv, Odessa, and Kramatorsk. Images on social media show black plumes of smoke rising at the military airport of Kharkiv. Rocket attacks were hitting military infrastructure, he said. Russian troops also attacked Ukrainian border guards. The president advised residents of his country to stay home as much as possible.

The air-raid siren sounded in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv at around 7:00 a.m. local time, though no missiles had been sighted yet. The same happened in the Ukrainian city of Lviv, in the west of the country, a bit later. Several western countries, including the Netherlands, moved their embassies to Lviv earlier this month. AFP news agency reported no immediate reports of explosions or shelling

have to say good on Belarusian leader Lukashenko for admitting that there aren't any belarusian troops involved in this invasion


and also China for also not supporting Russia's invasion of Ukraine but wanting them to cease fire and renew talks between both nations



also soo according to Russia's president Putin, his reasons for invading eastern territories of Ukraine are

- the russian army saves Ukraine, that is what they are telling the people
- that Ukraine's government is a Nazi government, controlled from abroad
- that that government is trying to kill russian culture, russian language in their Ukraine, and that russian people living in Ukraine suffer discrimination for many many years now


don't think this will lead to a world war, but the way how Putin is attacking Ukraine is unacceptable, if Russia has these sort of problems they should have told the EU, UN about them rather than attacking Ukraine with force

There’s not much they could have done seeing as he had pretty much all of his opposition either killed or jailed and continuously rigged the countries elections, thinking that he became this powerful through Russian democracy is ridiculously delusional

He was nowhere as near powerful in his earlier years but he managed to change every law possible and becime dangerous with nobody willing to fight back

it's very easy to grab a load of land, it's a lot more difficult to keep it. The west will continually arm the ukranians, so russia have got a long long fight on their hands. It also costs an awful lot of money to keep 200,000 troops in position.

Yes it's my understanding that it will be all but impossible for Russia to hold Ukraine indefinitely - but they may be able to force regime change before leaving, which would effectively keep Ukraine as an "independent country" but one permanently aligned with Russia.

Did so as a means to attack the Tory party and its a fair point but let's not act like he hasn't sympathised with Russia or the USSR on almost every foreign policy issue of the last 50 years. Even when Russian agents murdered people with a chemical agent on British soil he was asking why we weren't sharing intelligence with them. He's appeared repeatedly on Russia Today throughout his career. Today he paid lip service to condemning Russia and then reverted to his comfort zone of attacking Israel over Palestine. Its bitterly ironic and that him and his 'Stop the War' crew were basically silent as an actual, deadly war really did break out on European soil and when they did finally respond they basically laid equal blame at NATOs door

Nice to see you here but if you're trying to make out Corbyn has a proud history of opposing Russian aggression then thats a seriously bad take mate

[MTVN]

Just look at the Stop the War statement and the section where they give their view of why the war has started. Its disgusting.

The conflict is the product of thirty years of failed policies, including the expansion of NATO and US hegemony at the expense of other countries as well as major wars of aggression by the USA, Britain and other NATO powers which have undermined international law and the United Nations.

The British government has played a provocative role in the present crisis, talking up war, decrying diplomacy as appeasement and escalating arms supplies and military deployments to Eastern Europe.

Yeah, just imagine wanting absolute proof of guilt. Much better to take the Reyna approach of shoot first, ask questions later. He's anti-war. do you want me to post pics of the PM at the time have a ladies night with Russians?

Cleverly admitted today, that Russians were/arer bankrolling Tories, because they were invested in stopping Corbyn, but he's the real friend of Russia, and not the guys who cash Russian cheques? Is that really what you're going with?

Appearing on Russia today? Dude, C'mon. I agree the sharing intelligence thing was off but he's the only leader of a party to suggest something neither of us agreed with?

Imagine sharing sensitive intelligence with a country using chemical weapons on your soil. If that's the best there is for Corbyn's opposition to Russia I think its pretty inadequate. And I don't even need to look to the past really, looking at what he and what Stop the War are saying right now is enough to tell me that these are people who will never properly stand up to Russian aggression, will never fully stand up for a sovereign nation that has been invaded today and where dozens of innocents have already been killed

I'm not going to defend the Russian money in the Tory party. Its obviously a problem and I'm fully aware I've had a lot of bad takes in the past when it comes to Russia. I made a comment that there were still useful idiots in the Labour party and I stand by that

[The Slim Reaper]

Today he paid lip service to condemning Russia and then reverted to his comfort zone of attacking Israel over Palestine.

Discussing the issue of illegal occupation and invasion in one country, is exactly the time to bring it up in other countries, especially when folks have buried their head in the sand on one of those instances.

The way anti-Semitism has been weaponised against him, you think this is a comfort zone?

Putin is not going to atomic bomb anything, let’s be realistic

Why is the US not currently involved? Because Ukraine means nothing to them, it doesn’t have any economic value to them, and it joining NATO would just be more burden on their shoulders. Biden is choosing not to get directly involved because of this, not because ‘Putin has the power to end the world at the push of a button’

So what if Ukraine gets invaded? It’ll be nothing more of a threat to the West than when the Communists ruled Romania, Hungary, Czechia, etc.

[user104658]

Putin is not going to atomic bomb anything, let’s be realistic

No he's not, because of M.A.D and the fact that Putin, as much as people try to paint him as such, is NOT insane. However without M.A.D there'd be much more scope for traditional armed conflict over Ukraine.

Well, he is insane actually.

Not just MAD, but the general stigma of using it, regardless of whether the US sent one back or not. Putin would be forced out of power by his own government and people, if not assassinated. He doesn’t want that to happen.

Was 1945 the last time an atomic bomb was used,?

Just look at CND in the 60s.

[rusticgal]

Putin must have some powerful backup in the knowledge that other countries will come to the defence of Ukraine. His threat to those countries today are either just a scare tactic or he really has some atrocity up his sleeve…and if he hasn’t then he is going to make himself look very stupid…all very unnerving.

If he did anything remotely audacious as what Putin has done the British public would have him out on his arse.

So yes if we were to let him get away with it then we would be responsible.

:facepalm: clueless as ever i see


Putin has a military force backing him and his government, yes those are also guilty, but not all russian citizens support him, they are just too afraid to voice their opinions, or not showing up during election years, and those who attempt to vote get stopped by the military and told to head back or else (same apparently goes down in Belarus, with Lukashenko's military goons)


why do you think the group Little Big didn't represent them last year while they were selected for 2020, because they voiced their opinions against Putin so they got ''cancelled'' by their government so to say, since Putin decides everything there in terms of who represents them at ESC either (same was for Belarus with Lukashenko deciding those things either, hence why they got dq'd for that pro-dictatorship turd of a song)

I actually think it's quite an interesting part of it and what makes the public perception of this conflict so different to other conflicts in recent memory... ... ...

Basically, the fact that both Russia and Ukraine seem to LOVE Eurovision. It's really demonstrative of something someone else said on this thread - that Ukrainians and Russians (at least, from the more populated areas of Russia) are very culturally similar to the rest of Europe. It makes it harder to detatch like the public tends to from things in the Middle East, or Africa, or China, where lots of "othering" can go on in peoples minds that makes it easier to process.

But this time? Russians and Ukrainians were on a sparkly stage with the rest of Europe less than a year ago ... Russian civilians are risking their freedom and their lives saying "we don't want this, we have friends and family in Ukraine" ... now bullets and missiles are flying. It's a strange thing to comprehend. A kind of conflict that hasn't really happened in living memory.

I've read a few places saying that even of those not actively demonstrating, the "usual response" to Putin is conspicuous by its absence ... i.e. the usual clapping and cheering he gets from the Russian people is noticeably quieter and less enthusiastic, strongly suggesting that many of those who haven't spoken out, or aren't in a position to actively speak out, are not in support. I think it's probably the case that many of those who do overall support Putin's expressed goals (of keeping the buffer zone between NATO and Russia) or even the wider goals of reintegrating former Soviet Union states, are not fully in support of the military action that's been taken.

[The Slim Reaper]

I'll gladly join the 'some'. I'm deighted that the commie, anti - semite, terrorist hugger got nowhere near real power because bascially, he's just scum - and thankfully these days, irrelevant scum.

Imagine seeing what Johnson has done to rights, freedoms, living standards etc, and still calling any other politician scum.

That's like being obsessed with a young lady who married into a dysfunctional family, whilst the old man was selling titles to Saudi's and the uncle was paying off people that he'd never even met.

I saw on the news yesterday that Russian State TV have played down the invasion of Ukraine - many Russians have not seen the extent of the firepower they have brought against their neighbours. I don't know how restricted the Russian population is with regards to external news sources but the footage the Russians had been shown on their TV news was very different to what we are seeing.

[The Slim Reaper]

the contrast between how the ukranians are defending their country vs how the afghans defended theirs is striking

Expecting a nation of tribal peoples to have the organisation and military capabilities of a modern western country is a consequence of differing realities. Ask the Russians how Afghanis can defend their country.

At least Russia isn't like China though ("The Great Firewall" etc. - China is basically walled off from much of the "real" internet and VPN use is risky) - they do have relatively open internet access and an internet-savvy population who will know how to circumvent any blocking that is in place with VPN's... so, they will definitely be seeing unrestricted footage out of Ukraine via social media and non-Russian media sources.

If folks in the UK ever decided to protest against their government the way the Russians are currently, priti patel will soon be able to lock them up for 10 years.

A lot of rightful criticism of Putins regime, but these are the kinds of things we've not only allowed in the UK, but actively cheered on.

On balance I honestly think it's highly unlikely that he'll invade a NATO member nation. Again as I said earlier... despite the narrative, Putin is not insane. Power hungry certainly but he's not some wildcard lunatic, he knows exactly what he's doing and where he can risk pushing. Ukraine was vulnerable because they had no official defensive pacts to protect against this aggression. It's happening NOW because they were trying to make those pacts and gain that protection, thus Putin has taken devastating action "before it was too late". It wouldn't have happened if they were already NATO.

It's one of the things that almost makes me go "full-Alf". Putin is using legislation that was put in place for COVID... and that's exactly the sort of legal technicalities the UK govt. will be able to use now that they couldn't have in 2019. The government has gained permanent increases in power to restrict and restrain the population from COVID law changes.

Never go full Alf :smug:


Even more worrying, is that these UK bills aren't anything to do with covid, they're just doing them because they have the majority to ram them through. Ask pretty much anyone in the UK prior to the Ukraine invasion, and they would have all said Putin was a dictator ruling by fear etc, but exactly the same types of policies are being introduced here under cheers and flag waving. Europe is in for another dark couple of decades.
