Russia has banned The PM and most of
the cabinet from entering Russia.

I do not think any would enter Russia
any more.

Not while Putin is in power anyway. My prediction (assuming the world doesn't get destroyed in the meantime) is that once Putin is gone - whether that's being removed or when he eventually dies - a new regime will take over and then they'll start reaching out diplomatically. Much like post-ww2 Germany, I suppose.

The paper says Aiden Aslin's brother has hit
out at claims from Russia that he is a spy

more to secure his release.]

The Ukrainian president orders his troops to fight to the death and is not allowing them to surrender.

Hitler did the same thing when it was obvious that Germany was losing the war.

your pro russian stance is becoming tiresome. Maybe you think you are being funny/smart but you are not

He didnt order them to fight to the death, the army said they wanted to fight to the end. It's always an individuals choice in the end. They could dessert like so many thousand russian soldiers

You and bitontheslide Misrepresent my position.

Ghandi once said "An eye for an eye only makes everyone blind"

From my experience, not every bully can be stood up to. Some have to be acquiesced to because they are too powerful and are willing and able to take extreme action.

Putin is one such person, given his KGB connections, which I said from the get go.

There has been a tremendous loss of life as the "plucky" Ukrainians put up a fight. This only aggravated the situation and escalated things. Something, with some people, you do not do. It seems many here have ignored the wisdom of Ghandi, a man who threw off the British and led India to independence, so he must have known what he was talking about.

As for arista near the beginning of this, I am certain that the Ukrainian president did issue the order not to surrender to the troops. I am an amateur historian, so I pointed out that Hitler did the same thing regarding the issuing of orders. That is just historical fact. They may not be the same people, but it seemed that they did exactly the thing, regarding the issuing of orders.

If Zelensky had taken the American offer to leave for the west and the troops surrendered, there may not have been so much bloodshed here.

Violence only breeds more violence.
Ghandi knew that, and his passive non violent ways bore fruit.

And had people not fought back against Hitler and Nazi Germany, where would we be today? What are the Ukrainians meant to do? If they had surrendered easily and Putin then turned his attention to other non Nato countries and then eventually the rest of Europe as his troop numbers grow..were they all to surrender too until a New World Order is established and Putin rules all? What kind of world would our children and grandchildren have to look forward to then?

He won't attack Poland initially as they are members if Nato but has threatened escalation if Sweden or Finland want to join Nato. He is not acting like a rational leader so who knows what he could / will do
