Ukraine-Russia Conflict

[JAYMAC]

The foreign secretary has announced the UK will send 24 ambulances to Ukraine, while on a visit to the country.
James Cleverly travelled to the capital Kyiv on Thursday and is set to hold talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
It comes just days after Rishi Sunak also made a visit to the city, his first since becoming prime minister.
Mr Cleverly said the UK stands "shoulder to shoulder with Ukraine" and that Russia's attack "will fail".
As well as ambulances, a further 11 emergency vehicles, including six armoured vehicles, will be part of the emergency package.

I know it's not Ukraine but I bet Ridsdale is happy this afternoon that someone arranged a transfer deal that has eclipsed any disaster he's ever overseen

Could be human error, I can't see it clearly... Unless the photo they uploaded was clearer.

Russia wants a World War and the way this is going, they're going to get one !

I can't see how we in the West can stand by and see Ukraine reduced to rubble like Syria was.

We've made this mistake once before of appeasement with Hitler. Putin and his cronies are megalomaniacs and will have to be stopped at some point.

Russia is spreading its' salami tactics throughout Europe. Everything is slice by slice and you just can't trust the Russians

Painful reading I know but it's coming and we need to be prepared for it.

Does he have a point?

Nope, he's just doing his usual play of taking a stand with the opposite view to whatever is the prevailing action or lack thereof.

Added benefit for him in this situation is that this helps his buddy Putin out also, win win for the Del-Monte Hitler.

It's very rare ( if at all ) that he has a sane one....
