    That may be one reason for Russia's aggressiveness.
    Pooteen can't keep up economically, so he plays the strong leader.
    But in reality, he's just a little stinky thug from the gutter.

    No one doubts the KGB authoritarian is from the gutter - and has economic aspirations like the rest of nations - which is definitely one of the reasons for moves on the board .. the days of land grabbing getting few and far between ... better grab while you still can. - try and do it with minimal damage as possible to yourself and/or nation.

    Funny you should say that because the white nationalists here all say there are too many blacks and gays on the BBC.

    I think gangsters like comrade Putin need to be treated with maximum harshness.

    Joe Biden (USA) does everything right. However, it makes me a little sad how my chancellor (Olaf Scholz, Germany) reveals a certain cowardice towards Putin. :(

    Those who threaten others with nuclear weapons are usually weak, because they are afraid of the echo. Nobody wants a nuclear escalation.

    But that's not the case for a lunatic like Putin. He will use nuclear weapons whenever he likes. Nobody can foresee that, or influence Putin not to do it. :(

    The Washington mafia is crazy adventurers. With their missile bases on the Russian border, they deprived Russia of the ability to check the attack signal. Now an exchange of nuclear strikes may begin due to a technical error.
    Do you want to die because some fly short-circuited an electrical circuit?

    The SM-3 is precisely 34.3 centimeters wide. The smallest (in diameter) current US nuclear weapon is the B-61 gravity bomb. It's 34 cm in diameter. That means it's warhead might just fit into the SM-3's air frame IF it went on a strict diet, worked out at the gym and had a girlfriend help it 'shimmy' into a tight dress on date night. Beyond that one small detail is that it weights better than 300KG so even after stripping of its casing it weights far more than the ANTI- BALLISTICS MISSILE (kinetic, non nuclear) warhead your talking about taking off the SM3. Try and stick a B-61 warhead on an SM-3 and it would literally crash and burn.

    After that you only have to account for one more 'minor' detail which is the fact the SM3 isn't designed to physically re-enter the Earths atmosphere to attack ground targets. It is strictly an ABM (anti-ballistic missile) not an ICBM (intercontinental ballistic missile).

    So you were saying?

    You said max harshness .. what does that mean .. obviously not nuclear weapons .. and we have not threatened that .. so what do you mean.. what should we be doing that we not doing now ?

    The claim that Putin will use nukes when ever he likes is irrational nonsense ..

    When did that horrible Washington mafia threaten to use nukes? Ok, how about when did we invade Ukraine? Crimea? Georgia? Chechnya?

    The reality is, when Putin tried to conquer all of Ukraine he sent a message, and the West heard it loud and clear. You know what it is, anyone paying attention knows.. Europe has a history of war going back thousands of years. They thought they finally got it under control. So, among the emotions they felt when Putin made it clear Russia was back in the business of conquering entire countries, was shock, and then outrage.

    That's why you got this incredible response from a bunch of countries that had been having trouble agreeing on the time of day.

    You can lie all you want, nobody in power is listening. We are united.

    No one wants to die because a mighty madman decides so. It's a short-circuit in Pootin's brain. And nobody can prevent it. :(

    Watched this right through. Interesting. But I doubt that Russia has this fatalist view that it intends to close the nine access
    points to Russia, including Poland and the Baltics. There won't be any Russia should that happen.

    I only mean diplomatic harshness. So no use of nuclear weapons or nuclear threats.

    Putin is crazy, as his attack on Ukraine shows.
    You can't further assume he's acting like a sane person. :(

    Putin knows exactly what he is doing, his plans are long range and he is not nuts. He had poor military advisors, equipment that was not what he believed and soldiers that didn't want to fight. Now he's trying to force concessions to salvage something from this misadventure.

    You're contradicting the rest of your post.

    Putin has absolutely no idea. He's failed and he will always fail. The Chinese will be happy about that. All they have to do is to collect Pooteen's remains. :D

    Russia warns United States against sending more arms to Ukraine

    https://news.yahoo.com/russia-warns-united-states-against-084812207.html

    Nobody cares about Russian warnings. Fascism is not OK in 21st century.

    Putin asked the West for equal security. Only and everything. The idiots didn't even discuss it.
    -------------------------------------

    On Friday, December 17, the MIL of the Russian Federation published draft agreements between Russia, the United States and NATO on mutual security guarantees

    Russia handed over to the United States drafts of a treaty on security guarantees and an agreement on measures to ensure the security of Russia and NATO countries, the Foreign Ministry said on Friday. The documents were handed over on December 15 to US Deputy Secretary of State Karen Donfried. On December 17, the documents were published on the department's website.


    In the draft treaty, Russia, in the introductory part, proposed to consolidate the principle of the impossibility of unleashing a nuclear war. In total, there are eight articles in the draft document, writes RBC.
    In the first article, Moscow proposes that the United States agree to act on the basis of the principles of indivisible and equal security, not harming each other's security, for which it proposes to take mutual obligations not to take actions and not to carry out measures that affect the security of the other side.

    That's whistling past the graveyard. Putin is sane and is operating on long range plans. He is not likely to be deposed.

    Putin has no choice. He must do everything so that US medium-range nuclear missiles cannot appear on the territory of Ukraine.

    I'm not interested in propaganda. I'm only interested in what can be placed in standard MK-41 containers. The SM-3 block 2 missile has a diameter of 21 inches and a range of 2500 km.

    Zelensky already said he is open to Ukraine not being in NATO. Didn’t influence the course of war in any way.
    All you do is parrot Russian propaganda.
