mclumber1 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I do wonder if NATO and/or the EU have set up any sort of tripwire of sorts where they would intervene, even if Russia had not yet actually attacked or threatened to attack any NATO or EU members?

CitizenVectron Posted February 28, 2022 Author Share Posted February 28, 2022 Republicans clearly don't actually believe in self-determination. They believe that the elites from one group (American people, Slavic people, etc) should be able to rule over the entire group because that's the natural order of things.

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Putin Declares a Nuclear Alert, and Biden Seeks De-escalation - The New York Times WWW.NYTIMES.COM When the Russian leader ordered his nuclear forces into “special combat readiness,” the U.S. could have gone on high alert. Instead, the administration tried not to inflame him. In response to the higher state of readiness announced by Putin yesterday, Biden had the option of elevating the US readiness level to DEFCON 3. Wisely, he declined to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 ‘They were fooled by Putin’: Chinese historians speak out against Russian invasion | China | The Guardian WWW.THEGUARDIAN.COM An open letter written by five historians denounced the war. They hope to persuade Beijing to make their stance clearer Quote For Xu Guoqi, a Chinese historian, Beijing’s reluctance to denounce Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is alarming. “I’m a historian of the first world war. Europe sleep-walked into a huge conflict over 100 years ago, which also had had enormous consequences for China,” Xu said. “The world may be at the point of no return again”. But looking at how Chinese diplomats are responding to it, and how Chinese people have talked about it on social media in the past week, he said, “I’m afraid it seems we still have not learned the lessons of the past tragedies. As a historian I’m very disappointed.” On Saturday morning, five renowned Chinese historians – Xu included – wrote an open letter denouncing Russia’s action on its neighbour and calling for peace. The authors of the letter hope to persuade Beijing to make its stance clearer: that what Russia is doing is wrong, and China should say it out loud. Ukraine: what will China do? There are signs it is uneasy about Putin’s methods “What will this war lead to? Will it lead to a large-scale world war?” the historians asked. “Great catastrophes in history often started with local conflicts. We strongly opposed Russia’s war against Ukraine. Russia’s invasion of a sovereign state by force … is a violation of the norms of international relations based on the United Nations charter and a breach of the existing international security system.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CitizenVectron Posted February 28, 2022 Author Share Posted February 28, 2022 I think it's been said here before, but is worth repeating: Putin's invasion of Ukraine, whatever the end results (Russian victory or not) has had the larger opposite outcome for Europe—the re-armament of Germany, and the end of total neutrality for Switzerland. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
