Russian President Vladimir Putin warned Friday that any direct confrontation with NATO troops would result in “global catastrophe,” as he claimed that his divisive mobilization was nearly complete. The Russian leader warned Kyiv’s allies against any military presence in Ukraine while speaking with reporters from the Kazakh capital of Astana. “The introduction of troops into a direct confrontation with the Russian army is a very dangerous step that could lead to a global catastrophe,” he said when asked if the conflict could eventually involve NATO and Russian troops in direct combat.

I heard there are 10's of thousands of Polish troops already on Ukrainian soil, and fighting, wearing Uke uniforms.

There is so much bad info out there, I was just curious.
I’m expecting a neighbor to return from Poland soon. Will be interesting to hear their take.

Risking nuclear armageddon over a corrupt to the bone country with a government initially installed through a violent coup and run by a sexual deviant tyrant.

Madness.

Whether there’s a confrontation with NATO or not is entirely up to Comrade Putin.

The Great Reset crowd (who brought you the biological weapons known as COVID and the associated terminator vaccines and the economy destroying lockdowns meant to eliminate 90% of the world's population) that owns Ukraine WANTS a global nuclear war.

They think they will survive in their New Zealand escape compounds and emerge to a Walden paradise with the human insects they despise so much all dead.

NATO is using Article 5 to justify it’s defense of a non-NATO member.

Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is Putin’s fault.
NATO’s involvement is NATO’s fault.

I remain unconvinced of that.

I think folks let themselves get carried away on these
matters. I know we don’t like certain players out there
and for good reason, but that doesn’t mean those players
want to see billions of people vaporized.

You neocon trash said the same thing about Milosevic. You said the same thing about Hussein. You said the same thing about Gaddafi. And you’ll say the same thing about whatever individual you plan on turning your geo political sights on next.

Exactly.

The guy has his troops deep into a neighbor nation, and is
barking orders as if he’s the injured party.

What a narcissist.

Imagine being sick enough mentally, that you would seriously
threaten other nations who had nukes. The guy is mentally
unstable. His fellow political people need to get him out
of office before he goes off the deep end.

Saw it today on a Scott Ritter video, he said the Russians know it, too, they’ve been finding the bodies. Tried to find spot in one of the several videos where he said it, but couldn’t find it.

“this mad dog realize his nation is on the same planet he plans on destroying?” Are you referring to Biden or Putin?

“”They think they will survive in their New Zealand escape compounds and emerge to a Walden paradise with the human insects they despise so much all dead.””

That is why the world’s nuclear powers should all agree that no matter, who, how, or why a nuclear war starts, every nuclear power will promise to devote 3% of its nuclear release to New Zealand.

“yet we keep poking da bear”

****

It’s weird. If you look back over the past couple of years, and assume that all the major nations states believe a world war to be inevitable, it would explain a lot of the current and prior weirdness.

If you push Putin too far, he may start sending mean tweets
