Since most of the news posted to Free Republic is NATO media or Ukraine based, I thought I'd post from Tass to show what the Russians are saying as Zelensky begins to publicly invite foreign troops from NATO nations into Ukraine. The Ukraine was started as a result of the US overthrowing the Ukraine in 2014 in order to put NATO troops on Russia's border - within 4 days of the coup in Ukraine, Russia annexed border regions to create a buffer zone.A few weeks ago, Zelensky bragged that Ukraine now had missiles which could reach Moscow; this was something Putin tried to avoid by barring NATO troops from Ukraine in the first place. Trump responded by hinting that the US may have to get directly involved in Ukraine (to stop Zelensky) and Zelensky dropped the topic.
Alexander Mercouris and others have noted that NATO tactics via Zelensky in Ukraine have been a series of attempts to start a war involving the US versus Russia. Hegseth has already told NATO nations that the US would not support article 5 (mutual defense) if they are attacked by Russia re Ukraine.
Before peace can happen, NATO and Zelensky are trying to start the war they've been after by inserting NATO troops into Ukraine again, by not calling them NATO troops.

Trump has been pushing the Europeans to bear more the burden. He may get them to do so, but not in the way he expected.
If the Brits are stupid enuf (and I think they are) to deploy troops to Ukraine, then the population of Britian better get ready for some kinetic fun on *their* homeland.
FOOLS.
A tripwire. what a novel idea by EU warpigs!
