UKRAINE is like "a tinderbox waiting to explode", a Tory MP has warned amid reports that more than 100,000 Russian troops are massed along the country's eastern border and in Ukraine in what he described as "increasingly destabilised situation".
And Daniel Kawczynski has said Germany’s decision to press ahead with its controversial Nord Stream 2 pipeline deal amounts to “pouring petrol” on the region – while revealing he had written to Prime Minister Boris Johnson urging him to “take the lead”.
Mr Kawczynski, the MP for Shrewsbury and Atcham, was speaking at a time of high tensions, with Ukraine’s defence minister Andrii Taran yesterday claiming 110,000 Russian troops were currently deployed at the borders. Ukraine's Foreign Ministry subsequently claimed Russia's FSB security service briefly detained a Ukrainian diplomat in St Petersburg yesterday.
Referring to Nord Stream 2, an undersea pipeline which would bring gas straight to Germany, bypassing the Baltic States and Poland, he added: “I think the British Government's lack of public challenging this project, through sanctions, which is what I've called for, is actually undermining Britain's role on the continent of Europe with many of these countries.
“What we're, what we're hoping for beyond what we're hoping for is that in September’s elections, the Greens who are currently polling 20 percent in the opinion polls in Germany, will become a partner with the CDU and the Greens will make it a condition on entering the coalition to say, you've got to stop this project.

The only people panicking are Ukraine.
And not all of them.
This is bad
I wonder how much worse it would be if the Orange guy were still playing the puppet.
The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming...NOT
They are as Peter Hitchens has pointed out a declining nation a shell of their former self.
This is warmonger porn dare I say it.
But porn has certainly done its dirtiest in the world we live in with declining fertility rates.
Among the nations impacted Russia.
Turn the water back on in Crimea and the Russians might go home.
Good way of putting these happenings......”This is warmonger porn”
Article discusses pipeline from Russia to Germany.
Horrors! Germany is buying natural gas from Russia
Not our problem.
What is the main problem of the pipeline bypassing Poland and the Baltic States? Genuine question as I’m not fully sure I understand what their complaint is if the pipeline doesn’t pass through their countries. I can understand why they may not want Germany to buy gas from Russia, but why should the pipeline pass through the Baltic States/Poland? What am I missing?
Boris needs to ask his wife what his stand is.
Europe will have to clean up their own back yard. There need not be any American loss of life if it hits the fan. American has been unappreciated in Europe for too long. We are the piggy bank they can rob at will. It’s time they take the lead and solve their problems.
Is this guys problem with Russia or Germany?
The bypass is so that Putin can cut off the gas to Ukraine and East Europe, but still supply Germany. In the event of a military conflict in the East, Germany continues to get gas if they stand aside.
That is it. It is also Germany’s off ramp from NATO, if it ever has to actually do anything. Like Belgium in the 1930’s. Declare neutrality and expel all foreign troops.
They are already flexing very capable muscles on the Ukrainian border, and they easily have the strongest leader on the world stage.
We should let Russia take Ukraine and focus on our own substantial problems at home (besides, isn't Ukraine part of Biden, Inc.?)
The German Huns, led by former Communist Party Member Angela Merkel, have handicapped their own energy industry and will soon make themselves dependent on Russian natural gas as their “green” energy inevitably fails. This is not an accident.
Trump would not have let Russia take Ukraine nor any place else without warning and sanctions and more.... if biden does nothing if Russia invades Ukraine, they will know he is a blank slate and Russia will be emboldened to look at the US... we are being invaded on the south by whom we do not know.. and as unsettled as we’ve ever been... ripe for an attempt by china or russia. and biden has no clue and no know how to do anything... his “company” are all globalists and who knows to what length or war globalists will go for their kingdom outside of POWER and CONTROL... over all and they sit in the seat of power... that is what satan said in the Bible... i’d hate to be on that side of the equation.
Boris has a vagina and will do what Vlad tells him
