'This could explode' Boris urged to take a stand as Putin invasion sparks panic in Europe

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.

A tinder waiting to explode? How? Russia can do what it wants in Ukraine and the EU can do nothing about it. They can only hope that the Harris-Biden regime will do something.

I thought Boris had enough to do keeping Britain creating and enforcing lockdown rules.

But, much better the UK gets involved in all this than US.

The dems don’t know how to do the right thing.. And all they get their dirty fingers in.. Fails. Their wisdom is given to them by the pit... They are not going to have that global haven..

I just think God looking at biden and co... He sees the children in cages.. He sees the people flowing in.. And He sees their intent...
Plan
Their utopia and what they plan... The tower of babal.. It wont happen.

This is dated the 18th. The fear for this is already out of date.
