Britain remains “unwavering” in its support for Ukraine’s territorial integrity amid a “concerning” build-up of Russian troops on its border, Boris Johnson’s spokesman has said.

Jens Stoltenberg, secretary-general of Nato, said the western alliance was standing by Ukraine as he described a “large and unusual” concentration of Russian forces on the country’s borders.

He called on Russia to be transparent about its military activities to reduce tensions in the region and prevent an escalation.

Asked about the build-up of Russian troops on Ukraine’s borders, Johnson’s spokesman said: “We are seeing a concerning situation at that border. We remain in unwavering support for Ukraine’s territorial integrity and will continue to support them in the face of Russian hostility.”

Speaking after a meeting with Dmytro Kuleba,

I wish them luck since Slow Joe & the HO will run like the chickens they are, and little willy Millie will look the other way while reciting poems from some CRT-level quota writer who teaches first graders about LGBT love as a sideline.

Talk is cheap, no matter how we may view the particulars of this matter today. Talk is always cheap. UK has shown it is unwilling to defend its own borders against the Muslim invasion of the island. Who’s gonna believe it’s gonna try up defend Ukraine’s borders? Poppycock

Hopefully the Limey Command will send only childless British Soldiers so they don't have to worry about the Muzzie next door Grooming their Son or Daughter, while trying to keep Muzzies out of Poland.

I really need to get some of that SPF 5 million sunscreen, like lifeguards put on their nose.

These neocon and globalist idiots won’t be happy until they have the US Army fighting on WWII Eastern Front Battlefields like Sevastopol, Kharkov, or maybe 100 miles up the road in Kursk.

Meanwhile Texas is getting overrun.

Like a lot of those on this thread said. Under this administration, The USA is dead, Fred.

The Euro nations are on their own.

If Russia wants, they will be across the Ukraine in a matter of days.

Russia moves on the Ukraine, China will move on Taiwan. Joe will sh*t his pants, and the Ho will cackle after she lays her egg.

Literally fake news, even Ukraine itself is calling this “buildup” total BS

>Reports that Washington observed a worrisome movement of Russian military gear and troops close to the Ukrainian border have been popping up in Western media since late October, with The Washington Post being the first to amplify the allegation. Bloomberg last week said the US was warning European NATO allies of a possible Russian invasion of its Western neighbor.

>However, Ukraine has denied the claims, going so far as to issue a public statement accusing Western media outlets of relaying elements of propaganda. This is a major contrast with Kiev’s statements during the previous ‘imminent Russia invasion’ scare in April.

>Aleksey Danilov, the chair of Ukraine’s national security council, described the initial coverage in the US media as “intentional disinformation of our entire society” in a comment to RFE/RL, the US state-run foreign broadcaster.

I would hate to see the Ukraine losing those quaint ethnic Russian villages in obscure forests nobody ever went near.

And I think it’s worth the gamble on nuclear war to make sure those old Russian peasants cannot become part of mother Russia.

Don’t you?
