Ukraine war: Russia accuses UK of provoking attacks on its territory
https://www.bbc.co ^ | 4/26/2022 | By Adam Durbin

The Russian government has accused the UK of "provoking" Ukraine into attacking Russian territory.

Russia's defence ministry said it was ready to hit "decision-making centres" in Kyiv should such attacks occur.

The presence of Western advisers at such centres might not affect its decision to retaliate, it added.

It comes after a UK defence minister said it was "not necessarily a problem" for Ukraine to use UK-supplied arms against military targets in Russia.

James Heappey said Ukrainian military strikes to disrupt supply lines were a "legitimate" part of war, and described Russian claims of Nato being in conflict with Russia as "nonsense".

Russia has claimed Ukrainian forces have attacked targets within its territory, including an oil depot in Belgorod, but Ukraine has not confirmed any strikes.

Yeah, the CIA has been training the NAZIs in Ukraine. Just like they did with the Afghan mujahideen, Taliban, Al Queda, etc. It never turns out to make the world better or more peaceful or more pro-American. It’s almost as if the CIA is working hard for some other entity.

I’m afraid we won’t have till fall.
The left realized some time ago that
a President has a lot more power during
wartime. They just didn’t have the right
occasion, now it’s here.

Our hope IS to gain control of two branches of government
in the fall. Although the past history of Republican
government to right political wrongs is woefully lacking.

If by some fraudulent stroke of lightening we should
lose both...well we wouldn’t want to get rid of
President Biden during a war would we???.../S

I know what you mean.

I agree with your take on it. Especially the Republican’s
lack of righting wrongs.

Here we had the full majority, and didn’t lift a finger to
fix anything during Trump’s first two years.

It’s why they are so terrified of a Trump return to
the Presidency...Trump as a wartime President with
all the powers of the executive...and the House and Senate.
He has suffered at the hands of the left, I doubt he
has forgotten it.

“I guess it’s just normalcy bias but no one wants to acknowledge that World War III just started.”

Might as well enjoy the ride.

Nice talking to you. It’s been a long time since we’ve met.

Wish you well also.

“You are very mistaken.”

Then if you’re so assured of victory in a nuclear war then what are you waiting for? I am weary of Russian threats. I’ve been hearing Russian threats for decades.

Get on with it or shut up.

“I trained Ivan’s in Moscow for three years”

Oh, so it’s your fault that Russia can’t defeat Ukraine. I’ll be sure to notify Vlad so he can have you arrested with the other traitors to the Rodina.
