Putin promises 'serious consequences' to 'small, densely populated' European countries calling for Ukrainian strikes on Russia
Business Insider ^ | May 29, 2024 | Kwan Wei Kevin Tan

Russian leader Vladimir Putin says European countries should rethink their calls to let Ukraine use Western arms to strike his country.

"So, these officials from NATO countries, especially the ones based in Europe, particularly in small European countries, should be fully aware of what is at stake," Putin told reporters on Tuesday.

"They should keep in mind that theirs are small and densely populated countries, which is a factor to reckon with before they start talking about striking deep into the Russian territory," he continued.

Putin's warnings come after several European leaders said that Ukraine should be allowed to attack Russian military targets. While Ukraine has been a large beneficiary of Western military support, US restrictions mean that the country isn't allowed to mount attacks on Russian soil.

The West seems to think that they can escalate this thing, without it escalating on them. That trick never works.

Those F-16’s that are given and ‘not allowed’ to strike Russian territory? No problem. Strike Belarus.

You want a nuclear war so badly you can almost taste it, can’t you?

Absolutely brilliant!

Capitol idea.

Putin is currently deploying tactical nukes in Belarus and drilling with them.

Attacking a plausibly non Russian nation armed with tactical nukes is just the thing needed to provoke a limited nuclear strike on Ukraine from non Russian territory

So it would have been okay for Iraq to hit Canada or Australia because we were at war with them?

And he huffs and he puffs and... Yup, that's about it.

See this mushroom cloud Vlad? Picture yourself on the bottom of it, and then realize this...

That won't be your fate... Piano wire round your neck with electrodes attached to your nuts is a more likely scenario. Or... Some deadly poison that will eat away at you for a week or two. Or... If you're really lucky... A bullet in the back of your head.

Translation:
Putin filled his pants when he realized European countries are planning to widen his little war.

Maybe he’ll soon succeed in Russia being destroyed.

Alright, I am going to call a spade a spade. Can anyone doubt that the rancid rant above could only have come from the gutter mind of a gutter criminal spawned from a gutter criminal-infested nation named 'The Ukraine?'

Yeah, because small Euroweenie states are fearsome casting threats from behind the skirts of NATO.

Canada needs to get the hell out of NATO !

The last thing we need is threats from a big mouth like you that our military hasn’t been able to back up since Pearson.
