Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavarov summoned British and French Ambassadors to the Kremlin to warn them that an attack on Russian territory with their long range weapons may prompt a Russian response against UK & French bases. Russian General Staff is also reportedly considering plans for nuclear strike on Ukraine's training base Selidovo, which has many foreign soldiers and instructors.
Looking at the map Selidovo is not far from Donetsk City. The Russians can easily use Iskander Missiles with conventional warheads to destroy any facility in that town. However, It seems Moscow’s patience with Biden and the DC Clown Show is at an end.
Macron clearly pushed too far and we did nothing to him. Bottom Line: Moscow will no longer tolerate strikes on its territory.
Moscow is also unwilling to pretend that we and other NATO members are not co-belligerents. In sum, Washington’s proxy war in Ukraine on Russia’s doorsteps must end. Given that Ukrainian Forces are defeated and collapsing, it would be wise to suspend further military aid and tell Kiev to ask for a ceasefire.
Failure to do so could precipitate a European war with Russia for which the US Armed Forces are not prepared. 3:45 PM · May 6, 2024
