Russia warns of 'enormous danger' if NATO sends troops to Ukraine
REUTERS ^ | May 8, 2024

Posted on 05/08/2024 6:22:06 AM PDT by McGruff

Russia said on Wednesday that sending NATO troops into Ukraine would potentially be extremely dangerous, and Moscow was closely watching a Ukrainian petition that called for such an intervention.

The petition, posted on the Ukrainian president's website, says Ukraine should ask the United States, Britain and other countries to send troops to help it repel Russia's invasion.

"We have repeatedly said that direct intervention on the ground in this conflict by the military of NATO countries potentially carries enormous danger, so we consider this an extremely challenging provocation, nothing less, and, of course, we are watching this very carefully."

—> What your link says is normal preparedness.

1. Back up and admit I didn’t make it up
2. If it is “normal preparedness” why was it announced.

Russia will use battlefield nukes on NATO forces in Ukraine.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

No Russia can’t. Just relax my FRiend.
Western tactical nukes would could easily be use in retaliation against Russia. Putin’s knows this.
He doesn’t want to lose his opulent wealth and all his Dachas... And his mafia boys want to keep their wealth as well... they would assassinate Putin, another coup in Russia, if he ordered a nuclear strike against anyone.

Putin is just a big mouth, he screams NUKES NUKES NUKES all the time,,, since 2 years now.... yawn... boring...

“””””Germany announced on the 7th it will send 35,000 troops to ukraine.”””””

You made that up out of thin air.

As far as a NATO countries saying they have X number of troops ready to help their NATO allies if attacked, that is a routine and normal statement of readiness at that moment, it has nothing to do with your very precise and specific made up claim that Germany is sending 35,000 troops to Ukraine.

Yeah... That would be "Bad"TM

It would all be over tomorrow if Putin would just pack up his toys and go home. Russia is VAST. He doesn't need to reassemble the Empire from 100-150 years ago for them to be wealthy beyond the dreams of Croesus.

No Zeeper_ansel.

Your statement is an emotional dishonesty.

No worries, I’ve seen it a hundred times from Zeepers.

It is your claim, your post, and it is a lie, and your response is only name calling and claiming we aren’t seeing what you posted?

A number of French nuclear submarines are on duty non-stop, 24h/24h, 365 days out of 365 days.
A single nuclear attack against France, means Moscow would be vaporized - at best. At worst, every single Russian city.

France has developed its redundancy strategy to near perfection. French subs could easily get the orders to destroy Russia, even after Paris would have been vapourized first.

Again, the end or the world would follow. Putin would benefit from that? No.
That’s why he is gaslighting so much, yelping angryly and endlessly like small dogs usually do.

Big dogs though... they have all the nukes necessary but never need to utter the “nuclear word”, not even once. They are self-confident enough, they are the ones deserving respect.

France is very weak and blustery, as usual.

They would be toast before they could set down their cheese.

Macron is unpopular and a weak leader, pushing to lead the EU.

The EU is weak, bordering on financial failure, as a Marxist institution.

Big dogs indeed bark to warn predators away. Have you ever owned a big dog french_zeeper?

Putin is a monster, but he is not an idiot. He will continue to pound his chest for the home front.

He knows that Russia cannot win a war against NATO. That just results in nukes. HE might be able to survive in his bunker. But the rest of Russia would be in ruins.

“Big dogs indeed bark to warn predators away. Have you ever owned a big dog french_zeeper?”

>>>>>>>>>>>

You confirmed my point!
The big dogs in the West aren’t barking because they know Russia can’t use its nuclear arsenal. Thus, the West isn’t afraid about Russia’s nuke threats. Thus, no barking from the West!

Putin though... seems scared to death about NATO. That’s why HE has been barking about his nukes non-stop for over two (2!) years now! It’s a sign he is scared down to his bones.

Small dogs yelp constantly for nothing, bark bark bark.

Big dogs bark rarely, only when it’s necessary,

The Minsk Accords? You are joking I presume?
The Minsk Accords were a scam, thus... logically doomed to fail.

Let me refresh your memory.
Ukraine’s massive Crimea region was invaded and stolen by Russia on February 20th, 2014.

The so called “Minsk Agreement” of September 2014 came 7 months AFTER Russia had already annexed Crimea...
The Minsk accords never demanded that Russia had to give Crimea back to Ukraine! Can you imagine, what a scam!

How on earth could anyone agree to letting a huge chunk of one’s country to a thief who stole it in the first place, and then have to AGREE on suck unfair situation??

Imagine if Mexico suddenly invaded and annexed Texas, and then said, “hey, let’s sign a peace deal with Washington now.. but we keep Texas of course.” Don’t you see how bombastically crazy that sounds? Well, that is exactly what they wanted to push down Ukraine’s throat!

Minsk agreement = Scam.

Well, if Bucharest and Minsk were just a scam then let’s let Ukraine and Russia fight it out. Unless NATO wants a world war. Which is really what this is all about. Russia has much more to fear from NATO than NATO has to fear from Russia.
