I suspect not, it’s one of the fundamental issues (and, taking the emotion of the current war out of it, entirely understandable)

Putin also knows that NATO membership has an entry requirement of not having disputed borders (written in to avoid, for example, Montenegro joining then immediately invoking Article 5 against Serbia). This is why he’s constantly pushing the boundaries against the likes of Georgia and Ukraine...

Orban’s backyard innit, loves Putin (and his cash) so probably arrests anyone with a Ukrainian flag

They likely will, but they'll let Russia and the West wear each other down (assuming they do) before acting, they don't want to provoke a war with the rest themselves

I'd probably be wary of crossing a certain bridge...

It’s amazing how many people still don’t seem to understand it’s not going to happen

To keep it on track, Iranian drones can’t be used to take out Ukrainian cities if Iran is sending them toward Israel, so in that sense (given Israel will just shoot pretty much all of these down quite comfortably) that’s a positive for Ukraine I guess?

And may I be the first to offer my congratulations to Vladimir Putin on securing a 99.7% vote in favour of Siberia remaining in Russia at next year’s referendum

Given it's pretty clear the US and UK (at least) knew this was coming a good 10 days ago and warned Russia, who seemingly didn't act on it, the more interesting question IMHO is why they seemingly ignored the threat; A. Arrogance and not wanting to be seen listening to "the west", which has had...

Oh that bit is all horseshit, unquestionably
