Access to the Black Sea for their navy.Eh? You were just claiming that Russia has some mystical right to a land bridge through Ukrainian territory, just coz, and blaming Ukraine for making attacks on Russian forces within Ukraine.
Whats that got to do with NATO?
Concede…….Don’t you mean that Ukraine should’ve stopped encroaching on Russia?Lebbo asked if people would prefer Putin just let things continue on as they were in Crimea and Donbas.
If your position is anything for less people to be killed, as you've just confirmed again is the case, then yes obviously that would have been preferable. Now thats not hard to understand surely, and unsure how its a strawman.
Your response is a textbook example of what I was talking about re: it always seeming to be Ukraine's responsibility to make sacrifices for the peace at all costs crowd - I outline some honestly pretty straightforward logic, your first impluse is to call it a strawman and again imply the onus is on Ukraine to concede.
I know.Access to the Black Sea for their navy.
Concede…….Don’t you mean that Ukraine should’ve stopped encroaching on Russia?
You’re only saying this because you want Russia to be defenceless.I know.
1. Why do are they entitled to that access through another nation's sovereign territory?
2. What has that mythical entitlement got to do with NATO? Ukraine aren't a member.
Not their core territory, just a little winning prize from WW2 (and an ice free port for their Baltic fleet)Ever heard of Kaliningrad?

We don't say Australia is next to France just because they still control New Caledonia
Not justifying Russia's actions (very counterproductive for their cause), but can see the reasoningSure, but we don't justify attacking other nations because of the threat of a border with NATO ...

I want Russia to not invade other countries.You’re only saying this because you want Russia to be defenceless.
It isn’t mythical. It has been accepted as non-negotiable like forever.
I agree but they had a legitimate reason. What’s the US’s reasons for invading and removing leaders of countries based on PMS?I want Russia to not invade other countries.
Russian access to a land bridge inside Ukraine's internationally recognised borders has been accepted as a non-negotiable like forever? Umm no I don't think so?
Not making a whole lot of sense here old son, even by your standards
What was it? 4 or 5 posts into this discussion I'm still not sure what you think it is - "coz NATO" or "Ukraine is Russia"?I agree but they had a legitimate reason.
Unsure what that has to do with the topic, but let me know what instance you're talking about and I'll let you know their stated reasons (which will almost certainly be as bullshit as Russia's are).What’s the US’s reasons for invading and removing leaders of countries based on PMS?
Tbh I do think a fair amount of the world's problems are caused by PMS.I agree but they had a legitimate reason. What’s the US’s reasons for invading and removing leaders of countries based on PMS?
C'mon, even you must recognise the issue with Trump ruining the Iran peace deal while he was in office?So much for that NPC line "eVeRy aTtAcK fRoM a CoNsErVaTiVe iS a CoNfEsSiOn"!!

It has surprised even me how poorly the Biden admin has dealt with foreign policy, with new conflict after new conflict kicking off. At least we had those 4 years where NK, China and Russia were all chill, things comparatively peaceful across the ME, soldiers being brought home from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, you name it m8. Now we're back to the bad old warmonger days of the Obama/Bush years. Dark days indeed
True story!Trump ate Joe’s uncle.
Uncle Bosie was a tremendous athlete.True story!
Now waiting for Joey to insert himself on Apollo 11 for the moon landing anniversary.
Poor FK. A sniper from these parts must’ve injured him.EasternTiger Looks like you're struggling for engagement without FK fluffing your balls.
Are you ok?
RIP Uncle Bosie.Uncle Bosie was a tremendous athlete.
However he could not outrun the fascist cannibals of the pacific.
Vale.
LOL just one?Poor FK. A sniper from these parts must’ve injured him.
