I should add, originally the opportunity to revisit Minsk deal was available and some hoped May 9th would have been used as the opportunity.
Russia has proven it has no interest in a solution, only its land grab. In response to the terrorist campaign Russia must not, NOW, be allowed any gain including back to 2014 with the initial land grab in Crimea.

Russia is 100% responsible for waking up Nato and the sooner it feels the Nato Jackboot kicking down walls in Moscow the better.

"The reason I feel that this could escalate is because we were told four or five months ago Russia would be totally outclassed in UKR and would be wthdrawing not only fom the south and east but also from crimea.
Exactly the opposite has hppened."

100% absolute undiluted CRAP!
The narrative was the 180 degrees, the exact opposite. It was Russia who were supposed to walk all over the country and have failed.

And what is the existence of Kaliningrad itself if not a threat of a forward staging base to attack nordic states? Kaliningrad was a very clear threat to the Baltic region yet it as accommodated and even granted a land access route through a ato country. You have to be pretty paranoid to read that accomodation as a threat. Just another spectacular debacle of Putin's total cluck up.

Just how sick can these Russians get?

""Over the last several days, we've become aware of assassinations of local Russian officials," the official said.

"And we're also aware that reporting suggests Ukrainians have been successful in liberating several small towns northwest and west of Kherson.""

It is time for the deluded to get real. Ukraine will be fighting for their land back for decades. as the have engaged since 2014. Now the war is out in the open and this is where it will stay. Stop wishing for peace deals due to any strategic Russian gains, it simply is not going to happen. Any eventual Russian ceasefire whilst still on Ukraine territory will be meaningless.

Poly must split, extradite itself and dump the toxic assets - and soon!

Russia only has creeping advances in Donbas because it already had a substantial presence through the Russian militia there and certain European countries promised heavy weapons but then stalled because they thought they were clever enough to make some magic peace deal against a child murdering psychopath.
Well the heavy weapons are arriving and the Russian losses are going to accelerate wit supply lines cut off behind them. This will be a bloody end with WW1 levels of slaughter, but it has to be done if the generals will not call it off at the front and turn the guns on the Kremlin.

".leaving 85% of the world for Russia to trade with"

Trade what? Russia insists on the Ruble for payment of its goods, but few in that 85% are prepared to deal in Rubles. And what are they going to buy? The s.it Russian industry makes is years out of date and now missing vital components. And now the Russian weapons have been shown to be worthless, not only will sales completely dry up, I can see a lot of countries wanting their money back. And food? Given the grain crisis Russia has started, how to you know you are not receiving stolen goods? I suspect UN agencies will have something to say about aid budgets if countries turn out to be buying dodgy Russian sourced grain whilst large numbers face starvation.

Every which way you turn this is a complete mess with Russia alone is making worse day by day. The longer poly maintaines links to russia, the worse it will be post war. There is no riding this out because o the reach of the effect of the terrorist action. Everyday there is a new embarrassing horror dealt by Russia.

You are literally on your knees begging for Ukraine to give in and save Russia from this never ending humiliation.

Defending Europe can include taking preemptive action, as in the Balkans although nato was slow to respond. I personally think Putin will test the west and nato with Belarus attacking Poland. Nato and Russian forces will clash within Belarus as a consequence. I Putin continues unopposed then that conflict will escalate to all out war. It won't be nuclear. The critical error will be accepting a withdrawal of Russia as an ending rather than going into Russia and imposing a occupying government for a decade or two until all Russian nukes are eliminated and the country is no threat to anyone in the future.

"egoistic dictators" he is elected and overseen by an independent elected parliament that could move against him and th defence if they wished.

They do not wish.

Again, you have this attitude that it is all Ukraines fault. WHO INVADED WHO? You lot are clearly very angry Russia has failed and been humiliated and wish to blame everybody else. And that pigheaded superiority complex back in the Kremlin will lead inevitably Russia being erased from the future.

Just how many times do you think the rest of the world is going to have Russia cause yet more trouble before nato goes for it? Russia is going to be invaded eventually if there isnt amajorrevisinof its foreign policy. And all the signs from nato are tat thi i t, Ukraine was the red line. 300,000 troops to be mobilised. Notto take out ussia, honest gov, that's just Russian media hysteria, honest guv!

Should also point out, China's ongoing zero covid policy is dong far, far, far more damaged than any sanction rebound and is he main component in the current fuel prices, the price hike starting well before the war. Also, a lot of the inflation comes from huge logistics costs increases for shipping from China. China is hurting itself significantly for no covid advantage. The consequences of the Ukraine war on the west is more than bearable and launching all out war on Russia to permanently remove the warmongers from our future will be a worthwhile investment.

I think you will find it is not the number of countries applying sanction, but the type of sanctions that is important. Most countries in BRICS do not have the scope to even apply many of the sanctions, hey don't have the financial markets, supply lines or other mechanisms to withdraw. So it is not so much they are not taking part, it is they can't at the moment.

Your splitting hairs on the exact word. How many RNSs as anybody read where the company has had to make such direct expressions related to solvency/insolvency? Only those under intense scrutiny and judges by commentators to be vulnerable with the company trying to issue denials. Such a sentence, "The Board and the management continuously evaluate stability, liquidity and solvency of the business in light of multiple external uncertainties." caught my eye which is why I am curious as to why the Russia assets have not yet been disposed of.

"they can run the business at the moment with seemingly minimal impact "

so, why in the last statement did they declare they are even assessing the 'insolvency' of the company. That is not a word businesses use in statements without cause. There is a danger the company could be isolated and with the debt level suddenly become insolvent. Another reason to split and avoid being dragged down with Russia.

The alert was on the Investing.com app. Maybe the 90 as an intraday and the app is only going by closing prices.

And what does FUD mean? I keep being accused of it.

The assets in Russia are toxic, toxic, toxic.

The product from the assets in Russia are to be made toxic, toxic, toxic.

Poly has no option but to do what a wide variety of other companies have done and dump the toxic assets. Poly is now lagging behind the others that have dumped and the sp continues to suffer. Now it has just touched a 52 week low.

The board must act and exit Russia to save the company. Continuing association with Russia will end the company. Poly will become increasingly seen as associated with Russia as a supporter and other business will not want to buy from or sell to the company.

The split is now essential.

"they made an error in assuming they would be welcomed with opening arms"

An 'error'? Are you saying they were just a smidgin off target? Minor underestimate? One char off their password?

An 'error'!

Preparations to take out Russia continue.

The fate of Russia rests with a few generals, well at least the ones left after a number 'disappeared' over last week.

No chance! There is no way a listed company is that formal and to anybody else, do not email the company and reveal information in your email header that can be used to trace you. I wouldn't trust anything suggested on this board.
