RE: What the f*ck has this all been for???16 Mar 2022 11:16
The sabre rattling should have achieved the same aim, but, i think certain people convinced him that NATO was there for him etc. Looks like he learned the hard way that they're not. That base near the Polish border is a NATO type of base, where UK and US personnel go to train Ukraine forces etc, it's perhaps what helped provide the illusion that they would be there for him.
Personally, i'm glad that it will all end without him becoming a martyr and it will end very soon on a general conflict length scale.
My heart goes out to all of the innocent people who have been caught up in the whole thing, it's always the every day person that suffers the most in these situations, such a terrible shame in this day and age! They should find far better ways to settle their differences, war and conflict shouldn't be required these days imho
