Putin Threatens Nuclear War Against The Planet, As Experts Question His Sanity
Putin made clear his true target is America’s “empire of lies,” and he threatened “consequences you have never faced in your history” for “anyone who tries to interfere with us.”
Given Russia’s nuclear arsenal, he said, “there should be no doubt that any potential aggressor will face defeat and ominous consequences should it directly attack our country.” He added: “All necessary decisions have been taken in this regard.”

The same story will be written about Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Zelensky is gonna wake up with "no inkling" it is his last day in Ukraine. The next day, Putin's new President takes over Ukraine. Who knows if Putin will name himself as Ukrainian President?

He better hurry. And even if he does, he will never hold it. Nobody's heart is in this but his. There is no long game. Hell, there is no short or medium game except death and destruction - Putin's true talent. I'll wager Ukrainians are even more emboldened to fight back now, at whatever cost. More so than before they ousted Yanukovych. They've had 8 years of "Not Putin" and they don't want to go back.

Quote:Putin may have lofty ambitions, including actually running Ukraine, but all he really needs to do is either kill or chase the President of Ukraine out of the country. Then all Russian troops can withdraw. If Ukraine wants to elect a new President, Putin prevents an election from being held, which is easy. Putin only gets into a guerrilla war if he tries to do something more complicated than keep Ukraine out of NATO.

I think the present government of Ukraine is already doomed, but in the aftermath the rest of the world needs to be harsh with Russia, not go back to business as usual, or else Putin will move on to absorbing the three NATO members (Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania) into the Russian Federation. If Putin tries because the World kept right on trading with Russia after he murdered the government of Ukraine, NATO will have to re-read its charter: Article 5 The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all . . .

I do not want to work as hard as I would have to to lay out how Putin installs puppet regimes. This is just his latest attempt. And I agree with G. It will not hold.

Russia has warned neighboring Finland on Friday of "serious military and political" repercussions if the Scandanavian nation opts to join NATO following the invasion of Ukraine.
Russian foreign ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said during a weekly briefing that a Finnish addition to NATO could have "detrimental consequences."
Finnish prime minister Sanna Marin said on Thursday that the debate within Finland on NATO membership "will change" following the start of a war in Ukraine.
Both Marin and Finland's president Sauli Niinisto strongly condemned Russia's attack on Ukraine.
"Despite prior warnings, this morning has come as a shock for all of us and our deepest feelings are with Ukrainian people," Niinisto said.
Niinisto ruled out the possibility of Finland reacting to the events by immediately applying for NATO membership.
"(In Finland) we are now seeing quick comments for applying today and joining tomorrow. These sensitive reactions are understandable but cannot really work in the real world," he said.

More Republicans have a negative view of Joe Biden than of Vladimir Putin.
92% of Republicans had a negative view of Biden while 81% had a negative view of Putin.
Trump has repeatedly praised Putin and criticised Biden, on Thursday adapting a favorite golfing metaphor to claim the Russian leader was playing his counterpart “like a drum”.
In July 2018, at a summit in Helsinki, Trump and Putin conducted a meeting behind closed doors and with no close aides. What was discussed is not known.
Trump was impeached in 2020, for attempting to blackmail Ukraine, withholding military aid while requesting dirt on Biden. At trial in the Senate, only one Republican, Mitt Romney, voted to convict. The Utah senator also voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial, for inciting the insurrection at the US Capitol on 6 January 2021.

Putin urged Ukrainian soldiers to seize power from their civilian leaders — a democratically elected government Putin derided as “a gang of drug addicts and neo-Nazis who’ve holed up in Kyiv and taken the entire Ukrainian nation hostage.”
Putin’s dark rhetoric about a government led by a Jewish president, Volodymyr Zelensky, who was elected in a landslide in 2019, is plainly delusional, but it was echoed that night on the state television channels that give him a stranglehold over Russia’s airwaves.
In contrast to Putin telling crazy lies from a TV studio far from the fighting, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky was standing in an instantly recognizable location, outside the president’s office on Bankova Street in central Kyiv, flanked by his closest advisers. Zelensky spoke calmly into his phone.
“Good evening everyone. The leader of the party is here,” Zelensky said, showing Davyd Arakhamia, who leads the president’s political party, Servant of the People. “The head of the presidential office is here,” he said, of Andriy Yermak, an adviser who tried to fend off demands from Rudy Giuliani for Zelensky to open sham investigations into Joe Biden in 2019, as then-President Donald Trump withheld military aid to Ukraine.
After noting that his prime minister, Denys Shmyhal, and another adviser, Mykhailo Podolyak, were also there, Zelensky brought the phone back to himself and said, “The president is here.”
“We are all here. Our soldiers are here. The citizens of our country are here,” Zelensky said. “We are all here protecting our independence, our country, and it will continue to be this way. Glory to our defenders. Glory to our heroes. Glory to Ukraine.”
