In the last few weeks, I have become increasingly convinced that Kremlin has unfortunately made a decision to invade Ukraine later this winter. While it is still possible for Putin to deescalate, I believe the likelihood is now quite low. Allow me to explain why 🧵

This is the asinine conspiracy theory that we are going to station long range hypersonic missiles in the Ukraine.
Mind the fact we haven't even successfully fielded hypersonic missiles yet.
Correct, Vlad. The USSR, oops, I mean the Russian Federation, has a history of invadings its neighbors. The reason that you're not putin ballistic missiles in Mexico or Canada is that neither feels threatened by the US enough to ring you up and ask you to do so. It's a silly argument.will25u said:PUTIN: "We are not the ones that deploy missiles next to the U.S. borders.

Hey Vindman, good work you treasonous fat POS. Happy with what you helped allow? Never mind all the blatant corruption that the Biden family did while you sat by blissfully with your head in the sand and never made a peep. How dare someone call out that corruption. FCV

Quote:
Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan was cited on Tuesday as saying the prospect of a Russian invasion of Ukraine was not realistic and that he needed to discuss the crisis with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
. . .
"I don't view Russia's invasion of Ukraine as a realistic approach because Ukraine is not an ordinary country. Ukraine is a strong country," Erdogan told reporters on a trip to Albania on Monday, according to broadcaster NTV.
"For Russia to take that step, it would need to revise the situation in the whole world and its own," he said, adding the region could not accept a war anymore and that such a move will "not be right".
. . .
While forging cooperation with Russia on defence and energy, Ankara has also sold sophisticated drones to Ukraine, angering Moscow.
In November, Erdogan said Turkey was ready to be a mediator in the crisis, an offer that Kyiv welcomed but Moscow dismissed. Ankara has also said sanctions on Russia would not be a solution to the issue.

BREAKING: German Chancellor rejects Biden’s request for a discussion on Ukraine

I'm not sure how difficult it would be to pick up the phone, if that's what the invitation was for.Quote:
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz turned down an invite at short notice from U.S. President Joe Biden to discuss the Ukraine crisis, German magazine Der Spiegel said on Friday.
Scholz did not accept the invitation due to a full schedule, including a trip to Madrid, as well as the desire to show that he was present as Germany grapples with the COVID-19 pandemic, according to Der Spiegel.

That's a pretty funny snub if so.
Biden weighs deploying thousands of U.S. troops and other military assets to Eastern Europe and the Baltics.https://t.co/mPOzQUaOQQ
