Not really about this but Putin and the Chinese leader have been picked up on a hotmike discussing organ transplats and immortality, fascinating..

I read that and thought it was satire at first!

Poland has shot down numerous drones in their airspace and a few airports shut.
Appeasement of Putin just emboldens him.

Surely this legitimises NATO, or at least western Europe (Trump obviously being Putin's poodle) providing a more effective air deterrence across Ukraine?

In effect, creating a no fly zone over everything east of the front lines could now be justified as self defence for Poland, and would also give the civilian population of Ukraine respite from endless attacks.

If every now and then something accidentally slipped over the front line and destroyed a Russian position on Ukrainian soil, well, like Putin will claim, mistakes happen.

And the 'strongman' lets yet another deadline pass.

Wonder what @SkyBlueDom26 thinks about the Putin drones penetrating Polish airspace ?
Surely time for NATO seek a no fly zone over Ukraine?

Intrigued to see how the man who says 'the war would never have started under my watch' tries to explain Russia escalating and attacking another country.

Poland have triggered Article 4 of the Nato treaty.

So much for the theory that Putin would be happy with Ukraine and was no danger to anywhere else

Poles are built different, they would wipe the floor with Russia

There isn’t any danger

Still probably preferable that we don't get to the point where we have to find out if that is true.

If Russia went in with everything it had Poland would need NATO’s help. As Ukraine does currently

Poland would take Russia on

Pre 2022 yes definitely, but if Russia tried to invade Poland now (whilst still in Ukraine) they'd get kicked out pretty quickly I think.

They couldn't do both at the same time. They would end up losing on both fronts.

I assume it’s because they’re expecting a deal with Ukraine soon so they’re testing the waters with some war mongering next door.

Yeah, with NATO
