Chernobyl has been taken by Russian forces. A chilling thought given the sensitive nature of the site and what it contains.

I think thus far Putin has been a man of his word, given the relatively low civilian casualties and only attacking military/strategic objectives, he doesn't want to destroy Ukraine, just the Nazi's ie the military and government and whoever is on their kill list

Top points to the guy earlier in this thread who said Biden would be late

I thank you.

suspending trading of their companies shares on LSE might have been useful

In total, 31 Russian companies are listed on the LSE, with a combined market value of £468bn, according to the data company S&P Global.
The companies are not only a crucial part of the Russian economy, they also directly fund a large part of the Russian state. London-listed Russian oil, gas and mining companies paid their government £39bn in taxes in 2020, according to a Guardian analysis of payments to government disclosures. That revenue is hugely important to the Putin regime: Russia spent £41.7bn on its military in 2019, 11.4% of government spending, according to the World Bank’s latest figures.

Worrying that China will not condemn the invasion, no doubt Putin got that assurance before the tanks rolled in?

I thought the Germans normally liked having a pop at the Russians?

They changed their mind after Stalingrad.

Even more reason why Russia needs to lose this war. It will send a very strong message.

Didn’t they meet recently? He’s also exposed the border with China, so there’s definitely an understanding.

We can only hope.

When the disaster happened in 1986, a lot of that radiation got dumped over Belarus. Don't think Lukashenko would be happy if his buddy Putin went down that route.

Why is Biden never on time? Weird.

Takes a while to wind him up enough

He's older than my dad, and my dad struggles to wake up from his nap too.
