he's right, if u follow the news closely ur gonna get stressed out unecessarily, because that's what news does.
You can’t avoid it completely it’s rammed down your throats all day everyday.How can you not really follow something and then go on to say it's a whole load of noise about nothing? What are you basing that on? The UK and US would love that level of intelligence.
Of course, some of the media have been sensationalist, but as far as I'm aware, the situation isn't over and we can see from satellite imagery that it wasn't just nothing.
Well it all depends if Putin invades or not.

But it like deja vu I swear we had this same ‘crisis’ a few years ago. Russian army amassed on Ukrainian border preparing to invade imminently. Yawn.
Like I say this us a one shot do.1) He made UK and US declare that they will not protect Ukraine, therefore tearing up Budapest Memorandum.
2) He tanked Ukranian economy due to capital drain.
3) Solidified position at home that west officials are clowns and propaganda (as long as he does not attack)
4) Caused rift in trust between Ukraine and US, UK. They are ignoring our warnings.
5) If he pulls back and does not attack - that would only be seen as a benefit not a loss at home. Russians do not think the war will happen, he does not need to attack to not look weak.
6) Further rift in German vs US pipeline. Scholz refused to even commit to cancelling pipeline themselves if Russia invades.
7) All western instructors have left Ukraine in fear of invasion. No training etc is happening.
8) Even people in the west are doubting our media and officials regarding this
Do you know Russia did it?Apparently Ddos attacks are happening in Ukraine on banks and defence targets, not the hand of friendship.
Do you have other likely candidates.Do you know Russia did it?
The United States has not seen evidence yet of any Russian troop pullback near Ukraine, Washington’s ambassador to the United Nations said.
In a statement provided by her spokesperson, US Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield said:
It would be welcome news if it is legitimate. We have not seen evidence of that yet.
There has been more stuff turning up today. Russia are talking rubbish againOnly yesterday was there a report of more turning up dont know what to believe anymore.
Of course they are behind most cyber attacks.Do you know Russia did it?
Like I say this us a one shot do.
Ukraine still prefer the west to the ****show that is Putins Russia.
Maybe Scholtz will lean eastwards there is a lot of old world commie solidarity in Germany.
I still think that there will be a boost in energy security thinking elsewhere
Anti Boris and Biden sentiments always exist so he has not really amplified them in the free press. At home maybe where he has more control.
What has been amplified is that Russia is not to be trusted and a stronger cold war relationship beckons.

He is not the genius people make him out to be he thinks that china has his back they are just taking advantage of billy no mates Russia and are getting cheap gas and oil out of it.You do realize that this is Putin's playbook right? He is slowly attempting to destabilize us from all fronts. I think Putin in a nut-shell is when I heard a translation of a thing he said in Russian - which was about a chicken picking food only one grain at the time. This guy takes his time, picking a small grain at the time.
Ultimately as a typical Dictator, his home support is key. I see he scored some major points during this whole mess. As long as he does not attack.
Once again, if Putin attacks, he is an absolute moron.
Ukraine need them patriot missile systems.
Well according to Ubersonic, they have upgraded their BUKs to BUK3M and S-300 to S-400 levels. If that's the case, those are comparable if not better than Patriots (S-400 specifically).
They also outnumber Russia in tanks and their quality as well (According to Ubersonic).
