Thank fuck some leaders aren't going down the "appease the dictator" route. The west has tried for decades to appease Russia, but it doesn't work. Dictators only see our appeasement efforts as weakness.
We tried for so long to welcome them with open arms. We traded with them, we built gas pipelines, we gradually disarmed over the 90s/2000s/2010s. We thought that by opening up to them that our "western values" – vague as that phrase may be – would spread... but we got nowhere. Only taken advantage of. There's no better political figure that embodies this than Merkel, but she was far from being alone in that naïve thinking.
The only way for lasting peace is for a pan-Europan defence committment. Peacekeepers stationed there is a good part of that.
Trump has made clear the US can't always be relied upon, so working closely with EU nations is a good move.

Thank god they dont appease MBS or Netanyahu!

-

pushing Nato membership for Ukraine has been a key driver of this conflict and has increased the threat of nuclear war
Nice to see the star reposting .ml/lemmygrad rhetoric. I'm amazed the interviewees didn't claim that the invasion was inevitable and actually fine because yhere are neo Nazis in Ukraine.

pushing Nato membership for Ukraine has been a key driver of this conflict and has increased the threat of nuclear war.
What absolute fucking nonsense is this?
Ukraine were not going to get NATO membership, because that was what was agreed. Literally the reason it's become a viable option is due to Russia invading Ukraine. THAT is the driver. It's been shown that Russia will invade Ukraine regardless of NATO membership, because they've already done it.
Russia can fuck off along with all the American Nazi's.

It's because that's the narrative the Moscow puts out. And tankies eat it up, and regurgitate it verbatim without a second thought.
-
Completely agree.
I think it's important to make sure we point out the absolute bullshit narrative whenever this stuff is posted.

I don't feel safe in this world no more. I don't want to die in a nuclear war.

That's a great one, although I was quoting from this Kinks song:
-
Russia is not going to stop at Ukraine.
-
-
Well US is negotiating on behalf of Russia, it would be nice if Europe stepped on behalf of Ukraine like
This whole Ukraine situation really makes the "free world" looks like limp dick cucks that scared of their own shadows.
-
Capitulation to aggressors does not work.
Of course this is posted by someone saying to not vote during the 2024 presidential election.
-
British troops in Ukraine would absolutely be unacceptable to any peace agreement that Russia is likely to sign so whats the point of making all this noise.
-
That's exactly why he said it, same reason Boris went over and told him not to negotiate peace.
-
To create pressure for a deal to be signed.
-
The bully that starts the war doesn't need to be appeased to stop the war. They need to be defeated.
History tells this is the only way. Appeasement just drags the way out until the bully bullies again.

Yes i also did gcse history and learnt about Chamberlain
Perhaps we could avoid war instead by making Russia a geopolitical ally rather than continually making them an enemy? Its not like we have any trouble making strategic alliances with other disreputable states.
No this chat by starmer is sabre rattling stupidity , what i dont fully understand is why they do it. The USA will be taking all the spoils from this war.
