Either a bluff or if it goes tits up Belarus will be targeted first in Retalitary strike . That is of course if there stopped on route to Belarus by special forces. The west will be closely monitering traffic from Russia. I have a feeling this would be a red line for the Americans, and they would have made that clear to Putin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is war, it's not' oh you can't do that ' and we can't do this ..... it's murder and the Russians will murder babies and anyone .... Russia has committed so many war crimes it would fill a warehouse with evidence and documents. They' being Russia don't care one bit about war crimes because they know it will take years to compile, process, arrest and so on .... Russia crossed the red line with raping women & children, shooting old folk in the head, killing kids, sorry .... it's past Ukraine being correct and being mr nice guy, I say blow every hospital, school, office and whatever else they can, kill every last one of them. so maybe we agree to disagree ... lol So you think the Ukrainians should just go out and commit multiple war crimes, (murdering innocent civilians, sick people and schoolchildren) simply because the Russians do it? Yes, I'm definitely going to disagree with you on that one. 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumbing down seems to be the trend in the whole western world. Just look at the rise of the (extreme) right, if not outright fascism, in the USA and Europe.

To be frank, the "threat" to the NPP by the dam is minimal to not say inexistent. a lot of things in this conflict are spinned out of proportion. there are several reasons for this: 1- the NPP's cooling water reserve pool is full and normally doesn't deplete rapidly on its own 2- if the water pool was to deplete, there are canalisations and pumps to pump water from a deep spot in the Dniepr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
