Foreign Minister Don Pramudwinai said today (Tuesday) that Thailand may need to fine-tune its policy on the Russian invasion of Ukraine, but it will not rush to condemn Russia, like many other countries have done, because it will not help to improve the situation.

 

Pointing out that condemnation is being heaped upon Russia, Don, who is also deputy prime minister, said that Thailand is monitoring the situation closely in Ukraine and may need to adjust its policy to be more tangible, while helping to in ease the situation, not just condemnation.

 

Some matters, he said, must be allowed to take their natural path, adding that the war in Ukraine involves many players with various vested interests.

"natural path"

interesting choice of words that I am sure reflect richly on him.

Natural path? Of illegal invasion and war started by Putin?  Unbelievable!  You are a total and utter idiot.  Damn you for condoning Putin's actions. Damn you.

Typical Don the dinosaur

"The hottest places in Hell are reserved for those, who in times of moral crisis, remain neutral"

 

That guy ought to load up on SPF666.

TAT could synch with the Foreign Ministry and integrate the those two words into the literature supporting its post-covid renewal:

 

" Come to the holiday destination that really doesn't give a **** about the Putin directed death and destruction raining down upon the heads of the Ukrainian people. Let us help you take the natural path to forgetfullness.......just like we have!"

Honestly it would have been much better to say nothing at all.

It's how the regime is.

 

I'd like the world to know "what they're like".

 

I'd like to see the statement broadcast around the world.......a translation sent to every European household.

 

 

 

Just a word salad from someone seemingly out of their depth and devoid of any moral fibre.

Don't tell the Ukranian heroes. If they survive it may put them off pad Thai for life.

The Middle Path, is what he actually said, I suspect.

 

No one expects FM Don to have a backbone.

 

 

Well Russians relying on ATMs are in trouble with the current exchange rate if they can buy baht.

Mastercard and Visa blocked russian ATM-cards today.So they cant take out any money.

It's been quite a fortnight for the Government. Failing to take any steps to sanction the military junta in Myanmar at the ASEAN meeting. Cosying up to the Saudi regime and now failing to speak out against Putin waging unprovoked war on his peaceful neighbour.

One day the splinters in the collective backside of this present government will come back to haunt them. If you sup with the devil use a long spoon.  

Just like the Cyndi Lauper song.

Thailand is showing its ‘ True Colours’

So the "natural path" is to kill 6 yrs old kids  you should be ashamed

Poor Vladimir is in a world of trouble. He will either put a bullet in his head or someone close to him will.

Bitcoin is being widely used in Russia – 40% of the participants view cryptos like Bitcoin as a good long-term investment. People already can pay with Bitcoin for some hotels and restaurants and also cars and furniture, meaning it is being used as a payment medium.

Yes, if 'cyber-jocks' are going to be immoral, best to go all the way.

 

A single btc transaction uses more energy than a typical US home uses in 24 days. Hey, but day trading geniuses can waste energy to be 'cool'.

 

Now oligarchs are using btc, and the exchanges---rather than do what moral nations and institutions are doing worldwide---are rationalizing allowing it 'because that's what cryptos are for'.

 

Self-serving, immoral rationalization is rather unbecoming.

 

btc users obviously have nothing to fear from Greta Thornberg, but one wonders if aggrieved Ukrainians might take occasional vengeance on btc boasters at some future date. One can hope, of course (intentionally ambiguous).
