Once again Nothing for Thailand to be proud of ............

There are many developing countries not on the list. 

 

 

This actually has nothing to do with Thailand.

Thanks Vlad for recognising the sovereign nation status of Taiwan.

 

Someone is not happy about that news though....

 

The two deserve each other.

Two sides to ever story and perhaps a silver lining for Thailand. At least there may not be a large bomb dropped around here.

[Raphael54]

Shame, shame, shame on those countries that are NOT on Putin's list of "unfriendly countries". 
They are friendly with a lying, thieving and murdering gangster.   
They are on the wrong side of history and they will find that out. 
The spineless clowns who call themselves the government of Thailand will have to come with some serious acrobatics to wiggle themselves out of it, in due course.

If the murderous dictator had any influence before, he does not now. Who cares what he thinks? Who cares what Russia thinks? If it were not for their oil, gas and nukes, they would be highly irrelevant on the world stage. 

 

What are their contributions to the world, since the 2nd half of the 20th century, anyway? Buckwheat? Vodka? What else?

I'm sure, Prayuth and Anutin will make it a big story, incl. pat on the shoulder, but that Thailand is not on the list, is not because it is regarded as Russia-friendly, but because it's, simply, unimportant to Russia and Putin.

I'm sure they don't give a ##@# about Russia and the Ukraine. What's it got to do with Thailand? The US led propaganda is clouding people's vision. 

The US wanted and instigated this war because of their dollar, as World reserve currency, being attacked by Russia and china. 

Same as when Gaddafi and Hussain wanted to sell their oil in local currency. 

Where were the US 2 years ago in the Azerbaijan Armenia war 2 years ago? CHINA/TIBET invasion? Its obvious one slimy black liquid is behind this. Who is the real bully?

Azerbaijan produces crude oil.

 

China took control of Tibet in 1951, when it, China, was still allied with the USSR, which, of course, had nuclear weapons.

"Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Reuters Moscow would halt operations if Ukraine ceased fighting, amended its constitution to declare neutrality, and recognised Russia's annexation of Crimea and the independence of regions held by Russian-backed separatists."

 

Room for manoeuvre?

You mean by giving Putin what he wanted? Three areas that are part of Ukraine, a declaration of neutrality which means Russia has the opportunity to install its government of choice over a period of time and Ukraine stops fighting which allows the Russians plenty of opportunity to keep rolling.

 

No, Russia sought to use military might to achieve its aims. it must fail, totally. Anything else and it’s an invitation to do it again. Having now mobilized economically, the West should see it through to the end or risk having to do a similar exercise again, which will be even more painful than resolving the issue once and for all now.

Many see this as for economic reasons.

 

China and India was also not on the list issued via TASS yesterday, reported Daily News.

 

But in Asia Japan, Singapore, Taiwan and South Korea were included. 

 

Talk about stating the obvious.

 

BRICS = Brazil + Russia + India + China + South Africa

 

China = ASEAN's largest trading partner

 

India = ASEAN dialogue partner

 

Thailand = Major voice in ASEAN

How ironic to hear some Westerners criticise Thailand role in this European conflict. 

 

Thailand has no horse in this race! 

 

I can't believe some are criticising Putin when G. Bush/T. Blair did much worse, and now Biden. 

 

https://www.algora.com/Algora_blog/2022/02/16/the-reason-the-us-wants-war-in-ukraine-is-ultimately-all-about-the-dollar

Oh dear. You really should reflect on what you post as links in support of your position.

 

The first couple of sentences of the linked article gave off a discernible whiff of nonsense and conspiracy theory regarding a fading dollar globalization driven war and then about 3 paragraphs in (I struggled on that far) I came across this gem of foresight from 3 weeks ago…

 

“For months now we’ve been hearing Washington ring alarm bells regarding what they have cited as an “imminent Russian invasion of Ukraine.” According to the latest so-called US “intelligence,” a full-scale invasion would take place this week. Yet, as some of us have for months insisted would be the case, no invasion has transpired, nor, I believe, is one likely.”

 

The closing summary is equally epic :

 

“Washington will continue to do anything required to continue the dollar’s supremacy, including using Ukraine and the Ukrainian people as cannon fodder in its efforts to provoke Russia and force dollar hegemony on her. Washington wants to further isolate Russia from the West by painting her as a violent aggressor. I am confident Vladimir Putin will not be lured in.”

 

Good grief, what a load of drivel !

If there was a list of unfriendly nations wouldn’t Russia be be right at the top?

Declaration of neutrality is not such a stretch as it is unlikely they will become NATO members anytime soon.

The other requirements suggest putting it to a vote or something similar for the Ukranian people to try to stop the fighting.

The fact that these options are on the table probably means Russia realise that they made a bad decision.

 

A compromise or similar would be a better solution than even more deaths and potential escalation of the current crisis?

Not sure but I think NATO stands for North Atlantic Treaty Organisation. Think Think Thailand is in the Southern Hemisphere.

Before I went to sleep, my wife said to me: This Russia is such a bad country, If Ukraine wants to join Nato, it is their business and freedom, Russia has no right to intervene, this is just an excuse for Russia to invade Ukarine.

So I said nothing, I just went to the kitchen and took a knife to bedside, then I said: Let’s go to sleep.

My wife looked at me with her wide eyes: What the heck are you doing, sleeping with a knife?!?!

I said: No worry, let’s go to sleep. Beside, sleeping with a knife is none of your business and it is my freedom.

My wife said: How can I sleep when you are sleeping with a knife? What if you accidentally cut me?

I said: Well, You don’t even trust your own husband, how can you expect Russia to trust Ukraine? Me sleeping with a knife is like Ukraine joining the Nato.

Bully boy tactics can never be condoned, but your right, the US set the bar on bullying and if Putin is taken to court it should be behind a multitude of western leaders.

At least 20 Thais applied to fight for the Ukraine. How many out of those "unfriendly" countries did?

[nycjoe]

If that many people don’t like you it goes beyond bad breathe. And body odor. 

[Bwazi]

There seems to be a status symbol of the countries on the list.

Most of those countries are choice countries with high level of good governance.

Taiwan is on the list and it is an extremely friendly COUNTRY. Putin says he used to be a taxi driver. That was his true calling. He should have remained in the profession. Russia's leader with nuclear codes is a former taxi driver.
