Russia warns of ‘unpredictable consequences’ if US sends Patriot missiles to Ukraine

[Scott]

 

Russia hit back at reports that the U.S. is poised to send the Patriot air defense system to Ukraine, calling it a “provocative” move that “can lead to unpredictable consequences.”

 

The U.S. has not yet announced the decision to send the advanced systems, which could help Ukraine fend off a barrage of Russian missile strikes, but multiple reports indicated such an announcement could come this week.

 

 

“If this is confirmed, we will witness yet another provocative step by the administration, which can lead to unpredictable consequences,” the Russian Embassy in Washington said in a statement.

I don't understand how a defensive missile system can be construed to be provocative. The "unpredictable consequences" are a given.

Shows the desperation of the NATO (Axis) forces. There is no doubt that Russia will win this war. 

[Scouse123]

Yeah,

 

USA stop giving Ukraine the means to defend itself against an illegal war, attacks on civilians, and the Ukraine's infrastructure, by a madman intent on reviving the bygone era of the Soviet Union..

They are indeed desperate to prevent Russian war crimes. Bombing civilian infrastructure is a war crime. Your characterisation of NATO as a Nazi regime is very poor form.

 

Given that The UN have declared Russia as a war criminal and that the US and the EU have determined that they fully support Ukraine it will be incredibly difficult for Russia to win this war.

And you think this is a ' just ' and ' fair ' war?

 

An unprovoked attack on a neighboring country to please the whims of an autocratic dictator?

 

It is Russia acting in desperation carrying out attacks on, and murdering innocent civilians and then destroying the country's water and electricity supply.

Shows the desperation and how ill-informed you are.  There is no doubt Ukraine will win this war.

We'll have to wait and see. I look forward to your admission that you got in wrong. Just like I will give you mine.

[IAMHERE]

I believe the Russians; so far the entire conflict has been unpredicted. This time last year the Russia was just on 'training maneuvers'. How predictable was that whole invasion?

LOL. Since when has defending your skies from illegal attacks on civilian infrastructure been provocative. Another rule change from the terrorists.

So enlighten us.

 

Where are you getting your propaganda free news on the progress of this war?

I suppose you get all your information from the ' Free Press ' in Russia?????

 

That's where you probably get your well rounded comments and observations.

Seeing that neither side wants to talk the Patriot missile system seems like a good idea after all this is not a war but a invasion.

When they are not "your" skies and are thousands of miles away in a country we were repeatedly told (pre invasion) had a Nazi problem?

 

I'm guessing if the missile defence system was used in Colorado for eg, Russia would not consider it a provocation.

They are in Ukraine skies and they are being given to Ukraine to defend against the ongoing war crimes. Simple enough for you. I won't bother with the nazi rhetoric been through that already many times. You should instead check the “Task Force Rusich” a Russian neo nazi brigade currently in Ukraine

 

The official Telegram channel for “Task Force Rusich” – currently fighting in Ukraine on behalf of the Kremlin and linked to the notorious Wagner Group – last week requested members to forward details relating to border posts and military movements in the three Baltic states, which were formerly part of the Soviet Union.

You will never be able to understand the logic of the Orcs. Actually, there is no any.

Sorry Brian, but I have NEVER seen a proper explanation for the constant rhetoric coming from the "credible MSM" in the western world about the Ukraine's Nazi problem, which vanished as soon as the war started. There is a fascinating collage of dozens of legacy media headlines about the Ukraine's Nazi problem. Was there NOT a Nazi problem in the Ukraine and the big name media were running a false narrative, or it was true yet extremely inconvenient now we are being conditioned to support the Ukraine?

None so blind, start your own topic and I may just respond to it.

Thanks for the advice!

Ukraine already won. They were selected to have war with.

Last week i red in Yahoo news, the Russians were choosing between or war with Ukraine or JAPAN ! I dont know if that was a sort of fake news, but imagine! Has to do with some islands close to Japan.

The article stated, Russians wanted to start a war, so Ukraine was the lucky one.

Isnt it amazing always a little stupid group of dumb ashes start wars.

We call them leaders of the world, i remain with my statement.

It has never been different in our history.

Time for a new virus, as we are with too many people on this earth.

I believe Russia's Putin.

 

• I believed him when he said the little green men in Crimea weren't Russian Spetznatz.
• I believed him when he said they were only on training missions and wouldn't invade Ukraine.
• I believed him when his FSB guys said they were different people just visiting Salisbury UK to look at the spire.
• I believed him when he said his FSB guys didn't put Novichok in Navalny's underpants.
• I believed him when he said there were no war crimes against civilians in Bucha.
• I believed him post invasion when he said he had no desire to keep any Ukrainian territory.
• I believed him when he said more than 99% of Ukrainians in captured territory wanted to be Russians.

 

I wouldn't hesitate to put a bullet in his head if I had the opportunity.

This list should be, at least, 100 times longer. This former KGB officer is a lie machine.

Oh ge wizz Its easy to predict that a lot of russan munitions will be shot out of the sky plus any aircraft they are dumb enough to risk old puttie won’t be able to slaughter civilians as easily it will increase the cost to Russia and hopefully end this debacle sooner

Nobody truly wins a war anymore. Putin will be got rid of sometime next year as the war drags, more and more Russians die, and Russia's economy decays more and more. War has become pointless. When Tyrant Xi invades Taiwan, China's economy will be decimated in the long-term regardless of what happens in the war. He won't even get the microchips he wants. The world just has to wait until the 20th century tyrants such as Putin and Xi die off before peace is possible.

The "Nazi problem" as you call it was basically about the Azov regiment in Ukraine. There were no reports of the  widespread appeal of Nazism in Ukraine that I can recall. In fact, political parties favored by the neo-Nazis fared very poorly in the last elections.
