Just keep those Russkies coming and to heck with your butchery in Ukraine. Thailand generally does what is good for thailand and stays out of stuff that is not their business. Should the USA and their allies have been banned during their attacks during the 17 year war in Afghanistan. Or Iraq? Or is that "different"? 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every war is different. i'm not going to defend U.S. foreign policy in those places (which I was against anyway). A completely different topic.

Some funny guy gave me a laugh so I guess I need to explain. Thailand acts in self interest. To give asylum to war criminal Putin would mean sanctions from all of the west as severe as the current sanctions on Russia. Does anyone really think Thailand would be that suicidal? Of course they wouldn't. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Western officials can come too. He's supposedly (believe it or not) coming because of the large Russian colony in Phuket. Thailand should be careful though -- look what Russia thinks it's OK to do in foreign places with lots of Russians. Obviously they don't want to even come close to risking getting secondary sanctions. Edited July 17, 2023 by Jingthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No amount of money would compensate than being cut off from western trade. Thailand is not on any kind of list, short or long, for Putin's escape plan.

Other than China, no other country in world wants anything to do with Russia, dose Thailand has an ulterior motive to red carpet a representative of a country who bombs and kills dozen of people on a daily bases and actually want to take their country from them? Myanmar's Tamadaw are one I can think off the top of my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putin is on record as wanting to erase the Ukrainian nation. the Ukrainian culture, the Ukrainian language (he doesn't even recognize that a separate Ukraine ever existed!) and one can understand from that all the Ukrainian (and Russian) people that it takes to make that happen. I'll agree nothing in human affairs is totally black and white but in some cases, it's close enough for jazz. Nobody is saying that Ukrainians are saints, but what they do or don't do in their own sovereign nation is their business.
