Looks like it’s full scale war?

Considering how it looks, should PM Khan cut short the visit and head home? What is the protocol when a neutral party’s leader is visiting a country when war starts between the host and another nation?

 

Don't be a sheikhjeet, bro.

My cousin who is half Ukrainian says that ruski ground forces will get fukt. Initial attack favors ruskis, but assyemtric warfare will screw them. It could very well be a blunder for Putin.

He says that his friends fighting are welcoming the Russians and saying we are waiting for kebab. Meanwhile men and teenagers are literally being abducted by Russian forces in donetsk and luhansk to go fight.

:lol:
 
Not capability.

Can does not mean Will.

I thought Russia will limit the operations to East and South where there are more Russians.

No definitely not, remember on the map where the Russians posted their forces from Belarus north of Ukraine and close to Kiev as well as position to Eastern Ukraine and Southern Ukraine with amphibious forces, this was full scale invasion. Many on twitter says its not, but others say it was. Some say they just want the separatists regions or this was a bluff, but this was way too much for that.


80% of Russia's forces around Ukraine in attack positions, U.S. official says​


WASHINGTON, Feb 23 (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin has put 80% of the troops he has assembled in a position to launch a full-scale invasion on Ukraine, a senior U.S. defense official said on Wednesday.

"He is as ready as he can be," the official told reporters, speaking on condition of anonymity.

The remarks added to a sense of imminence of a possible Russian military onslaught, challenging any notion that Washington expected Putin to stop after recognizing the independence of two Moscow-backed rebel regions this week.


"They have advanced their readiness to a point where they are literally ready to go - now - if they get the order," the official said, without providing evidence to support the assertion.

Biden says U.S., allies will respond to 'unjustified' attack by Russia on Ukraine​

  • Feb 23, 2022 Updated 6 min ago
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States and its allies will respond in a united and decisive way to "an unprovoked and unjustified attack by Russian military forces" on Ukraine, U.S. President Joe Biden said after blasts were heard in the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv.

"President (Vladimir) Putin has chosen a premeditated war that will bring a catastrophic loss of life and human suffering," Biden said in a statement.

"Russia alone is responsible for the death and destruction this attack will bring. The world will hold Russia accountable."

Biden said he would announce on Thursday further consequences to be imposed on Russia by the United States and its allies.

You had a Ukrainian cousin this whole time? 😮

There probably is truth to what he's saying. Ukraine can probably fight back but not much to counter ballistic missiles and cross border shelling. It sound like Russia want to occupy all of Ukraine, though. We'll see.

If this ends up as blunder for Russia then I will sponsor a Russian refugee. :lol:

Yes. I thought the troops in Belarus were for contingency should things in East and South did not work out.
