The British Council building in Kyiv was hit in a Russian drone and missile attack overnight. The strikes, which also significantly damaged the EU mission in the Ukrainian capital, killed at least 14 people, including three children. European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen called it a “grim reminder” that the Kremlin will “stop at nothing”.

@kibcol1049 also isn't an attack on an embassy or diplomatic mission considered an "Act of War"?

  • Cuz certainly attacks on Ambassadors got treated that way...

@kkarhan @kibcol1049

only when looking for grounds for war

@Thebratdragon @kibcol1049 OFC but then again the unwillingness of following through on commitments [#USA & #UK enshuring #BootsOnTheGround in #Ukraine) as of #BudapestMemorandum is seen as a sign of #weakness and act of #cowardice by the #Agressor (that is #Russia).

@kibcol1049 @Thebratdragon I mean, look it up yourself and tell me that the #LackOfConsequences of the 2 of 3 guarantors regarding the #CrimeOfAggression by #Russia against #Ukraine is anything but a failure to follow through on their part?

  • Mind you that the whole #UkraineWar can only result in 3 scenarios:

1. #Trump aka. #AgentKrasnov follows his handler (#Putin) and systematically & successfully cuts off Ukraine, letting the #CorrosionStrategy bloom, turning Ukraine from "geography" to "history"...

2. Ukraine manages to succeed in spite of widthdrawn support (unlikely but not impossible!) and will cancel the #NPT due to Russia's repeated violations, resulting in it starting it's own #NuclearArms - Program as deterrence.

3. The #EU grows a spine and supports Ukraine in reaching the #StatusQuoAnteBellum (1994-2011) and will ascend it into full membership of the EU and it's members will also push for Ukraine to become #NATO member.

I sincerely hope for #3 even if that means it'll necessitate a "#REFORUSA"-Maneuver to get rid of the #OrangeTyrant and enshure he and his cronies get Nuremberg'd!

@kkarhan @kibcol1049 I want a 3, as a 2 leaves a dangerous country that can barely trust the countroes surrounding it.
