By the same token neither will the US. So they will come to some "agreement". And that agreement will necessarily involve Russia reclaiming all former Soviet territories.
HTH.Hard Brexit now!

Poland, now that's a different story."I hope Celtic realise that, if their team is good enough, they will win. If they're not good enough, they'll not win - and they can't look at anybody else, whether it is referees or any other influence." - Walter Smith

Originally posted by snaw View PostPoland is in NATO. An attack on any NATO member is seen as an attack on all, and defensive measures are assured. That's the whole point. Don't think Russia is that crazy - either it's mutual self assured destruction, or a massive arse kicking.
Is that not what I said? We were talking about Ukraine."I hope Celtic realise that, if their team is good enough, they will win. If they're not good enough, they'll not win - and they can't look at anybody else, whether it is referees or any other influence." - Walter Smith
