If he is mad enough to give the order to fire first, do you think the two people holding the keys would actually turn them?

Some will. Some people are so brainwashed that they’ll believe this is the right thing to do, likewise some won’t but honestly, we have no way of knowing which is which here and I wouldn’t like to rely on them.

I’m guessing talks aren’t going to Putins liking.

The guy Tom Nichols, generally one of the less hypocritical of the never Trumper Republicans, is excellent on the processes involved in launching Nuclear codes.  His Twitter feed is a good follow these days.

Was this not done yesterday? Or is this another ratcheting up of the rhetoric?

Nothing has changed from yesterday.

Ukrainian delegate saying Russia are not a legit member of the UN. Straight in two-footed.

The fact we're even seriously discussing this is worrying enough in itself.

The Russian requests in these 'peace' talks are fairly obviously a way to try spin things against Ukraine when they inevitably say no to the requests.

Going by reports the requests are to recognise the two 'republics' that russia now occupies, Demilitarize Ukraine, and guarantee of neutrality.

Ukraine Ambassador at this UN emergency meeting just delivered an outstanding speech, questioning the legitimacy of Russia's membership within the UN. Russian Ambassador now up claiming the media is in fake news drive and none of what we're seeing is actually happening.

YouTuber bald and bankrupt has made a couple of videos from Kyiv, one of him travelling around to the border and another of him leaving.

I know some people don't like him and say that he has a shady background as a pick up artist but thought they were interesting.
