Are you 100% confident he's wearing that out of choice and not been coerced/forced into it?

The huge arrogant smug look on his puss in that photo should answer your question fairly conclusively.

The problem is that our media are now championing this cause and giving increasing coverage to "Sandra on facebook" and "Jeremy on twitter" which is extremely dangerous when you have a populist Government.

Yes, it's far from ideal and I obviously understand the plight of the Ukraninans, however under NO circumstances can we implement a "no fly zone" unless we seriously want to be starting World War 3 and this needs drummed into folks thick heads !!!

Hope this little facist c**t got taken round the back by the Ukrainian gold medallist and got his little facist face well and truly panned in.

Russian gymnast wears pro invasion symbol while competing - Daily Star

He looks young and able bodied enough to go and fight if it means that much to him. 

I'd like to see wee handstand guy vs Usyk.

It's an absolute guarantee that Blue Lives Matter/MAGA/Canadian trucker types are going to be all over that Z symbol in addition to their red baseball caps.

Any excuse to relive this

I saw someone make that point about the black t-shirt video with all the shaven headed guys in it. Why are they not in Ukraine, they all look able bodied? Same with the police who are beating up old women for protesting.

When you consider the size of Ukraine and all the hinterland that needs to be conquered, this is an eye-opener. Throwing ordnance around outside the areas you control is one thing, establishing a continuing presence there is another....
 
I'm not sure I agree. The Institute of War map devoted Russian "controlled" areas, not gains. It's fair to say that Russia controls those parts of the country. Ukraine can't get things in or out of there. They can't arm or fuel the civilians there and they can't get produce out.

This phase of the war is about destroying Ukrainian state capacity. The fact that there aren't Russian troops standing in fields is a minor matter at the moment; they won't be planting crops this spring.

As much as everyone's been on about how slow the Russian advance has been things aren't looking good for Ukraine. If they lose Odessa it's game over for Ukraine as we knew it.

Of course the Pie & Bovril moral compass gimps aren't against triggering the event which would lead to nuclear armageddon - something that would obviously really help the Ukrainians. Thankfully, the NATO leadership are giving their repeated calls for this the massive wide berth it deserves, despite now outright guilt-tripping over it. Clearly, though, that must mean they're against providing any sort of support which would actually help Ukraine...

The thing I've found the most bizarre with this war is how the 'Murican right wing nutters that have spent the past 50 years being paranoid about Russia and anything even slightly connected are now in awe of Putin and actually supporting some of the actions because strongman is strong or something. Did Trump really fry their brains that bad, is this a common thing amongst the Republicans or is it perhaps more fringe group stuff that gets unweighted traction on social media?

I'm sure this means something in your head.

Rather than going after the Baltics, which doesn't seem worth it yet strategically and comes with the risk of NATO raining destruction upon St Petersburg, surely the Russians' next target would be Moldova, a soft touch with troops already there and in touching distance of the Bessarabian gap?

Maybe then they could think about the Suwalki gap and the Baltics.

Russias terms, according to Peshkov

- Recognition of Crimea as Russian

- Recognition of LPR and DPR as independent states

- Constitutional neutrality for Ukraine.

Obviously they decided to do without deNazification and demilitarisation m, happy to have drug addicts and neo-Nazis in charge in Kyiv.

Ukrainian side have said that they are open to discussions on neutrality. There isn’t anything that will change Crimeas status now.

The foreign ministers of Russia and Ukraine are going to meet in Turkey in three days for talks.

A full Russian invasion of Moldova would surely bring them into a direct war with Romania?
