That is genuinely quite amazing that liz truss is telling civilians to go to Ukraine to fight when the uk have categorically ruled out actual military support. 

staggering, really. 

It's far from amazing if you have followed Truss's political career.  Possibly only Nadine Dorries can outbid her in the intellectual dwarf stakes.  She shouldn't be put in charge of a whelk stall.

Putin orders Russia's nuclear deterrence forces on high alert

Russian president Vladimir Putin has ordered military command to put nuclear deterrence forces on high alert after aggressive statements by Nato countries, Reuters reports.

 

This is mental. The guy's a crackpot.

The peace talks are apparently genuine, going to be on the border between Ukraine and Belarus. Although not sure Ukrainian confirmation just yet. Turkey, Poland and Azerbaijan have also offered to host talks.

No preconditions for these talks.

Part of you hopes the nuclear talk is just a tool from Putin to sway negotiations his way, rather than him having any actual desire to use them, but who fucking knows at this point.

Have seen talk of Russian general telling the armies to take Kyiv "regardless of human cost".

All of me hopes he is just bluffing about using nuclear weapons.

Thing is. Is he mad enough to use them on Ukraine and see if NATO have the bollocks to reply in kind? He may be calculating that NATO will shit a brick when he uses them.( which they will, of course).

Ukraine position it's not anywhere near Belarus for obvious reasons 

Rt is reporting that there delegation is in Belarus but they played that "we are wanting peace talks" card  on Friday and will now say that it's Ukraine that is the aggressor's in all of this or get some friendly types from Donbass that will agree to everything that Putin wants and declare themselves the winners.

Still nothing about Ukraine attending the talks in Belarus  on any other news channels apart  from  Rt and it would be pretty massive breaking news

And just as I typed this it hopefully looks like the talks are on thankfully
