reports of hypersonic missiles ..


Helicopters moved by trucks towing them .. perhaps short of fuel? damaged and moving back to repair base? short tow to a better location? fearful of manpads?

Wanting to be secure from being forced back under the Thump of Russia dominance is a key reason why countries and their people elect to join NATO.

To better understand why countries want to join NATO and not be under a new Soviet / Russian neo-empire / new-Warsaw Pact we really need to examine the information that comes from those nations and people who have joined or have asked to join NATO.

Too often the USA thinks of things as a black or white / polar set of sides .. ( USA vs communism, Democrat vs Republican, Godly vs Godless, .. )

It's fair to ask if we should or should not have encouraged Ukraine to join NATO .. yet, I doubt any of us wants to live under the system that is now Russia. It is clear that many Ukrainians do not want to live under the Russia thumb as is demonstrated by the Ukrainians standing up to the Russian invaders in protest.

Russian's actions in Ukraine represent an uprecidented challenge to

Ukraine's
1) Sovereignty
2) Territorial Integrity
3) Independence

This is a big issue, as once we accept that changing border is OK - we're opening up for more conflicts of territorial expansion. This reduces the stability of the world significantly.

Prof James Ker-Lindsay

On 21 February 2022, Russia President Vladimir Putin announced that he had recognised the independence of the breakaway territories of Luhansk and Donetsk in eastern Ukraine. Just days later, he order Russian troops to invade Ukraine as a whole. Obviously, events are unfolding fast. However, there are a number of questions about what the invasion means in the short, medium and longer term. This video attempts to give some initial thoughts on the war in Ukraine and some of the key issues to consider on the days, weeks and months ahead.

Hello and welcome! My name is James Ker-Lindsay. Here I take an informed look at International Relations with a focus on territorial conflicts, secession, independence movements and new countries.

Report from Today - claims Ukranians have wiped an entire unit out apart from 1 man - 2,000 soldiers (!) and 200 vehicles along with a 6th General. Also pushed the Russians back 70km as a result.

Only time will confirm:
