They thought Russia are afraid of their stupid red lines 😋
Hugh escalation to russia but russia invaded ukraine so Ukraine can do anything they want more Russian empty threats
Ukraine war reminds me of the Iraq invasion by US under false justification. At least Russia has a point in not allowing more NATO (US) bases on its borders.
How could people ever thought that Russia would allow NATO (US) to keep building bases on its borders and do nothing?Or that Ukraine could win a war against Russia? Not even with NATO support. In a hypothetical situation, would US allow China or Russia to build bases on its borders? Remember Cuban missiles crisis?
russia is the official father of usa and france.
Little dictator painted himself in a corner, threats are all he's got left. Nato would DESTROY the orc army and he knows it.
Rembrr, russia would be gone as well. Don't forget that.
UK also has Nuclear weapons. Let us see what happens next?
Zelensky should lift his Presidential decree which forbids negotiations and go to the negotiation table immediately! End this war – Peace!
NATO's expansion war in Ukraine…
Drills ? While at War ? Confusing 😅😅😂😅😅
Mouth war men,
Good thanks, i will watch the world i hate being on burning
russia is a threat thugs putin and peskov will lose because thugs lose thats the nature
Russia will likely break up into smaller nations in the not-too-distant future. Too many conquered peoples want their independence from Russia.
Let the Ukrainians not worry, Peskov said that this is not aimed at Ukraine
🇷🇺💪👏🔥
Article 51, right to self defence 😊
Pootin is so incompetent and delusional that he has weakened his conventional forces for his criminal war of conquest. He is forced to resort to nuclear threats because he has abused and misused his defensive forces to satisfy his greed for conquest.
The result of having nato lead to all this rubbish.disband nato and all military alliances everywhere and we will have peace 🤞
Yeahhhhhhhh. Let’s go
