This is a woman way out of her depth, and it shows.
Putin and Lavrov must be finding it really hard to keep a straight face. I’m in Moscow and she is being ridiculed in the media and to be fair they do have a point.
Johnson’s government simply has zero credibility internationally.
Personally, I say just send the fucking troops in. We were willing to die over the Middle East to install political structures the local people didn’t even want. Yet here we have a nation of people desperate to modernise and join the west… The best we can offer are stern words?
Only thing that’s gonna check a dictator like Putin is a strong hand.
Having this clown visit them for photo opportunities is an embarrassment.
I am absolutly no fan of Truss but we could have sent someone dressed as a clown with a party whistle and told them the same message. The military stuff is all a sideshow if Russia invades Ukraine it and all overseas Russian banks will be disconnected from SWIFT. Also all of Putins and his chums mates’s overseas assets will be frozen – Invade and the party is over for them for good. Putin must realise he has overplayed his hand and must be worried if certain oligarchs have put a contract on him. I predict Putin will be assinated by a Russian within the next few months. If you mess with very rich peoples wealth it is dangerous, if you mess with lots of very rich peoples wealth it is more than likely fatal. Xi is going down exactly the same path and has already had one assination attempt on his life.
Steady on Liz, your party will have to ensure that the Russian donation money keeps coming through.
