No More Russians in to Europe - Ukraine - Russian War

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 1.55pm post the following, " The Financial Times is reporting that the EU is set to suspend its visa travel agreement with Russia this week......The plan to freeze the 2007 deal will make it harder and more expensive for Russians to get Schengen-area documents, the FT reports.  "

Lets Get Real:

The EU should have done this at the START, the Russian people must be forced on to the streets, with sanctions like this and economic sanctions, thousands have been arrested over the WAR in the Ukraine, the Russian people as a whole must be gotten on to the streets, they did this in 1917 at the end of Imperial Russia and in 1991 with the downfall of the USSR under Gorbachev, the Russian economy has recovered some since the sanctions, the Putin Government trying to developed its Asian contacts and in the Middle East, with China and Iran.   There can only be one ONE OUTCOME, Putin MUST LOSE AND BE SEEN TO LOSE, otherwise we face WW3 down the road, this is our late 1930s moment, failure cannot be allowed to happen, the Ukraine must be supported at ALL COSTS.  Even if this means that we have a " War Economy ", the Government should consider paying the extra 100 billion pounds to cover the costs of energy to the UK population.   This is OUR MOMENT to show the courage of our grandfathers and great grandfathers. 

US Warships travel through Taiwan Strait - Biden Era

BBC News: Reports " Washington says its two guided-missile cruisers - the USS Antietam and the USS Chancellorsville - are demonstrating freedom of navigation through international waters.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Biden Administration has shown restraint when it comes to China and its military moves around Taiwan after the visit by Speaker Pelosi.  This is the big stick to remind China that the US safeguards Taiwan and that China cannot do what it likes when it comes to Taiwan, that the US will protect an ally.  One would have thought that China would have waited, but with the invasion of the Ukraine by Russia, the Chinese Government might think this is its chance, with the Biden viewpoint stuck with the Ukraine, the on going talks with Iran over its nuclear ambitions and the threat from North Korea of a nuclear test.  If President Biden wants to do well in the Mid Terms, he needs to show that he is a strong man when it comes to international events, weakness gets you Jimmy Carter Mark 2.
