Is the Ukraine the next MAJOR CRISIS for the Biden Administration ? - Cold War 2

BBC News: Reports " Russia has warned Nato against sending any troops to help Ukraine, amid reports of a large Russian military build-up on its borders. "

Lets Get Real:

Is this a challenge from Putin to Biden, will he go for broke early in the Biden Administration and invade Ukraine.  The reports of a large military build up of Russian forces on the Ukraine border should be a worry to NATO and to the East Countries in the NATO.  The Biden Oval faces a crisis over North Korea if it has another nuclear test, the worry is that North Korea and Russia could act together, NK with a open air nuclear test., while the Russians go for Kiev the capital of the Ukraine.  What would NATO do, defend Ukraine who is not a member of NATO, allow the Ukraine to be swallowed up, thus taking the conflict up to the NATO borders, Poland would be worried, and it can be postulated that the US and NATO would send arms to the Ukraine, this development should worry the WORLD. 

The END of the WORLD has finished, Pubs in Wales can OPEN - Post Covid 19

BBC News: Reports " Pubs and restaurants in Wales could reopen indoors in time for the Spring Bank Holiday at the end of May.  "

Lets Get Real:

We can stop being in our knees and praying, the Pubs will be open at the end of May in Wales.  The UK economy has to get up and running, at this rate it will take forever to pay off the national debt.   Retail shops, book shops need to open, the people have to get over the State telling us how to live.  The COVID - 19 tragedy has shown how a virus in Asia can bring the West to its knees.   In future if there is a another scare let's hope the West reacts in a faster manner and closes down international travel before the virus can create another tragic event.   On the whole this is good news. 

The US and COVID - 19 - Biden Era

Sky News: Reports " COVID-19: Biden sets target of 200 million vaccine doses in his first 100 days..."I believe we can do it," Mr Biden says, while admitting "I know it's ambitious, twice our original goal". "

Lets Get Real:

President Biden has learned to not to over promise then to achieve better than expected results.  It can be argued that Biden has done better with his COVID - 19 plans than Trump ever did.  The problem as shown by the press conference was that the White House reporters have moved on to other subjects, from illegal immigration, to new gun rules and the ancient rules of the Senate.  As Biden was very honest, he will keep to his schedule, next week the President is looking to have a 3 trillion plan for re- building America roads, bridges and other areas that make the US system work.  The liberal press is on the left, thus they will be getting their orders from the left and the New York Times.  If Biden wants a successful Presidency he has to keep to his path and his schedule, the best first first term in recent times was the 1st Reagan term.

Biden to run for re-election in 2024 - Biden Era

This blog had not planned to watch the first Biden press conference, as expected the liberal White House reporters are more liberal than Biden, they do not seem to get the fact that if the Republicans retake the House or Senate in 2022 the Democrats will be the minority party, do they really want to remove rules that help the Opposition. 

BBC New - Live Blog: Reports in its 7.25pm post the following, " Biden 2024? The president also got multiple questions on if he'd seek re-election in 2024. The short answer: yes. The caveat: Biden said today he is a "great respecter of fate" - leaving some room for ambiguity. "

Lets Get Real:

The above might have come as a shock to Vice - President Harris, did she know that she had signed up for 8 years as Biden's VP.

The First Biden press conference well for POTUS, mid way through he seemed to lose his train of thought, this will not help with the allegation that he is going gaga, also at the end of the conference he stepped away from the Presidential podium to walk up to a reporter that was asking questions.  My main thought was, Joe do not smell her hair!! That seem to be his thought as he returned to the Presidential podium.  POTUS will have seen that the White House press reporters are more liberal than him, they all wanted to talk about Senate rules, and how he is  decent guy and thus will take in illegal immigrants.  On North Korea POTUS did not say much, the North Korean Regime and Tehran could be his toughest foreign policy problems, as this blog has stated, Biden will appease Iran, as it was the major success of the Obama/Biden Administration, on NK god knows what they want and  are they really open to talks?  The Biden staff should restrict Press conferences to about 45 minutes, Biden can not do hours of press conferences, as Trump did.  On the whole good start for Biden. 

What is North Korea up to in Asia ? - Biden Era

Guardian: Reports " North Korea may have test fired ballistic missile, says Japan....Launch could be the regime’s first ballistic missile test of the Biden administration "

Lets Get Real:

This firing of ballistic missiles would have made major news, but the whole word is dealing with COVID - 19, as the missiles were limited, one has to ask what is North Korea doing and what does it want, does it just want to remind the World that it is a THREAT to the world order and thus wants the new Biden Administration to make concessions when it comes to sanctions that the US has placed on it.  If it wanted a DEAL, the North should have made one with the former Trump Administration, the Biden Oval wants to appease Iran, the question is can it afford also to appease North Korea, to be seen to appease never really works, thus we await the response from the Biden Oval.*

* The above commentary was based on yesterday's launch of missiles by the North Korean regime, but the commentary is VALDID for the recent launches. 

The END of WORLD as we KNOW IT - Passports for Pubs! - Post COVID-19

Sky News: Reports " COVID-19: Boris Johnson says pub landlords could bar punters without vaccine certificates....The PM revealed a number of bombshells about pubs, holidays, the French border, social care and MPs returning to the Commons. "

Lets Get Real:

IF WE the great British public have to have a passport for the pubs its the end of the World as we KNOW IT, this makes East Germany look better, I recall they did allow pubs!  What next, we have to cut down on meat to prevent climate damage, we will be rationed on how much chocolate we can have, sex will be based on a schedule planned by the health department.  The banning of petrol cars, of course they are on the way to do that already.  This all started when governments allowed University students to ban hearing from people they do not like, then the taking down of statues that might offend, or demonising some one who rich if that money came about during the slave trade, and thus the racist card is used, once your called a racist it is pretty hard to get it removed.  Just look at the Trans debate, if you go off the reservation of PC world you become an enemy, freedom of expression is no longer allowed the thought police come after you!!  

COVID - 19 Update, UK vs. EU - After Brexit and After COVID - 19

BBC News: Reports " The UK and the European Union have said they are working together to improve their relationship, after weeks of tensions over Covid vaccine supplies.  "

Lets Get Real:

One hopes that sounder minds have dealt with the problem, of the UK being ahead of the EU when it comes to COVID - 19 jabs.  The EU has shown itself to have poor leadership and not very good lawyers, the UK was first with the contracts and the EU delayed by months, thus the delay in getting the vaccine to the millions of people within the EU.  If the EU should start to play silly buggers then the UK should consider imposing trade sanctions against the EU, being hurt in the pocket will get the EU and the nation States to pull back on their horns.  Everyone needs to get the jab before the World is safe, thus India and other big nation states will need the jab.  A vaccine WAR would help no one.
