POTUS warns of chemical/biological use by Russia - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 12.01pm Ukraine Update the following, " US President Joe Biden has warned that Russian leader Vladimir Putin may be preparing to use chemical and biological weapons in Ukraine  "

Lets Get Real:

This should be a RED LINE for POTUS, he saw  how his former boss, President Obama failed to follow through with his red line in Syria, people after that were not afraid of Obama, once a President says something is a red line he has to follow through, problem with Obama he never go over his own ego, one hopes Biden gets something right on foreign policy after forty years.  The thought that Putin might be minded to use chemical or biological weapons in the HEART o Europe should worry the US and the Western Europe.  One can image the images, they would shock the WORLD, and if Biden did nothing would harm his reputation and the Democrats chances in the November Mid Terms.  The Biden Oval has to be very clear with the Kremlin, any use of chemical or biological weapons gets the US in to Ukraine, starting with a no fly zone.  The origins of WW3, shall see.

Biden SPEAKS to Western Leaders - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

The White House: Readout of call between POTUS and Western Leaders, the issue was Ukraine, " President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. spoke today with President Emmanuel Macron of France, Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany, Prime Minister Mario Draghi of Italy, and Prime Minister Boris Johnson of the United Kingdom.  The leaders discussed their serious concerns about Russia’s brutal tactics in Ukraine, including its attacks on civilians. They underscored their continued support for Ukraine, including by providing security assistance to the brave Ukrainians who are defending their country from Russian aggression, and humanitarian assistance to the millions of Ukrainians who have fled the violence. The leaders also reviewed recent diplomatic efforts in support of Ukraine’s effort to reach a ceasefire.  "

Lets Get Real:

The above are FINE WORDS, but words at the end of the day, there comes a time when you have to walk the walk, and DO SOMETHING, the KYIV Government has been asking for a NO FLY ZONE since the start of the WAR, it is about time POTUS changed his mind on the subject, people are getting killed every day in the Ukraine and the WEST DOES NOTHING, yes the West is arming the Army of the Ukraine, but sometimes have to take on the role yourself, the Ukraine Army is fighting for the Ukraine and the West, the WEST cannot avoid a conflict with Putin, the same as the West faced in 1939.  Sometimes in life or a history of a State, events just happen, and you have to deal with the consequences, the US needs a new FDR if Biden wont play that role, and the UK needs a Churchill, in fact the entire world needs a CHURCHILL, that is the only way to stop the Russians.   That sentiment,  Sir Winston would have understood. 

Russia CLOSE to CUTTING Diplomatic TIES with US - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 2.25pm post the following, " Russia has told the US ambassador that ties are on the verge of being severed following “unacceptable comments” from US president Joe Biden about Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin.  "

"

Lets Get Real:

Has President Putin finally LOST the plot, of course today in the modern world there is no need for Ambassadors as such, there is always the mobile ( cell  for Americans ), Text, Email, Facetime etc.  So if Putin did need to speak on a urgent matter with POTUS he can always do the above.  It would be a major symbolic moment, without the US in Russia the World would see that Russia was the top rogue nation, followed by North Korea and Iran.  One can speculate that this is what Putin want, to isolate Russia, but even during the COLD WAR there was always an Ambassador in each others Country, if nothing else it allowed the KGB and CIA to place their own agents in the field and to butter up those that wanted to LEAK information.  The US State Department will not be happy, they are a Island on to themselves, no one with a brain in the UK trusts the FCO, far to0 appeaser and for the other side, as for the EU not BREXIT.

Mariupol will never Surrender - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

Sky News: Reports " Russia's deadline passes with Ukraine refusing to lay down arms and surrender Mariupol...Mariupol's residents are desperately short of food, water, and electricity, while being relentlessly attacked by Russian troops - but officials say there will be no surrender.  "

Lets Get Real:

There is street to street, door to door fighting in MARIUPOL, as reported that Russian tried to get the CITY in 2014 but failed, thus this brutal destruction of the city is revenge, Putin is former KGB let's recall.  There is NATO meeting on Thursday to discuss the Ukrainian crisis, the WEST must do more, it must increase sanctions, stop ALL Russian trade, the Russia economy is in the toilet, well its time to flush it down to the sewer, the ELITES that are friends of Putin should place pressure on him, or overthrow him, Russia needs a new leader, Putin has failed as Tsar Nicholas 11 failed with Port Arthur in Manchuria at the start of the 20th Century, that lead to the 1905 Russian revolution that was stopped by the Imperial Regime granting limited reforms, such as a DUMA, the Russian people need their democracy back before its to late. 

Are the PEACE TALKS for real ? - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports the following in its LATEST post, " Russia isn't serious about peace talks, Ukrainian President Zelensky's adviser has told the BBC's Newshour...."You don't look for peace and bombard cities on a large scale at the same time."  "

Lets Get Real:

The Russians are playing games, they are trying to divert attention of the WESTERN MEDIA, already you are hearing talk from the media that would have expected during 1938/39 and the era of appeasement, that only peace talks can end the the Ukraine WAR, that is BS, winning a war means WINNING, not going SOFT on the issues, the Ukraine state cannot be carved up, to be honest the CRIMEA is gone, if this blog can recall it was only given the Ukraine in 1954, let's recall we had a WAR with Russia in the Crimea IN the 19th Century.  The poor people of the Ukraine have to fight for every inch of the Country, that is why the KYIV Government turned down the surrender of Mariupol demand by the Russians, the people of the Ukraine are fighting for their Country and for the West.  Putin must lose and be seen to LOSE.

East Ukraine Men in the separatist Areas forced to fight for Russia - Russia - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports the following in its 8.43pm post, " The Kyiv Independent reported today that Russia is illegally forcing untrained men living in the Russian-controlled Donbas region to fight and putting them on the frontlines.  "

Lets Get Real:

As previous post, the above is also out of Stalin's playbook, forcing men to fight and shooting them if they run away, how debased and morally corrupt in the modern Russian Army, as we have seen it is very inept and is only winning CITIES like Mariupol because it has a bigger force and is willing to destroy cities to save them.   The Russian State is economically and morally bankrupt, the Putin Regime will do whatever it takes to WIN, use new weapons, also the threat of using chemical and biological weapons, one doubts that Putin is MAD enough to go nuclear, that would lead to WW3.  The Ukraine represents the old Czechoslovakia of 1938/39, sacrificed by the West to prevent a WAR that is coming. It seems history is never learned, humans make the same mistake over and over again. 

The FATE of the poor people of Mariupol - Russia - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 8.06pm post the following, " The mayor of Mariupol says several thousand residents from the besieged city have been sent to Russia....In a message on Telegram, Vadym Boychenko, said that some were redirected to remote cities in Russia, while the fate of others remained unknown.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is out of Stalin's playbook, God knows were the people have been sent and if they can ever come back, the poor Mariupol has been bombed, 90% destroyed, the Russian even bombed a maternity hospital and claimed that Ukraine forces were there, NOT TRUE, as footage showed after the bombing.  The Russians are NOW fighting street to street, that is not helping in the rescue of 1,300 people from a bombed theatre, if any CITY represents the suffering of Ukraine it is Mariupol, the Russians are not showing ANY mercy to fellow Slavs, they are destroying a CITY to save the CITY.  The West must do more, but not enough to start WW3, that is tricky, the suffering of the people gets WORSE, at some point Putin will go to FAR and the West will have to react, dangerous times ahead.
