Suwalki gap.I do wonder if he is planning to try to connect Kaliningrad back to mainland Russia.
For sure it's a target.
Maybe not quite yet.

In what sense do you find any of this exciting?It’s hard to comprehend isn’t it. I’m late for work, because of really (listening to coverage, posting on here etc but days like today are seismic watermarks. All our lives have just changed overnight in ways we just don’t know yet. It’s exciting (if honest) and terrifying (being brutally honest) in equal measure.
Glory to Ukraine, Glory to the heroes.
Hopefully not as have visited all of them and the people were all very friendly and do not deserve that
Putin has the advantage here. He knows exactly what the roadmap is, and where it ends. Everyone else is just guessing.
That’s the big question; where does this end? A week ago he said he wouldn’t invade Ukraine. Now he has, and is actively threatening the use of nuclear weapons against the west (inferred or otherwise). That’s a quick development. Where are we in another week? A month? A year?
Deeply concerning times.

I can’t get the footage of Ukrainian school children, involved in air raid shelter drills out of my mind. How many of them will lose their fathers in the ensuing carnage ? They should never know of war, but in the eyes of an unhinged psychopath, they’re nothing more than collateral damage. This is truly sickening. We are about to see a peaceful nation reduced to a pile of rubble. Who’s next ?
I’m still waiting to see footage of Putin in the presence of women. He seems to prefer men in military uniform.
I think I have covid, great morning so far..

Tobias Ellwood is a sane voice and probably way too sensible to be introduced to the cabinet but he is a Tory we could trust and who could really help the country. Sadly, his record of Boris-Bashing makes him incompatible with the current regime.

Ill ask my Ukrainian wife how "excited" her family are. (Shes a British citizen as we have been married 20 years but her family still live there
Unless sanctions work and those who hold the purse strings in Russia oust him, Putin is going nowhere for the foreseeable. Which doesn’t leave many options. The West can either keep supporting Ukraine but ultimately Putin will gain control of Ukraine. If that I have little doubt. This would likely lead to genocide. Then I imagine the options narrow even further. Do the UN go in? Could they go in?
Then we have a decision whether to engage militarily. At this point it’s very dangerous as the nuclear threat becomes real.
Or we wait and see what he does next. If he makes moves on the Baltics, it’s WW3 for certain. And then nuclear war is a very realistic outcome.
I cannot see this ending up without boots on the ground.
Exciting categorically isn't the word but I am always...awed, I guess, when I realise I'm living through moments that will one day end up in the global history books.

I would hope, and am choosing to believe, that's what he meant by 'exciting'.
