Yes, it is interesting. But I find it a bit more interesting, as this has already cropped up in the John Lough interview. From memory, he put it as 'I'm coming round to the idea of British and French troops in Ukraine'. As he works for Chatham house, I suspect that this has provenance.Apologies for the source

Indeed, the allies should not rule out any options.Apologies for the source

FWIW as it doesn’t seem to have gained much traction, Russia is currently trying to get a pro-Kremlin strong man elected in Romania

They are at government regime level, but there have been reports that the Belarusian military and civilians are less supportive of Putin and Russia.
Been reports of this since 13th November.
Some of the drones returned to Russia, some went into Ukraine.
Can only imagine Putin is either trying to make it look like the drones are launching from Belarus to make it appear they have actively joined the war.
Or he’s probing for weakness so he can send troops into Belarus and open up another front with Ukraine.
But who knows? Russia is a prick.
