It all plays well with the Russian people who love having their President playing the strong man by standing up against what they're conditioned to believe is the west constantly trying to undermine their society.

In reality the west would more than happy to get along with Russia as a trading partner and perhaps even an ally in resisting the pressure from the real  threat to the global power balance, China.

But what about putin?

As ninjaferret said he will keep pushing in the hope that china invade taiwan or nepal then he can move across Ukraine unnoticed, hes already got troops in kazakhstan all be it at the kazakhstan governments request but i'm betting they don't leave!

Well Ditchman I think that Mr Putin is an amazing military tactician. While the west is looking at Ukraine he walks right into Kazakhstan unopposed  by invitation. Kazakhstan has amazing mineral wealth and resources including gas and oil and most importantly Uranium. 

fuel prices in the west are rocketing, we can not afford to go to war, and what does  Mr Putin do….. he secures his own supplies for many years to come and who does he sell it to….. the west and the Uk. Perfect storm our nuclear power stations are coming to be decommissioned our coal fired plants are being pulled down and not just here in the UK, I would say he has us over a barrel both for fuel and financially.

Nato has snapped up I think it’s 13-14 former soviet bloc countries and allowed them to join NATO including Estonia Latvia Poland etc right on his borders. Makes NATO look aggressive playing in his back yard! 
So I think he will bide his time and place his people in Ukraine and stage  demonstrations and a period of further unrest and wait for the invite learning from his annexation of Crimea and from history with the Sudetenland. 
Mr Putin sees this as reclaiming and rejoining the bits of the former Soviet Block as well as expansion Into the cauldron of the Middle East I.e. Syria as peacekeeping duties…. Second leg of a pincer movement. 

 

as for China they have been building man made Island in the South China Sea they will not be opposed when they enter Taiwan I would be surprised if Mr Johnson or Mr Biden or their successors want to get into a shooting war with Mr Jinping.

I don’t know who is pushing and who is pulling? Well beyond my pay grade.

I'm with you Ditchy, he's pushing and pushing to see how far he can go and get away with.

As for tea I can not abide the smell of mushy peas they are an unnatural green and have been conjured up by Beelzebub himself.

Hello, neither , not every ones favourite , tin of marrowfat peas 🤔 getting back to Simon's post on Putin , you only have to look at past events on Russian power but at the moment it's stalemate with NATO forces, but who will back down ?
