Russia strikes Kyiv as UK’s Starmer arrives to sign 100-year treaty with Zelenskyy – POLITICO
KYIV — U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer has arrived in Ukraine to pledge more weapons and promise British support for the next 100 years, as the war against invading Russian forces enters a critical phase.
Almost three years since Vladimir Putin’s full-scale invasion began, Donald Trump is due to return to the White House as U.S. president and has pledged to end the war in short order.
At the same time, political forces sympathetic to Moscow are gaining ground across Europe — in countries including Austria, Romania and Germany.
Why anyone in Europe would be sympathetic towards Putin or Moscow is beyond me. It reminds me of that cartoon with two sheep looking at a poster of a wolf saying "I will eat you", and one of them saying to the other "he tells it like it is!"
Russian money and disinformation campaigns. The same as in the US, really.
The same reason you'd be sympathetic to USA
I unironically get the appeal when the poster for the last however many years was a sheep saying "I won't eat you!", and then turned out to be a wolf that ate you anyway.
European democracy has many, many flaws, but compared with Russian dictatorship, it's a utopia. This is a ridiculous take.
Which country is it that invaded its neighbour again? Romania or Russia? Which country is regularly assassinating journalists? Germany or Russia?
