When will Morrison be visiting? He needs a rise in the polls as well.

Bit stupid sending both just send aid

a clown meets comedian and they decided to stop the war by pumping more arms into the hands of far-right neonazi and criminals... Stop US Stop UK Shop NATO Stop the war Peace to Ukraine

If he wanted to help he could be trying to get the ukraine national debt cancelled.. that would do more

Another case of Zelenskyy playing with his Johnston I don't agree with war in any form but don't trust Ukraine after they killed Russians for the past 8+ years. Then look at torture and war crimes by USA, NATO and the west inc. Australia.

Story of a Ukrainian🇺🇦 pilot 🛩 shot down -----

This war is a product of changing geopolitical dynamics, notably the lack of economic containment on a global scale is creating a geopolitical imbalance of power. The result is a dramatic destabilization of the conditions required for world peace. Effectuality is at Causality...

These three nations couldn't be more different by default: UK is a unitary state and constitutional monarchy, Ukraine is a unitary state but a republic, Russia is a federation and republic. They are not peas in a pod, all three are from different trees entirely.

UK is a unitary state and a constitutional monarchy, it seems Johnson doesn't quite understand how UK, Ukraine and Russia differ in that respect, it's not a matter of the leadership or government, it's a matter of default system design.

What happened to the war ? Is it over ? How can he fly to Kyiv ?
