"In the event of a threat to the territorial integrity of our country and to defend Russia and our people, we will certainly make use of all weapon systems available to us," Putin said.US President Joe Biden responded: "Don't. Don't. Don't. It would change the face of war unlike anything since World War II."Military capabilities misjudged
While both the Ukrainian and Russian military capabilities seem to have been wildly misjudged, there is even more darkness here in the reports – and videos that have gone viral – of the private mercenary army, known as the Wagner Group linked to close Putin associate Yevgeny Prigozhin..Prigozhin is seen in the videos that emerged last week promising convicts release from prison in return for a six-month combat tour in Russia's war against Ukraine.
It doesn't just pose a geostrategic threat but an economic one too, as the European winter approaches and Putin gambles that Western solidarity will be shaken by a lack of fuel supplies across the continent.Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume.Australia will continue to urge Russia to withdraw from Ukraine
The stampede of our politicians – including all the atheists and republicans — to be conspicuously seen on the mourning monarchists' side of the ship feels like it has left things a little unbalanced, to say the least.
Just take this dictator out of the picture then the world can get on with setting the economies back in order and then peace hopefully, how difficult is it?
True.
You've misquoted the headline. That's not cool.
NATO requires compromise to help end the conflict, revise membership for countries sharing a land border with Russia to guarantee no militarisation in such countries unless Russia did actually attack. The US would not be happy if a Russian equivalent of NATO was active in Canada.
That's a big arrogant call. The world knew QEII had died but wasn't on pause.
The world wasn't on pause. A lot of people didn't follow your excessive live coverage that much because we know there are very serious matters to attend to about the future. I empathise for the loss but we need more balance
Your reporting put us on pause. The only thing missing was a story on the royal number 2s and an analysis of her final meal to produce them.
The world wasn’t in pause, but certainly was. Do better
What was wrong with original headline?
Yep. This is a good talk about it all.
Yes UK Prime Minister Liz Truss threatened the world with nuclear weapons
latingle world was not on pause, it’s egotistical to think billion + people in China, or 200 million across Ukraine and Russia, stopped, to mourn the death of a foreign monarch.
The world wasn't on pause. Just ourABC
Darker than arming a nation dominated by Nazis? History has shown there is not much worse than that
I liked the coverage of the Queen. BBC especially did a great job. War with Russia has been brewing since Hillary, and the 2016 election.
This is a pretty irritating headline, after people begged to stop the inane saturation coverage over the last 2 weeks, and cover more important global stories. We were paying attention. You went full-on “New Idea”
I wonder if there would have been better coverage of Putin’s insanity if 25 ABC colleagues had not been shipped off to England to cover QE II’s despatch. That was a very Ita/Womens Weekly policy decision. What was risible was we only saw the BBC feed of the funeral.
So black ties have finally gone then? It's safe to turn on the news?
Typo! ANALYSIS: While the world was on pause for the Queen, things have taken a darker turn. ANALYSIS: While the ABC was having a wankfest in London for the Queen, things that were not reported has finally caught up to them.
Give it a break. Oh, you already did. Back on the ABC diatribe bandwagon then shall we.
the opportunity was ignored by our ABC in favor of a trip to london
Analysis? Try inanity The ABC may've been 'on pause' The world wasn't
The world wasn’t on pause, obviously.
Loving the comments people…. The ABC along with 7,9,10 have all been weapon used against us the people. They lie to us, they feed us propaganda. idonttrustthemedia
The world? Only those of British heritage from Ireland to Australia cared. No one else including Russians and us!
Ummm, she was not Queen of the world!!
Shame on you ABC. Your willful ignoring of the news to engage in mourn porn is an embarrassment to your purpose and you've failed Australia.
No, ABC, the world didn’t take a pause. The media did. The rest of us were trying to grab your attention to ask you to focus on the other things.
The 'world' wasn't on 'pause'.
