In the years to come we will all remember what we were doing on Thursday, February 24, 2022.
Yesterday morning President Vladimir Putin in his address threatened any nation who supports Ukraine. He threatened us with such a disastrous consequence, the likes of which we have never seen. Does that mean nuclear war?
Last evening on German television station ZDF, German economics minister Robert Habeck gave an impassioned analysis of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. He looked and sounded worried but spoke with great honesty and clarity. Earlier in the day he had visited the Ukrainian embassy in Berlin and spoke of the worry he saw etched on the embassy staff. He saw tears in the eyes of one man.
Interesting to compare the words, the language, the gestures of an democratically elected politician with the behaviour of Vladimir Putin.
Robert Habeck is vice chancellor and a member of the Green Party.
Just over a week ago Vladimir Putin told the world that Russia had no intentions of invading Ukraine.
The world has too many liars.
There’s much to learn from history. On this day, February 25, 1922 Tiblisi, the capital of Georgia fell to the invading Russian army and was declared the Georgian Soviet Socialist Republic.
Last evening US General Petraeus said that Vladimir Putin has not only assaulted Ukraine but he has also assaulted democracy.
