@TiffieDoodle@brikeilarcnn@jaketapper Fiona Hill, expert supreme, is saying don’t give him a military excuse. Because in a hot war he would. Isolate financially and diplomatically. That’s how you stop him.
@TiffieDoodle@brikeilarcnn@jaketapper But don’t get me wrong. This stuff has chewed away my nerves. I just don’t think the West is operating blindly. They are not going to start a shooting war.
@TiffieDoodle@brikeilarcnn@jaketapper I don’t. I think that’s why you hear Allies stress every day they won’t enter a shooting war with Russia. Flat out state it. While Russia keeps saying sanctions are sanctions but don’t test us with a real war. West is letting them know we won’t escalate along those lines.
@lovinthatloud @sentdefender @WolverineUSMC90 @walterlekh Preliminary signs point to bad weather. It’s in the Romanian release. Pilots reporting bad weather, ordered to turn around. Sadly went down. It’s cynical but thank God signs aren’t pointing to weapons fire. Wish Twitter users would show restraint.
@phildstewart He said this as a repeat of their “justification.” It’s a continuation of the narrative that they invaded Ukraine to keep it from getting nukes. To avoid that sort of risk. It was not a new statement about what they might do. He’s saying Putin took steps to avoid WW3.

@yourauntemma Read it. Clear it’s a damn good thing we’re not going to enter a shooting war with him as his response would be horrific. Sounds like if anything we need to keep up the sanctions and do more. Companies pull out. Nations (all) simply refuse to do business.
@CdnInvestor@allahpundit Yep. Before this started, Russia stated it would take Ukraine’s pledge not to join NATO. And at 11th hour it sounded like Zelensky might agree to stave off an invasion. Talking for 4 hours now. Fingers crossed.
Marjorie Taylor Greene now using her official USG congressional account to promote anti-Semitic, white supremacist, pro-Hitler, pro-Putin conference. This is a toxin in the bloodstream of America. It must stop.
House GOP Leaders: Have you lost all sense of decency?
@ruthbenghiat Ukraine stating at presser their feeling is Putin, who gave that message after both sides agreed to meet, is trying to exert additional pressure on their delegation.
Ukraine has submitted its application against Russia to the ICJ. Russia must be held accountable for manipulating the notion of genocide to justify aggression. We request an urgent decision ordering Russia to cease military activity now and expect trials to start next week.
@denismuto21 @MKinMT @Acyn Oh you are so full of shit. This man’s head was in Putin’s lap for 4 years. He blackmailed Zelensky. He’s a traitor to the very concept of democracy and you can’t stop being a sheep for 5 minutes.
Pattern emerging in West's response to Russia — US deferring to Europe in letting other nations and the EC be first to announce sanctions, halting Nord Stream 2, etc.
West is remarkably unified and you can really see the WH hand in ally management.
