🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 If Poo-tin had diarrhea, he would blame Ukraine. With regards to the Russian cruise missile entering Polish air space for such an extended period, this will not have been to get around Ukrainian air defence but to test Poland (political reaction or technical ability). As such if Poland had used ground air defence systems to shoot it down the Russians would have gained perhaps what they were after. If Poland had used aircraft to shoot it down this could have got round this but the trouble is unless you maintain a CAP over the boarder aircraft are never going to be able to respond in time. Personnally I think it is long past time Europe became far more agressive and went at least partially along John Boltons idea of a no fly zone in Western Ukraine. This could be done without placing any anti air assets in Ukraine but missiles etc could still be targeted far inside Ukraine. Even Belarus and Russia should be told attack missiles coming within close proximity of the boarder that could be a threat would also be targeted even if over their airspace. Turkey took this stance with Russia when they kept flying through their airspace from Syria and ended up shooting down a Russian SU24 in Syrian airspace, as a result of which the Russian pilot was killed. Yeah Poo-tin gobbed off a lot afterwards but did NOTHING and NEVER entered Turkish airspace again.

The territorial integrity of Ukraine is bursting at the seams, because the territories did not have the right to vote, did not have and do not have the right to choose. The desire of the Kyiv regimes to retain the territory of the Ukrainian SSR is very ambitious, but they ignored the freedom of the people in these territories. The Kyiv regimes are criminally changing the Ukrainian language, changing traditions without alternative, ignoring the historical ethnicity of the celebrations, everything is being done to make the population of Ukraine amoebic slaves of billionaires and external corporate interests.
