    Лондон одобрил атаки Украины по Крыму. Подобное разрешение Великобритания дала Киеву в связи с тем, что считает полуостров частью украинской территории. Об этом сообщил глава Минобороны Британии Грант Шаппс. Шотландия должна будет это учитывать, когда решит отделяться.....и да, Лондон тоже когда-то вышел из Евросоюза.

    Then you will have war with China instead. Isolationism and appeasement brought World War II, just as your witlessness would bring World War III.
