I am convinced, this is an empty threat. Putin knows that if he bombs foreign embassies in Kyiv, the international community will punish Russia severely, and likely sever all diplomatic ties with Moscow, worsening Putin’s difficult situation even more.

My gran was Irish although my family is predominately Scottish. None of what I say is lies, much of it is what I have seen and from people I know and still talk to from my time out there. If you respect the right to self determination how can you support the result of a violent coup by a minority? You cite western propaganda but one of the things I learnt when I lived in the FSU is that the people out there know that it is all propaganda. The problem in the west is that we believe that our politicians are telling us the truth. Every time you read the BBC where it mentions the war it does not say "the war in Ukraine", an objective reference, it say "Russia's all our invasion" or some such biased term. Prior to the Iraq war we used to get objective news and were allowed to look at the facts but now we only get propaganda. Yes, I have toned down but you still see me as the enemy because I want peace and you want war. The war is over really, it is just the fighting that continues. Russia has what it wanted but Putin would like to take more. The Russian people have no wish for more and now would be a good time to gain peace but the warmongers want more. More death and destruction that mean it will be impossible for Ukraine to recover. The young people will not return to the war zone, they have jobs in nicer places. The US will take the farm land in payment for the weapons. The country has been destroyed and you will see that as Russia but it began before 2014 and Ukraine is simply a proxy for the US to fight Russia. I accept that you think of me as a Russian fan but I was in Georgia when the Russians arrived and am no fan but I do prefer an end to war.]]>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://friendica.hubup.pro/objects/174591b4-126a-1867-9e8d-ba9955561214https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://friendica.hubup.pro/objects/174591b4-126a-1867-9e8d-ba9955561214Thu, 28 May 2026 16:04:46 GMT<![CDATA[Reply to The Russian ministry of foreign affairs claims to be about to bomb Kyiv so extensively that international embassies should evacuate. on Thu, 28 May 2026 10:47:30 GMT]]>@randahl @samueljohnson It is risible nonsense to keep using the propaganda concept that Ukraine was a sovereign country after the coup. It clearly was not. The country split into its different groups and none controlled all the land of Ukraine and therefore none were sovereign. Media like the BBC push such propaganda to promote hatred and division such as yours. During the civil war the Nazi groups like Azov and Sich that we were funding were killing lots of the 40% of the population that voted for pro Russian parties. This was because the country could not align to the western model if allowed to democratically vote for a pro Russian government. So we were paying the people of western Ukraine to kill the people of eastern Ukraine in a civil war that was well underway before Russia, quite predictably took a side. The Ukrainian people, who are not stupid, could see where this was going. I find it amazing that people like yourself were surprised. Zelenskyy, who lived and worked in Russia and only spoke Russian, stood for election on a platform of avoiding a war that everyone knew was coming if Azov and Sich kept murdering the ethnic Russians. No one seemed to care about the ethnic Hungarians etc. that were also suffering ethnic cleansing. Unfortunately, as soon as Zelenskyy was elected, Boris Johnson went and had a word with Zelenskyy to explain the advantages of war and Zelenskyy tore up all the negotiations and promises to the people and went to war. The war was completely unnecessary and it was not Russia that wanted it but the Russian people will not allow the ethnic cleansing to return. People like you seem to believe that it is OK to ban the first language of a people from schools and governments but that is ethnic cleansing. Banning the church of the people is also ethnic cleansing but you are fine as you hate Russia. You probably also claim that Russia invaded Crimea even though in exactly the same situation we faught for Kosovo's right to cede. We started this war, not Russia, not even Ukraine. No one is talking about how the people of Donbas or Crimea would be protected if Russia left or if the bombing and genocide would return. Not even Russia cares about the people of Transcarpathia, they can just die quietly because we are busy killing Russians. War is wrong and dumb propaganda cannot make it right.]]>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://friendica.hubup.pro/objects/174591b4-676a-181d-42b3-0a2070555682https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://friendica.hubup.pro/objects/174591b4-676a-181d-42b3-0a2070555682Thu, 28 May 2026 10:47:30 GMT<![CDATA[Reply to The Russian ministry of foreign affairs claims to be about to bomb Kyiv so extensively that international embassies should evacuate. on Wed, 27 May 2026 18:40:24 GMT]]>@randahl Given that Ukraine has targetted Moscow I am sure he will do so and there is no reason why any internation country would be surprised. Most have helped keep the war going and are unlikely to be listened to having chosen to be at war with Russia. We have always had the option of working toward peace yet constantly choose war. There is no surprise here.]]>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://friendica.hubup.pro/objects/174591b4-176a-173a-9814-a73594918589https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://friendica.hubup.pro/objects/174591b4-176a-173a-9814-a73594918589Wed, 27 May 2026 18:40:24 GMT<![CDATA[Reply to The Russian ministry of foreign affairs claims to be about to bomb Kyiv so extensively that international embassies should evacuate. on Wed, 27 May 2026 18:40:19 GMT]]>@randahl

According to Statista based on data from the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), as of April 30, 2026, 15,850 Ukrainian civilians have been killed and 44,809 have been injured.

The message from the Russians saying they will be targeting war industries in Kyiv appears be a shift in their strategy and an admission they’ve been targeting civilians all along.
