"Which speech? In Ukraine or Poland? Or another 1? I'm not sure it matters which speech it was, though. I can guess how it went. Praise the country you're in. Condemn Putin. Talk about freedom etc. " Yes, it was the speech in poland about the ongoing war in ukraine. I also like this saying he had about article 5, an attack against one is an attack against all. | |||

""put some pressure on the Republicans calling for the USA not to fund Ukraine." Not on the Republicans who do want to fund Ukraine. You only prove that you get angry a lot, and for no reason.

"There used to be many moderate Republicans for whom I had a lot of respect. Where are they now? Sounded out of office. The same thing has happened to many members of the Conservative party here, including former Ministers and Prime Ministers. When that happens it is clear that the party has changed, wouldn't you say? | |||

" From what I have now read, there does seem to have been a substantial response on the ground by the relevant authorities. Was that not the case? Was the fact that there was no political focus mean that the response to it was inadequate? What would "visitors from Washington or the environmental lobby" do if they turned up? Don't they just cause a distraction and take resources? Wouldn't they just be there trying to get publicity? Wouldn't that be the comment if they had all shown up? Trump is going to visit now. What did he or other Republican lawmakers say or do for the last 18 days before it recently did receive coverage? Sadly, attention is driven by the news cycle, regardless of political affiliation. | |||

"Don’t you think the speech plays into Putin’s hand? Biden arrives in Kyiv, reinforcing the narrative of Putin, he then travels to Poland and delivers his speech….. Bad timing in my opinion and providing all the propaganda required. " Or the opposite… with the 1st anniversary of the war coming up on Friday! Turn up in Kyiv giving the Russians 6 hrs notice so they dare not attack whilst he is in the country telling them that the us will stand with Ukrainians no matter what! And then he has meetings with the “Bucharest 9” (the 9 most eastern members of NATO) telling them he will stand by them as well! Plus it shows up putin as he is too scared to go to crimea or any of the newly occupied lands! Remember putin still jails people for calling it a war… remember it’s a special military operation…  | |||

The USA has a "debate" on guns due to the unamenable Second Amendment to your constitution.
Gun crime is exceptionally rare in the UK due to the very limited access to weapons, so the debate has been won. Then educate yourself assault weapons are not the issues. But you bang on about it. Just because the " News " tells you so. A little FACT handguns are the weapon of choice in mass shootings what disturbs you about a AR ?
Neither type of weapon "disturbs" me in the UK.
I didn't say that assault rifles were "the issue". I don't "bang on about it". It was a passing comment. You are the one still eager to discuss it. You're having an argument that I'm disinterested in.

I do.

"What does supposedly assault weapons have to do with Ukraine?
Well, I think that they have a lot of them in the Ukraine, being used for what they were designed to do.
However, the point was that the news item that I thought was being discussed was not pertinent, exactly as you say. Those are actually military grade you know fully automatic. You have 0 understanding the difference. Not getting in the gun debate you will lose. You have your expertise I have mine.
If you believe that there are no assault weapons in Ukraine I'm sure that you're right, but I wasn't discussing that at all.

I thought that it was a parallel being drawn to the place in the Middle East so I assumed it was about the recent spate of linked shootings in the USA. Hence the reference. Apparently it was not, so the topic is irrelevant. I don't have any subconscious feeling about the availability of weapons to the general public. My views on that topic are consciously considered. | |||

My view, I see the need for support, however I see the need for careful diplomacy and timing that removes any opportunity to allow Putin to be seen as correct in his speech to the nation.

"Don’t you think the speech plays into Putin’s hand? Biden arrives in Kyiv, reinforcing the narrative of Putin, he then travels to Poland and delivers his speech….. Bad timing in my opinion and providing all the propaganda required. 8 millions displaced Ukrainians , over 3,500 cruise missiles fired by Russia into a friendly neighbour, most Ukrainians couldn't give a fuck about one speech or what Putin thinks... Maybe they don't but I wasn't talking about the Ukrainians! I was talking about Russians being given the propaganda on a plate that will be used to encourage belief in Putin. Great stats though, thanks. Biden's speeches was not for the benefit of Russians. They only receive the official news unless they work very hard with VPNs to skirt the controls. Just like China. Biden's speeches were to reassure Ukraine and NATO border countries as well as embarrass those Republicans who are opposed to the war/support/admire Putin. Biden being there and speaking from the borders of Russia, played directly into the narrative of Putin. Gold dust in terms of propaganda for Putin That implies that not "playing into Putin's" narrative is the most important thing. Should Biden not reassure the allies of the USA by visiting them in person? Is that not equally or more important? Is it not equally or more important that he maintains support amongst the US public and makes it awkward for those wanting to stop aid to Ukraine. Timing.. The West + Ukraine can see and hear every day the support. Russian public do not get that privilege, unless it is handed to them on a plate. I can't see Russian tv, but I'm confident it is rolling out Biden on its borders and edited speeches. If the Russians don't need to fake it, it looks legit and garners support " The timing is equally important to the Ukraine, NATO allies and the USA. It's a significant date to be seen to be there. Russian TV would be rolling Biden whenever he made this trip and whatever he says. If anything, this has upstaged Putin. In garners no more support now than at any other time. | |||

"Tell Charles to step up and go to Ukraine. He is the ultimate figurehead. " That's up to the Government and highly unlikely as that is overt politics which the Monarch cannot be involved in. | |||

He still a judged figurehead over any figurehead you can produce. Tell me what is your government perception . Is it monarchy to other nations or is it mp. Charles needs to go to prove a point like I said you sending a VP or a speaker of the house here. England is not known for mps it's known for monarchy. Tell me I am wrong? | |||

He makes the decisions. He is the equivalent to your President as he actually runs the country. He's already been to the Ukraine. I guess this is the start of another rant, so off you go. | |||

Which war zone did Queen Elizabeth II visit during her reign? | |||

It's a tricky line to walk without being openly critical of Russia. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-64749277.amp | |||
