The issue is, the people who are (supposedly) in charge are also sounding increasingly hysterical and seem to be actively pushing for a NATO-Russia confrontation.

That is obviously insane, so I do wonder if there isn't something else going on beneath the surface



Is it insane when Russian media and political class threatens nuclear strikes on European capitals for years now?


While we clearly told russia that if they invade the baltics we wouldn't nuke them?


Um. Theres a peace deal in the making right now. not sure you are too well informed.


I hope so, but we have the head of NATO and numerous senior British officials (including the head of MI6, who is never normally heard from) talking about an impending major war. Maybe (hopefully) this is just hedging and something can be worked out


Mi6 didnt say that there was an impending major war. They said theres a growing threat from Russia.

When agencies like that put those statements out, its not just to warn the public. Its to put pressure on the other side.

There will be a peace deal in Ukraine soon.
