Sampson Posted 6 March 2022 Posted 6 March 2022 Anyway... This is hardly surprising given how few sanctions we have imposed and given how strict our Ukranian refugee policy is (and how we've stopped Ukranian citizens applying for visas) compared to the rest of the western world 1
David Hankey Posted 6 March 2022 Posted 6 March 2022 Remember Putin saying back on 24th February that he feared Russia was about to be invaded by Ukraine and that, supposedly, was enough for him to order his military to advance. That decision was based on utter hogwash. A country with a much reduced land mass compared to that of Russia, a population of 40M compared to over 140M plus all the military might Putin has it is fanciful in the extreme.

Will make no difference in Russia as all Russian credit card transactions are handled within russia it will affect Russians trying to spend outside Russia with Russian bank cards and those from outside Russia trying to spend money within the country on their cards. 1

thursday_next Posted 6 March 2022 Posted 6 March 2022 It seems that the whole Ukraine catastrophe is worth nothing as opposed to civilised attacks on the moderators. Oh well, that's life, I suppose. I can always find better things to do. I'm setting up a crowdfunding website in order to buy a second-hand Mig 29 which I can donate to the Ukrainian Air Force 1
