About the war - Volume 1
How crap is the Russian Military. - Very it seems, Very poor troops, bad or lacking equipment, terrible logistics, poor planning, apparent lack of command and control in the theatre, special forces being a long way short of special. I had visions of a crack spearhead of modern tanks thrusting to the edge of Kiev, in 48 hours - supported by paratroopers taking key crossings ahead of them, backed up by fast mobile well equipped platoons, air support on hand.
Putin. Terrible planning, unable to to take the moral high ground, all his plans and deceptions broadcast by the west before they happen - Clearly out of his depth - a fact painted on the faces of his generals at the televised "strategic" meeting.
How good has Europe been - Wow. After a slow start they have been tough, united, speaking with a single voice - very Impressed. Germany? again impressed, prepared to take a lot of future pain, willing and quick to change fundamental values they held. France - well true to form turned into duplicitous quivering wrecks the moment Macron was humiliated at the big table.
Boris. Again (tough to say this) done well. Its not all been about him and his Churchillian moment, clearly he has worked well with, and cajoled where required his European colleagues. Seems to be calm and unflustered.
The Yanks. Well the walking corpse has said the right things, not gone over the top, has let Europe take the lead. Clearly from what we have surmised, they are patrolling the skies over the Nato border efficiently with little fuss or fanfare.
The Chinese, Ok say some bad things about the west, but not prepared to upset the economic applecart, not prepared to break sanctions, not prepared to back Putin up at the UN.
