Russia. After Ukraine, should we be quaking in our boots?     

ExecLine - 21 Feb 2015 12:30

Putin issues chilling new threat as Nato chief says tensions with Russia could end in 'all out conflict'



* Putin unveiled ambitious military modernization program with new combat jets, missiles and other weapons
* General Sir Adrian Bradshaw said Vladimir Putin could use 'hybrid-warfare 'to seize former Baltic states
* He backed plans to set up Nato force integration units in eastern Europe to 'send a strong signal' to the Kremlin
* Comments echo those by Defence Secretary who claimed Russian aggression poses as great a threat as Isis
* Ukraine secret services accuse political aide to Vladimir Putin of directing the snipers in Kiev prior to the revolution
* RAF jets this week scrambled to intercept two Russian bombers capable of carrying nuclear missiles off Cornwall
* Tupolev Tu95 Bear aircraft streaked along fringes of UK airspace, prompting the deployment of two Typhoons
* Russian TV later screens footage of mid-air contact thought to have been filmed on previous interception
* Country 'could not cope' if Russia attacked because our defences have been 'decimated', say military chiefs
* David Cameron defiantly dismissed the incident, saying the Russians 'are trying to make some sort of a point'
* But former air chiefs say number of British fighter squadrons has fallen from 26 at Cold War end to just seven

Max,

C+P from Nowt!

Just listen to Rory Stewart on Sky News Murnaghan intervie on Putin and Ukraine.

Interesting summary.

I have always found him as very thoughtful and sensible.

Worth a look.
