Report: Russia ‘plotting Christmas Eve invasion’ with 100,000 troops amassing on Ukraine border
Intelligence chiefs have warned ministers of a “very real possibility” Russia could invade Ukraine on Christmas Eve.
It would coincide with the 42nd anniversary of the Soviet Union’s ill-fated invasion of Afghanistan.
Up to 100,000 Russian troops are massed on the border.
Both the Ministry of Defence and the Foreign Office refused to comment on what action the UK might take in the event of a Russian invasion.
Colonel Richard Kemp, a former commander in Afghanistan said: “There is no possibility of direct military intervention by the UK, NATO or the US in the event of a Russian attack against Ukraine.
“The most likely option is diplomatic and economic sanctions,
The “invasion force” consists of thousands of ground troops, tanks, attack helicopters, artillery and anti-aircraft regiments.
Both the UK and the US have warning Vladimir Putin, inset, he would face serious consequences.

He said: “It is highly unlikely anyone is going to send troops into Ukraine to challenge Russia. The Ukrainians are aware of that.”
Asked if that meant Ukraine was on its own, Mr Wallace said deep and serious economic sanctions with long-lasting implications were being threatened against Russia instead of military action.
Vladimir Putin’s dream of reclaiming the territory that once belonged to the USSR is almost certainly sure to end in military conflict, and with US forces sworn to support Ukraine, a superpower standoff seems almost inevitable.
A widespread conflict across Europe would almost inevitably follow a full invasion of Ukraine by Russia, warns Yuliia Laputina, the Ukrainian minister for veterans affairs.
When asked directly if a Russian invasion could lead to a new world war, Laputina said: “Yeah…because geopolitically, it looks like this is a possible scenario. So… we should pay attention to the Ukrainian issue because of the security of the continent.”
I don’t believe Russia is the aggressor. Has everyone forgotten Burisma? And who got paid off in Burisma? This whole energy thing with Ukraine is a scam…Russia is willing to give energy but the same corrupt type of forces that stop energy in the US under a false pretext operate there, US and European forces are involved. Ukraine was destabalized under Obama. It is being used as a point where the same forces that want to extend medical tyranny worldwide are trying to invade Russia (not the other way around), now Christian Orthodox Russia. Russia does not succumb to the New World Order and that is what Ukraine is all about. Plus, Russia is rich, has gold, no debt compared to the US, multiple natural resources and greedy people want that by war rather than honest trade, as President Trump would have done. It’s a pack of lies that Russia is trying to invade Ukraine. Russia is simply trying to protect its borders and if the US and NATO are aggressive, vile US and NATO forces that seek the engulf the world in WWIII, then Russia will have to respond to an attack/invasion. Any sane nation would respond to an invasion, unlike the United States which is being invaded at its southern border. And if the US is really concerned about borders, it ought to start with its own southern border, rather than the Ukraine. That in itself should tell you that this is not a real issue. If you care about borders, start at home with your own US borders. Russia is NOT an aggressor just to be an aggressor. That is propaganda. And if there is a WWIII with Russia, that will take the attention off of the failures in the US and the internal destruction of the US brought on through the stolen election. It will also take the attention off the death from the jab…this is death by injection by a tyrannical government instead of Hitler’s concentration camps. And it will bring in martial law so that if elections are held at all, they will be controlled and stolen, like 2020, or they will require people to take the deadly jab to vote. So conservatives who don’t want the jab won’t vote and then there is perpetual tyranny in the US. You better hope the US doesn’t go to war because that will ensure your enslavement to a tyrannical government. It will be a starting domino. Connect the dots. President Putin is one of the sane leaders in the world, probably the top sane leader in the world, outside of President Trump who was ousted by a coup in the 2020 election when a stolen election that no one stood up against (except Mike Lindell of mypillow and a few others, certainly not Republicans). President Putin and Russia are not warmongers like those of the military industrial complex, or government, or banking, in the United States who will lose their gravy train if there is no war. Do not egg Russia onto war to your own destruction.
