‘NATO should stand agency over Vladimir Putin who treats peace like weak point’
“NATO must stand united, strengthen defences and keep backing Ukraine – because if Putin is not stopped, other European nations will be next”
Voice of the Mirror has its say…
Vladimir Putin’s war machine has once again shown Europe exactly what it is dealing with.
A Russian drone smashing into homes in Romania is no “accident” to be brushed aside with Kremlin shrugs. It is the latest reminder that Putin’s brutality and recklessness stretch beyond Ukraine’s borders.
For four years, Europe has watched Russian missiles, drones and bombs terrorise civilians while the Kremlin peddles lies and intimidation. Now, NATO territory itself has been hit, with innocent Romanian families forced from their homes and civilians injured because of Moscow’s aggression.
Putin thrives on fear, instability and testing the resolve of democratic nations. Every weak response only encourages him further.
Europe cannot afford complacency with a despot who treats international law like an inconvenience and peace like a weakness. NATO must stand united, strengthen defences and keep backing Ukraine. Because if Putin is not stopped, other European nations will be next.
Time for truth
Nigel Farage has spent years playing the victim while demanding straight answers from everybody else. Yet when the spotlight swings onto him, the fog suddenly rolls in.
The Reform UK leader claims Kremlin-backed hackers raided his phone and exposed details of his controversial £5million gift. It is an extraordinary allegation with huge implications for British democracy and national security.
So why has it taken Labour to report the allegation to get a clear answer about whether police or the security services have been informed?
Party leaders cannot toss claims of Russian interference into public life like confetti and then hide behind vague statements when scrutiny arrives. Britain needs politicians who treat national security seriously, not headline-chasing acts forever casting themselves in a political thriller.
Damn & blast
Jeff Bezos called it a “very rough day” after his giant rocket exploded in a spectacular fireball on the launch pad.
Most people’s bad days involve spilt tea or missed trains, not £74million spacecraft detonating in Florida. Thankfully, nobody was hurt.
Even so, it turns out money really cannot buy lift-off every time.
