Let them fend for themselves? Dammit, the Russian government doesn’t even try to cover up its involvement. It’s had soldiers captured by the Ukrainians well inside Ukraine, it’s provided artillery support to the rebels from inside Russia, serving Russian soldiers have been killed in Ukraine, Russian army vehicles have been filmed driving through Ukraine, Russia’s admitted that soldiers have fought in Ukraine but said they were ‘on holiday’ at the time – an excuse so thin it’s obvious it wasn’t even expected to be believed . . . I could go on. There’s a lot more.

Russia’s been right in it from the start, & hasn’t shown any sign of caring if the world knows.

So what? Brits have been fighting on the ukrainian side too, so cry me a river.
