@thegirlscout I don't know, I think it was fatherland day in Russia yesterday, they might use the terms interchangeably. My knowledge is abysmal really.
I have mad respect for everyone in the armed forces right now And every day in fact leaving your families knowing you may not come back to them alive to keep others safe its times like this it makes you realise how much you appricate them

Is there a correct way to pronounce Kyiv? On radio 4 they're saying it several different ways - even the same presentors are switching to different pronunciations.
No panic buying of fuel or food where I am in kent at the moment, thankfully.

Shes right in the heart of it, terrifying. I wonder will we see pictures when they get there, they'll want that beautiful cathedral in the background, won't they. Sorry, I know nothing about this, have never watched anything like this unfold before.
The beeb is usually on these things with issuing guidance, at the moment the R4 presenters seem like they're trying to spread it evenly out over the 4-5 different pronunciations and give them all equal air time.
Have they shut down the pronunciation department as part of cost cutting? I do remember back in the day chris moyles would call them up.
The British handed over control of Hong Kong to China in 1997 with the promise that China would retain the area's autonomy. China lied. Ukraine handed over its nukes in 1994, with American support, in exchange for a promise from Russia not to invade. Russia lied.
Only thing to do is mobilise the NATO troops and place them on the borders surrounding Ukraine there's 3 million troops in NATO Russian military has about 900k total the only thing they will respond to is a show of strength.
I am old enough to remember the Cuba missile crisis. It was genuinely terrifying. I am worried today but I don’t think that anyone anywhere would risk a world war. I hope.
