Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has said his country won’t accept peacekeeping forces from Nato countries in Ukraine under any peace deal, following high-level talks with the US in Saudi Arabia.

“Any appearance by armed forces under some other flag does not change anything. It is of course completely unacceptable,” he said. Russia and the US said they had agreed to appoint teams to start negotiating the end of the war.

“Today is the first step of a long and difficult journey, but an important one”, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said following the meeting.

        if they were to use those for any reason, it would be horrible suicide for them. They could destroy the society as we know it with them but they couldnt stop the retaliation which would be so vengeance fueled I dont want to even think about it.

          There was a “nato honest reaction” meme that showed nuclear strikes on every city in Russia with some heavy house music over it.

          I’ll see if I can dig it up.

          Found the animation the meme used but not the meme itself. Ah well.
