    It does, but it’s been their stance since forever…no arms supply, anywhere.

    Russia has nothing to do with it.

    The booting out of US bases I do agree with, 100%.

    They play no favourites with it. It’s naive, but it’s not necessarily what may go forward if they held minority government either, because they’d hold that with Labor.

    I’m not going to sour on the Greens for this position they’ve held forever. I don’t agree with it on Ukraine, but I don’t think wanting a position of peace is the worst thing a party could produce as well. And that’s what it is; not support for Russia or a tankie view.

      Of course we want peace.

      But when people like Putin attack war has come to you whether you want it or not.

      And the aim of Putin is genocide. He wants no negotiation. There is only fighting and a chance or death.

        I agree. I wish he didn’t hold or even voice it where Ukraine is concerned.

        It’s one step back from a hundred forward though, and the US can certainly fuck off. Plus he’s proven he has our back as citizens over abuses committed by Israel a few times.

        They care about us. That’s first for me.

      Well, given how the allies defeated Hitler by unilaterally disarming, holding hands and singing Kum-Ba-Ya until he was shamed out of his warmongering, it makes perfect sense.
