Sir, – Russia, the size of the entire continent of South America, with one-third of that continent’s population, seeks more land. The method of the ruling elite in the land grab is to sacrifice Ukrainian and Russian people rather than simply turning off fuel supplies to both Ukraine and Europe and waiting for the penny to drop. They prefer money to human life, obviously.
Unfortunately for Russia, the ruling elite have set the country on a path to dissolution.
The sacrifice of Siberian and rural eastern Russians in preference to the well-connected citizens of Moscow and St Petersburg will bring about revolution from within. This time the elite will not find safety in the West. – Yours, etc,

A chara, – I was more than a little amused to hear the Taoiseach call for Russia to be suspended from the UN Security Council (News, September 23rd). By that reckoning, the five permanent members should all be suspended as all have blood on their hands. – Yours, etc,
