Russia fired missiles into Kyiv while the head of the UN visited the city...This was a warning...

 via Business Insider

Ukrainian officials said Russia fired missiles into Kyiv on Thursday — as United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres visited the capital city to meet with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. 

Two missiles hit Kyiv's Shevchenkivsky District, the Kyiv Independent reported, adding that there were no air raid sirens at the time of the strike. 

"Russia [struck] Kyiv with cruise missiles right when [Guterres] and Bulgarian PM [Kiril Petkov] visit our capital," Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba wrote in a tweet. 

Mykhailo Podolyak, Zelenskyy's top advisor, said the strikes hit downtown Kyiv during Guterres' official visit.

This is pure guesswork on my part.  I have nothing to base it on, its just my feelings.

I think this was a warning to other leaders of the EU/US/NATO. I believe the message was that visits will no longer be tolerated.

Think about it.

Many here thought that I was full of shit for raging when the Ukrainians let it leak that our SecDef &SecState were headed there to meet with Zelensky.

The thinking?

Boris Johnson went and it was no big deal so why couldn't they.

This is why.

The Russians showed restraint.  They could have easily bombarded that city and by the rules of war they would have been justified.  Ukraine is a war zone.  Heads of state are on the menu and so are their staff.

I mean that's why they're supposedly keeping Zelensky's location secret right?

I say again.  We need better than the ineffective UN.  We definitely need better than our so called SecState.  That dude is in over his head and the only place he looks comfortable is at a cocktail party.

There has to be a nation that can send diplomats to take the edge off this thing.

All eyes are focused on Ukraine but the world is burning.  The world's economy is headed toward ruin and that alone will lead to even more war.

Our window of opportunity is starting to close, and close quick.
