Translators have explained to Ukraine that the verbal support offered by their NATO allies, should be taken with a massive pinch of salt and a distint hint of irony. Explained one linguist: 'It's like when the Man Utd board give you a vote of confidence, it's not meant to be taken literally.
'Everyone knows when Keir Starmer makes a pledge or promise, then he is definitely going to do the exact opposite. Just ask his wife.
'When NATO says it will protect your borders, it means it will steal your land. When it says it will protect your democracy, it will steal your land. When it says it will steal your land, it means it's going to ignore the land because its after the oil underneath it.
'If it's support you want, buy a hernia belt.'
