I think that Prince Charles has a good point. I think that there is a good comparison when you compare Hitler’ Germany with Putin’ Russia as his comment relates to the annexation of half of Poland and a good chunk of Czechoslovakia in 1939 and Russia’ annexation of Crimea in 2014. Both leaders took advantage of their countries strength in order to expand their own empires!

Charles’s off-the-cuff comment is a trivial matter compared with Putin’s cold-blooded suppression of minorities.Get a grip!
