how I wish we were back in 2000s when the biggest concern is what grade you will get in school and whether your parents will let you go out with your friends after that , instead of reading these things every day.
for Ukrainian government it is desperate indeed. for me? minister of external propaganda Kuleba told me i’m a traitor a couple of days ago. so ugly as it is, i’ll just let it be.
More Russian meat to the slaughter.
Ukraine knows that Russian tactics mean that if there is a “breakthrough”, Russia will pour its soldiers in, even if it’s a shooting gallery
If David Axe writes it, it’s true. He is no russian asset, he is no doomer. He’s the only reason half the country reads Forbes at all.
Ukraine has lost, even CNN is calling for negotiations…

What about this… they let Russia funnel troops into this area and then pound them with long range missile strikes and artillery. If I was planning something, it would be a trap/gamble like this.
No problem just send more Ukrainians to border, and when they are dead make a wall of meat from their bodies. This solution will make Ukraine victorious.
Ukraine and the West need to be able to damage Russia’s infrastructure and industry, which is where their offensive power is coming from.
Time for the EU to step in
And people call me lazy… Is this close enough for anyone yet? Time to lift a finger yet? No? Unsurprising.
“Rushing”, took 25 km2 in two weeks.
Meanwhile, when Ukraine broke through at Kharkiv and took 8000 km2 in a week, that was a “tactical retreat”
Miss me with these opinion pieces
Russian is great
the article is a bit more melodramatic, if Russian have a breakthrough, they will only go few miles before they hit another good defense line, they are 2 positives for the Russians, one is that they will be to focus on another area and that an Ukrainian attack into Donetsk will be harder
Thanks for linking the article. That was a really fascinating, if terrifying read.
My country(US) withholding aid due to wanna be fascist, morons, religious zealots and deranged traitors in our midst has really put them behind the 8 ball even more than a typical country fighting a giant like Russia would already be.
I hope they can hold on a bit longer and the new aid is able to get to them in time to prevent any dramatic losses.
Hope the flow of aid will become more regular as well. It is becoming increasingly likely that Russia could invade NATO territory so the fall of Ukraine must be prevented at all cost- again was obvious to most since the start of the invasion but hopefully even the trumpified Republican Party will even acknowledge this going forward.
That great leader in green T-shirt should have negotiated when Ukraine was beating the shit out of Russia.
Russian here.
I’ll say this again (as I wrote about it many time) – I feel the world has been living in a “Ukraine is winning” bubble for the last year. Ukraine needed ten times more weapons a year ago, and everyone should have pushed for it.
Instead, everyone got placated.
Instead of looking at the situation realistically, most news articles (and the whole Reddit) were flooded with ridiculous one-sided takes about Ukrainian success here and there whilst completely ignoring what Russia was doing. My favourite example is r/CombatFootage, which to this day posts only Ukranian success tories. Talk about a one-sided picture.
And the same sentiment spread thoughout the population – why should we help Ukraine, or go to the streets demanding more help for Ukraine form our politicians, if it is doing well anyway?
Well, here we are now, sadly.
Any danger of politicians pushing for peace?
