Ukraine's president is dumb.
He should have totally avoided the war. Their economy would still be intact, the cities wouldn't have been destroyed, no one would have been killed. And we won't even have to discuss this topic today.
The major reason Russia invaded was because Ukraine wanted to join NATO and EU. The two bodies have refused to accept them, and the war has even made it worse. You need a strong military to be part of NATO, Russia has destroyed most of it. You need a stable economy to be part of EU, Russia has also destroyed that. What has happened to Ukraine now, they won't recover from it in 20 years.
Even if Ukraine wins this war, which is highly unlikely, they have lost too much already.
Let's hope Russia did not fail in the War... If not, Ukraine will be rebuild with Reparation from all the unborn child in Russia even with their falling currency and sinking economy so.

Ukraine has long list

Yes they want to join NATO ?
They already allied with USA (bio labs)?
Oppression dombass Russia minority?
Accommodating neo Nazi militia?
Refusing to remain neutral?
Have intentions for building nukes again ?


The list long
So, you swallowed all Putin's rhetorics hook, line and sinker?

Yes they want to join NATO ?-------They haven't yet joined NATO: this war made them submit their application
They already allied with USA (bio labs)?------Where is the Lab?
Oppression dombass Russia minority? --------Who sponsored the Donbass separatists?
Accommodating neo Nazi militia? ----------I'm sure you don't know what this means
Refusing to remain neutral?---------After Russia seized Crimea and sponsored the Dombas separatists?
Have intentions for building nukes again ?--------Where did you get this? Russia took ALL the Nuclear arsenal from Ukraine

Kyiv, Ukraine – Ukraine civilian fighters and residents in the capital are preparing for a major attack as Russian forces surround the city with troops and artillery just kilometres away.

There are civilian fighters who are ready to attack Russian troops but when they are killed by Russian troops, they are not considered as fighters but civilians only.

Funny set of people,brace up you are about to witness another round of ambush on the Russia forces.
Just imagine Putin fanboys hating America, please if truly you hate them then tell your government to stop borrowing money from USA and IMF,go to Russia to get funds instead.
Ingrates,if not for USA and China I wonder where Africa especially Nigeria would have been by now, without borrowing from the said west they can't survive nothing.
USA is not in any way responsible for Nigeria's problem,better understand that now,play your role in developing Nigeria you say no,you rather hate on West all day.
But you people said they were burnt on the way now,how did they get to Kiev?

EU has already said they have gotten to the height of sanctions against Russia. It can't be worse for Russia than this.
Because of same sanctions, USA has the highest inflation rate in 40 years, prices of crude oil and gas have record highs. Russia, being the supplier of almost half of crude oil, coal and gas to the whole of Europe, cannot go down even if they lose the war. The only problem they can have is societal breakdown that would oust Putin and bring in someone that can't handle international politics like he did.
EU is now trying hard to get rid of Russian fossil fuels but the only costless option is renewable energy, which is like doing away with carbon fuels totally, and it's decades away.

Croatia’s Prime Minister slams the EU and NATO for its slow reaction to the Ukrainian drone strike:

“This was a pure and clear threat and both NATO and the EU should have reacted because a Ukrainian TU-141 drone crashed in Croatian capital Zagreb after it flew for almost 2 hrs inside NATO airspace”
NATO defence system have been called to question by Hungary and Croatia PMs.

All Russia need to do now is link main Russia to Russia troops stationed in Modolva hereby making Ukraine landlocked

Of course not. Civilian deaths refers to those who are not combatants in any way.
Don't mind that guy he is just decidedly dishonest. The children's hospital, the residential buildings, the killing of fleeing refugees are they all fighting the Russians before Putin the murderer killed them. I keep saying it that even Satan has supporters

The objective of this operation was never about Kiev. The pressure on Kiev is to force a political concession from the Ukrainian government with regards to Crimea and the Donbass.

The real objectives in no particular order seem to be

1. Liberation of the Donbass up their original borders
2. Demilitarization and Degrading of Ukraine's military capabilities.
3. Relieving the Siege of Crimea - through unblocking of the canals and linking it to the Dnieper river. That's why they took Kherson city.
4. Creating a land bridge from Crimea through Donbass all the way to Rostov in Russia. This is why conquering Mariupol is key.
5. Extending the land bridge westwards from Crimea to Odessa by conquering Mykolaiv, which was a major shipyard in Soviet times. Doing this will effectively deprive Ukraine from access to the sea and make it a landlocked country.
6. Destroy the Azov Battalion in Donbass. They are all now in Mariupol. Those in Volnovakha have been killed or surrendered.
7. Capture all Nuclear powerplants in Ukraine - to prevent Ukraine from having access to materials to create weapons.

All of the above objectives are largely being achieved albeit slowly due to resistance.

The attacks on Kharkiv, Sumy, Chernihiv and other cities in the North are to tie down Ukrainian forces and prevent them from coming to the South.
Very good strategic goals by the Russia military.

No wonder the attacks are slow but they are achieving it one after the other. The Eastern Ukraine is where the real battleground because it has access to the black sea.

If Russia achieve these goals. Ukraine is finished.

You guys lack the ability to think critically and that's why USA easily fools you. Let me ask you a simple question. Before the staged coup in 2014, did Ukraine want to join NATO?

Few days ago I was trying to let you know, Russia gameplan is to encircle before bombardment,now they have surrounded Kiev,I remember you keep mentioning Kiev that day...see I'm neutral in this case and I don't support the war but what I was fighting against that day is low coverage and any small thing they'll portray like Ukraine is winning the conflict, they're not. And the worst part is Ukraine president shouldn't have allowed that country to go to war with Russia,he overestimated the help from the West, he'll flee that city in the coming weeks. I'd advise you follow up the conflict elsewhere online. And I do hope they found peace because people are dying in their numbers.
