Let the Ukranian President just give them Donbass which is made up of ethnic Russians and end all of this.

He is also a war criminal.


Crimea opted to join their motherland in 2014 and the Ukranians are still saying No. No to what exactly?



Besides I have seen videos of Ukranians brutally murdering Russians, or leaving them to die in the cold so they are equally (or more) wicked.
It dawns on me that some of Russia's murders during their retreat might be as a pain for all Ukranians did to them.

10,000 dead soldiers isn't 300 soldiers. undecided That's wicked for people that weren't targeting you (civilians).
blablabla. Keep bleating. Most wicked soul that is justifying death for death.
Wish you were an Ukrainian living in Mauripol make Russians use you do suya.

At least they have bought their freedom to join NATO. I
'm pretty sure they knew it wasn't going to be easy to join NATO. I'm pretty sure they knew that it was how to cost them some price. I guess they must have felt that they were equal to the payment of that price, that's why they went to war with Russia the first place. They deserve all these destructions because they called for it. Russia is not done with them yet. As long as Putin is still the President, I have a feeling that Russia is still not done with them yet.

Still not an invasion.

Still not the same scenario.

Russia wanted to waste all of Ukraine because Putin has made no bones of saying every time that Ukraine is not a real country and does not deserve to exist.

The only reason he made a pivot towards the Donbas is because he's colossally lost the war.

It's a face saving mechanism to say he's concentrating on only the eastern parts.

Besides, Mariupol is largely Russian speaking...yet he laid it to waste. Hypocritical, much?

Russia will rather level Ukraine than allow her become a member of NATO.

NATO was created as a threat to the existence of Russia. And Ukraine want to be a member, thereby bringing the organization to Russian borders. No reasonable leader will accept that.

If NATO had dropped the Anti Russia agenda, why did the organization blocked Russian membership bid?

Every country will do what's best for her. Russia is doing hers.

During the first world war, it took a telegraph from Zimmerman asking Mexico to support Germany in the war with a promise to return Texas, New Mexico and California back to the Mexicans as benefit for assisting the Germans. A week later, America was in the war, fighting the Germans to end it. That's how important a neighbor is. Mind you US had lost many merchant ships and american lives to German aerial bombings but all of that will not bring US into the war till the telegraph was leaked.

If you say, that was not enough for Russia, the soviet Union in the 60s, tried to establish a nuclear site in Cuba. Being a communist country like USSR, america sponsored a guerilla warfare that removed the pro soviet leader and placed Cuba under sanctions till today.

We can say all we like, Russia will do anything to preserve herself, likewise America. Ukraine is the dumb loser here. Where two elephants fights, the grasses bears the brunts.

America and uk should back off as well if then can not support with military action. They are keeping their country safe and scared to interfere but yet they are pushing Ukraine to continue. The sanctions are not working. Putin knows all this before the war.
No continue supporting Ukraine. People like you fail to learn from history thus, making the same mistake over and over again. Tell me how many countries has US and their allies invaded directly or indirectly that remained the same? They pushed Ukraine into this war knowing they are not going to help Ukraine where or matters most, now Ukraine is destroyed and in ruins and there is no assurance they are going to help in rebuilding Ukraine. Meanwhile major European countries are still buying Russian gas.

Just as i don't support this Putin war,

But Zelensky should know that world pity would not bring these innocents souls that the Demonic Russian soldiers have killed.

A simple diplomatic solution in late 2021 & early 2022, would have avoided all these..

instead, u were dancing to western media propaganda that NATO will come to recuse Ukraine..

Today, while Ukraine's people & their cities (heritages) are being destroyed, the so-called western world is busy hosting Oscars, watching premiers leagues, UEFA, etc..

what a pity... Political correctness is not always Correct but Political smartness will always put one on top.

Lol. How do you know that? You're Putin's confidant or you're living in his head?

The Russians are retreating and the Ukrainians recapturing towns. You only retreat when you're facing defeat. Putin did not go in to lose and that's what's happening now.

Did the Russians retreat in 2014? Are they not still holding on to Crimea?

Sadly, the Russian Ukrainians are pissed off as they are being shelled by Russia. Mariupol is part of Russified Ukraine and Russia has left their city looking like scenes from "Saving Private Ryan" or "Fury".

Russia was never under any threat after the fall of the Berlin wall and the end of the cold war.

Glasnost and perestroika were the two policy thrusts that aligned Russia with the global economic and political zeitgeist....it took a tyrant like Putin, who's obsessed with the "mighty" USSR, to scare all his neighbors towards the umbrella of NATO, with his saber rattling and fervor for a czarist mother Russia.

All of Putin's actions and militarization and his statements about the fall of the USSR being the greatest political debacle of the century scared his smaller neighbors because they knew where his ideology and militarization was headed.

Why won't they seek refuge in NATO when their sizable neighbor is talking tough about a neo-USSR ruled by a despot?

Was this not history repeating itself along the lines of Nazi Germany and stalinist Russia?

Besides, the western powers were in no hurry to grant Ukraine entry into NATO in order to keep Putin appeased.

Stop buying into this revisionist fallacy of history that NATO motivated Putin: the man had always harbored delusions of grandeur, being so power drunk, and always hated and distrusted the west as vestiges of his KGB and nationalistic persuasions.

Putin was bent on reshaping the world no matter whether Ukraine entered NATO or not.

Money to rebuild is already on the table and Putin sef go add his own frozen money by the West to join...

At the end of the day, Ukraine beat back back to dumbas wheelie started from, he lost tens of thousands of troops, he lost countless tanks, trucks and supply vehicles, he lost fighter jets and helicopters.

Today, he won nothing but a sad and pathetic status of a paraih state in the same league like North Korea, Russia is banned and isolated from world Social and Cultural events, no more FIFA games, no more Olympics participating, nothing, zero global economic and financial participation, Putin himself one day is destined to by placed on trial for war crimes.

More countries are lining up to join NATO and will join NATO, Europe and the West increased their military budgets, the west will do what they've been unable to do, militarize and fortify Ukrainians defences with serious defensive weapons, air defense systems and staging more weapons in neighboring NATO states for rapid shipment to Ukraine to prevent dumb ass Poutin from ever venturing into Ukraine or anywhere in the West.

What kind of modern day military intentionally slaughter civilians, indiscriminately target civilians, bomb hospitals, rape women, loot silly and pointless things like washers and dryers, stealing food and basic stuff.

Europe and the West are already securing other sources of gas so Russian is in deep economic apocalypse.

Small Ukraine that did not have any serious military 5 weeks ago clearly exposed the Russian military as a very weak, incompetent, poorly trained, demoralized poorly equiped, chaotic, logistically lousy and lazy and grossly unprofessional.

This adventure for Putin and Russia will go down in history as the lousiest military disaster.

Ukraine gained respect worldwide as brave people, they inspired other countries never to run and surrender their land to brutal dictators and evil people.

Ukraine stood up and exposed the myth about Russia as a superpower which obviously Russia is not as we can all see.


Hats off to the Ukrainians.
