⚡Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has rejected proposals for a buffer zone between Ukrainian and Russian forces as part of a peace deal, arguing it does not reflect the realities of modern warfare.

"Only those who do not understand the technological state of today's war propose a buffer zone," he told reporters on Friday.

His comments followed a report suggesting European leaders were considering a 40km (25-mile) buffer zone as part of either a ceasefire or longer-term agreement.

The war in Ukraine has evolved into a conflict driven by drone technology, and Zelensky suggested a buffer zone of sorts already existed because of the threat of drone strikes close to the front line.


Buffer zones can create demilitarised zones between warring countries, such as North and South Korea, and physical boundaries such as the Iron Curtain - which separated the Soviet Union and the West following World War Two.

According to a report in Politico, European diplomats said the proposal among military and civilian officials was for a strip of land in Ukraine to be blocked off between the two forces.

But Zelensky said there already was an area on either side of the front line where heavy artillery was unable to operate because of the risk of drone-fire.

"Today, our heavy weapons are located at a distance of more than 10km from each other, because everything is hit by drones, " he said.

"This buffer - I call it a 'dead zone', some call it a 'grey zone' - it already exists."

How true is this ?
This changes everything, the ME has we know it might be about to change. I have always assumed the weapon grade uranium enrichment was for leverage during negotiations.
Iran should get ready to be sanctioned to Stone age if this is true.
I doubt the bill will pass though.
What makes you think China would ever allow such moves in the Security Council?

Israel needs to teach Turkey a lesson.

Can't wait to see both of them battle it out. I'm rooting for none of them.

Firstly, Both China and Russia didn't veto the UNSC sanctions on Iran in 2006. The political world has since been disjointed, we'll see how it goes this time.

In addition, China and Iran political roots spun from a shared opposition to the Soviets Union, even though both sides have continued to parrot the Non alliance mantra and yet both countries are not officially signatory to it. A flexibility that has allowed the Chinese to not only profit exponentially but also a loophole of absolution.

It's a pattern, let's see how it goes this time.

there is no amount of sanction the can send them to stone age, they're strategically located along international shipping route,they have also shown that anything you do to them they can relate,so those that are to implement it will have to be care and protect their own interest ,no new sanctions may be impose because of Russia and China may veto it

That's right but as you've said, a lot has changed since then. It would be nearly impossible to get that kind of consensus against Iran unless they openly conduct a nuclear test.

Iran is not a poor country like people believe but the crippling sanctions just makes it appear so.
Conducting a nuclear test would change the ME and the political reverberations would be felt across the globe.

ISRAELI carriers still crossing Turkey’s skies despite the “closure”

ISRAELI airlines say nothing has changed: their jets are still overflying Türkiye and no instructions to reroute have arrived. Arkia and Israir report regular operations, and Israel’s aviation authorities haven’t received an official notice of any airspace shutdown.

So what was “closed”? Turkey’s foreign minister told parliament that ports were barred to Israeli shipping and airspace was shut, but Ankara later clarified the ban targets official Israeli flights and any aircraft carrying weapons to Israel—not routine commercial overflights.

⚠️ WARNING - SENSITIVE CONTENT

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reveals never-before-seen footage of Hamas atrocities from the October 7 massacre.


Hamas terrorists murdered their father in front of them, raided their fridge for groceries, and then went on slaughtering innocent people.

These aren’t humans. They’re demons.

First it was hazebolla, how hazebolla had more sophisticated weapons than Hamas, How Hazebolla was a different breed, how hazebolla had the largest stockpiles of missiles for a non conventional military force, all that is history now, then enter the Houthis into the fray, they are currently feeling the heat, getting first hand experience the robust capabilities of the Jewish intelligence community, then came the head of the hydra Iran, they too were taken care off

Now they are clamouring for Turkey now, when will these people ever learn?? if Turkey croses the line, she will be put sadly to sleep

2006, china and Russia are very different from 2025 china and Russia...


2006, china was still growing,
Russia, still stabilizing its economy,
as such they could not atagonize the USA as much, then...


2006, USA was the sole hyper-superpower,
today, the world is multi-polar....


expect completely different outcomes this time around

The best way to easily spot a perennial liar is that their statements are always at odds. During operation spiderweb, this individual publicly stated that nothing that happens to Russia ever bothers him. Only Nairaland argument now, he wan crase and is declaring someone a sworn enemy.

What if everyone here were to be political leaders in a country like Nigeria, and we put our ideas into practice. It is obvious it is people like this that will snatch ballot boxes, kill people at elections, go to any length to force themselves on people.

And somehow, some people who are supposed to be human beings expect me to reason with debased iñdividüels like this.
