He no longer popular among military and strong politicians in Russia, even to go out becoming difficult on daily basis.

I posted a story, how military are planning for his assassination and how he has increased his security around him, but mod refused to post it to front page.
Nairaland is sometimes selective in its choices of what should take the front page.

A senseless war. He has only pushed Ukraine to remarkably advance their military drone technology.

What weird way?

If the word ended today and status quo maintained, who won?

Putin already captured strategic points he wanted. They only holding on and being defensive to protect those areas, and not seeking more! Ukraine is the one trying to reclaim!

If the war ends today, the map of Ukraine will never remain the same!
You really do have a WEIRD way of reasoning. Read below what Putin's initial objectives were according to BBC and Brookings Institution

So Russia's objectives/war aims in all this was to "capture" some Ukrainian land?

Everyone has an initial objective pre war which never go as planned!

I asked you previously and will ask again! Of the world ended this minute, who won and who lost!

I don’t expect you to answer straight cos it will kill all of your previous agreement!

Can you just answer by saying Ukraine or Russia?

You think people like Putin care about how many soldiers die? He has captured what he wanted months ago and just holding grounds.

If the war ends today and status quo maintained, who lost and who won?

Trump strangled Ukraine and EU tried but could not match up.
Lamentation of a defeated man, I taught he gave Keiv 2 weeks before the war to surrender

He's tired of the war.

He couldn't get to zelensky in more than three years, but Trump killed the ayatollah and his lineages in less than one week. grin grin

Trump is a badoo.
Taking out zelensky was never part of his targets.

They had assessments and even if they did not achieve all, they achieved little.

Why you cannot answer the initial question that, if the war ended this minute, who won?

Nobody win in a war. They both lost.
Russia will feel the impact of this war for decades and so also will Ukraine.

Putin never made that statement is all beer parlour news you stated.

The fact available to me and you is that, if the war should end to today, a part of Ukraine is gone!

The geographical map will never remain the same.

At some point you made a point, but Russia has won territories to compensate for those fallen soldiers.

What does Ukraine have? NOTHING!

Call it delusion, the reality you cannot call delusion!

Now countries are optimizing military budget and what is the cause? Kuwait or Qatar!

Did you see the statement of your US defense secretary with regards to optimizing military budgets?

Only you is drowned in emotions. Nations have learnt and moved on. They now ONE $2 million dollar missile is not just worth it!

Floating military platforms now old generation! Just readily available floating targets.

No matter the side you take, always appreciate Iran for redefining warfare! Not that you support them, but appreciating their innovations.
Re: Putin Thinks Ukraine Conflict 'Coming To An End' by gigabyte13: 8:19pm On May 10
No parade of military hardwares for fear that Ukraine might attack them.....
E don reach like that.
Last last, Russia is acknowledging Ukraine capacity to strike any part of Russia.
Wthlow na small thing but if e hold you for any part of your body, the whole body go feel am.

Major delusion indeed. Just compare to Ukraine, Iran is practically finished. US can blockade them and they CAN'T even fire anything that'd hit US ship or their airplanes. Harassing ships trying to cross Hormuz and dumping oil in the Gulf are mere criminal acts that any country can perform

Do you know the meaning of "primary". US primary aim in Iran is have them give up enriching uranium. Putin aim was overthrow of Zelinski and bringing Ukraine into Russia's influence. Instead the opposite happened. Ukraine is even more aligned with the West

No mind them......All Putin refineries are burning. These people supporting Putin should be ashamed of themselves that this war drag on for long. Initially Zelenky army was not allowed to fire missile within Ukrainian territory occupied by Russian army talk less of hitting Russia now the tide is changing because Ukraine is now able to attack Russia economy hub and is affecting Putin seriously.

Lol....lies.

His main aim was to stop Ukraine from joining NATO and to liberate the donbas region which has been achieved so far......the rest are to solidify the primary aims...for instance if Zelensky is removed a pro Russian or neutral govt will immediately end the war.

The reason Ukraine will not stop the war because they are hitting Russia hard so Putin must leave Ukrainian land.

Well seems like ur boy Zelensky has received enough spanking and now you're trying to show him mercy after the west(especially the US) have as good as thrown him under the bus....... nonetheless ,the end to this conflict will still depend on if Zelensky has borrowed common sense and drop stubbornness aside or he still thinks he has a chance at winning this war even when those that pushed him to start it are already losing steam and abandoning him. cool .
Sorry for you.....
You now lie openly on Net ...that Ukraine started the war ....fear God small
And despite your putting have destroyed substantial part of Ukraine.....your Putin is getting hit also by Ukraine drones in Russia oil installations....so Putin spank himself

After you've succeeded in destroying thousands of your brothers and sisters properties and lives over mere western interference. Shame on you.

I think he soon realises the fact that the whole world doesn't even care anymore
Thank you...
Putin woke up killed his own brothers and sisters recklessly over nothing and some shameless guys on Nairaland blame Zelensky for it .....

This is not something that happened decades ago na. So u can't fool anybody
Do you recall that Putin amassed unbelievable amount of troops at Ukraine border and they started marching towards Kyiv with the aim to arrive within a week, with a list of those to be arrested. It was not meant to be a war or even a months-long conflict.
It was NOT about Donbass. That was 2014
The commenter below replies u well.
Re: Putin Thinks Ukraine Conflict 'Coming To An End' by Guestmale: 9:33pm On May 10
Why do you want to stop, having fought a small Ukraine for over four years without any tangible breakthrough you're shamefully walking away. You started a war you couldn't finish what a shame.
