I've just read that now.

I thought they were bogus quotes, but there they are.

Unreal what this feller is now saying. Basically "we have millions of people across western Europe and if you stop backing us they'll be turned against your societies".

The 'kin nerve of this feller after the reception Ukrainians have been given.

I bet those Ukrainian refugees are horrified at his words - they place them in danger of suspicion and rejection and possibly endanger them.

Rather unfortunate interview.

You are using some random maps to suggest they are planning a takeover of an area that is an actual ally and a nuclear armed ally at that . Nonsense.

They aren't random maps they were deliberately changed by the Chinese government. China and Russia aren't allies, Russia will be dropped the second china aren't massively benefiting from the arrangement.

Genuinely, they might decide that Russia is likely to be a safer place to escape the war to.

Imagine being a Ukrainian national and living in Belgium or Poland or Germany and you were settled there reading that your president is turning you into an enemy of the state you're now happily domiciled in.

That's what this clown Zelensky has done.

That's the bigger point here: the Ukrainian leadership are unravelling. They're fighting amongst themselves about how to communicate with the west and how they should proescute the war, and all the while the corruption scandal that has hit them is going to get worse as the west demands more bang for its buck.

Zelensky and his regime have to go. They are standing in the way of a peace deal IMO. Diplomatically they are being more and more isolated and they're hitting out at that and creating enemies. The heart of it all is the counter offensive's failure of course.

This was interesting:

...a long war of attrition would mean a fork in the road for Ukraine. The country would lose even more people, both on the front lines and to emigration. It would require a “totally militarised economy”. The government would have to put that prospect to its citizens, Mr Zelensky says, without specifying how; a new social contract could not be the decision of one person. Almost 19 months into the war, the president says he is “morally” ready for the switch. But he will only broach the idea with his people if the weakness in the eyes of his Western backers becomes a “trend”.

Are you sure it was a genuine article?

The original source was from the Hindustan Times / yet if you look on their Twitter feed there is no mention of that article.

Looks very suspect
