Current Affairs Ukraine

Will a cease fire mean Russian troops pulling out Ukraine any time soon? I wouldn't suspect the odds are great, and especially for Zelensky and co.

Zelensky regardless of surrendering will probably end up dying with a suspicious amount of Polonium-210 in his system

The whole civilised world should stand with Ukraine. It doesn't matter who is saying what, there is no 100% truth in the war, of course.

But the fault is always on aggressor's side. ALWAYS. Russia is the aggresor here and Putin's regime has innocent blood of civilians on its hands.

Russia is a country with so many possibilities, resources, fantastic sportsmen, genious art (I think that Russian cinematography beats Hollywood comfortably and probably is the best in the world), great scientists and many others. They should be flying to the Mars or looking for a cure for the cancer. And instead Russian politics has always been barbaric, offensive and inhuman. Instead of focusing on growth and development they choose the path of war and destruction. Putin will be remembered as a war criminal when he is gone.

What a utter waste of potential.

Indeed….

Is Kev alright? His tone is concerning here.

He’s a Russian mole. Am pretty sure kevlenko needs a ceasefire before his blood pressure causes a stroke.

Zelensky won’t make it out of Belarus with a pulse.

Understand that... But it's cowering to the bully isn't it. And I don't really see the comparisons others are making to Mexico etc because NATO isn't just about America. Russia had the chance to join it and declined. There are also four countries that share borders or very close proximity to Russia that are already in NATO.

I think we really need to move past this idea that making compromises is some sort of cowardice, when it's actually just part and parcel of being a mature, grown up.

It dominated the Brexit debacle. In life you have to compromise. You dont always get everything you want, but you can at least avert a bloodbath.

Going back to Donbas and Lughansk regions - no chance of any ceasefire or Russian withdrawal without formal recognition since Russia have designated them as independent states

 

[catcherintherye]

If Russia have 190,000 troops there, why do they need another 200 from Syria?

I would imagine they want to pay back the debt to Russia, who helped them defeat the ISIS/Al Queda terrorists in their country.

 

[PhilM]

This aspect may shine a different type of light on what's happening now: maybe Russia is as open to discussion as Kyiv is.
