Yes: neither side value life: half a million between them thrown into grave yards. But if they both continue that policy then Russia exhaust Ukraine.

Its simple enough to understand, I think.
The Ukrainian people don't want to be a part of Russia, and are dying for it. The blame for losses of life on both sides is down to Putin only.

No mate.

It's down to two power blocs: Russia-China v NATO.

The Ukrainian Government are puppets of the latter and have been doing their bidding since 2012.

Its time to put all these infantile binary opposites of good v bad in the bin.

It is binary when it comes to the discussion of the Ukraninan people defending their land till the last. They do not want Russia to take their country. The politics higher up are for another matter. The ground level really is that simple, they are dying for their homeland.
 
Russian forces are intensifying their drive to capture Avdiivka, trying to advance on all sides, according to Vitaliy Barabash, the head of Avdiivka’s military administration. “The Russians have opened up two more sectors from which they have begun making assaults – in the direction of Donetsk … and in the so-called industrial zone. The enemy is attempting to storm the city from all directions.”


Looks like massive snowfalls are going to freeze this war soon enough until the Spring at least.

Hopefully diplomacy has started by then to bring the mess to an end.
 

I think it's fair to say that this piece in Reuters underlines the level of demoralisation amongst Ukrainians over the conduct of the war and whether they are being led by the right people.

One stand out stat: Trust in the government has tumbled from 74% in 2022 to 39% now.

Matters of illegal 'recruitment' of fighting age men and corruption in avoiding conscription by those who can afford to do that, as well as lack of rotation of men to the front and a general feeling of funds being seized and pocketed by military chiefs and politicians for their own accounts is tipping this war against Ukraine on the home front. And the Russian barrage to come this winter will weaken their resolve even further.

All down to your man. Your endless trolling of the situation the people of Ukraine find themselves in and the pretence that it is somehow not down to Vlad is galling mate - really tiresome.
 
China are going to take what they
can Russia piece by piece.

That has always been their plan. I wonder if the two numpties will blame Vlad for trying to defend his country when Xi starts his Special Military Operation to take the bits he wants?
 
Ukraine have no ammo, no plan, no hope.



What remains of Ukraine is no longer a viable state. As it stands now it will takes generations to recover and that will depend on all the exiles returning.



There's a need for a negotiated settlement. Maybe the ball will get rolling during the OSCE meeting.
