you think symbolic nonsense like this deserves a reaction?

@MrDosonhai Putin lets the actions speak for themselves, just as he did when he prevailed in Chechnya, Georgia and Syria.

@ionnanskilliorus6877 and I'm not Putin
2
@RodneyWolfram dunbass or Donbass?
2
@versuch8239 nah, not really. like all politicians, Putin plays to the crowds, but in essence he is a man of substance and vision. defeating the sanctions and victories in Chechnya, Syria, Georgia and Transnistria have shown that.
2
@uA-gy8wk the meeting becomes a little less "symbolic" when Biden breaks the bad news..."we're out of ammo, you burned through it all, you have until June to win this, otherwise, buenas noches"
2
@A.Martin maybe. an extra round of Iranian drones raining down on Kiev as a welcome gift, maybe.
2
@MrDosonhai no, I don't remember, so I am sure you can provide me with the full quote, context and date spoken. "Ghost of Kiev is real", remember that one? Zelensky's words and actions often go in opposite directions.
2
@MrDosonhai yes, prevail, check out how things are now in Chechnya, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Syria, Transnistria. prevail.
2
@MrDosonhai I never knew Zelensky ever mentioned running to the U.S. as an option! Speaks volumes that a Churchillian war time leader would ever mention such an option! As I said, I'm sure you can provide me with the source, full quote, context and date of Putin's "never invade Ukraine" statement.
2
@MrDosonhai Zelensky also said it was Russian missiles that killed two people in Poland, before the West told Zelensky to stop lying.

@versuch8239 keep laughing, it will help you deal with your state of denial, tonight.

@unclejoeoakland and I'll wager a dozen funerals for the dozen F16 pilots are not far behind. Stuff that in your pipe and smoke it. Russian air defences ain't like Iraq's or Afghanistan's! Get ready to enter the ring with the big boys. Get those NATO body bags ready.

@username-t1x those hundreds of Ukrainian cannon fodder that will get massacred today might disagree with you.

@ionnanskilliorus6877 that's right, a semi retired British language teacher currently in Spain works for Putin. You are so deluded.
1
@ionnanskilliorus6877 just shows how wrong you are. you assumed I am some kind of employee of the Kremlin, and got that wrong. now you assume I suffer from cognitive dissonance, and got that wrong. chances are, you have not lived and worked in Ukraine, as I have, and got it all wrong about what is happening in Ukraine.

@MrDosonhai prevail means to win militarily and impose conditions upon the defeated.
1
@viveviveka2651 am always happy to be corrected. you tell me the military conflict that Putin lost.
1
@username-t1x to whom? to those dying on the front lines every day?
1
@cameron6770 it was Putin who gave Biden permission to do so!
1
@viveviveka2651 not only do I believe the US and allies have failed to ramp up production, I believe the US and allies are incapable of ramping up production. there is no on/off switch for complex devices like missiles. it will take years of planning, ordering, training, a whole new infrastructure needs to be established.

more symbolic bs. unless Biden has come to install an air defence system for Ukraine that actually works, it is a waste of everyone's time. Ukraine's teenage cannon fodder crippled and wounded in Bakhmut probably not too bothered by this pantomime. Poor show, too, from the reporter gal stuttering, umming and ahhing her way through a basic report. DW at its worst here.
1
@de6212 who says Russia is trying to take Bakhmut? the aim is to demilitarize Ukraine.
