There is a reason why the Soviet Union, nor any nuclear power, never launched a first strike (nuclear attack) since Word War 2, despite all of the Cold War fears that the Soviets would. And it’s because you can't launch a first strike without being annihilated in the second strike. We need to understand that that some ppl. probably do not realizing the Russians like the Soviets can be trusted to act in the best self-interests...which mutually assured destruction is clearly against... and that the Soviets knew this since the 60s, if not the 50s. -- How is it any different today?
Even if Putin had the launch codes (he doesn't), or the ability to order a first strike by himself (he doesn't), even he would know the response is not going to be 'more sanctions'. -- The only way I could fathom Russia using a nuclear weapon in Ukraine, or against any enemy country, is the FSB had a foolproof plan to blame am ISIS terror cell, or rogue Chechen element, or claim the Ukrainians did it in a false-flag conspiracy to frame the Russians. -- But that would require a convincing story on how such an element got the nuclear weapon 'elsewhere', and eliminating everyone involved in the planning and execution. Whatever the case, Russia would need absolute plausible deniability. -- Here's my two cents, if there was really a way to use a nuclear weapon against an enemy without equal repercussions, Russia and China (and the US) would have figured it out a long time ago and did it already.
All NATO must do is take out Moscow and 5 -6 other city's to take out all of Russia.... But Russia must take out city's all over the planet from USA , CANADA ,FRANCE UK. ALL OF EUROPE and as far away as , AUSTRALIA and so on and so on ...
United Kingdom 225 warheads (submarine delivery systems new and up to date systems )
France 300 warheads
(submarine delivery systems new and up to date systems )
United States 7,315 warheads
(Mixed delivery systems new and up to date systems )
Russia 8,000 warheads
(Mixed delivery systems old mostly from the soviet union times NOT up to date systems )
RUSSIA IS AT DISADVANTAGE !!! and they know it Putin's regime knows its and that is why they will not use nukes they will hint and shout about nukes but that's it !!

Look at some facts about Russia and Russians !!
Ukraine only 17,3% ethnic Russian
Latvia only 26% ethnic Russian
Lithuania only 2,5% ethnic Russian
Estonia only 25,2 % ethnic Russian
Moldova only 5.8% ethnic Russian
Georgia only 1,5 % ethnic Russian
The % is not big in most of the nation's above but when it comes to how much this Russian scum demand of influence and how much they are screaming if you did not know the facts you will think they are almost the majority of the populations.
Take Lithuania as an good exs. in that country ethnic RuSSians are ONLY 2,5% that represents ONLY 50,460 people that are ethnic Russians and Russians are NOT the biggest ethnic group in-fact after Lithuanians it is Jews that take 2nd place as the biggest ethnic group in Lithuania with 7,6% of the population that represents 153,743 that is 3 times bigger than Russians and we don’t see the jews shouting out that their language (Hebrew) must have a special status in education, schools and that gov. documents must be written in Hebrew and TV and Radio must also be in Hebrew, street signs must be written Hebrew and that Hebrew must have special protected statues rights within Lithuania like
Russians are shouting about that they demand and want in Lithuania for their Russian language now do we …??
NO WE DONT !! becouse the Jewish population in Lithuania understand and respect that Lithuanians are the rightful owners and ppl. of Lithuania and they respect that fact..
SO THE QUESTION must be: Why is there always a problem with ethnic Russians all the time and why do they think they can demand special status for themselves and special status for Russian language who do they think they are ???

Putin will NOT use Nuclear weapons if he or when he invades Ukraine !!!
AND HERE IS WHY !!
1. If he did use Nuclear weapons then he will be not just nuking Ukraine but the fallout will hit Europe and the Baltic ’s the blast and fallout will also hit East Ukraine, Crimea, Poland Belorussia, and parts of Russia as well ect..
2. If he bombed Ukraine Putin will get the orthodox church against him for taking out Pecerska Lavra and make the Lavra into a nuclear wasteland for 1000 years the center of orthodox faith in the world and the far right orthodox is Putin's power base at home losing the orthodox church will be political suicide for Putin,,
3. How will it look like if he bombed Ukraine and the fallout of the blast will rain down onto Russians in Europe and in Ukraine millions of Russians live in the EU and Ukraine now and all of the Russian elite children in schools in western Europe, even Putin's own daughter and ex-wife live in Holland..
It is not like back in the day of the USSR when almost no Russian was living in Europe, and in the Baltic’s 20% are ethnic Russians in Ukraine, 17,6 % are ethnic Russians.. How can he claim to be defending Russians abroad if he is nuking them ??
4.If he did this than any friends he has in the international community will run for cover and distance themselves from him and RuSSia in every way they can, they will admit openly that Putin is a mad man, that needs to be taken out asap..even his good old buddy in Syria Assad and his good buddy in Minsk Mr Lukanhesko will not return his phone calls and run for cover.
5. Russia will become an international outcast and pariah state and diplomatic relations with the rest of the world will be over even including China, Venezuela, North Korea, Iran, and every other nut job country will cut off diplomatic relations with Russia !!..
6.USA and NATO and its allies and even most likely even Japan (and probably even China) will respond with an all-out attack on Russia and Putin and Moscow will only be left in history books just like the soviet union is now ...
7.Putin like Hitler and Stalin is a very smart calculated psychopath he is not crazy or insane and does not have a political death wish or any other type of death wish for that matter, he pushes as far as he feels he can and then backs down if he feels he gets pushed back, and if he doesn't get pushed back he continues until he does.

Let’s look at Ukraine’s disgraced former President, (Putins boy) Mr . Victor Yanukovych . After he fled to Putin with billions of stolen money the Kremlin-backed politician and his cronies (made away with $40 billion in state Ukrainian assets disappear ) the idea that he remained the legitimate head of the Ukrainian state, and therefore the manner in which he was replaced was automatically illegitimate, was commonplace. This line of thinking was heavily promulgated by his new host country for reasons that are self-evident. But was it right, or even logical, to claim this?
The legitimacy of the Yanukovych regime indeed began with a somewhat fair election, albeit an election in which the Ukrainian people had no good other choices at the time
(NOTE : Yanukovych was backed up by Moscow controlled media and corrupted elites that have dealings with the Kremlin and media inside Ukraine) .
But could that legitimacy go on unquestioned despite the blatant grand scale theft of state resources? No. Of course it could not.
Common hooligans and thugs were brought to Kyiv by the Yanukovych authorities to beat down on the students protesting Yanukovych authorities corruption (first recorded on Nov. 29, 2013when the protested was just a few days old) Yanukovych thugs mission was to terrorize the residents of the capital and beat down the students protesting Yanukovych . This act was completely in contradiction to Article 3 of the constitution that Yanukovych was elected to uphold. It was more than right to question Yanukovych’s legitimacy after this and the Ukrainian people did just that after seeing young students getting beat up by Yanukovych imported thugs in the streets of Kyiv, this act of state terrors, enraged the people even more and other joined the students protesting Yanukovych , now demanding his removal of office.
Lets take a closer look into legitimacy of Yanukovych Presidency..
Can the legitimacy of a ruling authority survive past the blatantly illegal adoption of laws designed to end democracy and create a dictatorship? No. Of course it cannot. Yet, this is what the Yanukovych controlled Party of Regions attempted to do on Jan. 16, 2014. Later analysis of images taken in parliament that while 235 MPs were declared to have voted for these “dictatorship” laws, only about half of this number of MPs were actually in the session hall when the vote was taken (by a show of hands – also illegal.)
After such clearly anti-democratic and dishonest actions, can anyone consider that authority to be legitimate? The actions were a breach of Article 5 of Ukraine’s constitution – something that Yanukovych was under oath to protect and uphold. But he failed to keep his word.
There were more violations of the constitution by Yanukovych, its supposed protector.
Article 27 of Ukraine’s constitution says that “Every person shall have the inalienable right to life. No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of life.” Yet Yuri Verbitsky, a 42 year old geologist from Lviv, was kidnapped, tortured, and murdered by forces belonging to the Yanukovych regime between Jan. 22 and Jan. 25 of 2014.
That Yanukovych had already lost any legitimacy by this point should be beyond question. Later, of course, came the deaths of many more people on Jan. 18 and then Jan. 20, after which Yanukovych fled to Russia, insisting his authority and position were still legitimate. Define legitimate.
The idea that legitimacy carries on from appointment without further question is a complete fallacy. It is something that we should refuse to accept. An elected leader most certainly can lose their legitimacy through illegal and/or unconstitutional, actions. The most recent public attempt at increasing the fog blurring the distinction between legitimately elected and legitimate comes from Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev. Bottom line, they are not the same, although it is easy to see why Russia’s ruling clan would seek to pretend that they are.

1.Ukraine should NOT give up territory, appeasement never works good eks. Neville Chamberlain and Hitler with the Munich Agreement land for peace , an absolute disgrace)
2. disarmed Russia disarm them to the level of some south Pacific island and give Ukriane all of Russians weapons and nukes
3. When they have lost NO restructuration should be done let them rot and its ppl suffer in their beloved Russik Mir they made their own bed let them sleep in it !!)
4. Russian should be forced to understand that all of their history is fake based own a myth connecting them to Kyiv Russ; and their historical connection to Ukriane capital Kyiv is a massive falsification of history made up by Catherine the grate (she was german not Russian by the way ) !! Russian are not even slavic they are descendants of Finnic nomadic tribes that assimilated with Mongolians back in the day Mongolians build Moscow as a trading post in 1200s and that is the origins of Moskovia )
6. We should NOT let them be able to re build there socially structors or military to western or even North Korea standards they should be frozen isolated and blacked from taking part in any intr, cooperation civilian, economical, political , educational , financial, trade , transport , and travel .. Should be locked down uncompromised isolated, harder than North Korea locked down its on ppl . totally frozen so it never ever raise up and can threaten anyone ever again----)

I SAY … Putin is just a symptom of the diseased psychotic nation that is Russia..
It is not Putin who made modern Russia or Russians, it is Russia and Russians who made Putin !!!.
After all the Russians do know the truth about Putin by now, they know who he is, what he does , what he will do, and what he has done, it should come as no surprise to any Russian, what they are voting for after soon 20 years with Putin in power THEY KNOW ALL ABOUT HIM !!
Even when Putin himself was NOT able to run for President back in 2008, and the Russians, had a chance to vote for another direction, what did they do?? They voted in Putin's boy Dmitry Medvedev for president, the Russians had the changes to vote for Boris Nemtsov and therefor freedom, rule of law and democracy but NO THEY VOTE for Putins boy Dmitry Medvedev for president, because that was the next best thing to voting for Putin !!

Just look at the population of Russians LIVING in that nations in East Europe it does not need to be that big to get problems .
Look at some facts
Ukraine only 17,3% ethnic Russian
Latvia only 26% ethnic Russian
Lithuania only 2,5% ethnic Russian
Estonia only 25,2 % ethnic Russian
Moldova only 5.8% ethnic Russian
Georgia only 1,5 % ethnic Russian
The % is not big in most of the nation's above but when it comes to how much this Russian scum demand of influence and how much they are screaming if you did not know the facts you will think they are almost the majority of the populations.
Take Lithuania as an good exs. in that country ethnic RuSSians are ONLY 2,5% that represents ONLY 50,460 people that are ethnic Russians and Russians are NOT the biggest ethnic group in-fact after Lithuanians it is Jews that take 2nd place as the biggest ethnic group in Lithuania with 7,6% of the population that represents 153,743 that is 3 times bigger than Russians and we don’t see the jews shouting out that their language (Hebrew) must have a special status in education, schools and that gov. documents must be written in Hebrew and TV and Radio must also be in Hebrew, street signs must be written Hebrew and that Hebrew must have special protected statues rights within Lithuania like
Russians are shouting about that they demand and want in Lithuania for their Russian language now do we …??
NO WE DONT !! becouse the Jewish population in Lithuania understand and respect that Lithuanians are the rightful owners and ppl. of Lithuania and they respect that fact..
SO THE QUESTION must be: Why is there always a problem with ethnic Russians all the time and why do they think they can demand special status for themselves and special status for Russian language who do they think they are ???

THE MYTH … The USSR defeated-nazigermany without the help of allies. The Russian forces could have won the war without the help of other nationalities of the Soviet Union
THE TRUTH Soviet textbooks described the role of Soviet allies in the war in a rather superficial manner. While they are blamed for allowing the occupation of the Czech republic and waited till the last moment to open up the Second front, little is said about US help as part of the lend-lease program.
During the Cold War, this myth was particularly important, as it elevated the contribution of the Soviet Union and diminished the contributions of its allies who were now on the other side of the Iron Wall. Today, in line with the growing isolation of Russia from the West, this myth is once again accentuated, one recent example being the book of now-Minister of Culture of Russia Volodymyr Medynsky “War. Myths of the USSR. 1939-1945.”
In reality, the lend-lease was one of the decisive factors in the victory of the Allied forces against the Axis. The USSR, and Russia as its successor, still has not repaid its debt for the lend-lease to the USA.
According to different estimates, western equipment added up to:
* 12-16% of the equipment of the Soviet armored troops;
* 10-15% of USSR’s aviation
* 32.4% of its Navy.
Up to 70% of the transport of the Soviet army came from the USA, meaning that the Soviet army drove around mainly on US cars. While the USSR released only 600 trucks for mounting “Katyusha” mortars, the USA contributed 20,000 American Studebaker trucks, making it the main vehicle for Soviet artillery. Apart from that, the lend-lease program gave USSR 56% of its railroad tracks and 43% of tires; 42% of it sugar, 108% of meat preserves, 18% of aviation fuel.
The amount of locomotives that the West provided exceeded the USSR’s production by 2.4 times and the amount of train cars – by 10.2 times. The amount of food that the USSR received as part of the lend-lease would have been enough to feed a 10-million army over 1688 days, i.e. the whole course of the war.
THE MYTH…. For the USSR, World War II started on 22 June 1941. The proper name of the war is the “Great Patriotic War,” because the USSR was defending itself against the-nazzi-invasion
THE TRUTH .. In reality , the USSR started the war on 17 September 1939, when the Red Army crossed the border with Poland, occupying it in accordance to the union between the Third Reich and Soviet Union, outlined by the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. “German and Soviet troops walked hand in hand. This was called a ‘military brotherhood’ in the USSR, before the war broke out,” noted Oleksandr Zinchenko from the Institute of National Memory. After Hitler started the war in Europe, the USSR provided economic assistance to-nazigermany-The USSR attempted to conceal these facts of collaboration with Hitler with the concept of the “Great Patriotic War,” which started out as a mere ideological cliché pronounced by Joseph Stalin during a radio broadcast on 3 July 1941, after-nazigermany-invaded Soviet Ukraine.
Today, the concept of “Great Patriotic War” is being used by the Russian Federation as an alternative to World War II in attempts to maintain its influence on Ukraine and post-Soviet republics.
THE MYTH.. The USSR is an innocent victim of German aggression and was always an enemy of the-nazzis-and did not work with them
THE TRUTH..: The USSR signed a non-aggression pact with-nazigermany-the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, that not only defined broad economic cooperation with the Third Reich and agreement on mutual non-aggression, but also contained a secret protocol by which the USSR and Germany agreed to divide up Europe.
During Soviet times, and in Russia today, the existence of the-nazi–Soviet-pact was explained as a necessity that came only after fruitless negotiations with Britain and France, and that the invasions of Poland were unconnected to the pact. In fact, Stalin willingly ruined attempts to establish an anti-Hitler coalition. During 12-21 August 1939, negotiations with Britain and France about collaborating to meet growing security challenges associated with the Third Reich took place in Moscow, but did not amount to an agreement because the Soviet leadership demanded the right to occupy Poland’s regions Halychyna and Vilenska Oblast (today, western regions of Ukraine and Belarus), which the other side could not condone.
Both Stalin and Hitler were unsatisfied with the world order that came about after World War I, which made their collaboration natural. On 19 August 1939, Stalin spoke about the necessity to urge Europe into a great war, which would be an overture to a “world revolution;” on 23 August 1939, the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact was signed, outlining broad economic cooperation between the USSR and the Third Reich, and violating the sovereignty and territorial integrity of a range of independent countries.
In addition to the stated clauses of the Molotov-Ribbentrop non-aggression pact, a secret protocol was adopted, dividing territories of Romania, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Finland into German and Soviet “spheres of influence”, anticipating potential “territorial and political rearrangements” of these countries. The Kremlin denied the existence of the secret protocol to the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact up to 1992.
The Soviet-nazi-military collaboration is undeniably clear in photographs from the German–Soviet military parade in Brest-Litovsk on 22 September 1939 during the invasion of Poland.
The pact had the most tragic consequences for European nations and the world; it is this agreement that became the mechanism opening the doors for a new world war. What followed was the invasion of Poland by-nazigermany-and the USSR, followed by the further carving up of Europe.

IT WAS NOT ETHNIC RUSSIAN THAT DIED FIGHTING THE NAZIS it was Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Armenia and the other nations that was forced into the USSR and put in the front lines as cannon fodder the ethnic Russians was the NKVD cowards shooting everyone else in the backs the ethnic Russians was in the NKVD and was officers and in supply units behind the lines not getting used a cannon fodder !!
Also let us not forget the fact the it was the Stalin and RuSSia that made it possible for Hitler to build up his nazi army by giving him iron-ore and other need goods from 1939-1941 the soviet union was the strongest and most important partner of nazi Germany ..
It was only after June 1941 when Hitler turned on his good buddy Stalin and attacked the USSR that Stalin came running to the west for help and the west said yes ok we will let you fight with us they did this well knowing that Stalin helped Hitler build his army and also because the west was thinking in terms like my enemy's enemy is my friend policy and tactic
Russians living in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. I really think that the Russians aren’t the ones to lecture ANYONE about fascism, or anything else for that matter, especially since RuSSians was the ones that signed the pact with the-devil [nazigermany] and started World War II… and even today RuSSia are still glorifying Stalin... Hitlers good buddy in 1937-1941 Hitler and Stalin started ww2 together when they invaded Poland together.
The RuZZians were the cowards who shot their own troops in the backs to press other forward infront like a human shields and canon-fodder.
YES they did shoot their own troops in the backs But they did NOT shoot ethnic Russians in the backs as most of that scum was officers and in logistics and the NKVD doing the shooting...
The ethnic Russian was the pathetic cowards that was shooting other Soviets in the back.....
And why did this happen you ask !
Answer : Becouse Stalin did not trust Ukrainians (and other none ethnic Russians )(remember he had only 8 years before Stalin had killed 10 mill Ukrainians in a genocide called the holodomor )
So what did Stalin do before ww2 he made a purge and killed all officers of non ethnic Russians decent in the Army and replaced them with ethnic Russians and made all others that was not ethnic Russians in low level positions in other worlds as cannon fodder for the german artillery and targets for german bullets... this was the Ukrainians, Belorussians , Uzbeks , Moldovan’s ect ect ect .. this is who was fighting and geting killed this is who was fighting the-nazi-not ethnic Russians they was in the safe jobs like NKVD ect ect ect ... back in the reserve army and as administrators ect ect..
Why do you think the Kremlin always say Russians died and not soviets died ?????
They do this to cover up this facts I have stated above and for Russia to take the honor from the people who really did the fighting..Russians and Russia have no shame !!

Nobody wants to be a "buffer country". NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom and self-determination, like some sort of 2nd class country
The whole concept is demeaning to an independent nation. NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom and self-determination, like some sort of 2nd class country; That is not right, and Russia has no right to demand or bully Ukrainians or Ukraine to accept to be some sort of lap dog on a leash 2nd class country to serve kremlins geopolitical agenda and so Kremlin, Putin and RuZZans can feel better about themselves ...
Eastern European countries (ex soviet countries like Poland the baltic states ect ect ..) joined NATO because they are scared of Russia and want to be and stay independent. Nobody forced them to join NATO they was the ones running and knocking and begging to be able to join NATO and the EU ,,, .
When Russia invaded Ukriane Russia then just showed why it was a good idea for those countries to join NATO, because if they didn't they might just have got invaded as well just like Ukraine and Georgia did .
During Soviet times those Eastern European countries where nothing less than Russia puppet states. If they didn't join NATO after the fall of the USSR then they for sure couldn't guarantee their own independence from Russia.
Nato did nothing wrong, the only mistake was Ukraine not joining NATO to ensure Ukraines independence; Remember former satellite states like Poland, Romania, Czech Republic and The Baltic states, Slovakia ect ect all came running by their own accord, knocking, kicking, screaming and banging at the front door of EU and NATO begging to come in, no one forced them into it .
If Russia was not such a asshole country and stoped constantly bulling neighboring countries maybe other neighboring countries will not need to join NATO and by more open and welcoming to Russia ..

Bandera was not personally part of the genocide the evidence clearly shows that Bandera had nothing to do with it ... BANDERA WAS a prisoner (POW) of war when the massacre in Volhynia happened..so how is Bandera responsible ????
The Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists under the leadership of Stepan Bandera decided to fight against the Hitler after they was arrested in 1941.
Now that is NOT much collaboration now is it.... AND THAT IS WHY Stepan Bandera was arrested by the GERMANS and sent to Sachsenhausen concentration camp because Bandera was not collaborating with the nazis it is a
Myth and propaganda used by Moscow and some times the anti Ukraine elements inside Poland to direct Ukrainian independence..
The German high command in Ukraine sent a memo saying that all functionaries of the Bandera Movement must be arrested at once and, after thorough interrogation, are to be liquidated...".
On July 5, Bandera was arrested and transferred to Berlin.
On July 12, the president of the newly formed Ukrainian state, Yaroslav Stetsko, was also arrested and taken to Berlin. In January 1942,
Bandera was transferred to Sachsenhausen concentration camp's special barrack for high-profile political prisoners Zellenbau
Bandera was in a German KZ camp Sachsenhausen concentration camp from 1941-1944
NOW if you are sent to a KZ camp YOU ARE NOT a friend of Hitler are you AND IF YOU ARE inn a concentration camp from 1941 to the end of 1944 YOU can not be held responsible for the Volhynia massacre that happened in 1943 !!!!
AND LETS US ALSO NOT FORGET THAT MORE AND MORE new evidence is coming to light saying that it was NKVD dressed up as UPA /OUN that did the massacre in Volhynia in 1943.. But this is still not 100% proven yet,,,,

Appeasement & Armageddon: Giving in to Vladimir Putin’s nuclear blackmail will spark an unprecedented nuclear arms race and make a future nuclear war far more likely!!
There is a reason why the Soviet Union, nor any nuclear power, never launched a first strike (nuclear attack) since Word War 2, despite all of the Cold War fears that the Soviets would.

Giving in to Vladimir Putin’s nuclear blackmail will spark an unprecedented nuclear arms race and make a future nuclear war far more likely!! There is a reason why the Soviet Union, nor any nuclear power, never launched a first strike (nuclear attack) since World War 2, despite all of the Cold War fears that the Soviets would.

It is not Putin who made modern Russia or Russians, it is Russia and Russians who made Putin !!!.
After all the Russians do know the truth about Putin by now, they know who he is, what he does , what he will do, and what he has done, it should come as no surprise to any Russian, what they are voting for after soon 20 years with Putin in power THEY KNOW ALL ABOUT HIM !!
Even when Putin himself was NOT able to run for President back in 2008, and the Russians, had a chance to vote for another direction, what did they do?? They voted in Putin's boy Dmitry Medvedev for president, the Russians had the changes to vote for Boris Nemtsov and therefor freedom, rule of law and democracy but NO THEY VOTE for Putins boy Dmitry Medvedev for president, because that was the next best thing to voting for Putin !!!
So the Russians NO longer have an excuse, they are responsible for the actions that the evil regime they support and they have voted for time after time after time….

GIVING A SURRENDER IS NOT A PEACE DEAL ITS A SHAKE DOWN !!!! Anyone can make a peace deal when they surrender, which is what Trump is asking Ukraine to do.
Trump and his admin appear to be Putin's lifeline.
Its obvious what happened. A US president tried to shake down a foreign leader for mineral rights in Ukraine. The USA has abandoned its leadership role in the world and is now just for sale. The Republicans have lost their minds and perhaps their souls. Siding with Russia.
JD Vance talks about Zelensky being disrespectful and then points his finger and raises his voice TAKING talking down to Zelensky like he was som sort of child talking this way at a President of a sovereign state who is a visitor in the White House; coming to give 50% of his county natural resources and a deal that is more like a shake down than anything else after VANCE AND TRUNP has call him a dictator and never said any bad word other the praise for Putin .
I did not see Zelenskyy raising his voice. I did not see any arrogance. I saw him attempting to explain that a cease fire without guarantees would not work. He could not get a word in. The tirade of obscene fury from Trump and Vance left no room for a discussion of the issues. Trump, of course, continued lying.
Does the orange man and Vance talk to Mr Putin like that.. just 2 cowards the orange man and the VP.. that clearly are wanting to kiss up to Putin for sure they have some backhand deal going on with the Kremlin ; this was staged ; question sense when does the VP every come and seat down and talk in a press meeting when to head of states are meeting the press before a conference ?? This here was an coordinated attack to make out like Zelenskyy is an unreasonable person that wants war and that Putin and Trump are the peace loving parties
In order to make peace he has to give up his country's most resourceful land.
He's a proud Ukrainian, who is tired of his people being pushed around by the Russians. Now the U.S. is trying to get their hands on the minerals.
I think when the USA have secret talks with Russia, then propose a deal that gives Russia land and The USA mineral wealth and potentially removes Zelenskyy i from office (allowing Russian puppet government or weak government) with no security guarantees offered other than Putin supposedly respecting Trump, especially when he knows that that Putin is a proven liar that breaks treaties at will, when his host in the oval office has called him a dictator and accused him of starting the war....... l think that that's gonna make Zelenskyy in a bad mood from the start.
This looks like Afghanistan again, America get involved, fund and encourage a side then leave them with their pants down.
Let's see it form this side ; See it from a different angle.
If America was invaded by its neighboring country say Mexico or Canada or Russia that borders Alaska and Russia says for historical reasons (Alaska used to be Russian ) we are taking Alaska becouse it used to be part of Russia so we are taking back ; could you imagine what America would say? will Trump and Vance and the US just let Russia take Alaska in the ints. of world peace !!???
if the rest of the world said that Mexico can just walking in as an aggressor and can take back Texas to New Mexico and all land all the way to Nevada, will US agree to that in the ints. of world peace ?? Will America agree to not be part of any pace talks and be put on the side line and just let European Union or China deal with Putin over Alaska to make peace with Russia for taking Alaska .. becouse Russia has nuclear weapons ?..
The EU goes in and asked Putin for a pace talk to make a deal on how things will be regarding Putin getting Alaska back AND THE EU TELLS the US. you don't get to come to the "pace talks"
I don't think Trump or the American people would agree to "make pace" so why would and should Ukraine agree to their country being carved up and given to Putin. Throughout this last year that's how American thought has been perceived in the West. This so called 'deal' is not a commodity to be bought or sold.
The pro PUTIN BOOT LICKERSthat are putins but boys Trump and JD saying Ukraine has to give up on wanting its land back give up on wanting the Black sea back give up on wanting the Azov sea back give up on wanting its cities back its people ; becouse its just a small bitt of landmass Russia wants so give it up ..
lets get the facts correct here 120,000 km2 of land we are talking about here ..
For the European Union that land mass will be about the same as Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg alltogether..
And for the United Kingdom we are talking about Scotland and all but of England all put together !!
When it comes to how much land that is for America South Carolina, West Virginia will have been lost !!
Why the f. should Ukraine give Russia all that land for what? TO ONLY be invaded some years later when Russia as had a brake and regrouped ,rebuilt its army and fortified positions !!
I SAY RUSSIA GETS TO TAKE LAND AND DEMAND UKRAINE CAN NOT JOIN NATO IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AT ALL !! Nobody wants to be a "buffer country". NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom !!!! ; The whole concept is demeaning to an independent nation. NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom and self-determination, like some sort of 2nd class country; That is not right, and Russia has no right to demand or bully Ukrainians or Ukraine to accept that Ukraine and its ppl. should become some sort of lap dog on a leash 2nd class country to serve kremlins geopolitical agenda; so Kremlin, Putin and RuZZans can feel better about themselves ..
FACT ; December 1974, Definition of Aggression, United Nations General Assembly Resolution 3314 (XXIX) Article 5:
1. No consideration of whatever nature, whether political, economic, military or otherwise, may serve as a justification for aggression.
2. A war of aggression is a crime against international peace. Aggression gives rise to international responsibility.
3. No territorial acquisition or special advantage resulting from aggression is or shall be recognized as lawful. (*this includes any deals on minerals made under pressure*)

RUSSIA HAS ALREADY LOST !!
Russia has lost over 580000 troops and over half of its military hardware / equipment and have only 17% of Ukraine land mass so based on those fig Russia simply does not have enough troops and military hardware to take over Ukraine and it will cost even more to hold it !!
Between Assad losing Syria, NATO adding Finland and Sweden, Russia losing tens of thousands of soldiers to a war it wasn't prepared for and thousands of prime skilled workers to emigration, and Russian money is being poured into a fruitless slaughterfest of dead Russians; ending up as fertulrzer on the battlefield and feeding the crows and ravens in east Ukraine ...I don't know how anyone can say Russia is truly "winning" right now even if they do get some more land in Ukraine..
Yes Between Assad losing Syria, NATO adding Finland and Sweden, Russia losing tens of thousands of soldiers to a war it wasn't prepared for and thousands of prime skilled workers to emigration, and Russian money is being poured into a fruitless slaughterfest of dead Russians; ending up as fertulrzer on the battlefield and feeding the crows and ravens in east Ukraine ...I don't know how anyone can say Russia is truly "winning" right now even if they do get some more land in Ukraine..
Yes Russia is taking potato fields and a tiny worthless village in east Ukraine, yes if you can see this fruitless slaughterfest that is costing the lives of 1500++ Russian soldiers bleeding out and dying every a day as wining the war then yes you maybe right you got some potato fields and a tiny worthless village BRAVO !! (and then claiming some sort of victory is correct )
However in the meantime , Ukraine is targeting deep into Russian proper ; Ukraine is hitting every day Russian vital economic centers of the Russian economy ; Ukraine is flying its drones with impunity hitting Russias oil refinery, Russias gas and petroleum installations, Russia railways infrastructure, Russias military industrial complex, and Ukraine has been extremely effective with this type of attacks ; and Russias "air defense" attempts to stop Ukraine in attacking their infrastructure that is vital for the functioning of Russia society and its economy has proven impossible for Moscow ...
(ON A SIDE NOTE : A FACT THAT GETS OVERLOOKED IS : Ukraine army and defense is much stronger better equipment and bigger (more trained active soldiers ) now (it has become bigger not smaller over time) its better organized and has more experience more weapons more diverse weaponry more high tech weaponry now than it was back in 2013 and even back in 2022 why stronger not weaker !!
Unlike Russia it has become less equipped and has lower quality human resource
Maybe you can explain to me how a country that can not take east Ukraine for 2 years and lost its black sea navy to a country without a navy ; a country that needs to beg and kissassssss to North Korea for weapons to survive a country that can even defend its own territories in Kursk Oblast a county that is pushing in untrained men into combat because it has no more well trained soldiers left a county that is using Chinese electric golf-carts and Chinese mopeds to attack with because they so low on proper military equipment ! a country that now is so low on combat soldiers that its striping its Murmansk navy personal and forcing sailors to take up infantry fighting roles in a land army .. A country that os low of spare parts for its air force a country that has en economy that is so bad no international banks not even Chinese banks wants to touch them !!!
NOTE : Also Putin is scraping the bottom of the bucket recruiting from African countries and china and North Korea ; Putin is begging North Korea for help and Venezuela for help ALSO LETS NOT FORGET Ukraine has pushed the Russian Army all the why over the river in the south and even made a foothold on the east side of the river !! Ukraine has liberated more territory since the full scale invasion over 2 years ago than Russia has taken (is the outskirts of KYIV under Russian control like it was 2 years ago ?)
Putin is losing 1500++ soldiers a DAY if you haven't even taken all cities and villages in the Donbas how can you claim to be a victor hahaahaha
HOW IS THAT COUNTRY (RUSSIA ) GOING TO WIN !!
Maybe if some pro Russian can explain it, I can understand how.
I SAY Russia has humiliated themselves right from the start of this stupidity all the way back in 2014 and Kremlin and Putin has continuously humiliated himself and Russia ever since.
The fact the Kremlin remain in this war, even when they know they cant win, and are willing to destroy themselves just proves how totally clueless they are....adding to their humiliation so Russia is already humiliated and broken .
FACT Russia is already in a worse place than they were before invading their small neighbor, and Russia did this to themselves, the result of their stupidity is that now they have more NATO borders after Finland and Sweden moved towards joining NATO , Putin and Russia is now laughingstock of a military world , and most of their biggest customers of oil and gas are canceling their orders.
I will be amazed if Russia hasn't broken up into smaller states within the next decade or so, this is real end of nations stuff that Putins ego and vanity so-stupidly has thrown Russia into; time will show this as complete idiocy from Putin.
I serious cannot envision Russia humiliating itself any more than it has already done , but that said , Putins ego is a massive chunk of half-witted, simple, ill-considered , unwise shortsighted buffoonery and NOT the wise geo-political chess player some include Putins own ego likes to say and Putin likes to think he is ..
I mean look at Putins strategies so far: recruiting two new Nato members, selling oil at a discount to 3 world countries and giving free tanks and equipment to Ukrainian army because of those tanks running out of fuel and ammunition. YES THE Master strategist Putin. Who’s lost much more than 30% of his armor, who sacrificed innumerable Russian lives in a failed attempt to take Kyiv and Snake Island, who pushed Finland and Sweden into joining NATO, who sunk the flagship of his Navy… yesssss all going according to plan.HAHA !!

The Kerch bridge is an illegal bridge built on Ukrainian territory and therefor this illegal structure belongs to Ukraine, becouse it was built on Ukrainian land; And this illegal structure is infact used by an invading force an occupying foreign force, that has conducted an belligerent illegal occupation of Ukrainian territory ..
So attacking and destroying this bridge is well within the definition of what is seen as a legal military structural target in accordance with international laws of war !!! It is also was built without the correct permissions from the correct legal Ukrainians authorities, so regardless of if it is a time of peace or war this structure, should be taken down and subject to demolition ; as this is by any definition an illegal structure built without the permission of Ukrainian authorities on Ukrainian land !!!
So based on those facts , the Ukrainian government are free to do whatever they want with this illegal structure that is the Kerch bridge, including but not limiting to, using it for spacial military target practice ,,, Ukraine dose not need to ask anyone for any permission regarding how they choose to use or do with this bridge, as this bridge is an illegal built on Ukraine's own territory !!

What really gets me is that some ppl. are now saying why does Ukraine not just let Russia have the areas /land it’s just a small part of Ukraine anyway.....
A small part of Ukraine ...WE ARE taking about a land mass is almost 200,000 sq km
In EU terms thats the size of Belgium, Holland, luxembourg and Greece all put together..
In UK terms that the size of all of Scotland , Wales and 80% of England all put together !!
In US terms is the size of South Carolina, West Virginia and New Jersey all put together !!
Why the f. should Ukraine give Russia all that land for what? TO ONLY be invaded some years later when Russia as had a brake and regrouped ,rebuilt its army and fortified positions !!
I SAY RUSSIA GETS TO TAKE LAND AND DEMAND UKRAINE CAN NOT JOIN NATO IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AT ALL !! Nobody wants to be a "buffer country".

NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom and self-determination, like some sort of 2nd class country; That is not right, and Russia has no right to demand or bully Ukrainians or Ukraine to accept that Ukraine and its ppl. should become some sort of lap dog on a leash 2nd class country to serve kremlins geopolitical agenda; so Kremlin, Putin and RuZZans can feel better about themselves ...
Eastern European countries (ex soviet countries like Poland the baltic states ect ect ..) joined NATO because they are scared of Russia and want to be and stay independent. Nobody forced them to join NATO they was the ones running and knocking and begging to be able to join NATO and the EU ,,, .
When Russia invaded Ukraine Russia then just showed why it was a good idea for those countries to join NATO, because if they didn't they might just have got invaded as well just like Ukraine and Georgia did .
During Soviet times those Eastern European countries were nothing less than Russia puppet states. If they didn't join NATO after the fall of the USSR then they for sure couldn't guarantee their own independence from Russia.
Nato did nothing wrong, the only mistake was Ukraine not joining NATO to ensure Ukraines independence; Remember former satellite states like Poland, Romania, Czech Republic and The Baltic states, Slovakia ect ect all came running by their own accord, knocking, kicking, screaming and banging at the front door of EU and NATO begging to come in, no one forced them into it .
If Russia was not such a asshole country and stoped constantly bulling neighboring countries maybe other neighboring countries will not need to join NATO and by more open and welcoming to Russia ..
Also these people who advocate this view that Ukraine shroud just give up land and appeasement to Russians wants wishes are also being very ignorant to the fact that there were already treaties in place between Russia and Ukraine where Russia respecting the integrity of Ukraine's borders plus other treaties relating to the seas around Ukraine.
Putin has already broken those treaties.
Why would Ukraine believe Putin would stick to a new treaty when he's just broken half a dozen of the previous Russia Ukraine treaties and agreements.
Russia has demonstrated its treaties and agreements are worthless and you enter them at your great peril.

On a side note ; Moscow is ONLY 480 km to Latvia and 150 km from St, Petersburg and via Estonia so the argument that NATO will get closer to Moscow if Ukraine joins NATO is BS there is 800 km from Kyiv to Moscow ..

---------It is embarrassing that the US and Europe do not support Ukraine more than they do , the US. were in Afghanistan for 20 years and achieved less than Ukraine in 2 years, and Ukraine is also a much stronger opponent with many more resources !! As a Norwegian I am ashamed of our policies in the west , the western nations governments use every opportunity to go on national TV and tell how much they support, but the truth is that we have only provided 94 Euros per inhabitant, it is ridiculous when we look at the size of Ukraine, the opponent and the way Russia has bombed cities in Ukraine back to the Stone Age, and that we (western nations ) have not lost a single person in the war , we are talking about Europe, democracy and freedom that Ukraine is defending , one can only be ashamed

MAGA: = Moscow Agent (‘Krasnov’) Governing America
Ukraine had an absolutely identical situation in Ukraine, when the Russian agent Yanukovych won the presidential elections back in 2010.
The fact that he was recruited by the Russian security service the FSB has already been well documented at this point (he is now living in MOSCOW with 40 billion dollars of stolen Ukrainian state funds.
The people of Ukraine, were absolutely confused. when Putins boy Yanukovych took office ; when they did not know what to do. they were apathetic and had no leaders.
When Yanukovych got into office he was fast to put other Russian agents in all the key gov. positions. Just so you understand, Yanukovych put a guy who had Russian citizenship in the post of Minister of Defense of Ukraine. Yanukovych and his people destroyed the Ukrainian army by systematic dismantling and shutting down departments; and in 4 years, stole the country's budget. Because of this, Ukraine was absolutely unprepared for the annexation of Crimea and the invasion of Russian "green men" in east Ukraine 2014.
Americans! You are now in the same situation as Ukraine were. Your so-called president is a KGB recruit, agent "Krasnov". This has already been confirmed from various sources. And what he does now confirms it even more. Just look at who he appoints to key positions. How he betrays Ukraine and European allies. How he idolizes Putin. What other signals do you need to start acting?
Trump:
1. Threatens their ex-ally Canada with economic ruin if they don't allow the US to take them over "voluntarily".
2. Threatens Denmark that they will take Greenland from them one way or another because they wants it my precious, so they will haves it.
3. Aligns with dictators including Russia, China and North Korea in a vote against democratic Ukraine, and cuts off support for them while at the same time trying to extort an unreasonable "deal" for a large amount of their natural resources with no guarantees they'll try to get back their land from Russia in return.
4. "Negotiates" behind Ukraine's back with Russia asking them for zero concessions, and then sets up Zelenskyy in an interview complete with the Russian state media in attendance in a way that seems straight out of the CCP's playbook on trying to de-power and twist the narrative on your opponents.
Hang on, are we really surprised that the US is now an ally of Russia given their expansionist, dictator like behavior lately? They're starting to look just as bad as Trump's new buddies.
Europe needs to make a defense alliance's with one for all all for one (an article 5 ) agreement for Europe can call it EATO European Atlantic Treaty organization its that easy !!
Trump is trying to force Ukraine into a capitulation a total surrender ; masquerading as a" PEACE DEAL " its not a peace deal when only one side must give up everything and the other side gets everything it wants ; and it defiantly not a peace deal when one side must give a 3rd party 50% of its natural resources !! This is putting a gun to some head and telling them make the deal becouse either you brains or your signature will be on the document !
Zelenskyy says he is willing to come to an fare agreement but in exchange Ukraine needs solid security guarantees to secure Ukraines sovereignty and safety within its own borders and what has Trump offered of " the Trump security guarantees " he offered that American companies can start up in UKRAINE and that will make Putin (according to the Donald) think twice about attacking Ukraine in the further !!
WOW its was that easy all a long to scare off Putin just send American companies into Ukraine!! LOL .....
That the guarantee!!!! thats what they are now telling Zelenskyy this is what Trump and Vance are trying to sell Zelenskyy this is what they saying is a solid security he can take back to the Ukrainians mothers ; thats what their sons ended up killed for when they so heroically defended their country form Putins aggression ..
WOW thats fantastic then why did they (the US ) send all those weapons in the first place?
US. should have just sent in Microsoft, Ford motor company , Heinz Tomato Ketchup , Coca Cola , Mac Donalds. together with some big boys like ConocoPhillips, Hecla Mining, Chevron and Goldman Sachs and last but not least The Walt Disney Company!!
I hear Mickey Mouse big ears really scares Putin to death -- !!!!
TRUMP AND VANCE ARE TRYING TO PLAY UKRAINIANS FOR FOOLS; AND STEAL UKRAINIANS NATURAL MINERALS, SO WHO IS BEING DISRESPECTFUL HERE !!
FACT In Ukraine there was already American and European interests and massive companies in Ukraine before the war but Putin still invaded; so this is just Trump talking BS to get 50% of Ukraines natural resources for nothing and then turn around and say look what a master deal maker I am the art of the deal !!

THE AID IS NOT 350 BILLION AT ALL THATS A LIE IT IS 120 BILLION (still a lot of money yes ) AND OVER 85 % OF THAT MONEY WAS NOT SENDT TO UKRAINE IT WAS USED TO RESTOCK WITH NEW WEAPONS , REPLACING ITS OWN OUT DATED WEAPONS , THAT SOON WILL HAVE BEEN PASSED ITS SHELF-LIFE ANYWAY; AND IN NEEDS DESPERATE NEED OF DESTRUCTION !!
So the aid Trump is talking about is no where in reality at all it is only in his lying head only !!! There was never 350 Billion there is not 350 billion there is a 120 billion yes but NOT a 350 Billion ..
Also when Trump claims US has sent more than Europe that is wrong as well the EU has sent 135 billion US sent 120 Billion ..
A good eks , is Denmark the tiny country of 6 million, has donated 8.2 billion usd. Compared to Americas contribution of 120 billion, that would be 451 billion or about 4 times as much per capita. So much for US lies and taking credit..
DONT BELEVE ME JUST GOOGLE (‘The actual number is $120B, not $350B’: Rattner debunks Trump’s Ukraine aid claims)
SIDE NOTE Over 130 countries came to the aid of USA on 9/11. Did any one ask to be paid back?
The aid is not free cash it’s the equivalent of those dollars in hardware !!!
its hardware from old equipment of military stock piles that will have been sent or about to be sent for destruction and will have been replaced anyway as its shelf life storage l is over and out dated or about to be over date !! (this way US saves money by not having to safely destroy those weapons only replace them )
The military equipment has been pulled directly from existing U.S. military old SURPLUS inventory that has a shelf date that soon will be past that date ; and will be needing replacement anyway this way US. gets to restock its military equipment with more newer updates versions and send the soon to by out of date to Ukraine and as a bonus US. military saves the money it will have used for destroying the old military equipment as well !!
Also it is true other parts of the Aid / funding will be used to purchase new weapons and this will be sent to Ukraine; but all sales must be and will be bought from the US industrial complex industry and American manufacturers; this supports local American communities in states (over 33 states ) that produce weapon's this helps marginalized communities and sates get a solid cash influx / bust into their local economy and supports jobs within the factors that will be producing those new weapons.-.
(So the money doesn't go into the pockets of Zelensky and friends thats a myth pumped out by Russian propaganda and regurgitated by "pathetic tools" of the kremlin like TuckerCarlsen or MUSK )
Members of Congress have questioned how closely the U.S. is tracking its aid to Ukraine to ensure that it is not subject to fraud or ending up in the wrong hands.
The Pentagon’s inspector general told lawmakers at a hearing, that his office has found no evidence of such corruption or wrongdoing, but cautioned that investigations are only in their early stages.
The Pentagon’s inspector general also informed the Members of Congress that despite claims to the contrary, the United States is not sending bags of unaccounted-for cash to Ukraine. Most US contributions go to military aid, including weapons and equipment made by American defense contractors who employ communities across the country. When the United States spends money to purchase military equipment as part of an international aid package, the materiel may go overseas, but the money and jobs stay in America. Similarly, appropriations for the US Foreign Military Financing program provide incentives for NATO allies and partners to secure US-made capabilities. This translates to more business for US companies and sustained employment for rural communities in which they operate.
For instance, Lockheed Martin, maker of the HIMARS—which has been central to Ukraine’s counteroffensive—plans to increase its Camden, Arkansas facility’s workforce by 20%, and recently announced increased profit projections through the end of the year. Similarly, General Dynamics has committed to building new production facilities in Mesquite, Texas, bringing money and jobs to the region. Change like this takes place only when the Pentagon sends strong and stable market signals to the defense industry, giving it the confidence to expand and hire.
In short, the numbers suggest that continued support for Ukraine is a win-win for Ukrainians and the American people.
The United States can continue to defend stability and democratic governance across the globe, while at the same time boosting American industrial output and advancing US economic interests.

BEFORE SOMEONE STARTS SAYING USA AND NATO ILLEGALLY INVADES OTHERS BLA BLA BLA IS WRONG SOME WARS ARE LEGAL SOME ARE NOT ...LET ME TELL YOU THIS !!
1.THE FIRST IRAQ WAR : Iraqi invaded Kuwait (first Iraq war ) and US responded with a UN secretary council mandate !! Members of Congress of both political parties, and members of the United Nations Security Council, (that both Russia and China are members of and both have veto rights in the UN Security Council ) agree at the time that Saddam Hussein is a threat to peace and must disarm.
2. THE 2ND IRAQ WAR ; Members of Congress of both political parties, and members of the United Nations Security Council, (that both Russia and China are members of and both have veto rights in the UN Security Council ) agree at the time that Saddam Hussein is a threat to peace and must disarm.
In 2003 invasion of Iraq (2nd Iraq war )!! Everyone believed Saddam when he said he had weapons and why not believe he had only some years before in the IRAN /IRAQ war used such weapons so there was not reason to not to believe him and he was offered several time to prove he did not have and let the UN weapons inspectors in to confirm or disconfirm if he had those weapons that everyone believed he had and he refused to let in the UN weapons inspectors (by the way how was french not American ) and the UN Security Council that Russia and CHINA are members of and has veto vote in (so they can use veto vote to block anything they want )did not have any problem in the United Nations Security Council and US demanding Saddam follow the restriction and demands that was imposed by the United Nations Security Council at they time !! Because everyone's own intelligence agency (not just the US ) even Russia and china was convinced Sadam did in-fact have WMDs
Following the adoption of Security Council Resolution 1483 two months after the war, then-UN Secretary General Kofi Annan appointed a Special Representative for Iraq and the UN assumed some small responsibilities there.
In August 2003, an attack on UN headquarters in Baghdad confirmed the critics' fears, killing fifteen UN staff including the Special Representative. The UN in February 2004, the UN agreed to send a mission to the country, to help construct a new interim government..
US and UK officials have argued that existing UN Security Council resolutions related to the 1991 Gulf War and the subsequent ceasefire (660, 678), and to later inspections of Iraqi weapons programs (1441), had already authorized the invasion,,
The United Nations Security Council Resolution 660 and 67 and 1441 made the iraq war legal !!

Appeasement & Armageddon: Giving in to Vladimir Putin’s nuclear blackmail will spark an unprecedented nuclear arms race and make a future nuclear war far more likely!!
There is a reason why the Soviet Union, nor any nuclear power, never launched a first strike (nuclear attack) since Word War 2, despite all of the Cold War fears that the Soviets would. And it’s because you can't launch a first strike without being annihilated in the second strike. I remember in the 80s when The Day After aired, and everyone hoped the Soviets would see the movie and learn the lesson. Probably not realizing the Soviets can be trusted to act in the best self-interests...which mutually assured destruction is clearly against... and that the Soviets knew this since the 60s, if not the 50s. -- How is it any different today?
Even if Putin had the launch codes (he doesn't), or the ability to order a first strike by himself (he doesn't), even he would know the response is not going to be 'more sanctions'. -- The only way I could fathom Russia using a nuclear weapon in Ukraine, or against any enemy country, is the FSB had a foolproof plan to blame am ISIS terror cell, or rogue Chechen element, or claim the Ukrainians did it in a false-flag conspiracy to frame the Russians. -- But that would require a convincing story on how such an element got the nuclear weapon 'elsewhere', and eliminating everyone involved in the planning and execution. Whatever the case, Russia would need absolute plausible deniability. -- Here's my two cents, if there was really a way to use a nuclear weapon against an enemy without equal repercussions, Russia and China (and the US) would have figured it out a long time ago and did it already.
All NATO must do is take out Moscow and 5 -6 other city's to take out all of Russia.... But Russia must take out city's all over the planet from USA , CANADA ,FRANCE UK. ALL OF EUROPE and as far away as , AUSTRALIA and so on and so on ...
United Kingdom 225 warheads (submarine delivery systems new and up to date systems )
France 300 warheads
(submarine delivery systems new and up to date systems )
United States 7,315 warheads
(Mixed delivery systems new and up to date systems )
Russia 8,000 warheads
(Mixed delivery systems old mostly from the soviet union times NOT up to date systems )
RUSSIA IS AT DISADVANTAGE !!! and they know it Putin's regime knows its and that is why they will not use nukes they will hint and shout about nukes but that's it !!

RUSSIA GETS TO TAKE LAND IS NOT ACCEPTABLE !! Nobody wants to be a "buffer country". The whole concept is demeaning to an independent nation. NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom and self-determination like a type of 2nd class country; that is not right, and Russia has no right to demand or bully Ukrainians or Ukraine to accept to be some sort of lap dog on a leash 2nd class country, that indirectly will serving the kremlins geopolitical agenda, and so Kremlin, the RuZZians and Putin can feel better about themselves ...
All the Eastern European countries has more or less joined NATO because they was scared of Russia and want make sure they will stay independent, (and the same goes for the EU financial independence ) Nobody forced Eastern European countries to join , NATO or the EU all of them came running and begging and knocking on the door of NATO and EU by themselves, asking and begging to be let into The EU and NATO !!
Russia invading Ukriane back 2014 and Georgia back in 2008 and now all out war with Ukraine from 2022++ just showed, why it was and still is a good idea for those Eastern European countries to join NATO, and the EU because if they didn't they might just have got invaded as well .
During Soviet times those Eastern countries where nothing but quasi Russia puppet states and where totally exploited by Russia under under its heel and boot. If those eastern European countries didn't join NATO then they couldn't have guaranteed their own future continuous independence from Russia by themselves . Nato did nothing wrong, the only mistake was Ukraine not joining NATO to ensure their independence !!!
The former satellite states like Poland,Romania,Czech Republic and The Baltic states, Slovakia ect ect was running to and knocking at the front door of EU and NATO begging to come inn and thats the truth !! . If Russia was not such a asshole country and stoped constantly bulling neighboring countries maybe other neighboring countries will not need to join NATO and by more open and welcoming to Russia ..
On a side side note ; Election under a gun with tanks and thugs standing over the voting boxes is not an election it can not be a free and legal election...Referendums vía gun point isn't a referendum, it's racketeering. Something that Russia knows oh so very well how to do. YOU CAN VOTE AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN It will never be legal as long as Russian army is there and as lone as it is an illegal gov. put there by an occupying force
It might be useful to recap some of the reason why Russia is now an outcast :
Russian interference in numerous elections and referendums in EU countries over the last decade; Russia's active disinformation campaigns across the EU;
Russian-based cyber attacks targeting numerous EU countries;
Provocative Russian military flights in and around EU and NATO airspace;
Russia's interference with GPS navigation systems in Scandinavia;
Russia's continued deployment of "peacekeepers" in Moldova despite that country's repeated requests that Russian troops be replaced with UN peacekeepers;
Russia's 2008 war against Georgia and its continued occupation of some 20 percent of Georgian territory;
Russia's 2014 annexation of Ukraine's Crimea region;
Russia's intense involvement in the war in eastern Ukraine, which the ICC in November 2016 ruled "an international armed conflict between Ukraine and the Russian Federation";
Russia's obstructionism in implementation of the Minsk agreements to end the Ukraine conflict;
Russia's role in acts of terrorism in the 2014 downing of a passenger airliner (Malaysia Airlines MH17) over Ukraine that killed 298 people;
Russia's poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko in London in 2006;
Russia's attempted assassination of former Russian spy Sergei Skripal in Salisbury in 2018;
among lots of other things to much to even list up ..
NONE OF THIS ABOVE WAS SOMETHING THE EU , THE USA OR EVEN NATO, FORCED OR TRICKED RUSSIA INTO DOING !!!
RUSSIA’S INVASION OF UKRAINE in 2014 VIOLATED INTERNATIONAL LAW:
1. The Geneva Convention.
2. Charter of the United Nations
3. The Helsinki Accords
4. The Charter of the OSCE
5. Budapest Memorandum of 1994
6. Two Russia, Ukraine friendship treaties
7. International Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Racial Discrimination
8. European Court of Human Rights
THE LEGAL FACTS WHY CRIMEA BELONGS TO UKRAINE .
The earlier published documents, and materials that have emerged more recently make clear that the transfer of Crimea from the RSFSR to the UkrSSR was carried out in accordance with the 1936 Soviet constitution, which in Article 18 stipulated that “the territory of a Union Republic may not be altered without its consent.” The proceedings of the USSR Supreme Soviet Presidium meeting indicate that both the RSFSR and the UkrSSR had given their consent via their republic parliaments.
One of the officials present at the 19 February session, Otto Kuusinen, even boasted that “only in our country [the USSR] is it possible that issues of the utmost importance such as the territorial transfer of individual oblasts to a particular republic can be decided without any difficulties.” One might argue that the process in 1954 would have been a lot better if it had been complicated and difficult, but no matter how one judges the expeditiousness of the territorial reconfiguration, the main point to stress here is that it is incorrect to say (as some Russian commentators and government officials recently have) that Crimea was transferred unconstitutionally or illegally. The legal system in the Soviet Union was mostly a fiction, but the transfer did occur in accordance with the rules in effect at the time.
Moreover, regardless of how the transfer was carried out, the Russian Federation expressly accepted Ukraine’s 1991 borders both in the December 1991 Belovezhskaya Pushcha accords (the agreements that precipitated and codified the dissolution of the Soviet Union) and in the December 1994 Budapest Memorandum that finalized Ukraine’s status as a non-nuclear weapons state.

What rally gets me is that some ppl. are now saying why does Ukraine not just let Russia have the areas /land its just a small part of Ukriane anyway.....
A small part of Ukraine ...WE ARE taking about a land mass over 200,000 sq km
In EU terms thats the size of Belgium, Holland, and Greece all put together..
In UK terms that the size of all of Scotland , Wales and most of England
In US terms is the size of South Carolina, West Virginia and New Jersey all put together !!
Why the should Ukraine give up all that land for what to be invaded only some years later !!
I SAY RUSSIA GETS TO TAKE LAND AND DEMAND UKRAINE CAN NOT JOIN NATO IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AT ALL !! Nobody wants to be a "buffer country". NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom and self-determination, like some sort of 2nd class country
The whole concept is demeaning to an independent nation. NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom and self-determination, like some sort of 2nd class country; That is not right, and Russia has no right to demand or bully Ukrainians or Ukraine to accept to be some sort of lap dog on a leash 2nd class country to serve kremlins geopolitical agenda and so Kremlin, Putin and RuZZans can feel better about themselves ...
Eastern European countries (ex soviet countries like Poland the baltic states ect ect ..) joined NATO because they are scared of Russia and want to be and stay independent. Nobody forced them to join NATO they was the ones running and knocking and begging to be able to join NATO and the EU ,,, .
When Russia invaded Ukriane Russia then just showed why it was a good idea for those countries to join NATO, because if they didn't they might just have got invaded as well just like Ukraine and Georgia did .
During Soviet times those Eastern European countries where nothing less than Russia puppet states. If they didn't join NATO after the fall of the USSR then they for sure couldn't guarantee their own independence from Russia.
Nato did nothing wrong, the only mistake was Ukraine not joining NATO to ensure Ukraines independence; Remember former satellite states like Poland, Romania, Czech Republic and The Baltic states, Slovakia ect ect all came running by their own accord, knocking, kicking, screaming and banging at the front door of EU and NATO begging to come in, no one forced them into it .

Benjamin Franklin once said: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
So the question is Mr Trump wants to Stop The War or Stop Ukraine from resisting Russia's aggression and attack? And Donald Trump says nothing about how he will stop Russia.
That is, the rapist is justified and the victim of aggression is guilty. Everything is turned upside down..
GIVING A SURRENDER IS NOT A PEACE DEAL ITS A SHAKE DOWN !!!! Anyone can make a peace deal when they surrender, which is what Trump is asking Ukraine to do.
Trump and his admin appear to be Putin's lifeline.
Its obvious what happened. A US president tried to shake down a foreign leader for mineral rights in Ukraine. The USA has abandoned its leadership role in the world and is now just for sale.
The Republicans have lost their minds and perhaps their souls. Siding with Russia and trying to force Ukraine to accept an unjust "peace" without any security guarantees, other than you give us 50% of your natural resources rare metals your lithium, cobalt, scandium, graphite, tantalum, and niobium in Ukraine and Putin will never attack you because our companies are inside your country !!!!
WOW its was that easy all a long to scare off Putin just send American companies into Ukraine!! LOL ..... That the guarantee thats what they are now telling Zelenskyy this is what Trump and Vance are trying to sell Zelenskyy this is what they say is a security ;
WOW thats fantastic then why did the US. need to send all those weapons in the first place should have just sent in Microsoft, Ford motor company , Heinz Tomato Ketchup , Coca Cola , Mac Donalds. together with some big boys like Conoco Philips, Hecla Mining, Chevron and Goldman Sachs and last but not least The Walt Disney Company!! I hear Mickey Mouse big ears really scares Putin to death -- THEY TRYING TO PLAY UKRAINE AND FOR FOOLS SO WHO IS BEING DISRESPECTFUL HERE !!

WHAT IS IT PUTIN DOSE NOT UNDERSTAND YET !!! Yes Between Assad losing Syria, NATO adding Finland and Sweden, Russia losing tens of thousands of soldiers to a war it wasn't prepared for and thousands of prime skilled workers to emigration, and Russian money is being poured into a fruitless slaughterfest of dead Russians; ending up as fertulrzer on the battlefield and feeding the crows and ravens in east Ukraine ...I don't know how anyone can say Russia is truly "winning" right now even if they do get some more land in Ukraine..
Yes Russia is taking potato fields and a tiny worthless village in east Ukraine, yes if you can see this fruitless slaughterfest that is costing the lives of 1500++ Russian soldiers bleeding out and dying every a day as wining the war then yes you maybe right you got some potato fields and a tiny worthless village BRAVO !! (and then claiming some sort of victory is correct )
However in the meantime , Ukraine is targeting deep into Russian proper ; Ukraine is hitting every day Russian vital economic centers of the Russian economy ; Ukraine is flying its drones with impunity hitting Russias oil refinery, Russias gas and petroleum installations, Russia railways infrastructure, Russias military industrial complex, and Ukraine has been extremely effective with this type of attacks ; and Russias "air defense" attempts to stop Ukraine in attacking their infrastructure that is vital for the functioning of Russia society and its economy has proven impossible for Moscow ...
(ON A SIDE NOTE : A FACT THAT GETS OVERLOOKED IS : Ukraine army and defense is much stronger better equipment and bigger (more trained active soldiers ) now (it has become bigger not smaller over time) its better organized and has more experience more weapons more diverse weaponry more high tech weaponry now than it was back in 2013 and even back in 2022 why stronger not weaker !!
Unlike Russia it has become less equipped and has lower quality human resource
Maybe you can explain to me how a country that can not take east Ukraine for 2 years and lost its black sea navy to a country without a navy ; a country that needs to beg and kissassssss to North Korea for weapons to survive a country that can even defend its own territories in Kursk Oblast a county that is pushing in untrained men into combat because it has no more well trained soldiers left a county that is using Chinese electric golf-carts and Chinese mopeds to attack with because they so low on proper military equipment ! a country that now is so low on combat soldiers that its striping its Murmansk navy personal and forcing sailors to take up infantry fighting roles in a land army .. A country that os low of spare parts for its air force a country that has en economy that is so bad no international banks not even Chinese banks wants to touch them !!!
NOTE : Also Putin is scraping the bottom of the bucket recruiting from African countries and china and North Korea ; Putin is begging North Korea for help and Venezuela for help ALSO LETS NOT FORGET Ukraine has pushed the Russian Army all the why over the river in the south and even made a foothold on the east side of the river !! Ukraine has liberated more territory since the full scale invasion over 2 years ago than Russia has taken (is the outskirts of KYIV under Russian control like it was 2 years ago ?)
Putin is losing 1500++ soldiers a DAY if you haven't even taken all cities and villages in the Donbas how can you claim to be a victor hahaahaha
HOW IS THAT COUNTRY (RUSSIA ) GOING TO WIN !!
Maybe if some pro Russian can explain it, I can understand how.
I SAY Russia has humiliated themselves right from the start of this stupidity all the way back in 2014 and Kremlin and Putin has continuously humiliated himself and Russia ever since.
The fact the Kremlin remain in this war, even when they know they cant win, and are willing to destroy themselves just proves how totally clueless they are....adding to their humiliation so Russia is already humiliated and broken .
FACT Russia is already in a worse place than they were before invading their small neighbor, and Russia did this to themselves, the result of their stupidity is that now they have more NATO borders after Finland and Sweden moved towards joining NATO , Putin and Russia is now laughingstock of a military world , and most of their biggest customers of oil and gas are canceling their orders.
I will be amazed if Russia hasn't broken up into smaller states within the next decade or so, this is real end of nations stuff that Putins ego and vanity so-stupidly has thrown Russia into; time will show this as complete idiocy from Putin.
I serious cannot envision Russia humiliating itself any more than it has already done , but that said , Putins ego is a massive chunk of half-witted, simple, ill-considered , unwise shortsighted buffoonery and NOT the wise geo-political chess player some include Putins own ego likes to say and Putin likes to think he is ..
I mean look at Putins strategies so far: recruiting two new Nato members, selling oil at a discount to 3 world countries and giving free tanks and equipment to Ukrainian army because of those tanks running out of fuel and ammunition. YES THE Master strategist Putin. Who’s lost much more than 30% of his armor, who sacrificed innumerable Russian lives in a failed attempt to take Kyiv and Snake Island, who pushed Finland and Sweden into joining NATO, who sunk the flagship of his Navy… yesssss all going according to plan.HAHA !!

To put things in perspective, Ukraine had 176 ICBMs and over 2000 tactical nukes along with bombers able to carry them. They gave it all up in exchange for security guarantees from USA, UK and Russia ( Budapest Memorandum 1994 ). One would say that assisting Ukraine now when its being invaded should be obvious thing to do when you signed up on their security and they gave up literally thousands nukes...

Even if Putin had the launch codes (he doesn't), or the ability to order a first strike by himself (he doesn't), even he would know the response is not going to be 'more sanctions'. -- The only way I could fathom Russia using a nuclear weapon in Ukraine, or against any enemy country, is the FSB had a foolproof plan to blame am ISIS terror cell, or rogue Chechen element, or claim the Ukrainians did it in a false-flag conspiracy to frame the Russians. -- But that would require a convincing story on how such an element got the nuclear weapon 'elsewhere', and eliminating everyone involved in the planning and execution. Whatever the case, Russia would need absolute plausible deniability. -- Here's my two cents, if there was really a way to use a nuclear weapon against an enemy without equal repercussions, Russia and China (and the US) would have figured it out a long time ago and did it already.
All NATO must do is take out Moscow and 5 -6 other city's to take out all of Russia.... But Russia must take out city's all over the planet from USA , CANADA ,FRANCE UK. ALL OF EUROPE and as far away as , AUSTRALIA and so on and so on ...
United Kingdom 225 warheads (submarine delivery systems new and up to date systems )
France 300 warheads
(submarine delivery systems new and up to date systems )
United States 7,315 warheads
(Mixed delivery systems new and up to date systems )
Russia 8,000 warheads
(Mixed delivery systems old mostly from the soviet union times NOT up to date systems )
RUSSIA IS AT DISADVANTAGE !!! and they know it Putin's regime knows its and that is why they will not use nukes they will hint and shout about nukes but that's it !!

What really gets me is that some ppl. are now saying why does Ukraine not just let Russia have the areas /land it’s just a small part of Ukraine anyway.....
A small part of Ukraine ...WE ARE taking about a land mass is almost 200,000 sq km
In EU terms thats the size of Belgium, Holland, luxembourg and Greece all put together..
In UK terms that the size of all of Scotland , Wales and 80% of England all put together !!
In US terms is the size of South Carolina, West Virginia and New Jersey all put together !!
Why the f. should Ukraine give Russia all that land for what? TO ONLY be invaded some years later when Russia as had a brake and regrouped ,rebuilt its army and fortified positions !!
I SAY RUSSIA GETS TO TAKE LAND AND DEMAND UKRAINE CAN NOT JOIN NATO IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AT ALL !! Nobody wants to be a "buffer country". NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom !!!! ; The whole concept is demeaning to an independent nation. NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom and self-determination, like some sort of 2nd class country; That is not right, and Russia has no right to demand or bully Ukrainians or Ukraine to accept that Ukraine and its ppl. should become some sort of lap dog on a leash 2nd class country to serve kremlins geopolitical agenda; so Kremlin, Putin and RuZZans can feel better about themselves ...
Eastern European countries (ex soviet countries like Poland the baltic states ect ect ..) joined NATO because they are scared of Russia and want to be and stay independent. Nobody forced them to join NATO they was the ones running and knocking and begging to be able to join NATO and the EU ,,, .
When Russia invaded Ukraine Russia then just showed why it was a good idea for those countries to join NATO, because if they didn't they might just have got invaded as well just like Ukraine and Georgia did .
During Soviet times those Eastern European countries were nothing less than Russia puppet states. If they didn't join NATO after the fall of the USSR then they for sure couldn't guarantee their own independence from Russia.
Nato did nothing wrong, the only mistake was Ukraine not joining NATO to ensure Ukraines independence; Remember former satellite states like Poland, Romania, Czech Republic and The Baltic states, Slovakia ect ect all came running by their own accord, knocking, kicking, screaming and banging at the front door of EU and NATO begging to come in, no one forced them into it .
If Russia was not such a asshole country and stoped constantly bulling neighboring countries maybe other neighboring countries will not need to join NATO and by more open and welcoming to Russia ..
Also these people who advocate this view that Ukraine shroud just give up land and appeasement to Russians wants wishes are also being very ignorant to the fact that there were already treaties in place between Russia and Ukraine where Russia respecting the integrity of Ukraine's borders plus other treaties relating to the seas around Ukraine.
Putin has already broken those treaties.
Why would Ukraine believe Putin would stick to a new treaty when he's just broken half a dozen of the previous Russia Ukraine treaties and agreements.
Russia has demonstrated its treaties and agreements are worthless and you enter them at your great peril.

US. and UK., gave Ukraine a guarantee of protecting Ukraine sovereignty and territorial integrity based on the 1991 borders that included Crimea and east Ukraine Luhansk and Donbass..
As of the result of the Budapest Memorandum of 1994, US., gave Ukraine a guarantee that the US, stands now as a grantor of Ukraine sovereignty , becouse Ukraine gave up their nuclear weapons and back then, Ukraine had the world's third-largest nuclear weapons stockpile !!
This guarantee was reconfirmed by United States when in 2009 released a statement that the memorandum's security assurances would still be respected after the expiration of the START Treaty
After the annexation of Crimea by in 2014, The US, Canada, the UK, France along with other countries, stated that Russian involvement was a breach of its obligations to Ukraine under the Budapest Memorandum and in violation of Ukrainian sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Let me explain and give some Content !!
According to the Budapest Memorandum of 1994, Russia, the US and the UK confirmed their recognition of Ukraine becoming parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and effectively abandoning their nuclear arsenal to Russia and that they would:
1. Respect Ukrainian independence and sovereignty in the existing borders.
2. Refrain from the threat or the use of force against Ukraine.
3. Refrain from using economic pressure on Ukraine to influence their politics.
4. Seek immediate action to provide assistance Ukraine if they "should become a victim of an act of aggression or an object of a threat of aggression in which nuclear weapons are used".
5. Refrain from the use of nuclear arms against Ukraine.
6. Consult with one another if questions arise regarding those commitments
We need to understand that EITHER the word/ deals and / or the grantees of the west are worth something or they are not !!

Let's see it form this side ; See it from a different angle.
If America was invaded by its neighboring country say Mexico or Canada or Russia that borders Alaska and Russia says for historical reasons (Alaska used to be Russian ) we are taking Alaska becouse it used to be part of Russia so we are taking back ; could you imagine what America would say? will Trump and Vance and the US just let Russia take Alaska in the ints. of world peace !!???
if the rest of the world said that Mexico can just walking in as an aggressor and can take back Texas to New Mexico and all land all the way to Nevada, will US agree to that in the ints. of world peace ?? Will America agree to not be part of any pace talks and be put on the side line and just let European Union or China deal with Putin over Alaska to make peace with Russia for taking Alaska .. becouse Russia has nuclear weapons ?..
The EU goes in and asked Putin for a pace talk to make a deal on how things will be regarding Putin getting Alaska back AND THE EU TELLS the US. you don't get to come to the "pace talks"
I don't think Trump or the American people would agree to "make pace" so why would and should Ukraine agree to their country being carved up and given to Putin. Throughout this last year that's how American thought has been perceived in the West. This so called 'deal' is not a commodity to be bought or sold.
LIKE i have said before ... Benjamin Franklin once said: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
Trump says just give up on wanting your cities, your land back your people , back ; becouse its just a small bitt of landmass anyway that Russia wants so just give it up and we all can have some peace ..
lets get the facts correct here 120,000 km2 of land we are talking about here ..
For the European Union that land mass will be about the same as Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg alltogether..
And for the United Kingdom we are talking about Scotland and all but of England all put together !!
When it comes to how much land that is for America South Carolina, West Virginia will have been lost !!
Why the f. should Ukraine give Russia all that land for what? TO ONLY be invaded some years later when Russia as had a brake and regrouped ,rebuilt its army and fortified positions !!
I SAY RUSSIA GETS TO TAKE LAND AND DEMAND UKRAINE CAN NOT JOIN NATO IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AT ALL !! Nobody wants to be a "buffer country". NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom !!!! ; The whole concept is demeaning to an independent nation. NO nation wants to have a little bit of freedom and self-determination, like some sort of 2nd class country; That is not right, and Russia has no right to demand or bully Ukrainians or Ukraine to accept that Ukraine and its ppl. should become some sort of lap dog on a leash 2nd class country to serve kremlins geopolitical agenda; so Kremlin, Putin and RuZZans can feel better about themselves ..
FACT ; December 1974, Definition of Aggression, United Nations General Assembly Resolution 3314 (XXIX) Article 5:
1. No consideration of whatever nature, whether political, economic, military or otherwise, may serve as a justification for aggression.
2. A war of aggression is a crime against international peace. Aggression gives rise to international responsibility.
3. No territorial acquisition or special advantage resulting from aggression is or shall be recognized as lawful. (*this includes any deals on minerals made under pressure*)

ON A SIDE NOTE : Even Igor Gerkin (aka ; Igor Strelkov) has no illusions about Russia is loosing in Ukraine her wrote this article take a look ..
Speculations on what would be good not to come true (for the coming year 2025)
So, the situation for the Russian Federation is characterized negatively: by the end of the third year of the FULL OUT INVASION, none of the tasks declared earlier as “goals of the NWO” has been fulfilled or is close to fulfillment:
1) The “Zelensky regime” has not been overthrown, but is holding on tighter than in 2022. “Under the war” the ‘derusification’ of Ukraine continued at an accelerated pace, the UOC of the Moscow Patriarchate was reformed, Nazi propaganda ‘brainwashed’ the population, hatred of Russia not only did not decrease, but increased manifold.
2) No “demilitarization of Ukraine” was achieved. On the contrary, - in front of our front there is a huge (several hundred thousand) group, armed hardly better than before the beginning of SWO, well organized, experienced, resistant and (despite the fatigue from the war) not showing any signs of soon disintegration. Part of this group is fighting on the territory of the “old regions” of the Russian Federation - in the Kursk region, from where our troops have failed to dislodge the enemy for more than 4 months. The AFU is increasing missile and drone attacks on the deep rear of our troops, reaching up to the Volga and beyond, hitting industrial and infrastructural facilities on an increasing scale from month to month.
3) The territories of the “new regions” (except for the Luhansk People's Republic) have not been liberated from the enemy: the enemy continues to firmly hold the capital and the right-bank part of the Kherson region, the capital and a significant part of the Zaporizhzhya region, and significant territories of the DNR. Our successes in Kharkiv region are insignificant and have not gone beyond the purely tactical. There is no chance that all “constitutional” territories of the Russian Federation can be liberated militarily in the near future.
To summarize - the NWO - in the form in which it started - has failed (has not achieved its objectives).
At one time one general, looking at the field of an already lost battle, said to Napoleon: “The battle is lost, but we still have time to win a second one.” (this was at the Battle of Marengo, which ended with the defeat of the seemingly victorious Austrian army). The point is that General Desaix brought reserves with him and they completely changed the course of the battle.
Do we and the enemy have reserves?
In the first case - the answer is ambiguous. Theoretically, yes. There are, and very significant. We still do not have a country at war, only the army is at war. There has been no mobilization of the armed forces and industry (the rear, the entire economy, etc.), except for individual (non-complex) measures of a “one-off” nature. As a result, we still have a significant mobilization potential, which, theoretically, could be used.
But “in practice” - we have a completely opposite and depressing picture: the army, which did not receive timely and sufficient means for a decisive victory, is exhausted and exsanguinated. Its forces are still enough to hold the front and even in some places (“turtle step”) to move forward with difficulty, winning purely tactical (but very “expensive”) successes. But the prospects for a strategic victory - to defeat the opposing forces of the enemy and force him (at least!) to sign a peace “on our terms” are more than doubtful. Simply put, our troops can “stall for time in the hope of chance” for quite a long time, but they cannot win. In its current form, at least.
Will general mobilization help us now (I emphasize!)? - I find it difficult to answer this question unequivocally. On the one hand, Napoleon (as in the battle of Marengo) would have been able to skillfully use all the reserves that came up. On the other hand, we somehow do not have “Napoleons”.
Both the country, the army and the population are already very tired of the three-year bloody and not very successful, to put it mildly, military campaign. The industry acutely feels the shortage of technical resources, and the stock of military equipment is apparently close to exhaustion (“thanks” to the “Syrian adventure”, “sales” for free/on credit from Rosoboronexport, “gifts” to “our African friends”, etc., etc.). I am not sure (I have no information, but I have my doubts): can the Ministry of Defense now arm, clothe, educate, train, organize, feed, form into units and formations, and then put into combat at least half a million more fighters? And for a strategic victory over “Ukraine” alone (I emphasize!) we need no less (and as if not one and a half or two times more), and these half a million should be “put to the front” not by “bringing water in glasses”, but at once or (in the extreme case) in two or three steps.
In addition to the “technical points” there is a second question: how will the country/people feel about this very general mobilization now - after “three years of bloody drudgery”? Instead of the long-awaited large reserves for the front, won't we get “fuel” for a revolt of the mobilized? Similar to what happened in Petrograd in February 1917? And there are prerequisites for this, as there are (I am more than sure of it) and forces in the so-called “elite” ready to initiate such a revolt, the discontent of the “liberal-western” part of which is hardly a secret for the country's leadership and special services. It seems that I am not alone in thinking of such negative options.... Perhaps they are taken into account in determining the “course for the earliest possible peaceful settlement”, which has already been openly proclaimed (just today I heard it performed by the patriarch): “Peace, you say? - Well, as we know. “A bad peace is better than a good war.”
But will Moscow expect this very “thin peace”? - I personally doubt it... And to demonstrate the validity of my doubts, I am going to characterize the situation (according to my estimates, of course) in the camp of the enemy. And I state: while waging an all-out war, the AFU has reserves. They have them both now and in the near future. According to various (reaching me) data, from 150 to 300 thousand newly mobilized soldiers are undergoing combat training in the EU countries. Plus, a part of the military is being trained in the so-called “Ukraine” itself. Let's subtract (for a fair account) 100 thousand deserters, “evaders”, etc. - and still we will get another 200 thousand enemy soldiers at the front by the spring of 2025. Let's assume that half of them will go to re-staff the broken and shattered units and formations. But even 100 thousand soldiers is, in fact, 3-4 full-fledged corps (or two armies). Which the enemy is preparing (receiving equipment from the U.S. and Europe, which are the “inviolable rear” of the AFU) not for a “truce”, but, of course, for his new offensive. And until it “burns” these (as well as newly created) reserves in a new attempt to break through our front, the so-called “Ukraine” will not agree to any truce. Even if it is suddenly “cut off” supplies of arms and equipment from the U.S. (supplies from Britain, France and Germany will continue this year with a 99% probability).
That is - in the next 4-6 months there will be no truce for sure, and the further depends solely on how successfully and efficiently our Armed Forces will repel another “onslaught” of a strong, experienced and well-armed enemy. I would like to believe that the “attack” will be as successful as it was in the summer of 2023, but even when it becomes a fact from an assumption, the question of “what to do next?” will remain on the agenda. - will remain on the agenda. Since there is only one “Ukraine” fighting against us today, and who might join it tomorrow is an uncertain question. But there are “candidates” - “limited participation” of NATO troops - already discussed and even put on the agenda at the highest level in the EU countries. Romania's participation in the liquidation of the unfortunate Transnistria is very likely, and after the events in Syria, it is even awkward to discuss the “reliability of a Turkish friend”....
In order for vultures to be afraid of “flying to the corpse of their prey”, it is necessary to be able to show that we are “still very much alive”. And this again requires real successes on the front. And they will not be achieved if large and well-trained (and also manageable!) reserves are not prepared.
“Our song is good - start again...”. Perhaps these words can be put in the title of this letter. If it reaches you, of course.
Igor Strelkov

Understand this simple fact ..
TRUMP dose not support Russia ;
TRUMP dose not support Ukraine ;
TRUMP dose not support NATO ;
TRUMP dose not support Europe ;
TRUMP dose not support UK;
TRUMP dose not support AMERICA ;
TRUMP ONLY SUPPORTS TRUMP !!!!
Trump will act in what he sees as his best interest regardless of what that is ; So if he directly benefits or indirectly benefits siding with anyone or anything he WILL DO THAT !!
All you need do, if you want Trumps backing is simple just sweeten the honey pot , more than the other guy , show Trump he has more to directly and indirectly to gain standing with you contra the other guy !!
(Trump is deal oriented not ideology orientated ; remember Trump does not think in abstract teams in the traditional sense he is often inconsistent in the way he applies his values, his political action and ideas , etc etc. to his political stands / beliefs (take a look at his actions not his words ) he can change direction within a flash if he believes its more beneficial to him ) Concepts like fairness, justice, honor, and integrity quite literally do not register. You can see this in every interview or press encounter. He never states an abstract thought or idea.
"Instead he falls back on simple adjectives: disgraceful, horrible, low-intelligence, perfect, innocent, nasty, stupid, fake, etc. He's driven by negative emotion, often paranoid and often insulting, vulgar, vitriolic." (he will one day talk extremely ill of someone if he believes it benefits him the next day he will make them into The Vice President if he thinks it benefits Trump; JD Vance was one point knocking heads with Trump now he is VP, As the poles showed JD was very popular within the Republican base .
Trump will say someone is the worst enemy of the US. then the next day he will flip flop and shake their hand just look at Kim Jong Un of North Korea ; one day he was the rocket man that Trump was going to nuke then the next day he was his best friend (when trump though making a deal will give trump a noble pace prize) ; now Kim is back in the Trump bad box )
TRUMP IS FOR TRUMP ITS THAT SIMPLE UNDERSTAND THIS AND ITS GAME SETT AND MATCH WHEN DEALING WITH HIM !!

THE MYTH … The USSR defeated-nazigermany without the help of allies. The Russian forces could have won the war without the help of other nationalities of the Soviet Union
THE TRUTH Soviet textbooks described the role of Soviet allies in the war in a rather superficial manner. While they are blamed for allowing the occupation of the Czech republic and waited till the last moment to open up the Second front, little is said about US help as part of the lend-lease program.
During the Cold War, this myth was particularly important, as it elevated the contribution of the Soviet Union and diminished the contributions of its allies who were now on the other side of the Iron Wall. Today, in line with the growing isolation of Russia from the West, this myth is once again accentuated, one recent example being the book of now-Minister of Culture of Russia Volodymyr Medynsky “War. Myths of the USSR. 1939-1945.”
In reality, the lend-lease was one of the decisive factors in the victory of the Allied forces against the Axis. The USSR, and Russia as its successor, still has not repaid its debt for the lend-lease to the USA.
According to different estimates, western equipment added up to:
* 12-16% of the equipment of the Soviet armored troops;
* 10-15% of USSR’s aviation
* 32.4% of its Navy.
Up to 70% of the transport of the Soviet army came from the USA, meaning that the Soviet army drove around mainly on US cars. While the USSR released only 600 trucks for mounting “Katyusha” mortars, the USA contributed 20,000 American Studebaker trucks, making it the main vehicle for Soviet artillery. Apart from that, the lend-lease program gave USSR 56% of its railroad tracks and 43% of tires; 42% of it sugar, 108% of meat preserves, 18% of aviation fuel.
The amount of locomotives that the West provided exceeded the USSR’s production by 2.4 times and the amount of train cars – by 10.2 times. The amount of food that the USSR received as part of the lend-lease would have been enough to feed a 10-million army over 1688 days, i.e. the whole course of the war.
THE MYTH…. For the USSR, World War II started on 22 June 1941. The proper name of the war is the “Great Patriotic War,” because the USSR was defending itself against the-nazzi-invasion
THE TRUTH .. In reality , the USSR started the war on 17 September 1939, when the Red Army crossed the border with Poland, occupying it in accordance to the union between the Third Reich and Soviet Union, outlined by the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact. “German and Soviet troops walked hand in hand. This was called a ‘military brotherhood’ in the USSR, before the war broke out,” noted Oleksandr Zinchenko from the Institute of National Memory. After Hitler started the war in Europe, the USSR provided economic assistance to-nazigermany-The USSR attempted to conceal these facts of collaboration with Hitler with the concept of the “Great Patriotic War,” which started out as a mere ideological cliché pronounced by Joseph Stalin during a radio broadcast on 3 July 1941, after-nazigermany-invaded Soviet Ukraine.
Today, the concept of “Great Patriotic War” is being used by the Russian Federation as an alternative to World War II in attempts to maintain its influence on Ukraine and post-Soviet republics.
THE MYTH.. The USSR is an innocent victim of German aggression and was always an enemy of the-nazzis-and did not work with them
THE TRUTH..: The USSR signed a non-aggression pact with-nazigermany-the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, that not only defined broad economic cooperation with the Third Reich and agreement on mutual non-aggression, but also contained a secret protocol by which the USSR and Germany agreed to divide up Europe.
During Soviet times, and in Russia today, the existence of the-nazi–Soviet-pact was explained as a necessity that came only after fruitless negotiations with Britain and France, and that the invasions of Poland were unconnected to the pact. In fact, Stalin willingly ruined attempts to establish an anti-Hitler coalition. During 12-21 August 1939, negotiations with Britain and France about collaborating to meet growing security challenges associated with the Third Reich took place in Moscow, but did not amount to an agreement because the Soviet leadership demanded the right to occupy Poland’s regions Halychyna and Vilenska Oblast (today, western regions of Ukraine and Belarus), which the other side could not condone.
Both Stalin and Hitler were unsatisfied with the world order that came about after World War I, which made their collaboration natural. On 19 August 1939, Stalin spoke about the necessity to urge Europe into a great war, which would be an overture to a “world revolution;” on 23 August 1939, the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact was signed, outlining broad economic cooperation between the USSR and the Third Reich, and violating the sovereignty and territorial integrity of a range of independent countries.
In addition to the stated clauses of the Molotov-Ribbentrop non-aggression pact, a secret protocol was adopted, dividing territories of Romania, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and Finland into German and Soviet “spheres of influence”, anticipating potential “territorial and political rearrangements” of these countries. The Kremlin denied the existence of the secret protocol to the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact up to 1992.
The Soviet-nazi-military collaboration is undeniably clear in photographs from the German–Soviet military parade in Brest-Litovsk on 22 September 1939 during the invasion of Poland.
The pact had the most tragic consequences for European nations and the world; it is this agreement that became the mechanism opening the doors for a new world war. What followed was the invasion of Poland by-nazigermany-and the USSR, followed by the further carving up of Europe.

RONNY REAGAN TOLD IT AS IT IS...
Our enemies may be irrational, even outright insane, driven by nationalism, religion, ethnicity or ideology. They do not fear the United States for its diplomatic skills or the number of automobiles and software programs it produces. They respect only the firepower of our tanks, planes and helicopter gunships." - Ronald Reagan
Ronald Reagan at the time was talking about the Russian controlled soviet union and the soviet union ALSO HAD Nuclear weapons and soviet union was controlled by the same type of personality types as KGB Putin after all Putin is a product of the soviet KGB...
And just like KGB Putin the soviets also did a lot of shouting about using Nuclear weapons and wiping out the west and wiping out Europe from the face of the earth ect ect ect...bla bla bla bla ,,,,,
Yes talking big is typical for Russians they like to intimidate.. It is not the big talkers you need to be afraid off it is the ones that don't talk and just act... Just like the USA when they bombed japan not 1 time but 2 times ...
BIG TALKING RUSSIA'S have never dropped the bomb as they just like to intimidate like all cowards and bullies do..
“Putin bases his policies on Lenin’s principle: probe with bayonets; if you encounter mush, proceed; if you encounter steel, withdraw,” “With Obama, and Angela Merkel the thug that is KGB Putin has encountered mush never hard core steel, and that’s why Putin continues to challenge the west time after time.”
Putin will NOT use Nuclear weapons if he or when he invades Ukraine !!!
AND HERE IS WHY !!
1. If he did use Nuclear weapons then he will be not just nuking Ukraine but the fallout will hit Europe and the Baltic ’s the blast and fallout will also hit East Ukraine, Crimea, Poland Belorussia, and parts of Russia as well ect..
2. If he bombed Ukraine Putin will get the orthodox church against him for taking out Pecerska Lavra and make the Lavra into a nuclear wasteland for 1000 years the center of orthodox faith in the world and the far right orthodox is Putin's power base at home losing the orthodox church will be political suicide for Putin,,
3. How will it look like if he bombed Ukraine and the fallout of the blast will rain down onto Russians in Europe and in Ukraine millions of Russians live in the EU and Ukraine now and all of the Russian elite children in schools in western Europe, even Putin's own daughter and ex-wife live in Holland..
It is not like back in the day of the USSR when almost no Russian was living in Europe, and in the Baltic’s 20% are ethnic Russians in Ukraine, 17,6 % are ethnic Russians.. How can he claim to be defending Russians abroad if he is nuking them ??
4.If he did this than any friends he has in the international community will run for cover and distance themselves from him and RuSSia in every way they can, they will admit openly that Putin is a mad man, that needs to be taken out asap..even his good old buddy in Syria Assad and his good buddy in Minsk Mr Lukanhesko will not return his phone calls and run for cover.
5. Russia will become an international outcast and pariah state and diplomatic relations with the rest of the world will be over even including China, Venezuela, North Korea, Iran, and every other nut job country will cut off diplomatic relations with Russia !!..
6.USA and NATO and its allies and even most likely even Japan (and probably even China) will respond with an all-out attack on Russia and Putin and Moscow will only be left in history books just like the soviet union is now ...
7.Putin like Hitler and Stalin is a very smart calculated psychopath he is not crazy or insane and does not have a political death wish or any other type of death wish for that matter, he pushes as far as he feels he can and then backs down if he feels he gets pushed back, and if he doesn't get pushed back he continues until he does.
Like I have said before ...
“Putin bases his policies on Lenin’s principle: probe with bayonets; if you encounter mush, proceed; if you encounter steel, withdraw, “With Angela Merkel and Obama the KGB thug that is Putin has only encountered mush never any real HARDCORE steel, and that’s why he continues to challenge the world time after time.”
Russia’s sphere of influence..
Well I say Russia’s sphere of influence argument is a big propaganda clam, Russia has no special rights to tell Ukraine or the Baltics nations what they as a nation can do or not do...,
Russia can not just because it borders those nation tell them what it can or do or not do anymore then Russia can tell Norway or Finland what they can or cannot do because they border Russia..or any other country say China that also borders Russia..
Can Russia tell USA what it can do because it borders Alaska ?
No Russia does not have any special rights over Ukraine or the Baltic nations this is absolutely hogwash sovereign nations are just that sovereign nations after all we are living in 2022 not 1722 .. Mr KGB Putin !!
IF Putin hurts one hair on the head of any NATO nation or the USA then all of NATO will respond
And her is a bombshell....that Putin must also know as Putin is crazy but he is NOT stupid ..
When it comes to firepower USA and the west is unto in some cases up-to 19 times the size of Russia ... Just take f. exs.
Now let's take a look at the nuclear weapons !!
Putin lose her as well and he know it !!!
United Kingdom 225 warheads (submarine delivery systems new and up to date systems )
France 300 warheads
(submarine delivery systems new and up to date systems )
United States 6,970 warheads
(Mixed delivery systems new and up to date systems )
Russia 7,300 warheads
(Mixed delivery systems old mostly from the soviet union times NOT up to date systems )
SO THAT GIVES NATO TOTAL of 7485 warheads with up to date delivery systems..
AND THAT PUTS RUSSIA AT A DISADVANTAGE of 195 warheads with substandard old delivery systems..
See link here for confirmation of nukes in the world www.icanw.org/the-facts/nuclear-arsenals/
Nations that are hosting nuclear weapons for other NATO nuclear powers are Belgium, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Turkey...
Nations in NATO nuclear alliances..(will take nukes fire systems on their territory if war broke out )
Albania, Australia, Bulgaria, Canada, Croatia, Czech, Denmark, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Korea, Spain ALL NATO or NATO friendly..
Base on this facts Russia does not stand a chance as most of NATO warheads are on Subs. and NOT in silos like Russia that makes it easy to take out with NATOs defiance systems ...
All NATO must do is take out Moscow and 5 -6 other cities to take out all of Russia....
But Russia must take out city's all over the planet from USA , CANADA ,FRANCE UK. ALL OF EUROPE and as fare away as , AUSTRALIA and so on and so on ...
A good exs. of how bad Russian systems really are is…
The Soviet-made rocket was fired on the town in 30 kilometres to South-West of Aleppo Putins forces attacked the town in Syria with ballistic missile – but missed all of the town "The town of Ma'arat al-Na'asan, 30 km S-W of Aleppo, was attacked (missed) by a Russian SS-21 ballistic missile and the missiles did not hit any part of the town ,

It is not Putin who made modern Russia or Russians, it is Russia and Russians who made Putin !!!.
James Monroe 5th US President in his First Inaugural Address, 1817 he said ..
“A Government is a reflection of the people; it is only when the people become ignorant and corrupt, when they degenerate into a populace, that they are incapable of exercising their sovereignty.Usurpation is then an easy attainment, and an usurper soon found. The people themselves become the willing instruments of their own debasement and ruin."
I SAY … Putin is just a symptom of the diseased psychotic nation that is Russia..
Like James Monroe says .. The Voices of Government Reflect the People..
The Russian people endorsement of the evil of Putin's regime is without parallel any other place on earth 89% support him in his evil and have voted for him time after time after time….
After all the Russians do know the truth about Putin by now, they know who he is, what he does , what he will do, and what he has done, it should come as no surprise to any Russian, what they are voting for after soon 20 years with Putin in power THEY KNOW ALL ABOUT HIM !!
Even when Putin himself was NOT able to run for President back in 2008, and the Russians, had a chance to vote for another direction, what did they do?? They voted in Putin's boy Dmitry Medvedev for president, the Russians had the changes to vote for Boris Nemtsov and therefor freedom, rule of law and democracy but NO THEY VOTE for Putins boy Dmitry Medvedev for president, because that was the next best thing to voting for Putin !!!
So the Russians NO longer have an excuse, they are responsible for the actions that the evil regime they support and they have voted for time after time after time….
The few that is good and it is only a handful at best.... are not worth all the other 99.99999% evil little scummy trolls that comes with the handful of god ones..
THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE LIKE EVIL, THEY LIKE STALIN, THEY LIKE PUTIN AND THAT IS WHAT THEY RESPECT AND LOVE AND THEIR VOTING SHOWS THIS FACT .....

Appeasement & Armageddon: Giving in to Vladimir Putin’s nuclear blackmail will spark an unprecedented nuclear arms race and make a future nuclear war far more likely!! There is a reason why the Soviet Union, nor any nuclear power, never launched a first strike (nuclear attack) since World War 2, despite all of the Cold War fears that the Soviets would.
And it’s because you can't launch a first strike without being annihilated in the second strike. I remember in the 80s when The Day After aired, and everyone hoped the Soviets would see the movie and learn the lesson. Probably not realizing the Soviets can be trusted to act in the best self-interests...which mutually assured destruction is clearly against... and that the Soviets knew this since the 60s, if not the 50s. -- How is it any different today?
Even if Putin had the launch codes (he doesn't), or the ability to order a first strike by himself (he doesn't), even he would know the response is not going to be 'more sanctions'. -- The only way I could fathom Russia using a nuclear weapon in Ukraine, or against any enemy country, is the FSB had a foolproof plan to blame am ISIS terror cell, or rogue Chechen element, or claim the Ukrainians did it in a false-flag conspiracy to frame the Russians. -- But that would require a convincing story on how such an element got the nuclear weapon 'elsewhere', and eliminating everyone involved in the planning and execution. Whatever the case, Russia would need absolute plausible deniability. --
Here's my two cents, if there was really a way to use a nuclear weapon against an enemy without equal repercussions, Russia and China (and the US) would have figured it out a long time ago and did it already.
All NATO must do is take out Moscow and 5 -6 other cities to take out all of Russia.... But Russia must take out city's all over the planet from
USA , CANADA ,FRANCE UK. ALL OF EUROPE and as far away as , AUSTRALIA and so on and so on ...
United Kingdom 225 warheads (submarine delivery systems new and up to date systems )
France 300 warheads
(submarine delivery systems new and up to date systems )
United States 7,315 warheads
(Mixed delivery systems new and up to date systems )
Russia 8,000 warheads
(Mixed delivery systems old mostly from the soviet union times NOT up to date systems )
RUSSIA IS AT DISADVANTAGE !!! and they know it Putin's regime knows its and that is why they will not use nukes they will hint and shout about nukes but that's it !!
