great to see Ukraine is making all the necessary repairs in time for the peace talks when Ukraine is forced to hand over both Odessa and Kharkov.

and the fact you don't even know the place is called Avdeevka tells me this is all fiction.

@thegreatdane3627 they will hand over what Russia demands because Ukraine is fast running out of men, weapons, ammo, financial support from the bankrupt West, and political support from the US. If you had kept your eye on the polls, you would see the West is fed up of ad infinitum bailing out of Ukraine. but let's hear your analysis. when exactly do you envisage Ukrainian troops parading victoriously through the streets of Sevastopol?:)

@haydotherapper5401 true, but remember, the Great Dane only looks at territory and in particular Bakhmut, there are no other factors in his war analysis, just which field and which village is occupied by which power! infantile, i know, but that is how he sees things.

@jebbo-c1l with every Ukrainian cannon fodder that Zelensky sends into the meatgrinder, and Zelensky is now down to sending teenagers, pensioners and women, Putin gets a step closer to the day when it just tells Zelensky the cities that will become Russian as part of the peace treaty. BTW, how about you list all the settlements recaptured by Ukraine after 6 months of the great counter offensive!

@thegreatdane3627 as if the front line will determine anything about this conflict! learn what a war of attrition is all about.

@bonnie7898 look at the state of Ukraine's finances and the kill rate Russia has imposed on Ukrainian fighters and you will understand what the big push is all about. Learn what a war of attrition is all about. Grasp reality.

@loddiecamomileparrot why would Russia ever want to "take Kiev"? makes no sense.

@thegreatdane3627 and when the front line has barely moved, Russia has won. Russia's aims are no NATO membership for Ukraine, demilitarization of Ukraine (Zelensky is helping with that one, now that he is shoving teenagers, pensioners and women into the Russian meatgrinder), denazification (no one is talking about the Azovs and their influence in Ukrainian politics is now dead), Crimea remains part of Russian Federation, and the Donbass becomes part of Russia. No movement in the front line means Russia is MUCH closer to its objectives than Ukraine is to its objectives. Stalemate = win for Russia

@Kartoffelsuppe_m_Wursteinlage why take "the rest"? makes no sense. not all of Ukraine belongs in Russia.

@oleksandrdemchyshyn2452 "dreamer"...same word used to describe the brave people of the Donbass when they announced they would separate from Kiev! Dreams come true, sometimes.

@bonnie7898 it is speculation, based on logic and an understanding of the events and background of the situation, that lead me to conclude that there is an excellent chance the ethnically Russian cities of Odessa and Kharkov will end up in Russian hands. Seems like you are having a tough time differentiating between speculation and fact, but that would be par for the course for your child's mind.
