  1. I know this is taken from the pro- Ukraine direction but I respect their care to give a fair view of what’s happening.

  2. Nuclear power is by far the safest and least cost energy source we have. FSB used “green” politics go undermine the industry. Russia benefited from gas sales and operators had to handle the legacy costs.

  3. Pray do tell where they are similar …

  4. The Russian Navy has been rolled into Sea of Azov. But that’s little more than a flooded beach. Its average depth is just 7 metres (23 feet). Try hiding a submarine in that.

  5. They are certainly striking the counter - in frustration.

  6. How many of the newly appointed Russian Generals will take the chance to surrender? They have no chance of winning (especially in Kherson), but more importantly they were not in control when the many atrocities were committed. Unlike their predecessors, they can pull the plug and not go down as war criminals.

  7. Russia has shown one video almost certainly filmed before the attack and another where he never speaks or moves. Hardly convincing evidence that he’s not KIA.

  8. Lenin and Mao are almost certainly wax models.

  9. The areas of Ukraine that Russia has taken were basically handed over. Russia clearly had moles in Ukraine military and local government.

  10. In 1989, Mathias Rust flew a Cessna light aircraft across Russia and landed in Moscow Red Square. Russian air defence did nothing and when jets were scrambled the pilots had no idea what to do. Nothing has changed.

  11. Leaders in UK, Europe and USA are all dogma with zero judgment. The new outfit running UK is even worse than the last lot.

  12. This is why Putin will keep the W going. He will tell his people to keep fighting and rebuild the Russian military.

  13. Biden has the perfect opportunity to achieve victory in Ukraine and Crimea. For some reason he won’t let Ukraine take the necessary steps. Biden is afraid to beat Putin. He really is.

  14. Revolution - not going to happen. Russian people don’t care. AFU marching up there - not going to happen. Moscow has zero strategic value.

  15. East Germany is still beholden to its Soviet past. Their greens are fully signed up with KGB money. UK admits ever more young men from the almost Soviet parts of Eastern Europe and the corrupt Middle East. USA leaders want to pretend “equity” is more important than ability while hoping that Russia can be contained to Ukraine and no more. They are all deluded.

  16. Harris should be using General Hodges. But Obama will continue to run the show so nothing will change. Any ability to make decisions will continue at the ridiculous slow rate we’ve had since 2012.

  17. There’s a few good Ukraine commentators. But these guys are as good as it gets. We font get anything from Russians because (1) speaking truth about power is dangerous (2) anyone with influence is part of the problem.

  18. Psychopath, Sociopath and cult leader.

  19. When (not if) China takes Manchuria, they will get the blue water port they’ve always coveted. The surprise is that it’s taking so long to happen.

  20. US operational security leaked Ukraine plans to a gaming chat server. Trust is broken.

  21. WW2 happened because WW1 stopped with unfinished business. WW1 would not have happened if UK had kept out of it.

  22. Green politics (a cover for communism), woke, carbon zero are all useful idiots.

  23. Trump is a Russian asset. His choice of VP is hard proof. If Trump cons enough to vote for him, he will crimp off all help to Ukraine. And World War III (nook or otherwise) will be even more likely.

  24. Putin/Russia will drag this war for as long as possible. If they can’t have Ukraine, nobody else will get anything worth having.

  25. I believe Crimea is unlikely to be directly taken by Ukraine. More likely, they’ll box it up in order to starve and desiccate the occupation forces

  26. I believe Trump is using Ukraine to force EU and Europe to wake up and take control. If Trump continues to support Ukraine, EU will do nothing. If Trump pulls out EU has to fix the massive problem sitting on their border. EU has to stop dithering and make it happen. EU can buy US weapons and Bradleys. Stop dithering.

  27. It’s a shame Biden’s economist in charge of the American approach to Ukraine can’t (or refuses to) understand this point

  28. This war, serious demographic problems and Chinese debt have already broken the globalist world order. There is no need to choose between Putin and Schwab. They are both done except the latter still thinks he is relevant.
