  1. Depends. If it’s a “partner” of the US, then nothing. If not a partner, then sanctions and war.

  2. Oh there are. The Ukraine MoD has branded them the Valkyries of Ukraine.

  3. Karkhiv is about to become symbolic and not strategic.

  4. Surprised western media is finally acknowledging this.

  5.  @weandyrfc7  where are you getting those numbers? And how many AFU are lost each day?

  6.  @nozhki-busha  it’s a fair deal. Ukraine won’t get any better after this.

  7. The solution is clear: The US must go back to war with Afghanistan.

  8.  @oleksii000  who do you think was killing people in the Donbas in 2014?

  9. If you are going to fight under a banner that isn't your own, then just admit it's for the money. If you are trying to find meaning in your life, that is a terrible reason to go to war.

  10. America's gift that keeps on giving.

  11.  @anacc3257  yes it has. And shelling civilians is not defense, it’s retaliation. And a war crime.

  12.  @proselytizingorthodoxpente8304 nope. It was US Gen. Milley that said “3 days.”
    3
  13.  @kokica007 no Russian ever said that. It was Gen. Milley’s prediction for 3 days.

  14. So…no need to send any more weapons, money, satellite/aerial intel, etc. right?

  15.  @RobBCactive  Russia clearly stated their goals of de-militarization and de-nazification. Show me where they said destroying Ukraine was ever the objective?

  16.  @monarchist1838  you mean only the collective West.

  17. What are you suggesting, here?
    3
  18.  @takeitasacompliment. 3,000+ gone? And yet, there are still so many Russia tanks yet to enter combat. Math isn’t adding up. Are you using Zelensky math?

  19. They’ve been accurate in most of their assessments.
    3
  20. Any cursory search and you’ll see NATO mercenaries were stationed there.
    3
  21. 31,000? Zelensky is clearly not a reliable source of information. Maybe 31,000 in Avdiivka is believable, but if it’s that number since 2022, then he insults everyone’s intelligence.

  22. More like they are sobering up to reality. Europe needs to deal with its neighbors, while the US does not.

  23.  @Defiant1940  when is the next election in Ukraine?

  24. Poroshenko ghoulishly said the kids in Donbas would live in cellars. And look how the tables turned.

  25. Those are powerful shovels.

  26. He’s there to break the bad news that there’s another nation they’re in love with…

  27.  @ZeroGravity60  I'd like to see the Russian readout of that statement. Too often, the Western media distorts Putin's words.

  28. Who wrote the checks?
    3
  29. @inquerion8867 and the Krynky marines!!!!
    3
  30.  @andrewadams6905  yes, the talks were in March. The withdrawal was in April (also when BoJo visited). So the withdrawal came after the talks.

  31. Which is true. As it gobbles up the Donbas. Not paying attention there anymore, huh?
    3
  32. And they took Marinka weeks ago. Ukraine front is crumbling on all sides.

  33.  @JDurand888 population doesn’t matter. It was the most heavily fortified city along a fortress belt that NATO had been building since 2014. If it’s so pointless, then why is the AFU sending men into another meatgrinder like Bakhmut?
    3
  34.  @jackt883 in that case, even more curious the BBC wouldn’t show that. They love that kind of thing.
    3
  35.  @DragonNectar  yes, it’s his fault. And Whelan defrauded the US government, so it’s unlikely the US wants him back anyway.
    3
  36. Remember, it was Poroshenko that was delighted at the thought of Donbas kids living in cellars. This is a Reverse Uno on the Kiev regime.

  37. Next up: Trump supporters getting themselves bit by Brazilian pit vipers.
    3
  38. Except all the weapons used in this war, Russian versions are equivalent or better. So NATO can’t even lean on quality.

  39. @@manofwar6013 because they have a hand in everything.

  40.  @geofflepper3207  which is exactly why Putin has not stopped people from leaving the country and is not conscripting people. He is still using a volunteer force, of which there are many motivated recruits. Unlike in Ukraine.
    3
  41.  @geofflepper3207  more like the US orchestrating a coup in Ukraine to overthrow a democratically-elected government back in 2014. And then the Kiev regime constantly shelling civilians in the Donbas.
    3
  42.  @kiprasmalakauskas7793 it’s not a stalemate. Ukraine, up until now, has only been fighting a Russian expeditionary force made of Donbass militia and mercenaries. The Russian army just barely mobilized and hasn’t entered the war yet. Ukrainians thought they’ve been fighting a war for a year, but the Russians are only beginning.

  43. He’s the king of corruption. But who watches the watchmen?

  44. Targets of Ukraine also include: farmers in Poland and marketplaces in Kostiantynivka

  45. So who sent the drone? You are a big news organization. What do YOU say?

  46. What happened to the Beggar King?

  47.  @1Ministras  just because they haven’t used them, doesn’t mean they don’t have them. If you used to spend a lot of money, but now save it in the bank, does that mean you ran out of money?

  48.  @pgr3290  how are Ukraine’s defense growing stronger, exactly?

  49. If Russia did it, then the West would be full throatededly blaming Russia. They would not be so “I dunno” about this. And why would Russia kill POWs in such a spectacular way? Besides, POWs are valuable for intel and prisoner swaps, so it makes no sense for Russia to do this. But say, Ukraine wanted to discourage any more surrenders or snitching…

  50. “Suspected?” After 2 weeks, you still don’t know who attacked the Iranian consulate building? British intelligence must be in a sorry state, indeed.
