Actually the report is that several people involved in the talks on both sides are showing signs they were poisoned.....
If true, bet it's going to be blamed on Russia before the day is over...probably by US "sources".Actually the report is that several people involved in the talks on both sides are showing signs they were poisoned.....
Rah rah rahIf true, bet it's going to be blamed on Russia before the day is over...probably by US "sources".
Unconfirmed reports that Irpin has been fully recaptured by Ukraine.
You are really sick man.If true, bet it's going to be blamed on Russia before the day is over...probably by US "sources".
Hope this is for real this time
Evidence destroyed so time to call off the dogs............oh dang oops my bad, wrong threadEquities and commodities seem to think it is. The press output seems more realistic, but who knows. Maybe we can avoide those chemical/bio/nuclear weapon attacks after all.
In other words, a heck of alot of dead people for a deal that could have been had before the war, and a deal that was far better for Ukraine. You could say a whole lot of dead people for nothing. Biden, Putin, Zelensky are dirty here.Looks like Russia appears to be shifting strategy to occupying and consolidating the eastern regions instead of attempting to take over the entire country. Also, looks like Kyiv may avoid the dire scenarios we were afraid of when this started.
So what happens next? My guess (and it's only a guess) is Russia will hunker down on these eastern ‘disputed’ regions (which were supposed to be the whole point of this in the beginning) by occupying them, then refusing to give them up in any negotiations. They have to have SOMETHING to show for going through with this operation, don't they?? Meanwhile Ukraine eventually agrees to cease fire but refuses to give up further occupied regions. A peace treaty may come down the turnpike, but may not even be required—could just be a long cease fire in place similar to north and south korea beginning in 1950s.
Could we have a West and East Ukraine that develops like we did Germany for several decades? Hope not, but I wouldn't rule it out as a possibility.
