He was talking sense, until he got to "eliminate Ukraine culture, take the remainder of Ukraine, eliminate Ukraine from the map"... None of these have ever been part of the plan.

[@matoberry]

If you listen to what Putin and his advisors say and write repeatedly, it was the plan all along. They may be willing to accept the Western region around Lviv to be "non-Russian", meaning that it's actually Polish or something like that. Ukraine is not a real country to them and the nation does not exist.

[@Neion8]

So Putin personally publishing an essay on why Ukraine shouldn't exist titled 'On the historical unity of Russians and Ukrainians' arguing that they are one people and the borders shouldn't exist doesn't suggest that maybe he wants to get rid of the things in the way of him doing that, such as eliminating the differences between them (Ukrainian culture) and removing their ability to ever fight Russia again via annexation? Are you really gonna say the guy quite openly threatening to nuke the British Isles out of existence (despite knowing full well what that means for everyone), has already turned several Ukrainian town and cities into ghost-towns neighbouring mass graves and abducted hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians cares deeply about human life or people's ability to choose? This isn't about restraint, liberation or anything else - it's a powerplay; many of the countries Ukraine feeds (bear in mind, it's a country of 43 million that produces the food for 600 million) are also targets of China's belt and road initiative. By making not only their economies, but their very ability to live dependent on the Russia/China partnership, they make vassals of those countries - which include Egypt, owner of the Suez canal aka the fastest way for European ships to get to the South China sea and aid Taiwan or any other targets of China in the event of a conflict over there. Should Egypt be coerced to block off or even temporarily sabotage the Suez canal, that could delay reinforcments from European countries (as well as European-stationed American assets) by a week or two at least, meaning it's basically whatever America has in the area plus Japan, South Korea and Taiwan vs China (since India is unlikely to throw itself into war on the American/UK side without a damn good reason), which is much more favourable odds. Taking Ukraine would also give that co-operative 46% of the world's supply of graphite (China has 26% of the world's supply, Ukraine 20%) - an important resource for batteries/solar panels etc which will be a massive market in the coming age - as well as making it harder for Europe to wean itself off Russian oil/gas, since it'll need Russian graphite to do so. This isn't a 'special operation'; this is the opening play of the new cold war/potential WW3 aimed at cornering certain markets and forcing the world to be more dependent on Russia/China than vice-versa.

After Russian forces defeated the NATO trained NAZI AZOV units stationed in Mariupol, Russia turned to the war torn Donbass region of Eastern Ukraine. Over fifteen thousand have been killed in over eight years of war, with little concern from the West. A 40 thousand plus Ukraine Army is down to under ten thousand in this Ethnic Russian Donbass area. The hope is to protect the Russian speaking people of Eastern Ukraine - from Kharkiv in the Northeast to Odessa in the South. They have suffered greatly from Western Ukraine soldiers who's home is in Livi area. With NATO and NAZI's on their doorsteps plus a civil war, the Russian felt their security was in danger and also the people of Donbas. Even before Putin, the US has wanted a proxy war with Russia. They have pleaded with America no more NATO countries on our border. Today 30 NATO nation surround Russia. In 2008 Russia was spooked, as Prof. Mearsheimer puts it, when the US invited Ukraine into NATO. Even after losing over 26 million to NAZI Germany in WWII - Russia gets little respect from the West. After this conflict, Russia will have to look to Asia, Africa and Latin America for friends and business. The world has changed to a multipolar planet -no more unipolar.

In Ukraine, Russian fascists provoked an energy crisis: destroyed solar panels and windmills The Sivashenergoprom enterprise suffered badly, which built the largest wind farm in the region on the banks of the Sivash. It consisted of 68 giant windmills with a total capacity of 250-300 megawatts. Note that this project was very expensive, over $ 2 billion The Windcraft Chaplinka wind farm, which is part of the 140-megawatt Windcraft-Ukraine wind farm, was also destroyed. Dozens of solar power plants in the Kherson region were also destroyed. The occupiers beat the panels during the shelling or stole them. It is currently impossible to calculate the scale of the damage. This will be done after the war.

Since 2019 to now - Councillor of the Russian Mission to the UN Office at Geneva. For twenty years of my diplomatic career I have seen different turns of our foreign policy, but never have I been so ashamed of my country as on February 24 of this year.The aggressive war unleashed by Putin against Ukraine, and in fact against the entire Western world, is not only a crime against the Ukrainian people, but also, perhaps, the most serious crime against the people of Russia with a bold letter Z crossing out all hopes and prospects for a prosperous free society in our country. Those who conceived this war want only one thing - to remain in power forever, live in pompous tasteless palaces, sail on yachts comparable in tonnage and cost to the entire Russian Navy, enjoying unlimited power and complete impunity. To achieve that they are willing to sacrifice as many lives as it takes. Thousands of Russians and Ukrainians have already died just for this. I regret to admit that over all these twenty years the level of lies and unprofessionalism in the work of the Foreign Ministry has been increasing all the time. However, in most recent years, this has become simply catastrophic. Instead of unbiased information, impartial analysis and sober forecasting, there are propaganda clichés in the spirit of Soviet newspapers of the 1930s. A system has been built that deceives itself. Minister Lavrov is a good illustration of the degradation of this system. In 18 years, he went from a professional and educated intellectual, whom many my colleagues held in such high esteem to a person who constantly broadcasts conflicting statements and threatens the world (that is, Russia too) with nuclear weapons! Today, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not about diplomacy. It is all about warmongering, lies and hatred. It serves interests of few, the very few people thus contributing to further isolation and degradation of my country. Russia no longer has allies, and there is no one to blame but its reckless and ill-conceived policy. I studied to be a diplomat and have been a diplomat for twenty years. The Ministry has become my home and family. But I simply cannot any longer share in this bloody, witless and absolutely needless ignominy"

Right now it is believed that the Russian military will have completed the encirclement in around 2 weeks. They had been working on creating that perticular cauldron from around a month now. I fail to understand why the Ukrainian high command didn't order those troops to retreat westward to a more defendable position. As things stand, those 20,000 Ukrainian troops will now be lost. Many of them killed, and the rest will surrender. Those 20,000 trained and battle hardened troops are not readily replaceable. And once that happens, that would be a huge strategic blow to Ukraine.

This coverage was made by the BBC 8 years ago kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoKqd42bq8Sbbck There are many documentaries of independent journalists since 8 years ago that can be studied. From there we will be able to know how American and NATO politicians must be held accountable for the overlap of UKRAINIAN NEO NAZIS in the crimes of ethnic cleansing or genocide against the people of eastern Ukraine.

Where are all the promised heaving weapons staying?? They have been needed for some time now. The howitzers alone are absolutely not enough. Air defence to protect civilians and supply lines is so critiquel for the survival of the Ukraines. Zelensky just told that the Russian invaders have 20!! times more equipment in Ukraine right now than they have! I am from Belgium and we have to wake up out of this coma of everything will be ok! Action is needed in Europe ASAP! Thank you USA & GB for clearly seeing the thread for democracy this whole situation is.

Yes, but NATO would have to get directly involved. Turkey is the sword when it comes to anything that happens in the Black sea.

It's on the way. The HIMARS along with Patriot anti air defenses and the Palladin. Ukraine is transitioning to western NATO weapons during the war. Eventually they'll have F15's and F16's, Eurofighters, Leopards, Challengers, Abram's, advanced air to air and air to ground weapons, advanced battlefield radar etc. And the American F15 is 104-0 against the Russian Mig29. The American F15 has burned 104 Russian Mig29's without a single victory for the Russian Mig29. That always fires up the Russian booty boys on here. If they weren't butthurt before they will be when they read this. US, Ukraine, Britain=💪, Russia=😭😫😪😫😩

So nice to have the retired Colonel go on CNN and say everything that the Russians should do to cut off Ukraine you think that would be a no-brainer not to do that

You have to be one ignorant clown to imply that the Kremlin watches CNN (or any Western media outlet) to get their clues for warfare. 🙄

The Russian generals had this in mind months ago and there is much more to come. The Russian strategy is starting to reveal and many will be surprised very soon.

You're kidding right. The Russians know this thus they pulled out of northern Ukraine and concentrated their forces in Eastern and Southern Ukraine when they realized that this is going to be a war of attrition.
