No, they actually just suddenly decide to invade because it is quite literally foolish to say the least. Ukraine already suffered much worse exchange rate in eastern front when they are dug in with solid defense. Now they are going out in the open. Even pro-Ukraine commentators are getting mad and reporting twice as much vehicle loss on Ukraine side since the beginning of this invasion. Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad. The more reckless Ukraine gets, the sooner they will lose.

There are always games inside games with war. Ukraine could blow up the pipeline, but it would make more enemies. It's also money that Ukraine needs. There was a real reason for Orbán to meet with Zelensky last month. He was doing a lot for his puppet master, Pooptin, but he was also securing his own resources and offering Ukraine a good reason to keep the gas flowing.

The comparison to Okinawa is not a very accurate one. as Okinawa is only 463 sq mi with it's longest end to end being only 66 mile. while the Ukraine frontline stretches out over more than 600 mile's. so yes it is true the Ukraine conflict sees more casualties on a daily base. but the ferocity and density of the battle of Okinawa was much more due to it being much more concentrated on a small area.

@@StrikerEureka13 Compare it to the amount Russia occupies, whereas Ukraine is now losing the land they occupied in the most empty area of the Kursk Oblast As a matter of fact, because Ukraine did this incursion into Russia by diverting some of their troops, Russia was able to spearhead into Ukraine even more, capturing more land than Ukraine ever did

This „gas station“ the author is refferring to is a measuring station. There are no „taps“ to open or to close. It only serves for counting the amount of gas which is passing. Therefore they don’t have control over the flow of gas towards Europe. The only thing they could do is to blow it up and stop the flow completely for the foreseeable future. But this is not the intent of the Ukrainian forces since this gas is for the Europeans which won’t be very happy about it.

It is not that it is not their intent it's a situation where their bosses from western europe tell them what they can and can't do.

1. Russia likely knew, because if Russia is invaded, more Russians are likely to join the war in defense of the country. It helps recruitment. 2.

When Putin saw his troops getting massacred in Kursk, he got so desperate he decided to summon the ghost of Stalin for advice. Putin said, "Help me Stalin! The Nazis have returned and are massacring Russians in Kursk! What do I do?!" Stalin replied, "Just do the same thing I did: send Ukrainian troops to the front lines and beg America for weapons."

[@dauphongii]

I feel like the explanation is much easier. It's like when Soviet Union wanted to get Cuba under their rule which would eventually lead to Soviet army stationing there, Soviet military bases (with possibly nuclear weapons being taken there) built, and at that time America just threatened that there will be consequences (and apparently tried to assassinate the Cuban president). Now just switch the sides. Soviet Union is now NATO and America is now Russian Federation, while Cuba is Ukraine. It's essentially the same thing, but when it happened in the past, Soviet Union was like "Gotcha we won't do that". As for why Ukraine is important to be neutral or NATO-less for Russia, it is because it serves the same purpose as DMZ between ROK and DPRK. If one or other side tries to take control of the 'DMZ' then the other country is at risk.

[@enigmusII]

Russia hasn't been at risk of invasion since WWII, the attack on Kursk has been a desperate counterattack. The idea that Russia needs some neutral buffers at its borders is an absurdity, Finland and Sweden were not members of Nato before t he invasion, Ukraine was rejected as a potential member for NATO. Russia wants neutral countries along its borders, so it can do performance invasions if it suits their current dic(k/tator) of choice, see Moldova and Georgia for other examples.

[@Max_Jacoby]

@@enigmusII you're lying. You're a victim of western propaganda or worse you're a part of western propaganda yourself. Ukraine wasn't rejected as a potential member for NATO. In fact it's the opposite: 1992 - Ukraine joined the North Atlantic Cooperation Council; 1997 - NATO-Ukraine Commission was established; 2004 - Ukraine adopted a law on the free access of NATO forces to the territory of Ukraine; 2006 - the representative of the NATO Secretary General, James Appathurai, stated that all members of the alliance support the speedy integration of Ukraine into NATO; 2008 - Ukraine sent an official letter to apply for the Membership Action Plan; 2010 - NATO started to train Ukrainian army annually; 2015 - NATO gave Ukraine money and weapons to modernize their army; 2018 - NATO added Ukraine in the list of NATO aspiring members; 2020 - Ukraine joined NATO's enhanced opportunity partner interoperability program. It means they can use NATO' assets if they want to act independently in an international crisis;

[@catdogmousecheese]

To be fair, Russia only started building military bases in Cuba as a direct response to the USA building military bases Turkey. Also, Russia invading Ukraine wasn't just to stop them from joining NATO, but it was also so Russia could gain greater control of the Black Sea and control over the oil fields that geologists only recently discovered before the invasion within Ukraine's exclusive economic zone.
