[@kongthai..]

@kuchenkoren4051 2025 is a roller coaster year. The Ukraine war shows Russian purchasing parity for firepower is 6x it's equivalent value in US & EU. Basically it is Russian firepower that US & EU doesn't want to match. Either Z accept buffer state status or EU using Slovak Leader forces them. Otherwise Russia capitulates Ukraine and Ukraine becomes a CLIENT STATE and Balkans is back into EU-CIS contention again. EU doesn't want that and EU doesn't want to spend €1.0 trillion and hundreds of thousand mercenaries to stall the Russians. We have to guess what will happen next 6 months. The combatants could switch to ALL DRONE & ROBOT war at a much lower cost. That's the alternative. That will cause RUSSIAN Southwestern command to go to high gear to wipe out the Ukraine military group command. 🥺

He does because it is correct. Turning some backwards corrupt country into a zombie that last for 3 years against one of top 3 military powers while also trading some blows back. The result doesn't really matter here. Actually it does if Ukraine magically wins, but even if it loses it is still a rookie that could put up a fight against a champion. The only "loss" here is that if Russia or China would notice that there's a western build up in their surrounding countries then they wouldn't wait anymore before acting.

[@Black_Sun_Dark_Star]

[@ARCofRESISTANCE]

Zelensky didn't try to prevent the conflict through diplomacy because he lacks honor and integrity. In 2014 there was a coup. Soon after, there was a massacre in Odessa (dozens of people were burned alive). Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed. A civil war broke out due to the rise in ethnic tensions. For 8 years the Ukrainian military was indiscriminately shelling civilians living in Donbas. If Zelensky honored the Minsk agreement and pledged neutrality, none of this would have happened. The 8 year civil war would have ended and Donbas would have remained part of Ukraine. War is the ultimate failure of diplomacy. Zelensky admitted that Ukraine had no intention to honor the Minsk agreements. Who didn't want peace? Who advised against the 2022 peace talks in April? Hint: someone visited Zelensky in Kiev at that time. Russia's national security was compromised once NATO began to expand eastwards. Russia clearly stated that Ukraine joining NATO was a red line (November 2021) and unfortunately this concern was never taken seriously. The Russians openly stated: if nothing changes, we will be forced to act in order to defend our national security. Enhancing the national security of one country at the expense of another is unacceptable. The Russians have legitimate security concerns. 20th September, 2021. Ukraine launched military drills with US and NATO. NATO is not a defensive alliance. NATO illegally bombed Yugoslavia (a direct violation of the U.N. Charter). We should never forget what they did to Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq etc. Who blew up the pipeline causing an environmental disaster? Zelensky banned all opposition and arrested a leading priest. Zelensky tried to invoke article 5 under false pretenses. Remember the incident in Poland. Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed. Poroshenko said, “Our children will go to schools and kindergartens-theirs will hide in the basements”. Russians will never forget the 2014 Odessa massacre. The whole world needs to know about it. Why was Denis Kireev eliminated? He was a member of Ukraine's negotiating team during the peace negotiations. He wanted to help his country. Ukraine has a hit list. They target artists, journalists and ordinary citizens. Hundreds of children are on this list. 13 year old Faina Savenkova was placed on this list. Pink Floyd's Roger Waters is on this list. Jimmy Dore (American stand-up comedian, podcaster) and Aaron Maté (Canadian writer and journalist) are on this list. There is evidence that Ukrainian troops have been indiscriminately shelling civilians in Donbas (they used petal mines and targeted areas where there was no military presence). The azov troops trapped in the azovstal steelworks in Mariupol used human shields. They refused to allow civilians to leave despite of humanitarian corridors being present. Russia held a proposed cease fire in order for the civilians to leave, but azov would not allow the civilians to leave. Ukraine has committed many acts of terrorism (car bombs and other forms of assassination). Darya Dugina (journalist) R.I.P. The first terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed the truck driver and the individuals in the adjacent car (innocent civilian victims). The second terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed two parents and severely injured their young daughter. I have done a lot of research and it took me a long time to write this comment. I have stated a lot of facts and I have given my honest opinion. I have provided a brief summary of events that took place. In order to explain this whole situation in great detail, a book would need to be written. Hopefully someone will write an UNBIASED book, stating facts and allowing the readers to form their own judgments. Everything I said can be fact checked and verified.

[@moanamason2454]

Here's some more facts for you. Russia invaded Ukraine. Russia massacred Ukrinian civilians in Bucha, Irpin, and Hostomel. Russia has committed untold war crimes. Russia holds the hands of North Korea, Iran, and up until his fall Asads Syria. Russia has committed many acts of terror and assassination is Putins signature. In all wars, both parties are responsible and, to a degree, are at fault. I don't support any war. I don't support Nato, America, and certainly not Putin's Russia.
