Winds blow east in that part of the world.
They were counting on US support so they played nice. If Europe fails to do anything meaningful we might see UKR do something incalculable.
UKR knows that the only way to stop Putin is to match his posture. They have openly stated last year that they should get a nuke since US is unreliable.
Retaliate for nuking their own territory?
Trump, like every arogant POS has overestimated his strength. Europe can and will enter the conflict as Russia has proven itself to be an existential threat. NATO is dead, but EU has been planning for this. I wouldn't be surprised if UKR already has or will obtain a nuke and put on a show of force . Nuking Russian troops on its own territory would be fine- and provide ground denial to the Russians.
That was the plan all along. It was a set up.
5meoDMT. Do it first then decide.
This what's gonna happen, EU, Canada, Mexico, China and the rest of the sane world will trade amongst themselves ,and US can eat it's "exceptionalism" for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
If you could only reason with unreasonable people .
If all it took was a UN letter to the manager, we wouldn't be in this position. Laws without enforcement are called wishes.
Too relatable.
Ah yes the " zombie day" followed by "emotional disturbance day."
Did you see " The Centaury of Self" by Adam Curtis....
Damn that thing is cool
Haahahaha
Cut off a limb to save the body. Radiation contamination is a pretty effective ground denial strategy- make those eastern oblasts uninhabitable for a 100years. That would afford some time for Russia to turn itself inside out.
I'm not suggesting it's any planners first choice, but it would certainly protect the border from further ground invasions.
