I’ve read them less lately as I had been looking at them as a gauge if whether Russia has the finances for their war, but have realised they’re just printing money and now trying to hide it.
But I suppose that’s actually the point?

You mean the same people that believe the capture of a town they captured last week? And the week before that? And the week before (you get the idea…)

If only their journalists would hold the leaders’ feet to the fire a little.

Autocracies or not, it’s simply mind-blowing that heads of state would issue condemnation of an act simply on the word that it happened from someone like Putin.
The US, UAE, India and Pakistan all have intelligence agencies that must be saying this is nonsense.

It’s all just silliness and show. In a hot war Tupolev bombers positioned that close to any NATO state would be falling to the ground in flaming pieces in a matter of seconds.
But it gives The Mirror and TASS something to write about.

It’s not news that all those who were going to join up did so in the first couple of years of the war. That leaves compelled recruitment.
Doubtless a lot of men don’t want to fight in this war. I’d be afraid.
But that’s not the same as saying they’re running out of soldiers.

Every square mile Putin takes is land for Russia to harvest for its men to feed back into the meat grinder in the push West.
Trump’s not seeing that because he only has an eye for a business opportunity and a ‘great deal’.

But his and his cabinet’s designs on expanding into every area the ancient Israelites ever called home (even if they never held it all at once) doesn’t threaten Europe in the same way that Russia does.

Ukraine already has US and Russian security guarantees under the Budapest Memorandum. Neither are interested in honouring the existing ones, so why give concessions to Russia in exchange for another set?

I read the article a few days ago, and that is not my reading of it.
He was saying Putin’s best chance to save Russia would have been Trump’s ‘great deal’. Not that Ukraine should to accept it. The article’s just pointing out Russian hubris.

One of my favourite parables is the one where Jesus compares the man loudly proclaiming his righteousness with the one in the same space who humbly asks God for mercy on him, a sinner.
But that’s the sort of Christianity MAGA loathes unfortunately.

I really worry that leaders in Europe will still bury their heads in the sand, hoping Trump will come back on side again (though he never really was).
The 28 point plan is a blueprint for Russia to restart the war at a time of their choosing, from further into Ukraine, against a hamstrung Ukraine.
