Russia-Ukraine War (continuing)

Seems like half of the 7 mile long cauldron has closed west of Kurakhove. Looks like another chaotic retreat underway as the Russians have now entered and taken positions in Konstantyinopil.

US is not going to throw Ukraine under the bus, people are falling for the Russian propaganda .

How is it even possible to do a deal with Russia to end the war, without Ukraine agreeing

After officials and institutions in Ukraine – including the national parliament – marked the birth anniversary of nationalist leader Stepan Bandera, Polish government figures have criticised the commemoration of a man they see as responsible for the genocide of ethnic Poles and Jews.

I never thought I'd see Irish people defending Banderas.

People need to get this nazi thing sorted out once and for all. Ukrainian nazis were not the same as the German ones. They simply joined with the Germans because that was a good way of fighting against the Russians. And yes, nasty things happened but it is disingenuous to dig into history to justify Putin's crimes. Russia has an appalling history that could be easily used against it. And should be because they are still the same violent regime.

''The US sent a document to European governments asking what the countries could contribute towards Ukraine's security arrangements, it has emerged.

The questionnaire sent asked European nations what they would need from Washington to participate in security arrangements.

The document consisted of six points and questions, asking which countries could contribute to Ukraine's security, and which would be willing to send troops as part of a peace deal''

Macron wants an invitation to a party he's not invited to

Ukraine could automatically become a member of NATO if Russia violates ceasefire according to plan of senators,

After all this time someone has to step up when no one else would

What's Ukraine being doing?

Are you actually taking the piss?

Truth is if Trump tries to go sucking up to Putin he's likely to be ignored, ridiculed and at worst risk retalitory measures by Europe against American Buisness interests belonging to Musk and friends for a start. Attempting to remove sanctions will definately draw a major retaliation on him as well. If anything him trying to negotiate for Ukraine without their consent is going to make him look impotent when everyone turns around and disregards his supposed deal with no regard for todays reality.

The only way this war ends is with the back of the Vatnik State broken and Russia left in a position it cannot sustain any further combat. This is also an important factor as if they were to win in Ukraine, Putin cant make that conscript army dissapear as hes wrecked his economy he has to direct them somewhere else and the Baltics would be next. They dont value human life, they hold no regards for the rules of war and deliberately attack civilian targets and their word is worthless. They broke every agreement they signed in the past. The only way this war doesnt start up again IMO is Ukraine is in NATO or its armed with Nukes as the only way to kowtow the Vatnik state.

Bandera was assassinated in 1959 and grew up in Poland. Lots of Irish people do not know who he was or the role he played in history but anything he did do or the views people in Ukraine have of him are no justification for present day terrorists being sent to Ukraine by putin. You seem to be grasping at straws to justify your dear leader **** container being of sound mind in trying to reestablish the USSR with him as the Tzar.

Edit: I did not type **** container in place of poo tin but tried to actually spell out the accurate description of the leader of the terrorist state attacking Europe and causing the deaths of thousands and the lives of a much larger number of people to be destroyed.

the mind boggles - . sending a questionnaire out at that level. I thought that such issues would be handled/ discussed at the highest level and involving the most senior officials and in a very secret /safe and secure environment and over a number of meetings.nGod help us!!!!!!

Why would Trump want 250,000 troops in UKr if Putin guarantees that he will not OVERSTEP the agreed boundary between UKR and Ru?!!

Ukraine didn't expect an invasion but got one.

There's proof that Putin can't be trusted.

Trump is so unreliable.

Ukraine still has the ultimate say if the EU continues support, as it looks like it will. Without the US as an ally they will be free to attack parts of the Russian economy that were off limits before. i.e. port oil pumping facilities to Russians shadow fleet. Perhaps flatten the Kerch bridge as a sign of intent?
