If Davos 'elites' can bankrupt the world --- they'll be able to buy it back on the cheap.

They can always build more windmills and install more photocells.

First, there would be a ceasefire and demilitarization of the battle zones.

If this happens, the million-man Ukrainian army would be prevented from marching on Moscow...

“ In 3 months, they’ll be needing fuel.”

Well, then Europe will have to choose between their population having heat or whether american politicians get to keep their worlds largest money laundromat and prodigal son employment agency

The forecast for the UK, from Channel 4 News, yesterday:

“Energy bills are set to go up by more than £800 this autumn - as the regulator warned that the price cap is likely to hit £2,800 in October.

Ofgem’s boss described soaring gas prices as a “once in a generation event” - made even more acute by Russia’s war in Ukraine. Campaigners say - millions more people will be thrust into what is known as “fuel stress” - forced to choose between paying for food or heating their homes.”

The EU president Von der Leyen, in a WION video from yesterday, complained of Russia not feeding the EU and other regions of the world though the EU placed sanctions on Russia.

And yet Turkey has declared that Ukrainian mines have been washing up on their shores.

There are reports starting to appear of impending general collapse of Ukrainian forces at points along the eastern front.

If they break at any particular point, the Russians will pour through and it will be over for the eastern portion of the Ukraine.

One prime indicator has been reports of the removal of the Zelensky family from Ukraine.

Now why would they march?

Hell according to the “experts” on here, they can simply hop in their cars and drive right on through to Moscow.

The Rooskies can not stop them.

This war shows just how vulnerable these fuel sources would be. Another reason why it's stupid.

You want to have a windmill to run a little community with 200 people...2 stores, a bar and a church...fine. But to run a city of 20,000 people. How stupid are they??

Thirdly, a bilateral agreement between Russia and Ukraine regarding the status of contested territories.

This says absolutely nothing.

"Russia and Ukraine shall agree that there shall be an agreement on the territories."

Okay. But what will the terms of this agreement?

Russia has Crimea....no matter what the "others" say. And they now have Donbas.

Both those areas had special status since they became independent.

The world has operated on "to the victor goes the spoils" since the beginning of time.

Ukraine has nothing to gain by pursuing their offense...which is really defense.
