Yup.
Besides this was the circus....

Significant question seldom addressed:
When there is peace, regardless of what new government is in place in Ukraine, who is going to fund them?
If they are cut off and Zelensky forced to disappear given his term of office expired, what funds the next government? The coal is the only sellable mineral and it is in the new Russian oblasts.
Agriculture? I had thought China bought all that land.
So what funds operations? Another fundamental truth — the refugees are not returning when there will be no money there.
