There is no route to Odessa that doesn’t involve crossing wide, deep water. As long as there is a viable Ukrainian force on the other side, Russia won’t even try.

So, you don't expect a Russian ground assault on Odessa?

YOu don't sound like the many other cheerleaders for Russia after the missile attacks on Odessa.

At least you dont sound as radical as some other Putinias.

No.

I DO expect Russia to take out all Ukrainian port facilities on the Black Sea. But not an attempted occupation of Odessa.

Not as long as there’s a viable Ukrainian army.
