Russian President Vladimir Putin has canceled plans for his forces to storm the Azovstal plant in the besieged city of Mariupol, saying he instead wants them to continue blockading it.

Putin told his defense minister, Sergei Shoigu, it was "inadvisable" to storm the sprawling industrial plant, where more than 2,000 Ukrainian servicemen are said to remain.

The Biden Republicans should take Putin’s Dunkirk-like show of mercy directly to the peace table.

Another video link. Putin holding on to the desk with right hand. Right leg twitching. Left side almost paralyzed. Bloated. Slouched.

Shoigu looks healthier than Putin. That says something.

The vegetable Biden decides nothing. The US deep state/MIC is using Ukraine as a strategic tool, and they will sacrifice all of Ukraine for their ends, so 2000 soldiers is no big deal.

” Dead man sitting. ”

Whew! I am so relieved to hear that he’s no longer capable of saying “launch”.

They don’t pay attention because of their blinders. For one thing it is Newsweek AND it says they are not going to “storm” the plant. Doesn’t mean they won’t flood or bomb it.

Well, he might, right? So the question is, for whatever time he has left, what are the factors that would compel the shrinking mafia thug to launch?

What worries me is who replaces Putin, since everyone else in that government seems much more inclined to play hardball with Ukraine.

Is Putin shrinking?
Maybe he’s just slouching in his chair.
