I don’t think so. If Ukraine surrendered all there territory tomorrow, he’d be fine. But maybe it would be better for him if that happened after the election.
In a just world, you don't get to foment and engage in illegal coups and kick out the victims of your aggression and take their homes and land.
The Biden regime wanted this war. It never had anything to do with Ukraine. It was also meant to be proxy war against Russia.
You are completely clueless about the plans of the political class.
Sure the Ukrainians, who were invaded are the "aggressors". Liberal double speak
Biden is going to lose and Putin is crapping himself. Notice how the Kremlin put out their demands right before this week’s debate?
Not really, Code Pink, The Democratic Socialists of America, The libertarian Party, the Green Party, they are still against Ukraine resisting, and since we aren’t in a war ourselves, there can’t be any great passion about it.
“ Putin is saying…”
Begging.
Putin can be bought off. He’ll take personal payment over land.
These areas had been in armed conflict since 2014 with Ukraine, and there were many casualties on both sides.
Another added benefit if Trump wins. No more excessive zeep-yapping.
Neither Trump nor Zelensky are likely in favor of Trump winning, but you’re right. He’ll put a stop to this hemorrhaging of human lives and the associated fraud, waste and abuse on both sides.
“Oceania is at war with Eurasia. Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia.”
This make no sense. Only the Russians and some crazy Muslims are at war with everyone else in the modern world.
Right, its "these areas" that were in conflict with Ukraine. No Russians entered Ukraine in 2014. Okay
In April 2014, armed conflict began in eastern Ukraine between Russian-backed separatists and Ukraine. On 12 April, a fifty-man unit of pro-Russian militants seized the towns of Sloviansk and Kramatorsk. The heavily armed men were Russian Armed Forces "volunteers" under the command of former GRU colonel Igor Girkin ('Strelkov'). They had been sent from Russian-occupied Crimea and wore no insignia. Girkin said that this action sparked the Donbas War. He said "I'm the one who pulled the trigger of war. If our unit hadn't crossed the border, everything would have fizzled out"
As conflict between the separatists and the Ukrainian government escalated in May, Russia began to employ a "hybrid approach", combining disinformation tactics, irregular fighters, regular Russian troops, and conventional military support.[99][100][101] The First Battle of Donetsk Airport followed the Ukrainian presidential elections. It marked a turning point in conflict; it was the first battle between the separatists and the Ukrainian government that involved large numbers of Russian "volunteers".[102][103]: 15 According to Ukraine, at the height of the conflict in the summer of 2014, Russian paramilitaries made up between 15% and 80% of the combatants.[87] From June Russia trickled in arms, armor, and munitions.
In response to the deteriorating situation, Russia abandoned its hybrid approach, and began a conventional invasion on 25 August 2014.[114][116] On the following day, the Russian Defence Ministry said these soldiers had crossed the border "by accident".[117][118][119] According to Nikolai Mitrokhin's estimates, by mid-August 2014 during the Battle of Ilovaisk, between 20,000 and 25,000 troops were fighting in the Donbas on the separatist side, and only 40–45% were "locals"
Yup, and China will approve.
Ewww. Take your anti-Trump, pro-Biden, war-loving death cult nastiness out of here.
You disgust me. Seriously.
LOL, put down the bottle, you've had enough.
Neither Putin nor Zelensky are likely in favor of Trump winning, but Trump will put a stop to this hemorrhaging of human lives and the associated fraud, waste and abuse on both sides.
You’re insane. You’re screeching about China because I posted that Trump will end this wasteful war. The thought of the war and all of its bloodshed and destruction not to mention the overwhelming graft gets you all upset, doesn’t it? As I said, you disgust me.
Don’t post to me again, you vile leftist troll.
Resulting in Russia gaining territory in a war of aggression, which is an example to China. Its why Taiwan is one of the most vocal supporters of Ukraine.
Bi-khim Hsiao, Taiwan’s de facto ambassador to the United States, said Tuesday that Ukraine’s success in defending itself against Russia’s invasion, with the help of the United States and other nations, is important for deterring China from trying to invade Taiwan, a democratic island that the Chinese government considers part of its territory.
“I think pushing back on aggression is the key message that will help to deter any consideration or miscalculation that an invasion can be conducted unpunished, without costs, in a rapid way,” Ms. Hsiao told reporters over a breakfast organized by The Christian Science Monitor. “We must ensure that anyone contemplating the possibility of an invasion understands that, and that is why Ukraine’s success in defending against aggression is so important also for Taiwan.”
