The article is rather weak in its assertions.

I suspect both sides are jockying for position on the possibility of a new Trump Presidency.

I am fairly certain the war would never have happened if we were in a second Trump term instead of a Biden leftist clown/keptocracy.

Everyone wants peace. It’s the terms of that peace that are the issue.

Putin is not terrified of Trump. What he wants is no American nukes in the Ukraine. Same as the USA doesn’t want Russian nukes in Cuba

Peace on Russia’s terms: they keep all territory currently held or they keep all the claimed Oblasts - negotiation point. UKR can not join NATO or the EU. UKR will disarm and be neutral. UKR qill allow Russian observers access to all documents/facilities described above; all non-negotiable.

Heads Russia wins; Tails Russia wins.

Return to your borders, declare the Crimea as a state independent from Russia and the Ukraine... And Bob’s your uncle... Don’t, and prepare yourself to be ousted from power.

The Daily Mail is one of the most obnoxious cheerleaders and propagandists for the Ukraine regime. The primary goal seems to have been the seizure of the Russian nuclear power plant near Kursk to use as bargaining chip leverage in cease fire negotiations.

The reason the territory was not well defended in the first place was because it has very little military value apart from being a corridor to reach the nuclear power plant.

This objective has failed completely.

The Ukrainian military has rotated out most of the hardened fighters who led the offensive and replaced them with poorly trained, inexperienced troops sent into Russia to act as cannon fodder.

After they arrived, the Ukraine's "motivational battalions" burned the bridges behind them so the troops have no option but to hold the line to the bitter end so the Ukraine does not have to withdraw and admit it's offensive has failed.

The diversion of resources created by this ill advised offensive has resulted in the collapse of resistance of the Ukrainian forces in key areas and rapid Russian advances into Ukraine.

From the same folks who told us Putin was dying of 37 different fatal diseases.

Yes, Putin is so “rattled” he pulled troops out of Ukraine to counter the Ukrainian incursion into the desolate swampland of Kursk. Oh wait. He didn’t. Just calmly kept on keeping on.

And it appears that in Kursk the Ukrainian mice have captured the Russian mousetrap. Zelensky reacts with a big “reshuffling” of his cabinet, including the FM. Who is “rattled” again?

Everything I’ve seen is that the Kursk offensive has come to a halt. Russian troops are working their way slowly through the forests and killing Ukrainians as they are found. Ukraine is trying to get some forces out of Kursk, but that makes them moving targets. The Ukrainians are finally trying to reinforce Pokrotsk, but it may be too late.

If I had to place a bet, it would be on Trump giving Putin an offer that involves a horses head. All Putin will get is a fig leaf-(Buy Crimea, thats it). I think thats why Putin wants Harris to win.

But I am not going to place a bet as it is just wild speculation...who knows

Keep on dreaming, like you and the Daily Mail always have. Here, once again, Zelensky is reinforcing failure.

lol What one sided silliness :)

The west scares me when its propoganda is as bad as an authoritarian state.

Are we sending another gazillion dollars to Ukraine?

Because they took 1000 sq miles out of 1.6 million and are losing miles every day in their own country?

Typical Daily Mail propaganda piece in which the content doesn’t match the headlines.
