So, pootski not thinking cease fire today then?
Musk put on a suit for a White House appearance and Putin has started wearing full combat clothing, not simple olive drab themed clothes, but actual full camouflage gear.
What is going on?
Putin showing up at Kursk means that the Russians are about to end the occupation of Russian territory.
“So, pootski not thinking cease fire today then?”
As I just wrote on another thread, this is always the way it works. The side that is losing wants a ceasefire first, the side that is winning wants to keep the pressure on.

Weird huh?
I read last night that Ukraine has withdrawn from Kursk and lost 70% of its soldiers doing so. I have no idea if that number is real (some surrendered, which also counts as “lost”). There were multiple reports that the way out was under Russian fire.
Putin showed up to celebrate the removal.
“Weird huh?”
Shocka!
What idiots thought this whole op was a good idea in the first place?
Why "Z" did this to start with befuddles me.
Putin would only show up to bask in the glory of victory. It is a truism of politics that in defeat the leadership is nowhere near the disaster but when there is a win they show up like flies on 5h1t.
“Putin showed up to celebrate the removal.”
Must have hurt to be first Russian dictator to have lost homeland territory since WWII.
If Russia retakes Kursk, what’s the big “victory?”
Ukraine retreated because their supply lines were getting hammered by fiber optic controlled Russian drones. They will remain in Kursk, just not as deep in a salient. They will remain across the border because it shortens the line of contact and is more defensible. Ukraine will not withdrawal completely, at least not at this time.
All of the EUSSR's plans for lebensraum by taking land from the untermenschen Slavs has come to naught. The globohomos' plan for the remainder of the Ukraine is to flood it with turd worlders to finish off ff the Ukrainians as a people. If Russia is smart any peace agreement must guarantee that the Ukrainian people be protected against 3rd world colonization.
Lebensraum (German pronunciation: [ˈleːbənsˌʁaʊm], living space) is a German concept of expansionism and Völkisch nationalism, the philosophy and policies of which were common to German politics from the 1890s to the 1940s. First popularized around 1901, Lebensraum became a geopolitical goal of Imperial Germany in World War I (1914–1918), as the core element of the Septemberprogramm of territorial expansion. The most extreme form of this ideology was supported by the Nazi Party and Nazi Germany, the ultimate goal of which was to establish a Greater German Reich. Lebensraum was a leading motivation of Nazi Germany to initiate World War II, and it would continue this policy until the end of the conflict.
