George S. Patton
Not surprising. Ukraine waited too long to make a deal, now their defense problems are too obvious.
Since Russia doesn’t want NATO to defend Ukraine, Ukraine should not have a limit placed by treaty on the size of its army.
Russia is winning - we don’t get to dictate terms.
Trump is an infinitely better leader and negotiator, but he’s not King of the World and his options are mostly the same as Biden’s; keep throwing resouces into the black hole or cut losses and move on.
Threatening sanctions hasn’t and will not work - we already blew our load in that regard, and sanctions, threats and arming Ukraine is no way to make a deal with the side that’s already withstood all of it.
Ukraine is the SUCK, and America has been choosing our foreign entanglements very poorly.
With most US military aid stopped, Russians have the advantage on the battlefield, so why would they stop invading Ukraine?
Neither side wants peace.
It’s time for the USA to get out of this quagmire and let the Slavs kill each other. Eventually there will be so few Russians and Ukrainians alive that China will easily take back the part of Manchuria that was annexed by Stalin.
The Eurotrash will love this scenario.
So, what does Russia need to have happen in order to be agreeable to stopping their mass murders and other violence?
Do the Ukrainian people need to prove to them that they seriously love their Russian brothers?
What do the English and Americans need to do to prove that we’re not going to try to talk Ukrainians and others into hating the Russians?
Oh poor Putin in how Americans (possibly in his mind) spend 24/7 scheming up ways to try to get the people in central Europe to hate Russia. Americans don’t have time to try to get anyone to hate Trump, Biden, Harris, Musk, Schumber, Newson, Johnson, other Republicans, or other Democrats. Every waking moment of ours is spent trying to figure out how to get people in central Europe to hate Russia? Their hatred has nothing to do with all the mass murders & other violence that Russia does against them? Geeez!! Putin is delusional, in addition to being a mass murderer.
One thing for sure is that if they don’t end this “Special Military Operation” (which is illegal to call “War” in Russia) soon that it’s duration will be longer than their “Great Patriotic War” of 1941-1945 when over 27 million people in the USSR died.
What may most save Putin’s regime is the fact that any military power on Earth that is foolish enough to invade Russia will probably lose just as Hitler, Napolean, and others in history have done & lost in the long run. He’s a fool if he thinks he’s going to . He’s a lot like Macron in France or Lulu in Brazil (or the Big Guy whose son was a highly paid oil executive and artist) in pushing to incarcerate his political opponents on solely political grounds.
No matter what happens on this “Special Military Operation”, Putin is never going to be welcomed into the G7 circles again. He’s a pariah forever going forward.
Patton also thought he was reincarnated and fought in the Punic Wars and with Napoleon. He was great at armored warfare, but at other things, he was an aristocratic bigot with limited range.
But as a leader of a cavalry or armored attack, he was a great.
You're totally retarded if you don't grasp that.
It's the EU/NATO/WEF that is everything the Soviet Union was as proven by the assault on free and fair elections in Romania, France and Turkey.
Trump needs to stop all aid to Ukraine until that happens.
It’s called negotiation. And Russia has a good hand of cards to play with.
Of course KGB Putin wouldn’t accept!
no one with half a brain would expect him to considering his dream to to reassemble the old soviet union!
