Does President Putin golf?
Seems too smart for that.
Yeah. Just thinking about what could be discussed over a round of 9 holes. Face to face allows for so much more context. Body language, facial expressions and tone allow for a more in depth reparteé.
If it could be settled like that, why not. Would be nice. LOL
The conflict in Ukraine only benefited China and Iran.
Both of these nations were able to capitalize on Russia’s position may it be arms, gas and oil deals, etc.

“🔸Putin reminded Trump of Russia’s proposal to seek mutually acceptable agreements on the Iranian nuclear issue.”
LOL!
The primary discovery from Israel and Iran is all those explosions around Tel Aviv. Not the ones in Iran. The ones in Israel.
There is no defense against ballistic missiles. Understand plasma stealth.
Iron Dome and Patriots fail and that will apply to Golden Dome, too.
You can kill 80% of incoming and if they have nukes, it’s a 100% fail. This is the lesson for Golden Dome, and thank God only $25B is to be squandered on that.
Read about plasma stealth.
I know what you meant. Even here, we’ve got loads of “Russia Russia Russia” warmongers.
Lmao. Well, it’s better than a T90 that identifies as a golf cart, I suppose.
🔸Russia is ready to continue negotiations with the Ukrainian side, Putin said.
—
As long as the negotiations include Ukraine’s total surrender and handing over Nazi to be exterminated.
Why not indeed. Make it a golf summit. Invite the twerking belligerent too. Keep the media out for security reasons. Then listen to them cry like little girls. Win, win.
Ok, I read about plasma stealth.
It is not some invulnerable shield of invisibility.
Plasma can, in theory, be tuned to absorb selected microwave frequencies, but the tuning is extremely complex and results in harmonic emissions which can be easily detected with passive sensors. There are no reported successful experiments of this type.
Plasmas normally radiate in various frequencies too. With or without "stealth" tuning measures, an object surrounded by plasma can be detected, because it lights up the sky.
A laser shot can kill a ballistic missile in the terminal entry phase - if the weather is suitable. Antimissile systems of this type have been deployed and used with limited success. They do not charge fast enough, and they tend to break down after a single shot. Those problems may be solvable.
You can kill 80% of incoming and if they have nukes, it’s a 100% fail.
That is a pretty good point. And it has a corollary. You can kill 100% of incoming ballistic missiles if you hit them with a pre-emptive strike before they launch, so they are never incoming.

I have seen similar contingency stuff for anti submarine (boomer) warfare. It goes like this:
If Russia attack subs acoustically hear preparations for launch, they can attack immediately and prevent the launch. Given the US keeps 80% of warheads on submarines, this is a higher focus for Russians than the reverse (Russia keeps only 60% of its warhead inventory on boomers).
The problem unfolds immediately. These are the sharpest of the sharp in the two navies. They get that way and stay that way by drilling over and over and over. The sounds saying a launch is about to happen . . . those sounds are weekly and may mean nothing. You would not want Russian attack subs killing a boomer that was just doing a drill.
A different take here:

Of course Putin wants the war to end ASAP. He does not want to lose his main supplier of drones and he is extremely embarrassed by the efficacy of the Iran’s air defense system, which was supplied by Russia.
Israel took out the Russo-Iranian drone factory in Tabriz, Iran earlier today.
“As long as the negotiations include Ukraine’s total surrender and handing over Nazi to be exterminated.”
Luckily for you, Trump has forgiven Zelensky for coming to our country and intefering in our election last year. Then campaigning for Harris and then insulting Trump and Vance. That wasn’t enough so he went to PA and campaigned for the Democrat in the hotly contested Senate Race. It’s telling that you Ukies never respond when anyone posts this.
