The annexed Crimea in the winter especially in dire need of the support of the Mainland, in which Russia will do anything to join the Donbass and the peninsula. The ex-Defense Minister Igor Tenûh on Channel 5.
According to him, the Crimea in the winter to survive without the Mainland Ukraine very hard. However, he did not rule out the possibility of air strikes on the Ukrainian cities.
"This does not mean that everyone should go to the front, to each city responsible for preparing the population to air strikes. Combine all of the management in the hands of the General staff, who will be responsible for all processes. God grant that this truce held, but do not think that Putin will abandon his plans" notes Tenuh.
Besides, according to Tenuha, Russia had issued passports in the Donbass region to make some semblance to the region of Abkhazia. Ukraine, in his view, should respond to this effective preparation for a full-scale invasion.
Previously, the group is told that NATO already has a plan in case of a Russian invasion.
See what happens when you disarm to please the Russians?
The Russian-loving former wannabe dictator of Ukraine gave those up over a decade ago along with some bombers that weren’t scrapped. The pro-Russian regime looted the country and military and now that it was overthrown, Putin invades
Dang, now the Ukraine is going to invade Russia!
Send the reactor back to them one dirty bomb at a time.
Every thing was financed through Moscow, just like Washington DC owns every thing in the US. If Texas secedes, they are not going to take the Houston space Station with them.
If you mean the International Space Station, correct.
If you mean the Johnson Space Center, yeah we’ll keep that.
Like Scotland, the seceding state should get a cut of whatever. Scotland expects some fighter jets and some naval vessels if they get independence.
Ukraine was a slave state of the Soviet empire, you are making out that they are still slaves or something
Moscow literally looted the slave states and doesn’t deserve to keep the spoils.
You sure have a unique memory of what the Soviet empire was, and how it was created, what it meant for the enslaved, and what it took for the Russians to keep it enslaved for so long.
Kiev , in Ukraine was the initial capital Russia. Kruschev, was from the Ukraine. It was very influential for many years. They were as much masters as they were unfortunate 'citizens'.
And you are making out that they are different from the 'bosses' that ran the USSR.
Up shot is that what we have is a new democratic forward moving Russia versus a take your marbles, lost in the past nazi run Ukraine, supported by a 'free world' eager to take control of the vast wealth of Russia .
Russia is weak and the potential looters smell blood. But Putin is determined and dangerous. We should butt out.
Russia is recreating the Evil Empire as we speak
There is nothing democratic about today’s Russia nor are state-owned industries “forward moving”
wow. So now, Ukraine and Estonia are picking on Russia. wow.
That is invading it's neighbors and forcing all of Europe to move closer to war footing to defend itself.
Perhaps you should move your allegiance to our side, rather than the evil empire's.
Poor Russians, after living in serfdom and then communism, are hated and blamed for everything. Bur now under a democracy, they seem to be moving forward, while we are going in the other direction.
You aren't playing with a full deck, are you.
Hardly, grow up. Paying $15 billion to topple a duly elected Ukrainian president, and pushing NATO onto Russia's border is the problem.
Ukraine and Estonia are pawns. If this western assault continues, they will suffer the most.
And the cards he has are imaginary.
wow you are delusional!
western assault?
Russia is the one invading Ukraine.
Let the people of Ukraine choose their own leaders, let their Parliament depose them if they want.
Moscow should have nothing to say about it.
