If bridges are blowing up around Kiev then Ukraine is about to fall in days. I suspect that if the resistance gets too strong in Kiev then then Russia will start a very intense bomb and rocket campaign on critical infrastructure.

Wouldn’t that prevent them from getting out?

Ukraine’s president agreed to negotiations on neutrality (this would entail removal from their constitution the clauses defining intent to join the EU and NATO).

One would think they will be allowed 24-48 hours to agree to Russian terms. At the end of which the advance resumes.

But there will be no need. They will agree. It will be surrender labeled something else.

Why would they want to go east?

I hope they waited for tanks to be on the bridges.

Sure would, unless their combat engineers build a pontoon bridge.

Someone needs to destroy the bridge between Russia and the Crimea over the Kerch Strait.

That would frost Putin’s balls.

As they approach are the Ukrainians able to inflict casualties?

Hey. It’s easy for us to comment. They at least need our prayers.

Russia is going to end up with a land bridge to the Crimea for transportation and water at the end of this operation. That is at least part of what this is about.

There's a real paucity of information about fighting, where the Russians are, what they have taken - and what they have failed to take.

but if they are truly ready to enter Kiev, then it doesn't bode well for the Zelensky regime.

Also, armchair general and historian I am - even more important for the Russians, they will take everything along the Black Sea to Romanian Border, particularly Odessa. They will probably leave a rump, landlocked Western Ukraine, but if 350 years of Russian history has taught us anything - they want total control of Black Sea access. Putin has said nearly as much - talking constantly about the errors of Lenin and Kruschev in bureaucratically creating Ukraine's present borders.

“Ukraine is about to fall in days”

Remember the good old days last week when you said this was all just a false flag and now here you are cheerleading for a Russian victory?

All that I can say to that is that the Biden Regime has lied so much and so blate toy that you can’t believe anything they say.

Do you believe that you are a deplorable Nazi because that’s what Biden and his leftist fellow travelers have been calling you.

When someone says they hate you the. It is wise to believe them and trust them in nothing.

Begone slave.

I also laugh at the assclown Putin who calls the Jewish President of Ukraine a Nazi.

It’s OK, Biden will have it rebuilt with funds from his “infrastructure” bill. Hunter will manage contracts.
