The boys on The Duran were speculating that when the Ukes realize that the American neocons used them as cannon fodder, they’ll go the way of the Chechens and become great pals of the Russians.

Is now the appropriate time to return to Poland the lands forcefully and unjustly taken from Poland and given to Ukraine at the end of WW2?

Once the LDNR militia liberates Donbas and the Russian strikes soften everywhere else, the Chechen scenario is inevitable. Ukrainians from the east are going to denazify the rest of the country, just like Chechens deterrorized theirs.

The Polish want it, their railroads are running trains with maps including these parts and the cities named in Polish manner. The problem is that the Galicians hate the Polish more than they hate Russians. Also the Polish are going to ethnically cleanse them, unlike Russians. Can you imagine Polish tolerating Bandera avenue, related statues and a school program where Hitler is a liberator?

No, that was 75 years ago. Leave the borders as they are.

The Ukraine has about 33 times the population that Chechnya had, even more land area, and qualitatively (as the article points out) an overwhelmingly better defense (a real professional military force), as well as a gigantic advantage in International support.

The only things that the Ukraine and Chechnya have in common is their enemy, and it’s tactics. The scale of the resistance is somewhere around 100 to 1,000 times as great.

Looks like Putin has to settle for stealing the Donbas region and the land bridge to Crimea. Which means Putin has failed twice now. First failure was in taking Mariupol eight years ago. Second, despite having 8 years to plan and prepare, Putin now fails to take Kyiv.

Russia is on the way to becoming a vassal State of China.

The Chechens figured out that the neocons were using them for cannon fodder.

The Ukes will figure it out, too.
