DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) - Syria said Wednesday it will recognize the "independence and sovereignty" of Ukraine's eastern Luhansk and Donetsk regions and contacts will be established to set up diplomatic relations.

Earlier this month, Russia claimed to have taken control of 97% of one of the two provinces that make up Ukraine's Donbas, bringing the Kremlin closer to its goal of fully capturing the eastern industrial heartland of coal mines and factories.

Sounds like that "97%" in Luhansk is growing by the hour, as the city of Lysychansk either seems to have fallen or is on the cusp of falling.

The other day, CNN wrote an article along the lines of "Biden officials privately admit Ukraine may not recover all the lost territory from the war."

No duh.

Thank goodness we spent that 40+ billion to see Ukraine get rolled. Money well spent.

Very good and somewhat different interview of Scott Ritter in which he offers insights about Russia which Americans could greatly benefit from.

Syria to recognize Ukraine's Luhansk and Donetsk regions

Even, Kazakhstan, Russia's ally, will not recognize Russian controlled Luhansk as independent.

"President Tokayev Says Kazakhstan Will Not Recognize Donetsk, Lugansk as Independent States"

President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has made it clear that Kazakhstan has no intentions to recognize the independence of the so-called Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics.

President Tokayev believes that if the right to self-determination is put into practice worldwide, then there will be over 600 countries instead of the 193 states which are currently members of the United Nations.
