“Russia will take somewhere between a third and half the country and keep it.”
So you admit it. Russia’s war on Ukraine is a naked grab for territory and resources, a violation of another country’s sovereignty. Innocent Ukrainians raped, tortured and murdered by vladolf’s orcs, just because they can. And you think it’s wonderful, and correct, and should continue.
How many rubles are you earning for pushing this crap on FR, vatnik?

I am posting a US legendary Financial great’s assessment. I take it you are a Ukie war cheerleader? If so, I take it you have also been vaxed, bought into the Covid vax hoax also? Fool me once, fool me twice….wake up, it pays to seek out both sides.
Ahh, the first village idiot wakes up... 😎
Uh, did you just learn that Putin is a murderous sociopath? He is soon to be the richest one in the world with several trillion dollars he just too from Ukraine because he knew Biden is a sissy pervert with no morals himself.

Turning on the messenger is not the way to accomplish anything toward the truth. Truth can be applied in the way it is presented. I’ve taken a lot of heat from people on the board for basically saying the same things with the actuality being later accomplished. I got bad mouthed too.
“Russia’s war on Ukraine is a naked grab for territory and resources, a violation of another country’s sovereignty.”
What did you think it was for? If you read up on it you’ll find that the USSR was governing areas to include the Ukraine as late as the early 1990’s. And all the resources were theirs. So when the Ukraine took the step to separate from the USSR when the soviet states toppled, and the Ukrainians bailed to become that sovereign nation you mentioned, is that any difference from the south succeeding the north with US history in 1861?
This war didn’t start in 2022. It actually started about 15 years before the Ukraine bailed. And relations between Russia and the Ukraine had been on thin ice even longer before that.
As for taking control of the Ukraine for resources, there was a lot of weaponry to deal with in the Ukraine...and still is. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Ukraine gained its independence and inherited the third largest nuclear stockpile in the world, along with significant means of its design and production. The country had 130 UR-100N intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) with six warheads each, 46 RT-23 Molodets ICBMs with ten warheads apiece, as well as 33 heavy bombers, totaling approximately 1,700 warheads remaining on Ukrainian territory. While Ukraine had physical control of the weapons, it did not have operational control, as they were dependent on Russian-controlled electronic Permissive Action Links and the Russian command and control system. In 1992, Ukraine agreed to voluntarily remove over 3,000 tactical nuclear weapons. And the word tactical is loosely used here.
Following the signing of the 1994 Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances among the U.S., the U.K., and Russia, as well as similar agreements with France and China, Ukraine agreed to destroy the rest of its nuclear weapons, and to join the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). By 1996, Ukraine transferred all Soviet-era strategic warheads to Russia. Or so they both say.
After all these years, with Russia regaining a lot of the power they had, they want their resources back. This civil war has been in existence for many years, whether on paper or open combat, and we shouldn’t be in it in any way. The same as countries based out of Europe should have stayed out of our civil war. What delta7 is displaying is very true. And the US was aware of it’s coming well in advance of 2022...like around 1981. People with your ideas on it may not like it, but nothing he said has not happened yet but can happen and probably will. I was there and involved with the NBC side of the problem as early as the mid 1980’s.
It ain’t over yet and there are a lot of people to include US citizens that will pay the price for walking into a clothesline either bodily or financially. And as resources for us continue to dwindle, and get more demanding financially, how many people have to be hurt or killed for their civil war? And all we had to do was nothing and let them settle their own destiny. But like Korean, Vietnam, Bosnia, Afghanistan, Serbia, North Africa, and a number of conflicts just like them the public doesn’t know about, we couldn’t let it alone and each time we’ve paid the price. We need to shut up and stand down when one of these comes into view.
