US News ^ | 9/5/2022 | Reuters

A Russian-installed official in Ukraine's Kherson region said on Monday that plans for a referendum on joining Russia had been "paused" due to the security situation, the Russian state-owned news agency TASS reported.

Kirill Stremousov, deputy head of the Russian-appointed military-civilian regional administration, also said the vital Antonivskyi road bridge, which crosses the Dnipro river near Kherson city, was impassable to cars after weeks of Ukrainian shelling.

Russian-installed officials had previously suggested that referendums on joining Russia would be held in September in Kherson, as well as in neighbouring Zaporizhzhia region and the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk People's Republics, to coincide with local elections in Russia.

The West/EU/UK/US/NATO are simply bleeding Ukraine to its death.

Personally, I would be utterly ashamed.

The West/EU/UK/US/NATO better pray daily hoping the overall Ukrainian populace never wakes up and realizes that they were slaughtered, killed, maimed, wrecked, and bleed to utter destruction simply to be used as a killing field against Russia....
They going to be really pissed off.

This conflict was 100% AVOIDABLE but because of the sheer amount of anti-Russia hatred that has long been spewed by the West/EU/UK/NATO and especially the US, Ukraine will pay the ultimate price for that hubris.

Accordingly, the severe economic downturn in both the US and EU, is proof enough of its continued demise from its piss poor foreign policy decision making.

So in your opinion Ukrainians should cheerfully accept the russian boot on their throat again, as they have suffered so many times before in their history?

Tell the ZelenskyyIdiot Nazi Regime to make recompense for the 8 years worth of shelling and Gestapo style killing of Russian speaking civilians in the Donbass region prior to Russia taking action?

Tell the US/UK/EU/NATO that they should have heeded Putin’s warnings to stop expanding NATO to Russian borders?

Again, 100% avoidable but yeah, some of us know who blood thirsty NEOCONS of all flavors and sizes and political persuasion are..... and Ukraine will pay the ultimate price.

—> Tell Putin to leave Ukraine.

Putin isn’t in Ukraine.

He is in Russian territory, solidifying $1 trillion of new mineral and energy wealth.

Ukraine disputes that claim, but then they’ve yet to take it back… even with hundreds of billions of equipment, training, & cash payments.
