--- "Great, another Biden apologist."

I agree with your assessment. The rhetorical game played is that there are only two choices -- Putin and not Putin -- and then demand is to choose one, as if we had a vote. No support for either Russia or Ukraine is a third and logical option for many, given that neither nations is 1) a member of NATO, 2) warring against other neighboring NATO countries, and 3) costing the debtor nation, the United States which carries $31,000,000,000,000.00 in federal debt to support one non-NATO side against another.

The lucrative moeny-laundering operation spanning years, which the names Biden, Pelosi, Kerry and Romney testify to, is being lost. Reason enough tor war to some. Especially if one is essentially a Biden apologist.

Not my circus and not my clowns. Excepting the clowns named above....

Actual evidence of trying to rebuild the USSR would consist of going beyond his stated and consistent goals of protecting Russia and Russians from external threats.

You do know that that's the exact same logic that Hitler used in building the Third Reich and annexing Austria and the Sudetenland, right?

Feb of this year the Poles passed laws banning Bandera Nazi Ideology.

The Ukraine went nuts.

From what I’ve gathered, it’s the US/NATO that are not interested in discussing peace.

Peace would be easy if the Russians just departed Ukraine and went home for good.

Not happening.

‘Peace’ could have been secured months ago - TWICE - if it had not been for them being sabotaged by the US and UK. Go figure, huh?

There is no amount of lipstick you can put on this pig that will make it right. The US State Dept. also did it’s best to interfere with Minsk II.

It is very likely the US was involved in destroying the gas pipelines to Europe.

As a result, the former state of Ukraine is in imminent danger of being swallowed whole.

American influence on this situation has been of no legitimate benefit to anyone.

“Meanwhile, the Ukrainians are rotating their front-line troops out of the fight every three days, according to one source.”

Thanks, I have been waiting for information on that.

Ukraine has pulled all its Reserve for this Kherson push.
Ukraine has also pulled all its Strategic Reserves.

Ukraine has little no reserves left.
This Kherson push is essentially all or nothing.

And if it goes as it is going now, it will be near game over as the Russians will no doubt push pretty much uncontested as far as it wants to push into Ukraine.

Better blow that Dam, yo.

It figures a Trump hater like yourself would quote Biden regime SOS Atony Blinken.

Russia has consistently sought negotiation. It came to us in December seeking to prevent this war. All the Russians wanted was a guarantee of Ukraine wouldn't join NATO and be neutral and Minsk Agreement, which Ukraine signed, implemented.

Russia and Ukraine almost came to an agreement in March in Turkey before we and Boris Johnson killed the deal.

Russia will be happy to leave what's left of Ukraine so long as Ukraine agrees to remain neutral and leave Russian territory alone. But, the annexed areas are going to remain part of Russia. And, that is what the people in those regions want.

You, Blinken and neocons lie like they breath.

Only that they’ve asked for negotiation, shot down by both Biden and his bought and paid-for sock-puppet Zelensky.

What exactly is to negotiate? Russia is the clear aggressor and invader.

The continued existence of a working viable Ukraine perhaps?

Russia has consistently sought negotiation.

Non-sense Comrade Kazan.

Comrade Putin made his intentions perfectly clear in his February 22, 2022 address:

Address by the President of the Russian Federation

The purpose of this operation is to protect people who, for eight years now, have been facing humiliation and genocide perpetrated by the Kiev regime. To this end, we will seek to demilitarise and denazify Ukraine, as well as bring to trial those who perpetrated numerous bloody crimes against civilians, including against citizens of the Russian Federation.

It is not our plan to occupy the Ukrainian territory. We do not intend to impose anything on anyone by force.

So how'd that work out, Comrade Kazan?

Then the Russians just need to go home. It's really pretty simple.

Keep things going as they are and there will be only one result: The full unconditional surrender by the Kyiv government.

Better seek a resolution, while Ukraine can.
