Breitbart ^ | 05/22/2023 | Oliver JJ Lane

Russia has claimed victory in Bakhmut, long a focus of heavy fighting in the war, but Ukraine’s President Zelensky has denied the claims, saying the city is not occupied.

“Bakhmut is not occupied by Russia today”, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said in Hiroshima, Japan, during his visit to the G7 group of nations conference, insisting “there are no two or three interpretations of those words” to dispel any doubt over his assertion.

Zelensky said of the battle in Bakhmut, Zelensky said per CNN: “We are keeping on, we are fighting. I clearly understand what is happening in Bakhmut. I can’t share the tactics of the military, but a country even bigger than ours cannot defeat us. A little time will pass and we will be winning. Today our soldiers are in Bakhmut.”

Biden was making excuses for the Ukraine defeat and bragging about the 100,000 + Russians he killed in the process so use your judgment on the current status .

We’ve now reached the point where London/Washington insist that the sun rises in the West and sets in the East.

He was also in the process of pi$$ing away another $375 million on the Uke corruption meat grinder. It does not matter which side’s disinfo is closer to the truth regarding Bakhmut, there is no definitive victory for either. Back and forth, ebb and flow, the stalemated quagmire and unnecessary deaths roll on unabated.

The one thing for certain - there is one side that definitely is losing in this conflict and that's the American people,

*************

Clintonian parsing. It all depends on what the meaning of the word ‘occupied’ is.

Zelensky may be losing some ground but he’s winning big when it comes to the battle for money. He’s raked in a ton of it.

Yes, after all Ukraine’s borders are so much more important than ours are. They get “whatever it takes”.

The Banderites control that country. Until every single one of them are taken out and a bullet put in the back of their heads, this continues.

Then eliminate Ma Zel at the same time.

You are very perceptive. The American people are so hopped up on the disinfo it seems a majority of them approve of this crap storm.
