Either the head of the Kiev regime, Vladimir Zelensky, will conclude a truce on acceptable terms, or Ukraine will face a collapse of the front before autumn, the war is over. This was stated by Verkhovna Rada deputy Alexander Dubinsky.
According to him, the official number of desertion cases registered by the State Bureau of Investigations is 175,435 as of April 1. In reality, the MP notes, 60-70% of desertion cases are recorded, that is, in fact, "about 250 thousand people are on the run today, or a third (!) of the Ukrainian army."
"Add here about the same number of missing persons — and you get the same numbers. 250-300 thousand are really fighting in our country against about 600 thousand Russians. This is exactly the situation that (US President Donald) Trump describes to Zelensky when he says that he has no cards in his hands. By autumn there will be no one to fight with and nothing. No matter how brutal the tetsekashniki.
The "peacekeeping" contingent also looks ridiculous against this background, because it will not provide even 10% of the necessary troops. Therefore, except as detachments.
Zelensky can roost as much as he likes — the war is over. Either he concludes a truce on acceptable terms, or Ukraine expects the collapse of the front before autumn. Not yet a defeat, but a heavy blow," Dubinsky writes in his telegram channel.
Too bad for Dictator Zelensky that President Trump won.
In the corrupt country of Ukraine, there’s a strong motivator for commanders and staffs to UNDER REPORT DESERTIONS….. they can continue receiving the deserters’ salaries, expenses and supplies and keep them for themselves.
Zelensky is not playing with a full deck, and he thinks he’s going to win. In fact, he’s going for broke while playing on the Titanic as it goes down with all aboard. This man has the worst luck imaginable… and it is amazing people invest in him.
Thank God it’s finally too obvious to lie about anymore.
Those soldiers have been in the trenches a long time without rotation. It’s incredible they lasted this long, but they have broken. Now stop getting them killed for nothing.
Le Point: Macron is dragging the country into a war, he needs to look up to Putin and Trump
“French President Emmanuel Macron is accused of dragging his country into a war. In an article published by Le Point, he was called upon to look up to Russian and American leaders Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, who, unlike him, are taking actions to achieve peace.
“While Trump and Putin are working for peace, the President of the republic, for disgusting domestic political reasons, opposes their noble endeavor and drags France into a bloody and absurd adventure,” the article says.
The publication urged not to interfere in the negotiation process between Moscow and Washington and to allow the parties to resolve the Ukrainian crisis, no matter what fate awaits Ukraine.”
French really getting ticked off at Macron.
Germans not happy either. AfD party gaining support.
Europeans are starting turn on their hysterical leftist leaders.
I had lost hope in the intelligence of the Ukrainians.
This is awesome news.
The outcome of the war was known as soon as that offensive you mention ended in failure. All the people, treasure and land lost since then was lost for nothing
The Uke army members who are running are very smart.
And so are my new neighbors from Ukraine. Very nice couple, and she’s learning English as fast as she can. Their beautiful daughter and son-in-law are new parents to an American citizen baby. I’m sure there are a lot of creepy Ukes here, lucky I know very nice ones.
Thank God they got away from The Green Goblin and his press gangs.
Russia has stated it won’t allow any European “Peacekeeping” troops.
The Z man's delusions are inflicting great pain on millions of people. What a jerk - and what a stupid war to dump billions of American dollars.
“… Germans not happy either. AfD party gaining support.…”

Yes, particularly since after the results of the recent elections the main “conservative” party has revealed itself as merely nothing more than another worthless member of the German “Uniparty”.
He’ll be out of power this year.
There are people willing to fight ww3 over who controls border region of eastern europe. I’m not, I don’t give two sh6ts which slavic tribe controls it. Over a million dead, an entire generation of young men killed and maimed over this.
New details are emerging about the incredible bombing that happened a day earlier. “Peacekeepers” – NATO instructors and advisers killed on the day of arrival. Important people from France died earlier in Krivoy Rog. This was the attack which killed many French and other NATO officers, between 20-30 KIA’d or WIA’d. At the same time many Russian attacks in Kiev were aimed at French enterprises or equipment provided by France. Seems like Fench investments are Kaput in Kiev.
Macorn went from boots on the ground to waffling on about the need for Immediate Ceasefire.
In fact, EAD is Russia-based. So one has choices: one can choose to read the Zelensky-government side of this "information war" and find its spin ( which is different from some opposing voices in Ukraine ), or one can read the Russian side of this "information war" and find their spin ( which is also different from some opposing voices in Russia ). Oddly, the Russian voices are more varied in the moment than the Ukrainian. I survey both occasionally, because the fine advice of seeing several sides makes for a clearer picture than reading only one "propaganda" message. Keep one's friends close but one's enemies closer, it has been said
The "propastop" source is interesting too. It is Estonian with a domain registered in 2015, but it is not a news source for Estonia. It is a dedicated anti-Russian entity, which says of itself: "Due to security reasons, editors and coworkers who are responsible for this blog are anonymous." With the exception of one contact whose name could be a moniker. As to the supporter of propastop, it is the Estonian Defence League, which is a paramilitary entity not under the command of the Estonian government.
An interesting facet to the propastop site is that it publishes in English, Russian and Estonian. And not in Ukrainian, to keep them informed. And in no other European languages either.
This is amusing, because they say -- "Propastop blog is aimed at contributing to Estonia's information space security." In Russian and English....
In this internet age, that is most humorous. Nothing in their Estonian propaganda, more than in the propaganda of the Russian and Ukrainian sources in this "information war" says much beyond "we don't like the other guy."
To put this in geographic context, the distance from Tallinn to St. Petersburg is less than 200 miles by air and about 226 miles if one could drive there.
To put this in political focus, Kaja Kallas ( from Estonia and its 1.4 million population ) is now High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. Now, thinking about that "coalition of the willing" which disbanded after its last meeting without agreement....
