Deutsche Welle ^

Ukraine's military said it was working to evacuate all remaining troops from the Azovstal steelworks in Mariupol.

"The 'Mariupol' garrison has fulfilled its combat mission," the General Staff of Ukraine's Armed Forces said in a statement on Facebook.

"The supreme military command ordered the commanders of the units stationed at Azovstal to save the lives of the personnel... Defenders of Mariupol are the heroes of our time."

The rest of Mariupol is already under Russian control. The city had been under Russian siege since the start of the war.

Translation: Nazi troops hold up at the steel plant have been eliminated or captured.

“Ukraine’s military said it was working to evacuate all remaining troops from the Azovstal steelworks in Mariupol.”

Well, each time I see a claim like this, I’ll respond:

This is a SURRENDER, as the people leaving the steelworks are coming out, unarmed, with white flags, and walking over to Russian troops. The opportunity to actually evacuate ended the first week of the war.

At least Deutsche Welle didn’t put “evacuate” in the headline.

Agree, I thought for a moment that they trying to be honest - until I read the first sentence.

Daily Mail is often quite good on some topics, but on Ukraine, they seem to be the mouthpiece of MI-6.

Agreed. They were my overseas go-to during the virus.

No longer.

Once globalist elements moved into DM it’s all downhill there from here on.

So, when does a retreat turn into a victory? Only in a Zalensky world. Funny. Spell check for Zalensky is Lewinsky.

So much for those brave Neo-Nazis fighting to the death. Elon Musk, you failed.

I feel that this is very sad.

However, if all Ukrainian civilians and soldiers leave the city, and it is held by Russian troops, then Ukrainian solders can level it and the Russians inside the city limits. The NATO and US howitzers should help do a lovely job of destroying Russians.

Declare victory and withdraw all your forces.

This is the modern version of “winning.”

There is nothing “lovely” about killing people.

Anyone who ever thought Ukraine could defeat Russia has been living in a dream world.

A prolonged war in Ukraine is nothing but a death sentence for Ukrainians.

The West should have been driving hard toward a negotiated settlement from the start.

Globalists hate Russia for its nationalism and think destroying Russia is “good” for the world. (The one-world government concept)

Putin is not the most hard-core nationalist in Russia. Getting rid of him won’t eliminate Russian nationalism. Many in Russia think he has been TOO RESTRAINED in this war.
