It’s incredible that article after article talking about these Medvedev comments, don’t provide the context that they were immediately after a top US military general bragged about being able to take the Russian region of Kaliningrad in one day in the event of any conflict.

They all make it sound as if he said it for no reason, not in response to anything.

While you were sleeping, Trump morphed into Lindsay Graham

So what? They are not in a hurry.
They lose less men if they go slowly.
Russia is not trying to get territory quickly
This is attritional warfare

I disagree.

If it was a stalemate, Ukraine wouldn’t be so desperate for a cease fire and end. They are desperate for it.

Attritional wars can appear to be a stalemate for quite a while, until one side can’t replace losses enough and there is a more broad and rapid collapse.

There was a way to stop this war with negotiations in turkey, which Boris Johnson convinced Ukraine to scuttle. They would have had drastically less people and territory losses had they agreed

zelensky and supposed pro Ukrainian Europe absolutely do not give a damn about hundreds of thousands more Ukrainian dead and maimed, actual Ukrainian desperately trying to avoid getting pushed into vans and taken to the front. Millions fled the country because they do not want to fight. Those outside are not volunteering at all

This article talks in terms of outings personal motives instead of Russia’s, which is totally misleading for the reader it is the opposite, zelensky is the one motivated by personal interests.

Don’t you guys wish the USA would flush a few hundred more billion on the corrupt black hole of Ukraine?

There has never been a more profitable time in world history to be a politician or defence company marketer.

You can set up your family for life with villas in Switzerland.

The end result is hundreds of thousands more dead and maimed Ukrainians, which almost none of the “pro Ukrainian” actually give a damn about.

I don’t think either side is in a position to teach the other a lesson. More like a scene in a Western where they all have guns pointed at each other and slowly put them away

Thanks for posting. My limited experience made me assume all the things you are saying already, thanks for confirming. I hope I can minimize my dependence on people with callous indifference or even malice.

I’m not sure who you’re talking about but it’s just hilarious to call them “pod people”. From invasion of body snatchers right?

Very sad to see trump endorse the catastrophe of Lindsey Graham. Broke my heart

You make a lot of sense to me.
Saves me a lot of typing

At the moment it is very hard to imagine a deal that both sides would agree to. Russia is winning, and zelensky is happy to push a few hundred thousand more men into vans and trenches to get maimed and die rather than make a realistic deal.

One of the most powerful disincentives for marriage and children is family court, which absolutely ruins many men for life, large numbers of them committing suicide or ending up homeless.

i recommend sintra

thanks
