Russian invasion of Ukraine

Absolutely mate, but as the defenders and not the aggressors I'll be fucking shouting for Ukraine. While simultaneously mourning every death.

Me too. X2. As any civilised person would.

All this additional equipment seems like the rest of the world has decided that this must stop and stop ASAP. There is no negotiating with ruSSia, the only thing they understand is violence and aggression. Could be an interesting few months coming up.

Things definitely seem to be warming up.

Unfortunately so this season :(

Their manager maintains that the Hammers have been playing well. It is known that he studies Kremlinology.

Will the EU and the US give Ukraine heavy battle tanks, they’ve been given troop carriers etc. However if you need to break through lines a tank does come into its own, the M1 Abrams is a good piece of kit the Yanks could supply, but it runs on specialist fuel which could slow it down keeping it going across Ukraine.

Any guesses as to how this war is likely to end or at least conclude the open warfare phase?

Could be years. All depends when putin is gone does the next in charge continue the war knowing the Russian mentality yes they will

One significant event that would change the direction would be the death of Putin (natural causes preferred so there are no claims of foul play)

Until then we just have to wait, continue to support and hope the Ukrainians are able to make significant gains on the battlefield to push the facists out, because I don't see them giving up any time soon.

If/when they push the Russians back over the border then what? Russia can just fling missiles in from their side, will the west support Ukraine doing the same? Would Ukraine be allowed to join NATO if still at war? Putin and his hardliners need to be removed I can only see an internal revolution doing this and as sanctions really kick in will this happen?
