Russian invasion of Ukraine

[TinFoilHat]

If the Ukrainians can take back Mariupol then Russia won't be able to keep Donbass.

I wonder if that's why the Chinese are pushing for peace now?

At the start the soldiers were fully trained standing army including veterans, now they're conscripts with the bare minimum basic training (in some cases not even that).

And the Ukrainians will be attacking with far superior weapons and tactics

There are many, many reasons and if that's one it's a very minor one. They've no reason to care what territory Russia holds or doesn't hold to it's west. The Chinese have the Russians over a barrel for decades to come regardless of what happens now, there's no profit to them in this war continuing.

These events will not only piss Putin off, but will start to worry the incumbents of these areas. Bring it on

The bbc report says near the 136km marker, which would put it around Unecha according to google earth.

Not far from a town called Suzemka (NW of Kharkiv), which the bbc quotes as being shelled by Ukraine resulting in 4 deaths there. Can't see much of significance near the town, but it does have a railway junction, so maybe a potential supply line.

Once the yanks have good adverts for their weapons they'll agree with China to setting up a peace deal. Russian will want territory and Ukraine protection.

I predict Donbas becoming Russian in return for their acceptance of Ukraine becoming part of NATO.

I keep asking this question when the issue of a negotiated settlement is raised, and am yet to receive an adequate or meaningful response, but I’ll try again:

What is the point in doing a deal with a country that manifestly won’t keep to it?

Or do you think they will?

When Ukraine gets the cruise missiles, then we should see some fireworks
