already 185 tanks destroyed that cannot be used anymore in donbass and before nato/afu gets kicked out of kursk it will be 200💥💥💥
don’t worry, according to sputnik, trump’s team has already advanced a cunning plan to freeze the conflict, inflict a dmz, and keep ukraine out of nato for a while longer!!
c’mon, what’s not to like? what d’ya mean ‘minsk 3’?
does freezing now mean r.f. doesn’t take donbass, zapo etc (which all voted to be russian) or ukr keeps the bits of kursk it still hangs onto? who knows?
freezing is the good word, because temperatures
dropped below zero in kursk togehter with rain and snow. armoured vehicles will soon get stuck and troops cannot be rotated out of the cold. the end for nato/afu is near✌️
‘freezing the conflict’ (btw a technical method used by usa in korea 1953) at this stage would benefit only ukraine and the west (allowing refreshing/regrouping in ukr and imposing a dmz) regardless of ‘general winter’.
but can ptn, 1, finish the smo, 2, denazify ukr and (most importantly), 3, stand up to trump in january? if not the smo will remain unfinished business, and r.f. will be pinned behind a fence until the west tries again.
dprk troops have an opportunity to train on nato troops if russia leaves any for them
fuk trump. onwards to odessa. they know they lost, now they want peace pht. and only a 20yr peace. dismantle ukraine
