Putin has solidified his Boris Yeltsin v2. Ironic that they both may have passed due to health issues which would not have been life-threatening if they had lived in the West. Like I've said before, Russia is more akin to North Korea than it is to any European country, with similar population but much less land.
No more than Danes long for the Viking days of pillage and plunder, in my experience. It's fun to think about ruling half of England, but in practice - we have what's ours and we use it to make pretty successful lives for those within the country's borders, we can even help those outside - and that's not a bad deal.
No. Not a bad deal at all.
So many seem to have given up on dreams for the future in favor of trying to recover the past.
if I held up minced garlic to your nose would you smell it?
no, but I would cook with it. How do you feel about shrimp and scallops on the blackstone?
PS: if the soviets did not cross the border (yet again on a sovereign nation that wants to be left alone) this convo would not be happening. In this case, the Ukrs. want to kill soviet troops. Im all for helping them, as a world without soviets, is a better world. That has always held true.
A short video of what really happened around Kharkiv. A "fixing operation" to force Ukrainian troops to remain deployed around this city while the bulk of Russian forces concentrate on Donbas. The Russians never even took Kharkiv.
Liberated? Kharkiv was not even taken. What you talking about? Ukrainian forces pushed back the front line towards Russian state border some several kilometers and it all died there. Now they are holding defense.
As of the latest interesting news, Ukraine minister of defense announced nationwide draft to create 1 000 000 army, what will be 5 times that of the joint Russian forces.
How realistic that is, time will show, with males escaping Ukraine in troves or, hiding from draft.
But, it also points towards long term war intentions, until the last Ukrainian.

It does seem to be what the war is about will they remain Ukrainians or be made Soviets , I mean Russians.
I'm generally skeptical of CNN, but this seems well researched.
