      Lmao are you even paying attention? The whole point is to keep Russia on the offensive. They took Russian land and dug in.

      Now Russia has to get them off their land or look like even more of a fucking idiot

        I took a peek and as rheinmetall profits are ramping up smoke is coming out from Zaporizhzhia.

        Now Russia has to get them off their land or look like even more of a fucking idiot

        This isn’t a videogame, many people will die an horrible way and the war will just get fueled.

          Well damn, maybe Russia should stop invading a sovereign nation and commiting genocide. That would stop the war instantly, I’m sure going back to the 2012 borders would suit Ukraine just fine.

            I think not cheering up for actions that will not lead to the end of this war is the most intelligent thing to do in this case.

              So you’re saying Russia should stop the invasion so the war ends? I agree full heartedly.

                  Right back at ya, my vatnik friend ;)

                  Edit: See, if you’re gonna (try to) apply logical reasoning, you have to apply it consistently and objectively. Otherwise it stops being logic and turns into dogma.

              Strengthening Ukraine’s position in any way imaginable is the only thing that has a chance to lead to an end of this war.

                Strengthening authoritarian ukraine government in any way imaginable and squeeze them against russia will only result in war and misery for people.

                  Russia is kinda doing the squeezing, sorry mate. Their actions are what’s resulting in war and misery. Letting them have their way would lead to more war and more misery for even more people.

          Smoke from Запорізька АЕС (Запорожская АЭС) (not запорижжия or whatever) is questionable for the black smoke we’d seen is pretty weird for that kind of facility.

          What can end this war in your opinion? As it seems, if Ukraine give up, after a period of violence and filtration against locals, it won’t stop Russia from planning another SMO on Kazakhstan, Georgia, Lithuania, Moldavia or other countries state officials officially threatened. If Russia give up in this war and stop this bullshit there wouldn’t be any conflict and it’s own standards of living would slowly return to pre-Crimean levels.

          added Ukrainian naming as the first one because for some reason I thought it’s in contested russian territories, because, well, why our news scream about it that much?

            Not fueling it is a good way to go toward an end. Politicians and rulers are benefiting from this war, they don’t fight their wars they send others to die while they drink champagne.

            If Russia give up in this war and stop this bullshit there wouldn’t be any conflict

            The cold war never officially end

              Yeah, okay, but that means China, Iran and NK would keep pumping Russia up with weapons to keep obliterating Ukraine. One-sided cutting of supply wouldn’t work now or in the future.

              No one officially said it even started, lol. There wasn’t a note to proclaim it from either side. Yet, you can notice it wasn’t like in the 50s when in the 90s and 00s the relationships between countries got warmer.

                The west is doing business with china perfectly fine even as even you are aware that they supply russia in this war.

                One-sided cutting of supply wouldn’t work now or in the future.

                The west is the side that spend more and by a huge margin. Cutting the spending would work great for people now and in the future.
