Ukraine was severely damaged today. The West can give them more weapons but after an attack like today it might be like throwing money away. A few more attacks like today and Ukrains infrastructure is mostly gone. Not a real Country and a disaster to live there.
My bet is we see a peace negotiation, maybe in next two months.
Russia had a bunch of fresh missiles come in as announced a couple of weeks ago.
And now they are probably out for a while again.
If they had done this day 1 instead of wasting a week walking aimlessly around it would have been a 3day war.
They allowed us to send in weapons which would not have been possible if they went all out day 1.
Hundreds of thousands of people are dead, hundreds of billions in infrastructure is ruined, the world economy is out trillions and the repercussions of this are nightmare fuel for everyone that has half a clue on how reliant we are of shit made half a world away as that is going to be devolving in chaos.
Interesting points. It does make one wonder how much of this, if not all, is just a movie that is mostly predetermined. The way it is going, we don't know how it will end. WWIII with Nato, US, West, etc. pushing Russia is seeming more likely but I think there are too many calm heads in US who won't let that happen. (I literally pray.)
I'll imagine Trump coming in and brokering a peace deal, but things are not looking good for peace.
It wasn't severely damaged outside of the illusion. An illusion that dented their normality. Larger attacks hitting home occur. 4 months since hitting Kiev. Awhile since some other places hit.
Weapons are immediately being sent to them. Air defenses are immediately going to Kiev. They already have major pledges of weapons on route from France, UK, and America.
I doubt it gives any pause to this conflict.
Meanwhile 3rd party peace ambassadors are enroute to discuss it.
No, it won't have done much else. Ukraine will keep attacking in the way they have.
They knocked out power, sewage, govt buildings, etc. This was a pretty heavy attack in my opinion. Heavy enough that there are some that see peace deals on the horizon. Anyway, I hope peace comes, but it seems, oddly enough, that the only Country that wants peace and has tried is Russia. Go figure.
Heavy sustained until they yield. Not whoosh. 1 hit wonder. Wonder what was that. Set up the next volley. Keep them on edge. I am categorically not saying this as a Russian. I am not, I'm pragmatic. Studied history and read some strategy.
Peace comes when they bow. They won't.
I don't care except there is no peace because both sides want what the other will not give, and there's almost no room for compromise, making it an empty gesture.
Any talks stall peace, any ceasefire arms the enemy. Peace takes even more provoking.
The narrative has dismissed peace with Russia, it has no fuel and cannot ship or fly supplies in, because the bridge is out of commission, and it has no diesel refineries. So charge at them, they will fail. They don't have any more hypersonics and very few cruise left. Seriously laughable. But it's the narrative.
It is strange, here in the West they don't speak of the past votes of the re-acquired and now annexed regions of Ukraine. I looked into it and the vote was the same a decade or two ago (on two occasions) as they are mostly ethnic Russians. And they don't mention the 2014 coup! lol
They don't talk about the verbal assurances made after 91' or so (where a few leaders said NATO would not move East.) They don't mention the killing of 14,000 (?) Russians in Donbass and they are now defending the Nazi's who do the killing there.
And the news won't even mention the Bio-labs (and the UN won't consider it.)
You know, on the one hand this seems like a planned set-up for a large war. I just don't get it outside that. It makes zero sense to push Russia into this war and MANY Westerners see this, but we have almost zero control of our deep state "leaders".
