Ukraine - Russia Conflict (Original Title: Things are heating up in the Donbass)

[spat]

There will be no agreement, or one that heavily favors Russia. this is just theater, Putin will delay consider, counter ect. He's buying time , Trump is going to talk to him today, Most likely he will yes yes him and then back out at the last minute because of something, Hes going to stall Trump .

How long do you think Trump will put up with that ?

Right now Trump is pissed at Zelensky for his shenanigans, and that is very much to Putin's advantage.

But if Trump decides that Putin is yanking his chain as you suggest, then I think that will go very badly for Putin.

How so?

 

[spat]

How so?

Trump is likely to switch his support and will be more favorable to Ukraine in any negotiations.

You forget that neither Zelensky nor Putin are in charge here. They are both already all in on this war. Neither of them have the ability to escalate anything any further, short of Russia going full nuclear.

 

[fresch]

Hahaha,
I told you after Russia gets to the farm and minerals they want and the U.S.A. gets their cut the war will end; with the death of zelensky .

I'm not so sure that applies anymore in 2025 with intercontinental missiles and bombers, cyber attacks, stealth, etc.

Even if somehow Russia subjegated all of Europe why would we necessarily "have to do something"?

Based on modern technology there is nearly instant global reach. This isn't the 1910s or 1930/40s anymore. We don't need to be in Europe to deter Russia. I don't want to be. I'm not willing to risk a million American boys fighting a war that some assholes started that we can and should sit out.

Russia isn't our enemy. They can't invade us.

We need to worry about China.

And so does Russia.

[Drinkthekoolaid]

Robin

And so does everyone in Ukraine not profiting from the war.

Their country is in shambles and has lost a generation of men.

This needs to stop. They need to be pragmatic.

I don't need to see any more men who are being kidnapped by their own government who are fathers, husbands, sons and uncles that matter to their families being kidnapped off the street, beaten, stuffed into vans and sent off to die or be maimed.

Kinda what Vietnam was for us growing up in the 60s n 70s.

The famous Ukrainian neo-Nazi Demyan Ganul was killed in Odessa**: EADaily

EADaily, March 14th, 2025. A well-known Ukrainian neo-Nazi Demyan Ganul **, who was one of the organizers of the arson of the House of Trade Unions on May 2, 2014, was killed in Odessa.

eadaily.com

Update: His killer was Ukrainian Army Lieutenant. Apparently Damyan Ganul was collecting money on social media to buy a pick up truck to donate to a specific military unit. As it already happened in the past he pocketed the money and the vehicle was never delivered to the front line. The military unit sent this Lieutenant to find out what happened to their truck. An argument ensued and Lieutenant was kidnaped and roughed up by Ganul and his friends. He spent some time recovering in the hospital and as an act of vengeance shot Damyan Ganul in the middle of the city, in broad daylight and walked away with a handguns in his hand, not even trying to hide his identity.

Ganul was probably the most hated man in Odessa by all sides. He also made money by catching draft evaders and if they didn't have money to buy their way out, he would deliver them to military conscription centers.

He got his start on Maidan. Paid for and molded by U.S. government. He was also involved in burning alive of close to 50 anti-Maidan protesters in Odessa. What a guy.

You really think Putin has no say in this? If Putin wasnt in charge Trump wouldnt ask him for a truce.

The core of the Ukraine army is gone, theres no real experienced leaders Thier NCO's are wiped out , they are basically little more than a militia .Theres no trained people ready to use the weapons we send them . I told you Putin was going to play Trump for time, thats exactly what he did today. He's going to negotiate with Trump until Ukraine collapses.

Napoleon once said territory I can recover, but time I cannot . Trump just gave Putin exactly what Putin needed, time.

It aint over till the fat lady sings , Russia will take it all .

I don't know if they want all of the territory, but Russia will not accept a hostile anti-Russian state on its historic territory populated by their own ethnos.

 

[Robin]

Russia will be our strongest ally in the fight against China. The rest is immaterial.

All that that they want, I meant, probably to the Dniper river

I dont see it happening. The Russians see Ukraine as traditional Russian land , so they are not going to fight for it then just give it to the US to exploit. They may cut them in on the deal if the US finances the operation, but Hand over Russian lands to the US , LOL never. They would grow potatoes first.

I wouldn't count out Russia becoming the new chi-na as far as manufacturing goes.

If Trump gets his way, the US will be manufacturing again.

 

[fresch]

True, but the rooskies need their economy boosted after this winloss.
I can see where mainly the eu would be used as a chip in the U.S. deal to end the war.
After all the eu hates the U.S. too, probably more than they do the Russians.

That's being debated all over social media. Dneper river is a geographical line. It's not really how Ukraine is split culturally and historically. Kherson city became a part of Russia according to Russian Constitution, but geographically it's on the other side of Dneper. All of this is fluid at this point.

 

[Mosinitis]

Russia is not going to tie its future to whoever occupies the white house. They know better. While they see the benefit of good relations with the U.S., they are not banking their future on it or trust us to stick to our part of any deal. U.S. is in a different hemisphere, our presence in their part of the world is viewed accordingly.

It's what makes the most sense. Denper river is a natural barrier, and Western Ukraine is a buffer zone , If /when the Ukraine army collaspes its going to be there for the taking . the Opportunity of a lifetime will be sitting in front of Russian army , I would think its to much to resist. theres nothing to stop them

Key Takeaways From America’s Secret Military Partnership With Ukraine

An investigation by The New York Times has revealed that America was woven into the war far more than previously known.

www.nytimes.com

The most damaging information is in the full article - at one point the administration assessed the odds of a nuclear war between the US and Russia at 50% (!!??!!). All throughout the war the biden administration insisted publicly there was never any risk of a nuclear exchange. Yet internally they thought it was a coin flip!

The biden adminstration was insane.

It's very long but the podcast by Matt Taibbi and Walter Kirn discuss this at length here:

Boris Johnson spilled the beans.
The reason Zelensky government couldn't make peace with Russia after he came into office wasn't Putin. It was Ukrainian Nationalists who threatened his life if he made any deals with Russia on Donbas.

 

[Mosinitis]

This idiot wouldn't be able to find Ukraine on the map if his life depended on it. He is speaking to an audience that doesn't know and doesn't. care what the truth is. That's not how International diplomacy works. Putin is not an idiot who will give away hard earned victory, because some hillbilly is shaming him.

I wish I could say this is surprising. Many of us here has similar analysis and thoughts.

The Biden regime was wreck less, selfish and evil. Biden clearly was not in charge nor had any coherent lucid thoughts. His advisors and handlers who hid his mental decline for their own power and agenda all the while their actions nearly destroyed the country must be exposed.
