I don't think that American NATO leadership is important for dealing with Russia. From the American perspective, the most important geo-political enemy is China. Even Putin should know that. Putin's Russia happens to be the only self sustaining Chinese ally. This is not ideal for America.I still don't know why some people bring up Germany spending more on defense or that Finland might join NATO or that there will be American leadership in NATO?? What is Europe without America when it comes to geopolitics?? I don't see Germany getting militarized or Finland joining NATO amounts to much when a B-Grade power like Russia is the main adversary of Europe. And even Russia is destined to join Europe before long--especially after Putin. A lot of garbage has been said about how Russia will duplicate the Soviet model of intimidations and conquests. People forget that NATO countries have the American backing and that Russia is a shadow of its former power. Sure, nobody would want to live under a sick Russia. I'd prefer a poor Pakistan or a poor Ecuador over Russia. But then Russia is not the threat as made out to be!
Here, watch it and ponder. Try to establish some perspective beyond what people perceive to be their national interests.
Yes, the John Mearsheimer school of great power geopolitics where the expansion of NATO is the true cause and motivator of Poutine's war on Ukraine.Here, watch it and ponder. Try to establish some perspective beyond what people perceive to be their national interests.
Russians have to consolidate and take the entire eastern bank of the Dniper River (as well as take the entire coast including Odessa) if there is any hope for them to salve this operation, otherwise they seem to have bogged themselves down pretty well in this quagmire.View attachment 824010

Who is he? I don't remember seeing him on TV. Don't think that he can convince people that he will make America great again
Watching this guy. Benny Hodges definitely has political ambitions.
This article is worth reading:
Interesting map. Russia has surrounded Mariupol (431000 population) and Melitopol (150000 population) cities. Chernihiv, Sumy, Kherson, Mykolaiv almost surrounded, Kharkiv and Kyiv are the next target of major offensive. Once these cities fall then Russia should be able to take hold of East Ukraine.
Trust this guy.... The French know everything about surrendering and losing...
Indiscriminate shelling by Russian forces in Kharkiv:
You helplessly brainwashed mind must be extremely surprised if I tell you that there are a significant number of Chinese public actually support Ukraine, isn't it?You guys here support Russia because The Party ORDERED you to support Russia.
