Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments

[Vergennes]

Putin is deliberately sending his generals to the front lines for execution for bad planning of invasion -

Don't forget to add just like in Chechnya the russians don't even bother to recover their deads.

They are fighting there on russian side ... " In 2014, Russia had approximately 2,000 of t-64 which it had phased out of service and slated for destruction" so they send them guess where and guess where they are ussed now ...

T-64 - Wikipedia

Exactly most of the equipment is outdated about to retire or retired. Why would russians abandon so much equipment until or unless its doctrine or about to be retired vehicles.

I personally think 2 things about the most modern equipment.
They just don't have much of the stuff (no money for them)

Yeah. All these dozens of different IFV modifications,MRAPs and new weapons for years and just prototypes or in very small numbers. The only ones that I see in big numbers are the Tigr and the KAMAZ Typhoon.

They haven't even found a solution for the Bayraktar and other drones.

He seems like he wants to surrender...

Which I don't think he will do

I can only say you are not Zelenskyy, and you probably should not ever be in any command position.

that's your opinion. I know when to take a small hit so I can come back later. It's all about patience. Finland did it in 1944 and 1948. They agreed to those exact terms: they gave up territory lost in the Soviet counterattack against them in WW2 since they were allies with Nazi Germany, they agreed to neutrality. Now where is Finland? They've basically won in the end.

By your logic they shouldn't have surrendered in 1944. They should've fought to the death alongside Nazi Germany. No surrender. But what would that have gotten them?

White House warns China over sanctions​

Beijing called Russia its “most important” partner despite the West’s backlash to the military campaign in Ukraine

The US has hinted at retaliation against China should it avoid following sanctions imposed on Russia after its attack on Ukraine late last month. Beijing, meanwhile, consistently argued that economic restrictions only exacerbate conflicts.

During Monday’s press briefing, White House spokesperson Jen Psaki was asked if sanctions will push Moscow into deeper ties with Beijing.

“They can’t backfill the impact of these sanctions from China. It’s just not possible,” Psaki argued. “Now, we’ve also seen China abide by the sanctions that have been put in place.”

At the same time, Psaki noted that Beijing abstained when the UN General Assembly voted to condemn Russia’s attack on Ukraine last week.

“If they don’t abide by the sanctions, we always have – you know, we clearly have means to take steps, but that’s what we’ve seen to date,” the White House spokesperson said.

China has backed a diplomatic solution to the conflict and has consistently spoken out against economic restrictions. “We are deeply concerned with the ever-increasing unilateral sanctions, which are not a fundamental and effective way to solve the problem,” Zhang Jun, China’s envoy to the UN, said on Monday. “They will have serious humanitarian consequences and spillover effects that will hurt other countries.”

Speaking to reporters the same day, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi called Moscow his country’s “most important strategic partner.” The friendship between the two is “ironclad,” he said.

Many countries, including the US, UK, and EU member states, imposed sweeping sanctions on Russia in response to its military campaign launched against Ukraine on February 24. Russia insisted that it was defending the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, which broke away from Ukraine shortly after the 2014 coup in Kiev. Russia also said it wants Ukraine to become a neutral country that will never join NATO.

Kiev said the attack was entirely unjustified and denied claims that it was planning to retake the breakaway republics by force.

Changing the constitution to make Ukraine neutral is the most basic part of the deal,along with Crimea recognized as Russian land.

Just the beginning of the xenophobia against ordinary Russians. Many Muslims will know what it feels like:

Moskal is a pejorative term for Russians.
