update: Ukraine has broken through a Ruzzian defence line and threatens an encirclement of the Ruzzian troops that were countering the first stage of the Ukrainian advance.

Ruzzia is no firm in the area. There is going to be chaos and it may easily give surprises in favour of Ukraine.

^^^ The interesting thing is that in the Russian dictatorship, the people might overthrow Putin for not acting decisively enough. The people want results. But Putin wants peace to grow his country. So, he is taking his time with Ukraine in the hopes that Zelensky will cave in, and he can start trade with a REAL Ukraine. If only the Russian people can figure this out. Putin is the best deal they ever had... at least since Stalin.

Cool

The people in Ruzzia are sleeping a placid and long dream and the cannot remove anyone from power. However the military could very well be happy to take it from here from the FSB. People as such mean nothing, except perhaps in Moscow and not even everyone there - dictatorships look strong and are usually weak, democracies look weak, but are actually strong.

Everybody wants ukraine minerals the natural resources.
Why the ukraine don't just decide to have those their own or decide wich country Will take it.
Ukraine people fight just because russia usa Europe can't decide between each other who would have ukraine resources.
Make lottery then who would have it and then peace will come.
Media never say this out loud

Its ALWAYS about money, but its also always hidden behind ideology or religion or fancy words
(freedom, democracy, cookies...)

Nope, that is far to simplistic.

Putin has offered 2.5 acres of land in Siberia as homestead land to anyone. Even movie star Steven Seagal has taken advantage of this.

If Putin wanted to take Ukraine easy, all he would have to do is offer 100 acres of Ukrainian land as a homestead... and then give any takers guns.

Cool
