🇷🇺🇺🇦 Discussion: Relations with Russia and the war in Ukraine

[squeekness]

Im glad, but its making me nervous too. A desperate Putin, especially if he thinks his head is on the chopping block, could decide to just bomb the hell out of Ukraine out of pure spite.

Nothing that monster does can surprise me.

Apparently, Putin's Ferris wheel that he opened earlier today has already broken down:

Just hope they can recover as soon as possible.

Just hope they can recover as soon as possible.

Even in war what kind of ******* steals forks and shoes from victims. Really hope they can get back on their feet soon and start getting their lives back.

It's going to take a long time, there's so much rebuilding and yeah, just even getting the basics will be difficult.

Related to that, the Russian puppet head of the Donetsk seperatists resigned, so I think he knows what is coming.

Yeah I saw the alleged document (this guy) and his alleged fleeing (to somewhere) vlog but we’ll see if it’s real and verified later.

“Ukrainian forces have penetrated Russian lines to a depth of up to 70 kilometers in some places,” reported the Institute for the Study of War, which closely tracks the conflict. They have captured more territory in the past five days “than Russian forces have captured in all their operations since April”

 

[squeekness]

Did he go flying out of a window, too?

 

[InCali]

Seems likely to me that he ran across some folks who may not have appreciated him.....and I don't mean anyone who supports Russia.

 

[Sithborg]

I mean, yeah, traditionally, collaborators tend to have a bad time when liberation comes.

 

[MagnarTheGreat]

 

[MagnarTheGreat]

And here he was just crowing about 2000 sq. km just the other day... Things are moving quickly.

From the beginning of September until today, our warriors have already liberated more than 6,000 square kilometers of the territory of Ukraine - in the east and south. The movement of our troops continues.

Oh man.......this doesn't look good for the long term prospects for Putin's administration. If they continue to just flat out get pushed out, the S*** is gonna hit the fan. The potential problem is that there are even crazier people than Putin.

I'd like to think there couldn't be anyone worse....but yeah. Makes yourself feel bad for the regular people who deserve better leadership.

I couldn't be happier for Ukraine right now.
