    Someone should submit a resolution to the UN security council ordering both Russia and Ukraine to go back to the 2013 borders. And then Russia can do what it wants with their vote and veto.

      I’m not exactly sure what happened between 1991 and 2013 around there, but I’d argue that they should have the original indepencence borders and that’s it. But it’s not my call by any stretch, Ukraine and their people are the ones who should settle where the border is.

      And the global west should support their cause. Sure, it’s not particulary easy for anyone right now, but for the majority of the people in EU supporting Ukraine is financially mostly a inconvenience. You might pay a slightly bit more on your bread and butter, but currently no one is coming for you with guns, which is very much a reality in Ukraine right now.

        Exactly, the EU especially is rich enough to pour ten times more into Ukraine without we even noticing it.

    Y’know Dmitry, if you had kept your army inside your own borders we wouldn’t be having this conversation right now.

    Russia has total control over the situation and could end the Kursk assault overnight if they really wanted to. This is entirely their problem that they’ve created.

    “I would be grateful for the explanation how intentionally targeting civilians serves the goal of disrupting attacks on Ukrainian territory, given the fact that there were no military objects or infrastructure in the area,” he said.

    So the T-80s and T-90 that Ukraine has captured so far are use for delivering pizza? Also, if you give Ukraine a bit more time to get deeper into Russia they’ll get to the part of Russia where much more of the military objects and infrastructure are.

      Turns out that basically every military objective on earth is, at some point, surrounded by lots and lots of civilian area.

    Oh the irony…

    “I would be grateful for the explanation how intentionally targeting civilians serves the goal of disrupting attacks on Ukrainian territory, given the fact that there were no military objects or infrastructure in the area,” he [Dmitry Polyanskiy, Russia’s Deputy U.N. Ambassador] said.

    Holy crap! Tell me that you’ve been sleeping under a rock for the last 3 years without saying that you’ve been sleeping under a rock for the last 3 years…

    There is no hope communicating with these insane barbarians. Empathy, truth. shame and hypocrisy don’t even exist. The entire society is based on brutality and brazen lies, you cannot trust anything they say. The only choice for a lasting peace for Ukraine is to keep fighting until the entire vile project of political russia collapses into something less malignant.

        The USSR had a shred of philosophical veneer. The kleptocratic petromafia slave “state “ that exists today is literally a nihilist barbarian horde. I like the sentiment and mental picture of your suggestions. Really speaks to the pointlessness of talking to these black hearted ghouls.

          The russia as it is today should be denuclearized and maybe split up in several groups or they will just start over again in ten or fifty years.

    Most have not been silent. They mostly said that Ukraine is allowed to use Western made weapons in Russia including Kursk. Idk what the Russians are talking about.

    Why would the “glorious empire” need help from those lowly western countries.

    I’m sorry, Pooty, i can’t make out what you’re saying. Try to stop blubbering. Take a deep breath. Wipe your nose off. Here, take a sip from your SpongeBob sippy cup.

    Ok, feel better? Now, without whining this time. What do you want?
