Lots of commentary saying they're not sure why Russia isn't making full use of their air force... but perhaps the Russians are saving their planes in the event that NATO does decide to get involved kinetically?
Western news headline:
"China Quotes Ukrainian Heroes Who Died Defending Snake Island"
Western editorial comment:
"Again, the Chinese have shown that they are incapable of originality and can, at best, copy the West."
If Zelenskky give a single damn about his country and want to see it in one piece, it should stop being a pawn, capitulate and reach an agreement with Putin before is too late.
I understood you correctly.
... to become Putin's pawn?
Mr Su has come up with a crazy theory, when I first heard it I didn't think very much of it, but upon seeing the above news and thinking back on some of the details I'm now wavering. What's the theory? Let me paint the picture for you:
In a few weeks to a month from now, after several bloody sieges Mariupol, Kharkiv and Kyiv are in Russian hands, as well as most of the land in east half of Ukraine. Ukrainian elite formations in the east are destroyed or in the end stages of being destroyed and Russians look like they're about to move west to finish the job and take all of Ukraine.
At this point, French troops (perhaps even the foreign legion) stationed in Poland move forward and cross into western Ukraine, ostensibly under the name of NATO to protect western Ukraine from occupation from Russia. Instead of blowing his top Putin says something like "If it's Macron I'm okay with, we are all Europeans and Europe should be for Europeans" and the two armies meet somewhere in middle of Ukraine and hugs and kisses.
Peace is restored, everyone involved can end this matter without losing face (except you know, Ukraine and to a lesser extent US). France's prestige on the world stage increases tremendously and become undisputed leader of EU. A new multipolar world begins to emerge.
Not convinced? Who's been having and refuse to talk about what was discussed in the call?
Which western country's media has been having where they interview people who unexpectedly shit on Zelensky's government?
Russia is actually outnumbered here. Their deployed forces (150k) are appropriate for a COIN operation against weak opponents but Ukraine is fighting like a total war.
Well, no. He'd be completely independent in the small segment of Ukraine he's allowed to continue ruling. So not Putin's pawn.
So the question is, would NATO invade a Ukraine ruled by a Russia puppet?
