After two years of this direct war between Russia and former Ukraine population and European, American weaponry Putin is only sorry he hasn't started earlier...

It's kind of interesting what mostly has been stopping him - Russian money at European and American banks or what he is saying his naivity and believing in honesty of western politicians...

Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians and Russians had got killed already but... Ukraine is still standing... I doubt it will last for long though, one year maybe but the conflict could still go for years if Europe and USA will send more and more people and weapons ti let it go... Intresting what the European economy will be looking like after a decade of such intensive confrontation on all the levels, when all trade lines as at Red sea as in Atlantic could be cut off by some Russian proxi...

Intresting what the European economy will be looking like after a decade of such intensive confrontation on all the levels, when all trade lines as at Red sea as in Atlantic could be cut off by some Russian proxi...As it looks like already now, some proxy that sabotages trade routes won't be needed. Already the relations that have been cut off, in combination with the world market resonances on excluding one major supplier of oil and natural gas and other natural resources (such as wood), and making it necessary to restructure supply chains to other sources of them for the country which practice this exclusion-policy (making the products coming out of them way more expensive 'cause nothing is as cheap as Russian ((illegally cut) wood) - all these things already throw Europe into an economic depression.

Yes, if we look how USA had prepared Ukraine during decades to future war with Russia it had been started with the fake promises to unite Ukraine with EU and to protect it inside Nato, the second was a demand to cut ties with Russia and the third - throwing at last Ukrainians into an economic depression to fuel the radicalisation... It is funny to hear now that the president of France now is telling he is ready to sent French soldiers to fight with Russia at Ukraine... ))) So, yes Europe, time to prepare...

What Macron recently stated - due to it suposedly having been on a bigger pro-Ukraine event, should probably seen as something of the usual pure opportunism. He didn't really think that through to the end, he just threw something into the room which he thought would "aid" or "do Ukraine good".

But, in fact, indirectly, he did a chunk of a service with that.
Because all the other European and NATO countries signaled refusal - or at least no support for that.
In other words, he brought to the surface: NATO is not going to come to "save" Ukraine. NATO and the EU countries aren't willing to enter the big war with Russia.
And that is... more like a kick in the ass of that clown from Kiev. - If that one even notices it at all.
