Putin is just using this as a negotiating ploy. He does not want to occupy Ukraine. It would cost too much to do so. He wants assurances...
There are a lot of people in this thread who think they know what's best for Ukraine, more so than the actual president of Ukraine.
How so, since Biden has already stated publicly that there will be no American boots on the ground if Russia does invade?
There's a large gap between "keeping his [Biden's] mouth shut" and the multiple, daily predictions of imminent invasion. If you can't see the...
Sorry, I'll take the President of Ukraine's position on this matter over a random message board poster. I feel like he is more qualified to make...
Yeah, ok, ra ra Team Biden! Meanwhile, it's the Ukrainian people who suffer by Biden's words: A key element of the West’s strategy has been to...
If I need to link this for you, you're in the wrong thread. I'd advise debating a topic you actually know something about.
At this point, as Americans, what is to be gained by spewing the rhetoric day in and day out? You've told them what they can't do and that there...

Veteran poster can't refute new poster's arguments, so instead infers that said new poster is either Russian GRU, someone from Trump's circle or...
Nope. Likely paranoid that eventually American or NATO troops will show up in Kyiv. Paranoid those parties are using this as a proxy to do just...
Truth be told, the Russians have always been more paranoid than the Americans, since the Cold War days. Which is why I don't like the squandering...
Let's just hope Putin isn't ROTFLHAO after the State Dept makes moves like this and issues statements based on this "new intelligence" that Putin...
Well, of course, Germany has an interest in this too. But the bottom line is you can't please everyone and the sanctions were there to clamp down...
Based on this report, Biden basically just called to repeat what he's been saying for a few weeks now. It's worth noting that Putin wanted to...
How many times is Biden going to say "there will be serious consequences if Russia invades Ukraine" and it gets put out on the wire like he hasn't...
You're right. There is a track record and no doubt, Putin is a thug. This I agree with. So, why then do you lift sanctions on a massive gas...
I just wanted to remind everyone that Kabul will not fall.
