While one side fearmongers, the other searches for peace

China urges ceasefire, peace talks in position paper on anniversary of Ukraine crisis; ‘a blueprint for a constructive solution against US war incitement’

But some here tragically blame the United States, Ukraine, Poland and nato for the aggression of Russia.

[canuck_conservative]

well it only took Russia 6 months to advance 10 miles around Bahkmut,

so at this rate to go the last 500 miles to Poland would only take Russia another 25 years ... while losing 70,000 troops each year ...

“simple 1-month conquest” LOL

Russia should return the parts of Poland to Poland that Russia stole in 1945.

Poland should return the parts of Germany to Germany that Poland stole in 1945.

[mac_truck]

The question remains, where in the future will Poland's border be?

Has Medvedev ever drawn a sober breath? The guy always looks gassed.

Still waiting on that Russian smart phone there Demitry.

I am thinking the Putin-friendly dictator of Belarus, which shares a common border with Poland, wants no part of this idea.

Russia would have to create military dictatorships in Lithuania and Belarus before it even considered attacking Poland.

A Wall Street Journal editorial this week highlighted the absurdity of America's strategy in Ukraine. The Journal urges the U.S. to provide more advanced weapons to Ukraine, including a longer-range missile system, which Biden is reluctant to do. Ukraine, with America's help, must win, argues the Journal, in part to thwart a developing Russia-China-Iran axis of power. The Journal doesn't seem to notice that U.S. and Western support for Ukraine's military has been the impetus for this incipient axis.

In war, telling your enemy you'll push only so hard is a serious handicap. It cedes a critical tactical advantage to the Russians, because you can be sure Putin won't hesitate to escalate, if he thinks he might lose in Ukraine, and compel us to retreat. He can force America's hand by announcing that Western support for Ukraine violates Russia's sovereignty, backing it up with a significant escalation. ###

I suspect that the Russians believe he'd fold like a cheap suit. Biden can hardly afford to meaningfully respond to a major escalation by Russia over Ukraine, given the threat of Russia's nukes and weak support for the war at home.

In short, Putin can call the bluff of Western commitment in Ukraine and force us to back off. So far, he hasn't needed to. But if he feels Ukraine slipping away, he undoubtedly will. At bottom, our support for Ukraine — beyond just costing billions of dollars — will only bolster the growing perception of America as a foolish and feckless superpower.

LOL. He’ll need to borrow another nation’s army to do it...Russia is tapped out and flailing against Ukraine.

Poles: Oh, not this again. **arms and trains population.

Drunk Medvedev opening his mouth again.

[nickfrost1]

Medvedev, who is now deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council===

He is a deputy only to Putin who is a chairman. He is really similar to the US vice president by his authority.
