Yeah, I just don't see any reason why the Russians would want it, especially since the peeps in that are are likely to be much less friendly (even in the post Zenensky period.)  I don't really fully buy the argument of 'de-nazification' which strikes me as mostly a PR-friendly excuse.  The benefits of chasing the Nazis into the West is probably not worth the hassles, costs, and risks, and they would just back-fill when the area is vacated anyway.
I think we will soon see how events will develop in the West of Ukraine, because until the complete liberation of Donbass this is not a paramount issue and there are many interested parties, including Poland, Romania, Hungary and even Moldova. I'm not even sure that the West of Ukraine is now subordinate to Kyiv.

You still do not see it. Putin has been brought into a war that is a trap.
Do you now mean that Russia has become a victim of external manipulation and is not to blame for the invasion of Ukraine? This is something new from you.

Even in the best possible outcome, as war is happening now, Russia is still a looser. The army has demonstrated that is unable to wage modern warfare, even having in front an army that had less resources. He has suffered a number of diplomacy backslashes that are not easy to overcome. He has made Europe consider raising the military spending (seriously, Europe raising military spending... unheard of) to the delight of the US. Who could ever have thought that Germany and Europe would ever consider decoupling from Russian oil and start the process of finding alternative sourcing for gas? What a victory for Putin!

I really hope your guys are not betting your bitcoin on anything like a surrender. US cannot be happier than seeing Putin bleed himself and send the your Russian soldiers to serve as test dummies for their latest toys, the sea crews to test their naval missile and combined arms tactics, Russian pilots to test the Starstreaks, tanks to test the Javelins... Meanwhile, the money that should be flowing to make Russia a better a place and the people who should be making Russia a more populated nation are being sent to die on a war that cannot be "won".
I'm not sure I understand the red thread of these two paragraphs correctly. Do you accuse the United States of unleashing an armed conflict in Ukraine in order to weaken Russia and Europe, or what?

BTW, you do not seem to understand the concept of "unconditional", you may have read that in the official media I guess. Unconditional means "no conditions" - e.g. you do not get to keep any territory, nor army, nor government. It is all at the will of the victor - e.g. Japan after WW II so that you get the picture. I do not think you honestly believe that is going to happen.
I understand what unconditional means. Ukraine has already demonstrated a complete inability or unwillingness to negotiate, so I think a peace treaty between Russia and Ukraine will be concluded not as a result of successful negotiations, but as a result of the complete defeat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Ok, so for now you do not like Jews (Hebrews should I say not to offend anyone?), you do not like the people who killed them either, you do not like Europe ("gayrope"?), the US... Sounds like the picture of a Russian supremacist (basically a Nazi). And you wonder why Ukraine did not want to play with you guys. Anyway, Putin is not challenging the world order, he is trying to be that order. Must be that all the countries (including Turkey!!) are ruled by the Israelis.
I didn't say I didn't like Jews. I said that being a Jew is not a panacea for Nazism, and gave very specific examples of Nazi Jews who are fighting on the side of Ukraine right now (some of them have very eclectic tattoos that combine a swastika and a Star of David).

"very experienced diplomat"
Do you doubt it? Lavrov touched Israel to the quick in passing, causing an (inadequately) violent reaction. Putin apologized for him and clarified the situation, having exhausted this conflict sucked from the finger. Perhaps now Israel will think before continuing to supply weapons and mercenaries to Ukraine, if its historical memory of the Holocaust is so dear to it. Good diplomacy.


My questions is.. do you also feel superior to all Semitic races and cultures?
I don't know how to formulate it. It seems strange to me that some people read and write from right to left, like Arabs and Jews. It also seems strange to me that some people read and write from top to bottom, like Chinese or Japanese. Is this a reason for me to feel superior because I read and write from left to right? I think not, although reading and writing from left to right personally seems to me definitely more familiar and convenient. And biodiversity is definitely important to me - that's why I'm willing to put up with the oddities of people of other nationalities, as long as they don't impose their cultural values ​​on me as the only correct ones.

People are made to think that deescalation in Ukraine is now literally in no ones best interest.

May be not in your or Putin's best interest, but if you had bothered to read what I said... remove the tanks -> deescalation. Tanks invaded Ukraine, Javelins did not invade Russia.

Bravo, right so Russia removing all tanks is the only acceptable "deescalation", must've been really tough to propose such radical thought? Thanks for making my point, currently escalation is in everyone's best interest, so the war must go on.


Quote
“In a dialogue with the United States and its allies, we will insist on working out specific agreements that would exclude any further NATO moves eastward and the deployment of weapons systems that threaten us in close vicinity to Russian territory,” Putin said.
He charged that “the threats are mounting on our western border,” with NATO placing its military infrastructure closer to Russia and offered the West to engage in substantive talks on the issue, adding that Moscow would need not just verbal assurances, but “legal guarantees.”
“We aren't demanding any special conditions for ourselves and realize that any agreements must take interests of Russia and all Euro-Atlantic countries into account,” Putin said. “A calm and stable situation must be ensured for all and is needed for all without exclusion.”
Putin's statement came a day after he sternly warned NATO against deploying its troops and weapons to Ukraine, saying it represented a red line for Russia and would trigger a strong response.

Medieval thinking 100%.

Again, Putin telling the people of other countries what they can and cannot do in the name of his safety. Again, Putin telling all countries that they cannot join NATO because he says so. This is Putin considering himself ruler of the old USSR and the one who can tell Europe what can and cannot do. It is no longer the case and, after this war, he will be lucky if other "territories" do not start revolting in view of the inefficacy of its army.


US pretty much said that Russia is not allowed to have national security interests

On the contrary, Russia has security interests, Ukraine has security interests (even more now), Finland has security interests, Sweden, Lithuania, Letonia,... all have security interests... the question is why Putin's interest are better than anyone else's. Is it because he's got a better army / more power? Now that argument seems to have a few leaks.

...

And we're back to hypocrisy and double standards. Due to their proximity, US can have national security interests in Cuba, totally normal for NATO and Australia to have national interests in Solomon Islands etc... But why should Russia have national interests that spans to the country directly on it's border that speaks the same language and was part of the same country?? Then we go into, all countries are equal but some are more equal than others, and the ones that clear some imaginary level of democracy/freedom are allowed to absorb countries bordering other superpowers with beneficial offers, while others are not. Great policy, guaranteed to result in wars, so here we are.

Coming up next, everyone acts super surprised when China starts "special operations" in Taiwan after US decides to add Taiwan to it's "defense" pact. US will also be willing to supply Taiwan with any and all weapons till the last standing Taiwanese.

Any comment on why you believe the Pope is wrong as well, in seeing how such policies cannot possibly lead to peace?

Lavrov is a very experienced diplomat, he is unlikely to have made a mistake. I think the Kremlin quite deliberately sacrificed a false friendship with Israel for the sake of strengthening real friendship with the Arab world in the Middle East. Israel in the current situation can do little to help Russia, and little can interfere with it - it has enough of its own problems with Palestine.

Oopsie:

Russian President Vladimir Putin apologized for the words of Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.

My guess is that if they just leave Kiev alone, Kiev will align with the Russia/China/BRICS/every-other-sensible-country block naturally since the all the West has to offer is sexual degeneracy and 'sustainable' anti-science economic suicide.  At least once the petro-dollar system completely collapses in a way that nobody can miss.

You say a lot of dumb things.  A lot.  But thinking that if Russia just 'leaves Kiev alone' then they will just naturally align with Russia is just...incredible.

Do not die for Putin

Unlike Ritter, I think it's highly unlikely that Russia has any interest or incentive to put boots on the ground in the West part of Ukraine.  I suspect that by now, given the course of things, they will probably cement a land-bridge on the Black Sea in the South (which will consist of client states rather national integration.)  My guess is that if they just leave Kiev alone, Kiev will align with the Russia/China/BRICS/every-other-sensible-country block naturally since the all the West has to offer is sexual degeneracy and 'sustainable' anti-science economic suicide.  At least once the petro-dollar system completely collapses in a way that nobody can miss
...


Let's put together all your hypothesis, so that we can appreciate the deepness of your thought:

- The West cannot offer billions for reconstruction, a solid diplomacy and a representative system, but just "degeneracy". I see.
- The dollar is going to collapse inevitably - after 90 years of dominance - despite being actually the rouble being downgrade during last 20 yr.
- And the most interesting one: Ukraine is going to forget the murdering of its people and the destruction of their infrastructure and "naturally fall" for Russia and China.

Ok... if all of that happens then you will be right.

As the war is going now, that "land bridge", AKA occupied territory belonging to Ukraine, is certainly anything but something that Putin has any certainty of holding. This war has just started, now is when the long term economic effects, sanctions and support kicks in.

Putin would do much better in finding a way to retreat and negotiate something sensible - not daydreaming crap.

Of course I'm right. People are generally stupid, ignorant and poorly educated, you are no exception.

Yeah, that's how the Nazis think. It's good that your words reflect what you really mean. How about we throw all the stupid, ignorant, and poorly educated people into concentration camps? Would that make you happy?

That's cute. Israel does not only mean Israel, but the resources of Jews across the globe that are backing it - certainly influential.
I understand what you are talking about. When you challenge the current world order, you need to carefully choose your friends and even more carefully your enemies. Judging by the instant backlash from Switzerland after the start of the operation, Putin has pinched the tails of some very powerful Jews, and that's okay. Worse, when these Jews quickly coped with their emotions and began to habitually play neutrality in front of the public. Well, now they have been bombed again after Lavrov's trolling, let them decide whether they are pro or contra. Just don't pretend to be innocent virgins if your country has been living in a state of permanent armed conflict with the Gaza Strip for decades.

Here is a video in which Israeli mercenaries in Hebrew thank the government and people of Israel for their help in the fight against Russians in Ukraine, they also personally thank the rabbi of Kyiv, etc.

...
What for? Isn't Ukraine already confident of its victory with such strong military support from the West? Just burn all the Russian tanks with javelins and wait for the Russians to finally run out of those damn missiles.

Mmm, sounds like a plan... but no. Russia will not run out of tanks - it may eventually run out of young people willing to go into them or able to use them or maybe of ships if they keep sinking "by themselves". The USSR did not break because it ran out of tanks, nor nuclear weapons, nor people - however...

The West has more than enough resources to stall the war and take back, likely, much of the territory occupied. Ukraine has the manpower and the will to be free of Putin. The US strategy is not to win the war, and US does not want to depose Putin - that is far too risky due to the nuclear arsenal -  but to render Russia unable to try this again. That is not going to be achieved by weapons alone, that's sure.

You know who should be ending this war? Europe, Ukraine and Russia. All the loosers.
Ukraine can immediately end this armed conflict at any time by signing an act of unconditional surrender. And she will have enough territories and human resources for a long happy life.

Unlike Ritter..
It's amazing how deep and insightful Ritter's vision of this situation is. Although in my opinion he could handle his emotions better and be less orthodox in his judgments and conclusions, yet we do not live in a black and white world. However, for a full-time pro-Russian propagandist, this is, if not excusable, then quite understandable. However, this does not change the first sentence in this paragraph, Ritter understands Russians almost like Russian. It is a pity that the American system seems to be built in such a way that in it the "former" are rapidly becoming smarter, while the "acting" do not make such an impression. Like you have to retire to be wiser, or maybe retiring just gives you more room to say what you really think, rather than what your job description prescribes.

My opinion is that the independent direct intervention of Poland without the general support of NATO in this conflict is almost inevitable, the question is when and how. The position of Romania is also interesting, which itself has a territorial interest in Ukraine and may support Poland in this endeavor. I think the issue will be cleared up pretty soon, it seems that the fortified positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Donbass are already leaking, and then a large operational space opens up for Russia right up to Lviv.

You still do not see it. Putin has been brought into a war that is a trap.

The army has demonstrated that is unable to wage modern warfare, even having in front an army that had less resources. He has suffered a number of diplomacy backslashes that are not easy to overcome.

My questions is.. do you also feel superior to all Semitic races and cultures?

They are certainly influential in the US and in financial circles - that is where the other war, the one that is not about the "missile" but on how are you going to build that missile without microchips and how do you intend to pay for it, is happening and is going to get much worse. No need to kill all tanks, no need to have Ghost aviation ACEs - yet their are welcome.

I can see also some comments on Wikipedia not being a source. It is a good starting point, but you need to do the hard work: go to the references and see if you can form your opinion or question the article. But nah... much better to use a carpet-cancelling comment and get the sceptic-is-smarter free bonus.

Drifting farther afield just because Ritter is kind of a poster-child for the phenomena, but...

...There seems to be some sort of a weird thing going on with having 'done time' (literally) and being 'released' from some sort of an understanding of silence and free to speak one's mind (but still not give away certain secrets.)  Examples include military officer Ritter, the lobbyist Abramoff, scientist Mikovits,  CIA dude Kiriakou, and some others I cannot think of off the top of my head.

Perhaps it would be a wise decision on your part to start ignoring me after all, because freedom of speech is freedom of speech, but already in many progressive democratic jurisdictions it is forbidden, under pain of criminal prosecution, even just to listen to the voices of Russian propaganda, and perhaps I am just one of them.

Lol clownworld. Did't know there is currently peace in Ukraine to sent "peacekeeping" force. Last i know there was war.
So nowadays if attack is expected you sent the defence far away and let the country exposed?

Soldiers are fighting on the eastern side of Ukraine, and the western side is still under Kyiv's control. My source of information said that Poland would send a force to western Ukraine and defend Russia from there if the Russian attack came that far. I hope you get what I mean. I am not saying this is 100% sure but there are so many things going on so it is hard to differentiate which info is to believe which is not.

If Poland (and others) re-take 'their' (temporarily Ukrainian) territory via 'peacekeepers', it will have been part of script agreed upon well before Russia crossed the Eastern borders several months ago.  The longer they wait, the more packed up the place will be with guys sporting swastika tattoos.

Man who stares at charts (and stars, too...)
Semitic language, Semitic people and Antisemitism are very different things. Just read it up on Wikipedia.
So, to get to the core, you're spreading Nazi reasonings here. It were the fathers of Nazism that defined themselves as Antisemites, and the NSDAP was picking up the ideology. It's the same word-picking that the "masterminds" of the Neonazis use to mislead their followers and prospects, pseudo-scientific brainwashing in essence. The same pseudo scientific "theories" that led Nazi doctors to research if one can distinct "pure" and "unpure" people by measuring peoples heads (Phreonology).
You scumbags will never stop believing and spreading false bullshit, while humanity seems always dumb enough to get you new listeners that turn into followers and sometimes even into leaders. Leaders of scum.

You exposed yourself pretty quickly, i applaud to you in disdain.

...

But what do you know apparently the ghost of Kiev, and the guy who told the Russian ship to fuck itself, before surrendering, are super warriors who are able to hold Russia back! Well that, and little help...


Worry not, Ukraine's battle plan is much more about using the howitzer's sent by France, US, Germany plus a few counter battery radars to blast Putin's army. The Ghost can take the day off. The Caesar units sent by France are classed as the best in the world - even they look like IKEA furniture half-assembled.

Escalation, you mean, as opposed to Putin's de-escalation by sending his troops over the border? By funding and providing military means to his hidden army in the Donbas? Seriously, try to have some sense of reality when playing the blame game.

...

It's from a month back, even with only the "official" numbers that's like what, 10 anti-tank missiles for each Rusisan tank? Now we wait how Russia will reply to such escalations, either folds or doubles down and escalate by mobilizing, and what will NATO do then? The world inches closer to midnight, Ukraine suffering huge losses now and stands to loose exponentially more. Anyone left who still thinks this is not a complete failure for everyone? 8yr preparation of Ukrainian army tells me that this was not a surprise for anyone, was just a matter of time

The Javelins, NLAWS and other handheld weapons are very visual and catchy. They have and are helping Ukraine slow the Russian progress. However, the killing has been done by artillery mostly.

A usual, there is one winner to this war (perhaps two). 8 years of preparation and a great success for them. Not a surprise.

... Russia declares full war and gets Ukraine, US becomes a saver of Europe once again, China enjoys stability and quietly pushes its agenda in the temporary vacuum. A shame really    

There you go, you just found the winners of Putin's war.

...

Except that is the same thing said politely, while behind the scene bribing Zelensky to insist on joining,
despite knowing that means war

Of course, you can have a government, vote, have an economy and try to be free. But only if you do not anger Putin. This sounds like the guy that batters a girl and says that it is her fault for not wanting to have sex.

I'm afraid real tests for dedication to NATO are yet to come

You are getting a taste of the first one, and Ukraine is not even in NATO.

.... Israel in the current situation can do little to help Russia, and little can interfere with it - it has enough of its own problems with Palestine.

That's cute. Israel does not only mean Israel, but the resources of Jews across the globe that are backing it - certainly influential.

...
What for? Isn't Ukraine already confident of its victory with such strong military support from the West? Just burn all the Russian tanks with javelins and wait for the Russians to finally run out of those damn missiles.

Mmm, sounds like a plan... but no. Russia will not run out of tanks - it may eventually run out of young people willing to go into them or able to use them or maybe of ships if they keep sinking "by themselves". The USSR did not break because it ran out of tanks, nor nuclear weapons, nor people - however...

The West has more than enough resources to stall the war and take back, likely, much of the territory occupied. Ukraine has the manpower and the will to be free of Putin. The US strategy is not to win the war, and US does not want to depose Putin - that is far too risky due to the nuclear arsenal -  but to render Russia unable to try this again. That is not going to be achieved by weapons alone, that's sure.

You know who should be ending this war? Europe, Ukraine and Russia. All the loosers.

🇺🇦 Glory to Ukraine!
Point being, Russia is bad, so now any and all escalations are justified. People are made to think that deescalation in Ukraine is now literally in no ones best interest.

Russia may have their reasons for this war, but it can never have a justifiable cause. One of the most powerful military force in the world cannot lead a war against weaker countries and expect to be embraced as a champion of peace.

Russia has wrongfully tried to present the Ukrainian crisis as an internal matter. Russia is supporting a war to legitimize its geopolitical ambitions on the eastern flank of Europe. The official policy of Russia is brutal and aggressive. This war, of course, will cost Russia much more than it will give, and a many Russians are quietly afraid that this war might end badly for their country.

Semitic language, Semitic people and Antisemitism are very different things. Just read it up on Wikipedia.
So, to get to the core, you're spreading Nazi reasonings here. It were the fathers of Nazism that defined themselves as Antisemites, and the NSDAP was picking up the ideology. It's the same word-picking that the "masterminds" of the Neonazis use to mislead their followers and prospects, pseudo-scientific brainwashing in essence. The same pseudo scientific "theories" that led Nazi doctors to research if one can distinct "pure" and "unpure" people by measuring peoples heads (Phreonology).
You scumbags will never stop believing and spreading false bullshit, while humanity seems always dumb enough to get you new listeners that turn into followers and sometimes even into leaders. Leaders of scum.

You exposed yourself pretty quickly, i applaud to you in disdain.

Your arrogant snobbery looks funny. Impress naive girls with speculative links to Wikipedia, which anyone can edit, for a man with a beard, this is an unreliable source. Accordingly, all your further reasoning is not worth a damn. I think you had no idea that Arabic and Hebrew belong to the same language group until I told you about it. Therefore, do not wag your ass, your argument is weak.

Seems nobody else is debating your bullshit posts any more.
Then hit the ignore button and don't quote me again.

Freedom of speech, baby. I don't use the Ignore button at all.

Lawrov (or Lavrov, Lawrow... however) is a liar.
HItler had jewish blood?
"I may be wrong..."
The thing is, he constantly is.
Lavrov is not a liar, he is a diplomat and foreign minister of the most influential country in the world at the moment. I’m almost sure that you didn’t even bother to listen to what exactly he said about this (as it turned out earlier, almost no one here has read the text of the Minsk agreements and has little idea of ​​what the topic is about). Meanwhile, Lavrov simply noted that being a Jew is not a panacea for Nazism, I don’t understand at all why everyone was overexcited about this. You may be surprised, but the Arabic language (like Hebrew) is part of the Semitic group of languages. And yes - Jews for the most part do not like Arabs, that is, they are anti-Semites.

May be not in your or Putin's best interest, but if you had bothered to read what I said... remove the tanks -> deescalation. Tanks invaded Ukraine, Javelins did not invade Russia.

Lavrov is a very experienced diplomat, he is unlikely to have made a mistake. I think the Kremlin quite deliberately sacrificed a false friendship with Israel for the sake of strengthening real friendship with the Arab world in the Middle East. Israel in the current situation can do little to help Russia, and little can interfere with it - it has enough of its own problems with Palestine.

In order to dump coins one must have coins
So this was back on December 1, 2021 and we all know how that turned out, US pretty much said that Russia is not allowed to have national security interests in any country and NATO will expand anywhere it wishes. Because freedoms and such (except where it's not convenient for US like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Myanmar, Turkey etc...) \

Actually what US said was "No, we will not tell another country that they can never ever join our alliance no matter what."

Semantics only work on internal electorate, so each side can sell the news to their people, however they can phrase it best to them. Reply on international relations level was clear, Putin's concerns were ignored and he's made out into a fool who shouts hollow threats. With the current massive NATO "military exercise" my outlook is even bleaker than before. In fact we might've passed the point of no return for Ukraine. Russia made it clear that their red line was crossed. The failure in diplomacy is when it comes to a point where a war becomes more beneficial than peace to all relevant parties. Russia has people and indicated that its more than willing to sacrifice a lot for Ukraine, in fact Putin's ratings have gone up, and an underestimated enigma of Russians has always been their willingness to come together and unite the worse things got for them. US is totally fine littering non NATO country with weapons, and it can come out of this with another Marshall Plan for Europe to reestablish it's dominance and reset it's financial system. China will be more than willing to send a train full of gold to Russia, to kick this dumpster fire off, EU has no say in this (that's why Macron and Scholz running around like headless chickens). Russia declares full war and gets Ukraine, US becomes a saver of Europe once again, China enjoys stability and quietly pushes its agenda in the temporary vacuum. A shame really    

It's not semantics, Putin literally demanded the no other country be allowed to join an alliance that he wasn't a member of.  Obviously an alliance that was established to defend against the Soviets isn't going to let Russia dictate the rules.

Ironically Putins response has made NATO and Europe more united than ever and to some countries made joining NATO all the more appealing.


Military alliance against Soviet Union is expanding after demise of Soviet Union. Who's the military alliance defending against and what realistic options were left for Russia? Watch unfriendly military alliance absorb every country around you now, or later? It's hard to argue that angle when even the pope himself doesn't agree with you. Regardless, my point being is everyone has a justification for their electorate to consume, and we're at a point where escalations would benefit everyone more than a peaceful solution. Drums of war are getting so loud that even Pope's voice is drowned.

Defence is now "escalation"? Roll Eyes

How about withdrawing those tanks, then Ukraine won't need as many Javelins.
...

Try replacing it with other countries and see how it works, Russia providing defense to Cuba is "escalation"? Or China providing defense to Solomon Island is "escalation"? Or how about if China provided 10:1 defense weapons to Russia would that be escalations? But there's never ending justification for double standards so because reasons...
Point being, Russia is bad, so now any and all escalations are justified. People are made to think that deescalation in Ukraine is now literally in no ones best interest.
