To anyone thinking the Ukraine ever had a chance in hell of "winning"

[Tapeworm]

No seriously two years of war and nobody even knows if we're using the The.

Fine. Are people who live there Ukrainians or The Ukrainians?

Putin wants a negotiated settlement to the war.  He has wanted to negotiate from the start.

This will eventually happen once the U.S. and NATO decide the cost of the war has become too much to continue and/or they have achieved their objective of weakening Russia to no longer be a future threat.

Ukraine will be carved up between NATO and Russia.  Like East and West Germany were.

All this could have been done before the war started.  Instead the Ukes and Russian youth have been genocided to further U.S. aims.

Aside from all the Uke lives that have been wasted, it is a good deal for the U.S. if Russia is permanently weakened by their loss of youth.

Agree.

They had a signed draft for a ceasefire in Istanbul and we sent Boris there to derail it. We wanted Ukraine to fight.

The "correct" way now is without the "the." Some keep saying "the" to piss off someone. I don't know why they keep changing it, probably to signal something to Russia.

More on spelling:

"There is also some debate as to whether using the double “y” is an act of defiance against the Russians by Zelensky.

To understand that, consider how the capital of Ukraine is spelled. “Kyiv” is the transliteration in English of the Ukrainian spelling of the nation’s capital. “Kiev” is based on the Russian spelling of the city’s name.

“Kyiv means that you transliterate into English from the original Ukrainian name of the Ukrainian capital. By doing so you recognize the fact that it is Ukrainian. By not doing so you question the fact that it is a Ukrainian city,” Dr. Yuri Shevchuk, a member of the department of Slavic languages at Columbia University, told The Forward earlier this month."

Ok how come some people call it Ukraine but other people call it The Ukraine?

I thought it had something to do with the word meaning “Frontierland” or something so we put the “the” in front. I could be wrong and I’m too lazy to stop typing and use google.


Also, The Gambia uses the in the name as well. Can’t think of many others.

They left out that she’s fat. I updated it.

Ukraine has as big a chance of "Winning" as Biden has being re-elected.

The way it's going I expect a switcheroo.

"Which Ukraine do you mean? Western Ukraine or Eastern Ruskraine?"

"I mean The Ukraine."

Oh! A dreamer!

Good advices.

Kremlin propaganda. Yeah peace treaty ie let us invade and get what we want and you surrender.

[BigRo]

You have that backwards. Its Ukraine that went after civilians. Putin actually tried to minimize civilian casualties.

Can I suck your balls lord putler? He flattened Mariupol with 20k dead. He bombs the fuck out of cities far from the front line every day 

[BigRo]

Ukraine were beaten by day 3, Russia has been fighting NATO or the entire US and NATO special forces and weaponary since day 4, just like all other proxy wars, western special forces stay well behind the front lines, but they are responsible for the precision guided hits, not some Ukrainian grunt, they re just on the front lines to die for a cause that doesn't give two shits about them.

Zelensky and the west mainly US  wants to develop Ukrainian gas that where developed can assist Europe with its dependence on Russia, Obviously this isn't in Russias interest, Ukraine in many Russians eyes owes all its wealth and sovereignty to its previous soviet position, I note that others have mentioned Ukraines previous nuclear weapon position, that was a soviet position therefore Russian position in Russias opinion not Ukrainian, there are two sides to this conflict, dont be blinded by the west or anti west and therefore pro Putin, simply this is a terrible waste of life for the common man who stands to gain nothing whatever the outcome.

 Zelensky and Putin are both the same, just Zelensky bids for his western partners, Putin himself and Russias strategic interest, they are being isolated even after the Soviet Union collapsed and NATO continues to encroach on their border, basically eroding any concessions given to Stalin post world war, where Russias sacrifice was far greater than say the US, there are more than a few old US war  commentators who feel the Second World War should have continued with the US bombing Moscow after Japan, then stopping the Cold War rather than starting it by not doing it.Rember only one country has ever dropped a nuclear type bomb on a civilian population and it wasn't Russia or China.

Sorry for the lack of punctuation before the getbig scholars jump to relevance.

Such nonsense that Ukraine was beaten after three days, wow haha, Russia thought they could take Kyiv in 3 days. They failed. Get it right.

Nonsense that Zelensky claims Ukraine only has 31,000 casualties after 2 years while Russia supposedly had 3,500 dead and 500 tanks destroyed in just 2 days - probably by the "Ghost of Kiev". Ukraine is being used by the West and Zelensky is all too happy to sacrifice his Ukraine's people for that purpose.

Are you questioning The Ukraine's heroic 3,100 casualties?

Yes Zelenskys figures of KIA were much lower. Russia still has the exceeding count. Ukraine are not being used, they fight back of thier own accord and are grateful for Western aid without which the war would be lost.
