Singing kum-ba-yah is NOT what NATO and the Warsaw Pact did after World War II. Senator Graham suggests the current situation in Ukraine is like that of the Cold War, where the Soviet Union was not going to advance. There was a REASON the Soviets weren’t going to advance! Fear of nuclear war! But there’s no such fear this time as Ukraine is not under a “nuclear umbrella.” Russia has not taken Kyiv because Ukrainian conventional forces have held them back.
VP Vance wants Europe to take over the funding of the war to defend Ukraine against Russia.
Putin wants the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts (provinces), Zelenskyy rules out any surrendering of land.
“Ukraine and its European allies are instead pushing for a ceasefire based on the current front line as a first step toward a broader settlement …”
Sounds better than giving up territory, but it’s an open question whether Russia will ever withdraw from its current battle lines.
Russians suggest they wish to re-occupy Alaska.
Hmm, NATO reconnaissance aircraft over the Black Sea in July.
Putin wants to keep communications open with Trump as he tries to conquer Ukraine.
Ukraine and Azerbaijan have linked energy facilities. If Russia keeps bombing them, Azerbaijan may have to take aggressive action.
Ukraine successfully disrupting Russian rail traffic.
Russia strikes bus station.
Film clip of fiber-optic cables stretched across fields. These are to guide drones.
Underground Russian command post eliminated.
