Ukraine was absolutely correct to target Russian infrastrucutre. If this is remotely true, then this is the first time Russia has been figuratively brought to the table.

Guarantees from Putin and especially those backed by the Trump Syndicate are worth less than used toilet paper. But - let’s go ahead and be optimistic. This would be a de-escalation.

And if Russia breaks it - which they will - they understand that means Ukraine will resume attacking theirs. Russia’s air defense is a shambles and Ukraine’s offensive capabilities are increasing.

Funny how this arises just as the FP-9 domestic ballstic missile program is about to come online.

    This “de-escalation” is only till the end of Russian so-called election. Same pattern as before with Moscow parade. If Putin is scared of attacks during some specific period of time - he is calling Trump. Trump is calling Zelensky and Russia get its period of relative calm during that critical time. Fun thing to do for Ukraine in my opinion is to mirror Putin`s tactic - do a provocation - blame Russia in a breaking the agreement and resume attacks exactly during that critical period - the thing that Putin wants to avoid.

        Don’t get me started, mate. You have to deal with reality on reality’s terms - and this disgusting piece of shit remains part of the landscape for a little bit longer.
