What little consensus remains over Ukraine will be gone by 2025. A new boss in town in Washington and who knows. This could be all over by February. Before a single F-16 ever saw action.
Well, if all I had to work with was defending a country who repeatedly invaded a neighbouring country, and that country has also invaded other neighbouring countries this century, and defends sending Russian conscripts into a meat-grinder in the name of Putin’s neo-Soviet Union, I’d be pretty embarrassed too.

It’s pointless replying to your posts with counter-points, because the counter-points have all been posted before, such as the very high likelihood of Putin using a cease-fire to re-arm and re-populate his military before his third invasion of Ukraine, just get poo-poohed by you…

Your vatnik pro-Russian posts are laughably transparent, even with your crocodile tears over lack of elections and conscription, even though the same thing happened in the U.K. when it was under threat of invasion.

I may well have underestimated Boris’s commitment to “let the bodies pile high” in the earlier waves though. Not convinced we saw any economic benefit though but I see little value in resurrecting the Covid thread to discuss our economic stagnation given the multitude of ways the Conservatives can be blamed for it.

Efforts to keep Trump of the ballot may well succeed, or Biden might see some improved cognitive condition between now and November. But I can only make a judgement based on my perception of events. Other interpretations are available.
More vatnik outpourings - set up a false narrative, then base all posts on that…
