At this stage I'm not sure what alternative we have. If (when) they take Kyiv, we'll have to deal with the consequences of a Russian puppet state ad infinitum.A dangerous tactic but calling Putin's bluff should be on the cards.
'Retreat from Ukraine or face coordinated military action from the rest of the world. Starting with the defence of Ukraine.'
So it’s looking like Russia will take Kyiv one way or another as sad as it sounds.
can we hope he will stop there or is that just wishful thinking?

Plus sanctions are not going to be lifted even if he does, and even if he packed up and went home. Russia is out in the cold for a good few years IMO.i am going to say no he wont be done there, the guy has been plotting all this for a long long time.
he going out with a bang.

I see Tucker Carlson-skie is still at it. Attempting to spread the lies that the US and Ukraine were developing bio war weapons in Ukraine. It then gets repeated on Russian state channels as propaganda. I wonder why Tucker is doing this? Yeah I get he wants to hurt Biden in any way possible but why even now support Russia? He's mega rich so they can't be bribing him. Do they have some kompromat on him? Has he been promised help if he runs for office at some point? I just don't get it. The man is poison in the US soul.
Of course, wonderful EU law and the old human rights chestnut would say Draconian action is illegal. <snip>
As Africa slowly empties into Europe people will rue the days when nothing as per usual was done in the name of human rights and international law. They should put Putin in charge....

President Putin was sage, as he often is, about this child [Greta] and her backers today. Driven by adults with an agenda, used and probably to be discarded when it suits. The only realistic answers to climate change (should you support the narrative), is extreme population birth control, or extreme western physical enforcement of Draconian control of migrancy from countries with a populace desiring a western lifestyle with no ability, financially or educationally, to enrich their desired destination.
I'd vote for him [Putin] all day long.
EU said Ukraine could deal them only and offered them a deal.
Russia said Ukraine could deal with anyone and offered them a better deal.
Ukraine chooses the Russian deal which is obviously better for them.
Ukrainian leader is overthrown in a coup.
Pro-EU leader is instated.
I'm sorry but the EU is far more of a dictatorship than Russia is, just look at all of the referendums they have ignored and leaders they have replaced (Ukraine, Italy, Greece etc).
Could it be that those countries see the EU as more of a threat to their independence than Russia?
Putin made it clear that delivery of fighter jets would amount to escalation and bo one wants to risk WW3.
Russia’s richest businessman tells Putin: Don’t take us back to 1917.

Russia say 16,000 fighters from middle east want to fight for them out of the goodness of their heart for Russia lol.
