Trenches for the conscripts most likely. Is Putin trying to reenact WW1 or something?
If so, maybe he forgot what happened in 1917...

There is no doubt a high level view between 'elite' members of society for their own gain vs other elite members of society. Previously that would be called imperialism (regardless of how they achieved becoming the leader).

However there will come a crunch point - enemy of my enemy is my friend becomes unstable once they loose a common enemy. That is currently the US/NATO. Therein lies the weakness - the dictators themselves are friends of convenience.

That picture is nothing new - China provides to Iran for oil as part of the Silk Road, it looks at influencing based on economic benefit which includes china taking operational control of the ports and providing investment into countries such as Africa for favour of access/ownership of resources. The same with the US. Russia prefers force with Wagner warring over resources in North Africa against French/EU troops etc.
the dictators themselves are friends of convenience.

Yes, for the current time, but that just makes the argument stronger, wait around and be chipped off, or do something about it.
Get in fast to reduce the negative impact or wait end up with a much larger problem.

I was about to say.. straight line too.. So basically a shooting zone or .. a suicide drone. I think you'll find this is for anti-tank/humvee rather than troops.
Won't be anyone to shoot at after a couple 6-packs of the new air-burst HIMARS land on it. It's also so long the Russians can't cover it all with artillery - which will be taken out by drones or more HIMARS anyway. Ukraine can choose their assault point and dig through it quickly. The war is too fast moving for this to be an effective deterrent today.

The irony, rules out talks with Putin and blames him for blocking peace, surely if that concerned he would be the bigger man and accept talks with Putin or anyone.

He knows full well that Putin isn't going anywhere, but does he really believe the next in line would be any different?
Pease talks would mean Russia would take Donbas, No Ukraine land should be donated to Russia Full stop
