Send a young woman to perform a concert for military officials in an active war within range of proven deadly AF missile systems. Another great move by Vladolf.
Sure manpads are a problem but they are not the reason Russia failed. Remember despite the manpads the Russians did land 200 special forces soldiers, captured the airport and held it for 30 hours but the size of their force and planning was very inadequate.
To take Hostomel airport the Russians first launched a couple dozen missiles at the Kyiv area including a couple at the Hostomel barracks as part of a 140 missile barrage across Ukraine on 24 February 2022, some were shot down but many hit targets, some targets hit were not military targets anyway. They then assumed the damage had been done and did not follow this up with more missiles or an air superiority campaign, they immediately decided to fly 150 kilometres behind enemy lines to take an airport, to do this they used 12 KA attack helicopters and 30 MI transport helicopters, some got shot down by manpads but many reached their target, Ukranians defending Hostomel say they had just 3 Igla manpads on hand, old Soviet manpads, most western weapons were sent to Donbas were Ukraine thought the main Russian push would come from.
During the gulf war the US started with launching over 1000 missiles, followed up with more missiles and bombing sorties to visually confirm enemy defences were neutralised. Once satisfied the US chose the airfield it would capture as a staging base and used over 300 helicopters to take the base and airlift 2000 men, equipment and supplies to prepare the base and from there land more supplies to launch attacks from. They were extremely successful because they did not proceed with trying to stage an airbase until they were sure enemy defences were neutralised through a campaign of missiles and bombing and they were agile enough to not be stuck with a pre determined base but instead could reposition to a different base if it was better suited and when the time came to take a base they did with a force 10 times larger than Russias

I'm pretty sure they put aside like 600B but the west froze half that
I humbly suggest that Putin and Russians in general have not changed in the slightest in the last 100 years:
This is an intelligent analysis of Russia from 1946.
Nothing has changed as the entire Russian system is based on continuing the same lies.
Every damn western politician and russian apologist should read this and take note.

An aspect I think has for the most part been overlooked with Ukraine, though a couple of US politicians have touched on it, as Ukraine's society moved further Westward, the links that still exist between Ukraine and Russia socially would eventually bypass any amount of internal propaganda, etc. in Russia and eventually, naturally, result in the people turning against Putin - something he couldn't survive.
Those pro-Russia make a big deal about NATO expansion, but it is far more the natural expansion of Western values the likes of Putin fear more - something a nuclear bomb can't stave off.
It seems that that was her last performane in this universe. 37miles from front line.

Vladolf was likely hoping for the opposite.
In Ukraine we get American whisky and cigarettes, still better than Russian whisky and cigarettes even if laced with arsenic.
