    Zelensky’s actions only make no sense if one thinks he is doing what’s best for Ukraine and ukrainians and is still intrerested in winning this war. In my opinion it’s been quite obvious that Zelensky’s and the goal of his close circle is to fight this war, not to make peace and ride this war as long as possible. Not to victory, because that seemed unlikely in 2022 and it seems almost impossible now. The goal is to stay in saddle until the collapse comes and then flee with the money and remain Ukraine’s western recognize president in exile for life and keep living large with all the money he has and will have. If peace comes through peace agreement he will be the president that lost Ukraine and has to step down and the radicals who kept him in power will probably kill him as a traitor for betraying Ukraine.

    Zelensky’s goal therefore is not victory, but control. Control over the goverment and especially the military, ideological batalions and intelligence apparatus and such. Those will keep the war going, Russians away from Kiev, people in line and his political opponents silent. Those will help him ride out this war.



  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the incursion could not be a mistake - it was “an obvious expansion of the war by Russia”. Moscow has not commented on the Romanian claims.

    Poland I can believe, as a one time Russian mistake or guidance error, but Romania on the other side of Ukraine, not next to Russia or Belarus. I’m now supposed to believe that these decoy drones are suddenly just flying across Ukraine to Romania?

    It’s fucking Ukraine who is sending these. This is the Russian s-300 missile kills polish farmers of 2022 all over again. Remember when that was totally the case that Russia killed poles and Zelensky said this is a mark of Russian aggression and Nato would need to intervene. Then it was pretty quickly stated S-300 didn’t have the range to fly from Russian AA battery across Ukraine and into Poland and then they discovered that the missile was an model that only Ukraine had anymore. So everybody went hush hush and it was written down as an tragic accident.

    Ukraine is the one who is losing and needs Nato intervention to not lose totally or have to settle for peace that Kiev doesn’t want. Or am I just going to have to believe that out of the blue for 4 year of war Russia suddenly starts pelting neighboring countries with not scout drones, not drones with warheads, but with a decoy drones that have been falling over Ukraine almost nightly air raids for years now, since unless they are shot down as they are supposed to they just fall down on the ground with very little harm to the drone. Why? Russia preparing for an attack, sending a message? It’s Ukraine who is doing this. They want a no fly zone, boots on the ground, and Nato AA in Ukraine, because Kiev are dry regarding AA and will lose the war otherwise if they don’t get Europeans to die for them too.
