    I was wondering. Can the USA sell some of its 400+ nukes to European nations?

    Negotiate with Ukraine what? Ukraine didn’t attack Russia. Russia attacked Ukraine in 2013 and took Crimea away from Ukraine. I see you are in Puerto Rico, should US take away San Juan and then try to negotiate with Puerto Rico how many city Puerto Rico should surrender to US?

    Putin make up his own history and you believe it. USSR was not unprepared for Nazi attack, they were ally. USSR invaded Finland in 1939 and thought their ally Nazi Germany would be ok with it. Apparently Hitler wanted Europe all by himself. You should read up history of “winter war” and also Hitler-Stalin bromance before write all these nonsense.

    None of your “ believe” matter. US didn’t declare anything about war with China in 2 years.

    Only thing in your above post is accurate – “ China sees Russia as a valuable partner to fight the US in hopes of weakening the US militarily.”

    Wars cost money and the longer this war draws out, the worse off the Russian economy will suffer. More Russian Billionares will have to commit suicide to help finance the war.

    Hey, don't forget that that according to Russian national television Ukraine is run by gay NAZIS! They're allowed to be proud.

    Rats don’t back down when they are cornered. That’s what Putin learned when he was just a young boy. He decided he would act like a rat if he was ever cornered.

    Don't you know that history is written by the victors? Why would I want to read their lies?
    Unless you can show me a reliable source, I have difficulties to believe what you, a nobody, is telling me.
    Like sanctions of all sorts? Freezing assets, too? As well as covert operations a.k.a. pipeline sabotage?
    Sure, all that works if kept up until the victims are bloodless. In Russia's case sanctions etc. haven't had the desired effect. Russia proves to be strong, smart and a whole lot more conscientious than the West. Russia's Putin actually cares about the innocent civilian victims. Putin's Russia is vastly different from Stalin's Russia. But oh no! Putin has now joined Hitler in "badness"!!! Only America is great!!! Drunkard Churchill is an honored hero!!
    No, it won't. The US is too bossy! It only works fine as long as the NATO states obey and do as told by Washington. Do you think Europe will take this latest blow from the US with smiles and "thank-you-kisses"? The pipeline blow-up has very seriously hurt the Europeans, including Germany who was kind of the economic engine of Europe. "Thank you, Mr. Biden, after helping you in far away Afghanistan, you just punched us in the stomach!"..... "Aww, Mr. Scholz, we offer you our cheap oil for triple the price! We steal lots of oil every day from Syria!"
    Haha, lol. That's how I imagine the conversation.

    How much longer do you envision NATO will last?

    With China as Russia's new ally do you think Putin can't win?

    It absolutely disgusts me that Biden has the nerve to lecture Putin about civilian casualties.

    He made sure the last shot we fired in our 20 year war killed 10 kids and 0 enemy.

    Only in a dystopian nightmare do people actually listen to what Biden says.

    With the madman Putin's saber rattling and nuclear threats, may as well have Nukes closer to his border to ensure the Russians are stopped in the case they want to go nuclear.

    A war of attrition benefits Russia. The only way it doesn't is if NATO steps in which they probably will eventually but then China will most likely get involved and we know what happens when they do. Korea 1950, Vietnam 60's and 70's. But this time no truce will be sought.

    I don't think so. Being the western coalition is currently on path to be free of energy independence from Russia and is close to completion, Russia will be on the losing end of a long drawn out war.

    Because, how many civilians forced to the front lines as cannon fodder or have fled the nation is Putin willing to lose before the rest of the population finds out and starts to rebel. They will eventually stop listening to a blood thirsty dictator's lies and nonsense. I reckon once Russia loses another 2 to 3 million this year that Putin will be eliminated internally. I doubt he even makes it through til the years end. The longer the war, the farther Russia will fall.

    Well Mort - if the Brits or the French wish nukes to be closer to the border they can move them however, this will do nothing to ensure the Russian's are stopped from going nuclear.... the deterrent of nukes in France is just as much as if those nukes were in Poland.

    The Russians make these sort of dumby websites all over the world to try to fool the low I.Q. into thinking lazy Russian propaganda some how isn't coming from Russia. The problem is they are so bad and lazy most of their stuff is just laughably stupid.

    Like losing at least 130 tanks and armoured personnel carriers in a three-week battle at the town of Vuhledar in southern Ukraine, according to Ukrainian officials. They said the “epic” fight on a plain near Vuhledar produced the biggest tank battle of the war so far and a stinging setback for the Russians, the New York Times reported.

    True or false? One never knows who is lying.
