Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Sunday that Moscow was "not satisfied" with reported proposals being discussed by President-elect Donald Trump and his transition team to end the war in Ukraine. Recent media reports have said Trump's team proposed the idea of Ukraine pledging not to join ...
“We are certainly not satisfied with the proposals made by representatives of the president-elect’s team to postpone Ukraine’s membership in NATO for 20 years and to deploy a peacekeeping contingent of ‘UK and European forces’ in Ukraine,” Lavrov added.
The money quote. And yeah there's no way Russia accepts Europeans holding the line without things getting much worse. Russia isn't even close to running out of people or war material.
Lol they have tanks for a couple of months left, and the ruble is in free fall, putin can't consript more people and they rely on north corean shells and weapons.
Russia is replacing their tanks at about an 80 percent rate. That's not great but it's not disastrous in the short term. And people are people. The only real problem he has right now is the Ruble. But he's spent decades knowing he needed to harden his economy. So I'm not going to count on his economy blowing up until it actually happens.
