re: Latest Updates: Russia-Ukraine Conflict

It's highly probable that Ukraine won't reclaim all its territory, but there is a non zero chance.

When people talk about this topic, I never really know what they mean.

Ukraine is absolutely not going to retake the part of the Donbas that Russia took in 2014. It would have been very difficult in 2021, but it's really impossible now. The cities of Luhansk and Donetsk have become thoroughly Russified. And there are now many thousands of people there who have lost loved ones in the conflict, as the DPR and LPR forces lost massive numbers early in the conflict, and those people hate Ukraine with a passion.

Let's be clear: Ukraine doesn't want them back, even though Zelensky might not say that directly.

I also don't know if Ukraine would push very hard to get Mariupol back, as it's a destroyed mess that will never resemble the Ukrainian city it was.

But Ukraine won't stop fighting until it gets back the rest of the territory that they lost in 2022. I don't think that there's a deal that could happen in the next three years that involves Ukraine ceding Melitopol and Berdyansk to Russia.

And Crimea.is the key question.

FDR and Winston Churchill didn’t cancel their elections during World War fricking II, so no that doesn’t stand up to scrutiny.

FDR did not have 100+K enemy troops on the mainland and the British election during WWII occurred July 1945, months after VE Day.

Germany owned all the air separation plants and ammonia plants in the USA then WWII came along. How much were they paid for these and the technology to build others which were ALL necessary for the war effort against them?

How much of their nations' land was under Axis control for those elections? Do you think Zelensky should ask Putin to set up polling places in Mariupol and Bakhmut? Would you just ignore the millions of Ukrainian refugees in Poland, Romania, etc.?

Oh, and how many billion of US taxpayer dollars do you want to devote to helping Ukraine conduct elections? Because they need the money they have to try to kick Russia out

EDIT: Russia 24 posted about his show, but Tucker says that he hasn't done it. Let's file this under Russian disinfo.

The legislation upheld Ukraine's constitution. You might want to look up the LACK of elections during II regarding Churchill
