President Zelensky said Russia has placed relay transmitters for Shahed drones in Belarus and is using them for strikes on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure. He said Ukrainian forces have already destroyed several of these relays. Zelensky added that Belarus controls its territory and should understand the risks of complicity.

Regardless of your opinion of Zelensky and how he milked Biden and Europe of billions. You have to give the man credit. That took a lot of balls.

Everyone lets put aside our differences and wish Putin a happy 4 year anniversary for his 3 day Special Military Operation.

No, it was a logical assumption that we’d see a Russian version of shock and awe.
Russia's plan was good on paper. However, after looking at the actual forces poised to attack and those to defend, it was pretty even. The advantage of defense was on Ukraine's side too, so I didn't see Russia having a cake walk.
Russia did have a great deal more to draw upon in stockpiles over time, but Eastern Europe gave Ukraine much of its old Soviet era equipment with quite a bit of it having been upgraded to some degree.
And now Putin's 3 days has become 4 years. It's a blunder of historical magnitude for Russia.

If tweet fails to load, click here. Oh snap. Ukraine trying to obtain nukes is unlikely but not out of the realm of possibility either. Especially now that they have the flamingo cruise missile in production in Ukraine and supposedly have a ballistic missile in production in Ukraine that can reach Moscow and St Petersburg. If it is true that Ukraine is trying to get nukes that changes the calculus for supporting them. If Russia is trying to set Ukraine up like they did with the biolabs then that could mean that Putin has realized he is not going to win this war conventionally. Hopefully this is just reporting rumors that are not true.

Ukraine gives up their nukes to gain assurances from Russia, the US and others, that their sovereignty would be respected.
Russia reneges on the deal.
It’s obvious to me what Ukraine should do.

In an ideal world, yes it would be obvious. However, we do not live in an ideal world. If Russian really does believe that Ukraine is attempting to get nukes then it will likely use them against Ukraine first.
Plus Ukraine is currently a signatory nation on the nuclear nonproliferation treat as a nonnuclear nation. If they were trying to get or build nukes then that opens them up to sanctions and other measures. It would also kill Ukraine's support amongst European nations and the USA which is probably Russia's goal with this rumor if they are actually pushing the rumor and it is not just internet gossip.

There actions would certainly have consequences, but it’s their decision.
The agreements they signed were based on certain assurances and those assurances no longer exist in fact they were invaded.

Poland will probably go nuclear within the decade... Finland and Sweden possibly (though their populations wll fight against it...)... the Baltic states would do it in a second if they could.

apparently a six-month old revelation not enough people noticed?
MSN: Putin on the code: DoD reportedly relies on utility written by Russia-based Yandex dev
US cybersecurity firm Hunted Labs reported the revelations on Wednesday. The utility in question is fast-glob, which is used to find files and folders that match specific patterns. Its maintainer goes by the handle "mrmlnc", and the Github profile associated with that handle identifies its owner as a Yandex developer named Denis Malinochkin living in a suburb of Moscow. A web site associated with that handle also identifies its owner as the same person, as Hunted Labs pointed out.
I guess it's not as important as TikTok?

A war foretold:how the CIA and MI6 got hold of Putin’s Ukraine plans and why nobody believed them
This article incorrectly states that Zelensky did not believe the reports... I've seen lots of reporting that says exactly the opposite, but he had to downplay and dismiss it in public to stop a panic, and if a panic had happened then Putin would've achieved many of his goals simply by invading deserted areas. The Ukes had intelligence (from the West, but also from Ukrainian women honeypotting idiotic young Russian soldiers on dating and hookup apps) that told them that the invasion was disorganized, undersupplied, and that the troops were not even told what was actually happening. They used that to their advantage... they knew the routes, with the path to Kyiv being the most vital to protect... there were also Uke special forces in Belarus and Russia doing sabotage of the invaders in the weeks before... while simple typical Russian military corruption and graft helped them out a lot, too (gas was siphoned out of military vehicles and sold... provisions were stolen and sold, ammo was stolen and sold).
To the discussion we're having about the way the initial invasion played out... Ukraine had the advantage because they were more prepared for it. They had a clearer picture of the reality of the Russian military's condition, which both Putin - himself - and the West did not... and they had been preparing for this invasion since Crimea. Obama publicly offered blankets, but he had the CIA and the Pentagon behind the scenes get to work restructuring the Ukrainian military and intelligence services... which was much smarter and more effective than giving them weapons when they had a corrupt and relatively useless former Soviet military. Still, pure numbers should've given Russia a huge advantage... except thise numbers were stuck in mud somewhere and not enthusiastic about the mission once they figured out what it actually was...

Absolutely!
That's why Trump shattering confidence in NATO and the US Nuclear umbrella is so awful...

You haven't been paying attention. All the talk about the changes we have seen over the last four years just went right over your head. Not surprising.
Take those changes and project them over the next ten or twelve years and it's easy to see they will be nuclear-capable in that time. They already have and are using the required delivery system...
They have to have nukes. No treaty or agreement will change that.

Texag has good, detailed, inside information that Russia is only losing 15-20 soldiers per day. So this must just be Deep State MIC Israeli run corrupt media bias misinformation.
He has the real dope.
