the fall of Pokrovsk and Siversk was the beginning of the end of Ukraine’s defense of Donbas.

That was 6 months ago.

When do you expect the entire Donbas to fall to the Russian army? This year? Next year? 2030?


Whichever way this ends, we are going to have days where weeks worth of events happen and weeks where months worth happen. Things will move extremely quick once we are near a resolution.

International Law.

The sanctions on Russia. The prohibition on selling oil and gas to the West. Those can't be lifted until the terms of what put them there are resolved.

By the way. You claimed to have better casualty information on this war than the Trump administration has. I think it was Secretsry Rubio saying Russia lost 100,000 killed in the first 6 months of last year. And totally casualties running over 30,000 per month.

But you claimed to have better information that Russia was only losing 10 or 15 guys per day.

Can you link us to that? I would love to see the actual data that has convinced you that Russia is winning this thing

If you call one country buying gas from one pipeline through the end of one more year. With 99% reduction in volumes. That will be 100% reduction by the end of this year.

If you call that "Euripe is still buying gas from Russia".... then I don't know whwt to tell you

quote:

The European Union has spent years presenting its energy sanctions against Russia as proof of political resolve. But the figures for March 2026 once again dismantle that narrative: the EU remained the largest buyer of Russian gas, both LNG and pipeline gas, paying Moscow €1.45 billion in a single month.


quote:

Four years after the start of the war, the EU is still buying Russian gas, and Russia is still getting paid. Everything else is rhetoric that fewer and fewer ordinary citizens pay attention to.



Whoops :(

Spain was the largest European importer of Russian liquefied natural gas in March, purchasing €355 million worth, a 124% increase compared with the previous month. All of its regasification terminals increased imports of Russian LNG, and Sagunto even received its first cargo from Russia since August 2024. France imported another €287 million and Belgium €219 million. At the same time, Hungary and Bulgaria continued to receive Russian gas through pipelines.

Under EU legislation, imports of Russian pipeline gas and LNG are permanently banned, with total phase-out deadlines for remaining contracts set for late 2027.

This is what you call winning? Losing your best customer and 1 million men. That's the kind of winning you like?

Still want to see those 10 or 15 guys data

Now that the doors are 86ed, the next attack will either catch the aircraft in the hangers, where an explosion is amplified, or outside. It may be time to evacuate what's left.
