It does appear that way. Kind of sad that Donald had to jump in and try to take credit.


I actually wouldn't rule out that Trump played a big part and can take a fair bit of credit. Ukraine's whole military platform now rides on Starlink and US intel. They turn it off, and Ukraine falls a lot sooner. Ze is on thin ice as it is with Don, so I think Trump has immense leverage over him.

Point being, that Trump is trying to take credit, again, for something he did not do


But he did request it and they obliged retard. Just because he’s just now announcing it doesn’t mean he didn’t request it days or weeks ago fricking moron.

It's a sensitive subject lol

quote:

Initial Reactions: "Liberators" vs. Resistance

Western Ukraine: Many in the western regions (Galicia) initially welcomed German troopsthey hoped the Nazis would support an independent Ukrainian state.

Central and Eastern Ukraine: Support was far lower in these areas. Most residents maintained a "wait-and-see" attitude or were actively hostile to the invaders, remembering previous negative experiences with German rule in 1918.

Nazi Collaboration: Groups like the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) collaborated early on, believing Hitler would restore their sovereignty. This hope was crushed within days when the Nazis arrested nationalist leaders like Stepan Bandera for declaring independence.

It’s a holiday in both countries. Ukraine had 8 to 10 million people die in WWII. More than quarter of the Soviet deaths were from the Ukraine. After the Russian invasion they moved the date from May 9th to May 8th.

Both countries wanted the ceasefire

Kinda doubt it. Most self-identifying Ukrainians treat WW2 monuments like leftists treat Civil War monuments.

They may have lost 8-10 million combined with civilians due to large portion of Eastern battles taking place in Ukraine, but only a fraction of that died fighting in the war.

AI check

quote:

Approximately 2.5 to 3.4 million Ukrainians fighting in the Red Army (Soviet Armed Forces) were killed or died in captivity during World War II. In total, including both military personnel and civilians, Ukraine lost between 8 and 10 million people during the war

Is this the same ceasefire Putin already announced three or four days ago?


Appears to be. What is your point?

Good, but if true, we need to begin seriously curtailing the aid we send to Ukraine.

Trump also suggested an end to the war many times. How did that go?

Its not even a war. Just a political stunt to fleece the American people of our tax money.

A typical Russian BOT post.

Go ahead - find me the stolen money here, investigated by Ukraine, the FBI, CIA, DEA, Interpol, etc etc.

Go ahead. Where is the corruption?

Half this board believes the western media that says Russia has over one million casualties.

Ukraine ain’t winning, either.
