  • Do you expect me to move along to your new goalpost, and pretend Ukraine is a real democratic state despite ranking behind 91 other states including Sierra Leone and Myanmar. Index

    While you spout nonsense about democracy, most westerners have declared their utter dissatisfaction.

    A record-low 28% of Americans are satisfied with the way democracy is working in the United States, down from 35% in early 2021 (Source: “American satisfaction with democracy at record low: Gallup”, published January 6, 2024).

    I had imagined only children would be so naive as to think Putin values the lives of the soldiers he sacrifices.

    They may be making territorial gains but that is at a massive cost.



  • A phone call on Friday between German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Russian President Vladimir Putin drew criticism from Zelensky, who accused Scholz of opening a “Pandora’s box” that only works to undermine efforts to isolate Russia’s leader.

    The more western nations have tried to isolate Russia, the stronger its bonds have grown with China, Iran, India, Brazil, North Korea, and numerous other nations.

    Zelensky may well value an end to the war more than the territories he expects to concede. It would be more irrational to try the same thing (if Harris had won) and expect a different outcome to the war.
