Okay Brzezinski. Russia hardly faces a determined opposition: it faces a dwindling supply of forced conscripts.

Well you got nothing to worry about then. Kyiv by winter?

[–] davel@lemmy.ml -1 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I don’t think they even want Kyiv. Western Ukraine is rife of neo-Nazis, making it impossible to occupy long-term.

The difference, geographically, between “liberating” and “occupying” can be found in the the decade-long civil war after the US-backed 2014 coup and the Minsk Accords. Kit Klarenberg: Civil War in Donbass 10 Years On
