Ukraine told critics of the pace of its three-month-old counteroffensive to "shut up" on Thursday, the sharpest signal yet of Kyiv's frustration at leaks from Western officials who say its forces are advancing too slowly.

    Yeah, Ukraine is really going to retake those two oblasts and Crimea. It will all be worth all the hundreds of thousands of lives thrown into the meatgrinder instead of honoring two ceasefires or negotiating a new ceasefire when that happens.

        Zelenksy tried to surrender. Boris Johnson derailed those talks to keep the war going.

        They’ve literally constantly offered offramps toward de-escalation. Two negotiated ceasefires were broken by ukrainian state backed militias in donbass before the war started.

        But I’ve been told the Russian army is out of missiles and teetering on the brink of collapse again, now you’re saying they’re simultaneously a force capable of posing a realistic threat of invasion to…uh, the entire rest of the planet, apparently? thinkin-lenin
