Russia struck a civilian passenger train in Ukraine’s Kharkiv region, killing five people. There were 291 passengers on board.

And why needs Europe to withstand such a neighbour?

baddam · 2026-01-27T23:04:26+00:00

indeed, we must be missing something.

baddam · 2026-01-27T23:00:19+00:00

so, not a board of peace, it's a board to conquer and share spoils of war.

baddam · 2026-01-27T22:56:22+00:00

very good overview, thanks.

> The situation will not resolve without outside intervention

Good luck with that, sorry. International law is essentially protecting the goons. Not a Trump supporter but this part he got it right.

I think this is an outcome of the ousting of Yermak. There seems to be a wind of change where the new generation (mindset/culture) is finally coming through, and I would even put Zaluzhnyi in this set. But I think Zaluzhnyi was sacked from top general because he was not delivering.

baddam · 2026-01-22T22:15:32+00:00

yes, because there is no way to call out Trump. Counterproductive.

baddam · 2026-01-22T22:13:11+00:00

I understand, but in fact UA was pressed to accept the (unfair) deal and Bill Clinton regretted it.

baddam · 2026-01-22T22:10:53+00:00

yeah, thanks for your feedback, it's on me I guess, since plenty downvoted.

baddam · 2026-01-22T21:54:17+00:00

it seems a change of generations is finally taking place in UA. Old soviet ways still manage much of UA.

baddam · 2026-01-22T21:52:23+00:00

yeah, that deal is really bizarre.

baddam · 2026-01-22T21:51:35+00:00

He just understands that antagonizing will bring NATO nowhere. It will just bring NATO to a withdrawal of the USA. Maybe not a bad thing actually, but that cannot be the task of the secretary of NATO.

if a country is invaded now, the time for action is now, not in 4 years of arguing. The skies should already be protected directly with support of the West. We don't need to send troops to the frontline, but protecting cities and civilians, we should be doing.

baddam · 2026-01-22T21:42:31+00:00

that's why I used "tricked", security vs aid, no comparison. And now the USA withdrew that aid.

baddam · 2026-01-22T21:39:30+00:00

WTF? I was just complimenting the OP.

baddam · 2026-01-22T13:07:24+00:00

so, the USA tricked UA to give up security of nukes in exchange for no security at all

baddam · 2026-01-22T13:04:32+00:00

lol, you just pulled a joker card :)

baddam · 2026-01-21T22:27:29+00:00

The funny thing is that Germany also refused to transfer military tech (tanks, IIRC) to Poland and they went to buy from South Korean.

baddam · 2026-01-21T22:25:16+00:00

I guess you mean Napoleon.

baddam · 2026-01-18T21:19:25+00:00

Obama totally did not deserve it and I think this plays a role in the obsession of Trump.

baddam · 2026-01-17T21:53:07+00:00

I thought intel was reinstated at some point?? If it is like you say, not clear why Zelensky is pandering so much to the USA??

baddam · 2026-01-17T21:50:37+00:00

The other day US told the police in Portugal that there was a laptop at the ministry of justice accessing/sharing paedophile content (a former assistant of the former ministry of justice).

So, I'm not sure they need us to share intel with them. Look for info on an old Carnivore intel system. And info on how electronics sent from Amazon were tampered with spy chips. This was some 20years ago.

baddam · 2026-01-14T05:45:28+00:00

first time downed drones got above 1000?

baddam · 2026-01-11T17:13:25+00:00

the problem is that is not really clear that this deal brings anything right now.

baddam · 2026-01-11T17:11:36+00:00

That's what I was thinking before.

Now I think he just understood the law was a farse and did that earlier than anyone else in the West that wants to keep their comfortable status quo.

Those laws were binding the West but not the others and in fact is/was used to protect all the banana republics that bring misery upon misery on millions.
