I greatly appreciate you both
Putin lover and rather cruel propagandist Geroman, with a Russian battle map. The guy is cruel and obnoxious but often have good maps and the like.
More on the matter of Chinese aid:
If it is proven that China is assisting Russia, a tragic situation becomes much more grave.
China has a chance to come out of this with boosted relations with the west, if it brokers a peace deal. I don’t think anyone else can do it.
If China plans to take back Taiwan by force when it is ready, it may conclude that facing sanctions now (re-organising their economy to protect against future sanctions as well) is advantageous instead of facing worse sanctions in a year or two (when it is militarily ready). Maybe it concludes that it is more prudent to phase in such sanctions.
I am just speculating.
Kharkiv:
Pro War criminal and cruel bastard, Zoka, claims (that’s what loading means) that Mariupol is about to fall now tonight.
Salt on the death count, but it must surely be catastrophically high by now, judging from the intense urban warfare and the complete and utter disregards that the invading Russians have for civilians (Chechen butchers in the storm teams as well)
This is hell on earth
