Iām sure he reported all that was said back to Puty-putā¦ not like Trump couldnāt have done that himselfā¦ Iām sure Zelenskyy is aware tooā¦
Zelenskyy must wake up at night, and be likeā¦ I used to be a comedianā¦ how the fuck did I get here. 
Average daily rate of 1,500 casualties (killed and wounded).
With a far higher ratio of killed to wounded than the modern Western militaries face, due to Russiansā lack of medics and medical equipment, and the army frequently not giving a damn about the survival of the wounded.
If Kim Jong Un thinks theyāre corrupted, will they be allowed to return?
The news on the Today Show this morning noted that there were discussions being had between the UK and EU trying to force through a ruling allowing Ukraine to use the Storm Shadow cruise missile system to strike targets deep within Russia, for fear of how conciliatory Trump will be in Putinās favour when he takes office.
And Iām not sure how I feel about this, because if long-range missile strikes arenāt provocation, what is?
I understand the desire to allow Ukraine to fight back, but escalation is escalation, and is always bad for the people on the ground on all sides, be they military personnel or civilians.
Russia is able to strike anywhere in Ukraine. Ukraine has been pretty reasonable about only striking airfields, naval bases, ammo, fuel, and the occasional bridge. If you go from a couple hundred miles out to a thousand, that pushes all Russian assets, including missile-launching aircraft, far enough from the front lines that it grinds their shitty transport mechanisms nearly to a halt. Itās necessary. Calling it escalation is just FSB concern trolling as far as Iām concerned.
So, your argument is that Ukraine should give up? I guess since weāve done that with the right wing here in America, so itās fine for mass slaughter by the Russians.
Itās a red line, like the last 100 red lines that Putin declared wouldnāt stand.. letās list a few, tanks, jets, ammunition, missiles, and so forth.
Hiimars has been striking inside Russia, Ukraine has invaded parts of Russia, the US and EU have provided training, intel, logistics, and much more.. all of these are provocations.
Why is a Storm shadow something more?
Itās not a strawman when that is the likely outcome of Ukraine backing off its own self-defense. We know what will happen if they let up. They WILL become a vassel state to Russia, and there WILL be mass retaliation on the part of the Russian state. They are killing internal critics at a vast pace at this point. Maybe you missed that part?
Russia is responsible for Russiaās actions, not Ukraine. Them starting a full on invasion led to Ukraine defending itself. 
āopinionā piece
Since the Kremlin denies the call even took place the āgoodā news can be ignored. Basically a capitulation.
Because it is ā more accurate, more range, more destructive. Is it likely to persuade Putin to deploy nuclear weapons? No, although it might persuade him to horizontally escalate by sending advanced weapons to proxies.
Meh, Heās already given ballistic missile info to NK for the troop loans, Iām not sure why everyone is tiptoeing around Putin like he gives a fuck about equivalency, or playing by rules, he wants to do it, heāll do it.
Heās been violating international laws of all sorts, killing civilians and and medical workers, and using hunger as a weapon, but weāre supposed to think heās acting rationally, or wonāt do something just because he wants to in the end?
Heās a bully, if it gives him an advantage heāll do it, and BTW,what exact weapons will he be sharing with his allies, ones heās not used or might need in Ukraine?
Really? The only predictable thing about him is that he is unpredictable.
His bluff has been called multiple times, why is this the big one?
Heās been using Iranian drones for a while, I really donāt see why not using Storm Shadows inside Russia will all of a sudden make him go, āoh, I guess now I wonāt do this thing that nobody in the west wants me to doā. If it gives him an advantage, heāll do it, regardless.
Who is saying this is the big one? None of his red lines have been crossed without overlong consideration and discussion beforehand. MBTs, missile systems, fighters, etc., etc. have not been immediately supplied to Ukraine and always come with restrictions.
Itās just the boy who yelled wolf, except itās our side yelling wolf before they do..
If theyāre already in the talks, the missiles arenāt the triggering factor.
The Houthis have launched repeated drone and missile strikes on ships in the crucial Red Sea shipping channels since November to show support for Palestinians in the Gaza war with Israel.
Sounds like the problem can be solved by not supplying Israel with arms, enforcing sanctions on them, as well as supporting Palestinians. Seems like a win-win to me.
AFAIK the Houthis have only received missiles from Iran not Russia, so far. But that example was just one of weapons that could be supplied to proxies.
What other weapons could be provided? That example is an anti-sea, not particularly useful in Ukraine.
Given their noted supply issues, what can they spare thatās not already in use in Ukraine or not usable because of corruption?
Russia (and Ukraine) have used anti-ship missiles against land targets during the war.
Russia has stockpiles of missiles that, in a war against organised, modern-equipped military forces, are largely obsolete that are still a threat to civilian shipping.
