You had a Ukrainian cousin this whole time? 😮

There probably is truth to what he's saying. Ukraine can probably fight back but not much to counter ballistic missiles and cross border shelling. It sound like Russia want to occupy all of Ukraine, though. We'll see.

If this ends up as blunder for Russia then I will sponsor a Russian refugee. :lol:

Putin wants to win the war fast and not get stuck in a long fight. Hence you got airborne forces trying to seize their objectives. .

Is the objective to occupy all of Ukraine? Or just to debilitate Ukrainian army so Donbas operation can be smooth and quick?

Putin has been saying in his speeches that Ukraine shouldn't exist anymore...
 
I saw it coming following some twitter that have access to intel from aircraft and satellites. It was pretty obvious when you have Russian firepower being stationed everywhere, medical hospitals being setup, blood banks for wounded soldiers, Z symbols on vehicles, etc. Too expensive and too much for exercises.

I wasn't surprised about the recognition of the republics and expected Russia would fight a limited war there. But now, especially after Putin's unhinged speech denying the existence of Ukraine, it sounds like they are looking to completely reabsorb the whole country.
 
Looks like it’s full scale war?

Considering how it looks, should PM Khan cut short the visit and head home? What is the protocol when a neutral party’s leader is visiting a country when war starts between the host and another nation?


Nope, it would not be a full scale of war of invading the whole Ukraine, Russian troops will remain in the current captured areas by the rebels, or the most aggressive move Putin would take IMO is to capture whole Dombas region which is now only 1/3 is in the hands of rebels

Russia's UN envoy said Russian federation has no plans to invade Ukraine. The Ukrainian representative, on the other hand, said that war criminals would burn in hell, while looking into the eyes of his Russian counterpart.

The goal is regime change, Putin just said this before his start of the invasion. He wants the entire demilitarization of Ukraine. Donbass will of course be separated from Ukraine once this assault ends.
