Does anyone seriously think Zelenskyy will still be Ukraine's president three weeks from now. No amount of sanctions will change that.

That is a good point. We know a new president who looks East will soon replace Zelensky. So sanctions will only punish Ukrainians.

This is not a fun movie Odi .. It's hard cruel war



Getting serious, and  while I understand his and Russia's motives and reasons behind those motives, I have to question the sanity and degree of consolidated power of Putin for several reasons



1. He unnecessarily promised the Russian people a quick, virtual no Russian casualties takeover .. with little to no resistance .. setting himself up for scorn if it didn't go that way.

Why did he do that? He didn't need to do that if all is as it appears within Russia and within Putin.

Strong Ukraine resistance and great difficulty dislodging them was a no-brainer. Everyone else knew this would not be a simple walk in the part with victory parties before the end of the day as he had promised his people.



2. The damage to him financially following penalties and condemnation from so many counties will be lasting .. The chances of him being trusted ever again to work with are now zero. The previous staus quo is gone now forever. He will now always been seen and dealt with as the pariah he is.



3, Even if he ultimately takes the country, any gains are minimal and losses in stature with Europe +  are great & irreversible



4. Latest blunder  is that he raised the nuclear operators level to severe ... Why? Nuclear is not a factor in any shape or form. .. a totally bonkers move that will even further coalesce other countries against him .. even to the point of increasing their own facilities against him ... a yet another lose-lose self self-destructive  move



When the smoke clears and however it clears, it will be evident to all that this was not a sane move


Russia has not deployed the entire attack-force from the border.





And they are not using their full firepower.



They are going easy on the Ukrainians.





"quick war" or "walk in the park" does not mean that the war is over in hours and days.



"Virtually no casualties" means that there is gonna be many thousands of casualties against a country like Ukraine.





Ukraine is large and simple troop movement is gonna take days.

That is true. The Russians want to minimize damage to infrastructure and the number of civilian casualties.

Zelenskyy is no defender of freedom. He took power from the oligarchs only to centralise it around himself.

EU countries and Washington will not recogonize the next president of Ukraine, but they do Maduro of Venzuela, or even Xi of China.
