Is he supposed to say this?
Pretty sure you’re not ever supposed to say this.
I thought everyone was kinda sorta supposed to imply that it’s the Ukraine doing the “winning,” and also that if the Ukraine stopped fighting, Putin would kill everyone in the country out of pure, unadulterated mean-spiritedness.
RT:
The conflict between Russia and Ukraine can be ended in just several days, EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell claimed to Spanish broadcaster La Sexta on Wednesday, arguing that it all depends on Western military supplies to Kiev.
“I know how to end the war immediately,” Borrell told La Sexta’s El Intermedio show. “Stop providing military aid to Ukraine and Ukraine [will] have to surrender in a few days. That’s it, the war is over,” the EU top diplomat insisted.
Borrell acknowledged that would not be the outcome that the EU and other Western nations wanted. The bloc’s foreign-policy chief claimed that an immediate end to the conflict on such terms would see Ukraine “occupied” and “turned into a puppet country” that is “deprived of its freedoms.”
“Is this how we want the war to end?” he asked rhetorically. Borrell then blamed the continued hostilities on Moscow, saying that Russia has repeatedly insisted it would not stop until all the goals of its military campaign are achieved. He also criticized the peace efforts by China and Brazil, claiming they are detached from reality.
Top Zelensky advisor Mikhail Podolyak complained on Twitter about Borrell’s statements, saying that actually, the only possible way for the war to end is with an unconditional Russian surrender, and of course asserted that Putin’s plan is to murder every civilian in the Ukraine.
These Ukrainians are very ambitious, and very bold in saying things that do not make coherent sense.
When it comes to murdering civilians, you might want to ask the Ukraine why they insist on fighting the war inside of cities, using human shields.
This is actually very much a “war crime,” as retired Greek Air Force Major General Pavlos Christou pointed out this week:
Wars should only be fought between armies in an open space. Ukraine with its military dogma has moved the war into the cities without withdrawing the inhabitants, so there are heavy casualties on both sides. Civilians are being killed. It is a war crime when you bomb and fight and keep the population in the middle of the fighting, when you set up military bases in the city, in the hospitals. This is forbidden by international laws of warfare. The president of Ukraine is committing a crime against the people of Ukraine with thousands of civilian casualties. Yet the international community did not rise up when Ukrainian troops bombed cities for eight years. Did it not know what was going on? No one is talking about those bombings.
It’s all very nonsensical, the entire discussion.
The lies of the media and the Ukraine government really say more about the public’s willingness to believe lies than they do about the liars themselves. There will always be people willing to lie for money, but hopefully, the population is not stupid enough to celebrate them as heroes.
We’ve heard a lot about “Clown World.” Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about Mime World, where everyone is incapable of communication beyond primitive gestures and pretending to be trapped in an invisible box in order to acquire free money.
