After tens of thousands have been killed trying to occupy a small village in the Eastern Ukraine called Bakhmut, Zelensky is finally ready to pull out.
Apparently.
RT:
Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky has acknowledged that while the key Donbass town of Artyomovsk, which Ukraine calls Bakhmut, is important to Kiev, it is not worth defending at all costs.
Earlier this month, Zelensky insisted that “nobody is going to surrender Bakhmut. We’ll fight as long as we can.”
However, he gave a different account when asked whether it was worth losing men to maintain control of the strategic settlement during an interview with Italy’s Corriere della Sera newspaper on Sunday.
“For us it’s important to defend it, but not at any price and not until everybody dies. We’ll fight while it remains reasonable,” the Ukrainian leader replied.
Virtually everyone is already dead.
So this decision comes a bit late.
Ukraine committed virtually their entire military to this one town, and they lost.
Trying to hold on to Artyomovsk is crucial because “the Russians want to continue towards [the bigger cities of] Kramatorsk and Slavyansk, to the borders of Donbass and to Dnepr,” he explained.
“We resist and, in the meantime prepare, our next counterattack,” Zelensky said.
Artyomovsk is a major Ukrainian stronghold and logistics hub in the People’s Republic of Donetsk (DPR). The key town is now on the brink of being encircled by Russian forces after a battle that lasted for months and had been described by Zelensky himself as “hell” for Kiev’s troops.
Yeah, it’s hell.
It’s just a meat grinder.

Why are all these people dying?
What on earth is the point of this lunacy?
What do the people involved think?
Why do Ukrainians care this much about joining NATO?
I can understand fighting for your country, but fighting for a globalist military alliance obsessed with forcing everyone on earth to have gay sex?
Just why?
At least a lot of Westerners are dying in Bakhmat.

With the Ukrainians, I can sort of understand they are dumb peasants with very little information as to what is even going on in the basic sense, but Westerners going there to try to kill Russians because they think they will finally get laid is just unforgivable, and I hope they all die.
