This coming from Slovak news re the peace talks

For the War to stop

Putin is demanding Ukraine to de-militarise & wants sovereignty over the Crimean Peninsula.

Zelensky has demanded all Russian military leave Ukraine

Thing is if you're winning a war you dont need to negotiate.

This campaign is really not going well for Russia, the fact it takes about 3 hours to drive from the Belarussian border to Kyiv & the Russians are dumping Tanks due to lack of fuel after literal months and months of planning & moving things into position is Biden levels of Afghan exit, its horrifically bad how inept Russian logistics are.

Russian Military doctrine is blitzkrieg, it involves heavy use of artillery & cyber warfare which is followed by tanks rushing the target, im gonna call it and say, the British government acting fast & giving/selling Ukraine N-LAW anti tank weapons completely transformed this War & has caught the Russian advance by surprise, they dont really have a counter for it.

Fair play to the Tories and our military on this one.

as far as I have picked up from the various reports they haven't done the full tank army bit, the odd pictures of single tanks on fire, most of the stuff seems to be light land rover type vehicles which are very vulnerable. Its almost like they don't want to commit to the full armoured column bit.

They're justified, and they're ancient
And they drive an ice cream van

This is what I mean the N-Laws have completely changed the game, prior to this Ukraine had Anti Tank shells fired from your standard RPG launcher which are fine against softer targets like armoured cars/APC's but they bounce off Main Battle tanks.

I dont doubt Russia will push on & adapt but they are having a much harder time of it than expected.

out you, go son. Foreign males invading the country, eh?

I have seen a couple and did have a chuckle , I am honestly surprised I havent seen more videos of Babushka's hitting Russian soldiers with walking sticks.
The people out here are a different breed to the West, its a little bit wild east, a little Borat, a little of the old ways, some things make absolutely no sense then throw in a lot of heavy drinking, You'll get talking to a stranger and its not long before they pull out a bottle of home made Slivovice or Borovicka and two glasses magically appear out of nowhere, this happened to me last year whilst out picking mushrooms, The people here are so incredibly proud of who they are & of their countries despite mostly being poor as f***, this culture spans right across central/eastern Europe & why I call it home
