Why there is no way? What you described is almost identical to Nazi propaganda—claiming that Poland, as a proxy of Britain and France, planned to attack Germany. Similarly, you argue that Ukraine, as a proxy, was going to invade Russia. And just like Hitler justified his actions with a ‘preemptive strike,’ Putin is doing the same. Similarity 100%

Nightmare in Kursk: Ukrainian Troops Recount Devastating Retreat

He cannot stop anything. His stay in power (as well as his regime’s) depends on a result of this war. -

Let me ask you. It is a night time. You are going home with your hypothetical granddaughter. Then there is a drunk Russian guy suddenly moving in your direction. He is big, he is strong, he is aggressive. What is your action? Will you calculate that you do not have any chances vs him and will run away leaving your g. daughter to deal with him? Reading your posts - this is exactly what you will do. Most of the Ukrainians are different. They are ready to die - if necessary. Not you and not even your orange clown will tell them what is the best way for them to act. -

This is your opinion, but it's important to allow those on the ground to make their own decisions. The claim that Zelensky is somehow solely responsible for the Ukrainian resistance is a piece of Kremlin propaganda, and it's completely false, as always. It is the Ukrainian people who chose to resist. In fact, they successfully prevented total occupation of their country in 2022-2023. That achievement alone makes their efforts incredibly significant -

No. Do you think you have a right to tell Ukrainians that they must stop defending their homeland? Let me assure you that Zelenskiy will not last 1 minute if he decides to surrender. -

Do you think that most of the Ukrainians are at war because Zelenskiy told them so? They fight for their homes, for their families and for their dignity. Who are you to tell them what to do? Enough with stupid Moscow propaganda here. -

What exactly Zelenskiy did to be blamed for this war and its victims? Did not surrender? -
When the Germans reached Moscow in December 1941, the chances of the Red Army stopping them—let alone eventually winning the war—seemed slim. The Soviet Union was on the brink of collapse, suffering massive losses in manpower, equipment, and territory. Yet, against all odds, they managed to turn the tide. By comparison, Ukraine’s situation today, while difficult, is nowhere near as catastrophic as what the Soviets faced in late 1941. With sustained and well-targeted support from the West, the battlefield dynamics could shift significantly—and it may not take as long as some think.

Who in their right mind would attack a nuclear superpower like Russia? After the fall of the USSR (1991), Russia was at its weakest—economically, militarily, and politically. If the U.S. and the West had truly wanted to "destroy" Russia (a central myth of Russian internal propaganda), there could not have been a better time to act. Instead, the West provided humanitarian aid to prevent mass starvation and helped integrate Russia into global institutions like the G8 and the NATO-Russia Council. The idea that NATO expanded in 1997 and 2004 with the goal of eventually attacking Russia is absurd—something only an uneducated Russian audience, bombarded by state propaganda, could believe. And now, in a bizarre twist, this delusion has also found a home among certain far-right circles in the West, particularly among MAGA activists.

I would say that this war played a role in NATO expansion (Finland and Sweden decided to join the alliance).

Putin did express interest in NATO at various points, especially in the early 2000s. There were multiple instances where he inquired about Russia's potential membership or a closer partnership with NATO: Early 2000s Discussions – In 2000, during an interview with the BBC, Putin said Russia could consider joining NATO if its interests were taken into account. Talks with Bill Clinton – Reportedly, Putin asked then-U.S. President Bill Clinton about Russia joining NATO. Clinton seemed open to the idea, but nothing came of it. Closer Cooperation with NATO – In 2001-2002, Russia engaged in deeper cooperation with NATO through the NATO-Russia Council, though it was never an official membership pathway. ------- Strangely enough, Putin was not scared of NATO "expansion" some 20 years ago. And Russia was a much more poor and weak country back then.
