Wow, for once the Good Guys are pulling this up... Commie Cowards Running awayLooks like the Ukrainians terminated the VDV force at Antonov airport.
What was left of them ran away. Putin's plan to quickly take over Kyiv was a major flop.
Scorch Earth is Putin's last resort....!Great they are holding back the surge. But Putin may just get pushed to the point. Screw the infrastructure. Just blown everything up
Yep. They lie about everything.
Agree, that is real risk. So far have avoided indiscriminate bombing of cities and largely avoided critical infrastructure, trying to keep the pretend image of being the good guy forced to fight this "defensive" war due to machinations of the evil West.Great they are holding back the surge. But Putin may just get pushed to the point. Screw the infrastructure. Just blown everything up
My President is Biden, i have no problem acknowledging his inability to manage his office, his severe senility and his abject failure in Afghanistan and now the Ukraine.
Hmm. I think I insert this right here.Let's not forget:
Christ, you're annoying af with this...I can't read Twitter. So what's up with that Twit?
Whatever happens from here on out it appears at least for now this is not going how Russia hoped. Kudos to Ukraine for putting up a stout defense and kudos to Biden for outmaneuvering Putin.
KYIV, Ukraine — Ukraine’s interior ministry announced Thursday that Russian troops had pushed from Belarus, north of Ukraine, into the highly radioactive Chernobyl exclusion zone, touching off a battle that risked damaging the cement-encased nuclear reactor that melted down in 1986.
“National Guard troops responsible for protecting the storage unit for dangerous radioactive waste are putting up fierce resistance,” said Anton Herashchenko, an adviser to the interior minister. Should an artillery shell hit the storage unit, Mr. Herashchenko said, “radioactive dust could cover the territory of Ukraine, Belarus and the countries of the European Union.”
Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, said on Twitter that Russian forces were trying to seize Chernobyl, the site of the worst nuclear accident in history. The site is now inside a protective zone covering about 1,000 square miles, including part of the shortest direct route from Belarus to Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv. “This is a declaration of war against the whole of Europe,” Mr. Zelensky said.
The shortest route to Kyiv from Belarus is through the Chernobyl area, it may not be much more than that. Definitely something to keep an eye on.
Putin isn't a commie; he's a mob boss with an army.Never Trust a Commie...!
Can't you help out a Dude in need?Christ, you're annoying af with this...
Fully aware of that. Do it under the premise of mutual defensive exercises for a potential NATO member. As long as there were enough NATO troops there, it is almost certain Putin would not have done shitUkraine is not member of NATO. There are no treaty obligations.

What they're doing IS special because they're risking their own livelihoods.
I don't know what the status of these 9 reactors is; but as I understand it, once you begin decommissioning a nuclear power plant, there is no rollback. But you're right, extending the service life of the remaining 3 is a no-brainer.
California is facing the same problem as well, as we're apparently rushing to decommission the Diablo Canyon Power Plant:
How come many countries in Europe did not joined NATO when they had the Chance? I mean it's a no-brainer.Fully aware of that. Do it under the premise of mutual defensive exercises for a potential NATO member. As long as there were enough NATO troops there, it is almost certain Putin would not have done shit
This is truly a one man war.
One. Man.
Millions must suffer.
One man.
Holy Crap..! They are putting up such a great fight..US expects Ukraine to fall within 96 hours.
US and Europe won’t cut Russian off from SWIFT yet. Will they when Russia finishes taking over Ukraine. Russia should now be treated like North Korea.
