This video you should watch completely. It will be hard as it is long, but it is the most revealing video I have seen till now.
This is the only thing Putin understands: shoot them if they enter territorial waters. Turkey did it before with a Russian plane entered Turkey in the war with Syria. And Putin was silent.
These are Putin voters. No wonder they believe anything Putin says. This also explains why Putin ordered to keep the price of wodka low. https://t.me/nexta_live/30866?comment=5420137
"He dismisses those, including Henry Kissinger, who want to make concessions to Putin. “With all respect to Henry Kissinger, he has a notion of Putin as some kind of projection of Leonid Brezhnev . . . [But] Brezhnev was no gangster. Second, Brezhnev fought [in the second world war]. He, and people around him, realised that war is the worst thing. Putin has never fought. He has no understanding of what wars are like. He understands computer games and wars on his laptop."

https://edition.cnn.com/europe/live...s-06-16-22/h_dd604107aff0c1154f78081ce32f2702 6:04 a.m. ET, June 16, 2022 Russian military had expected to take control of Kyiv within 12 hours of invasion, says Ukrainian defense minister From CNN's Matthew Chance, AnneClaire Stapleton, and Katharina Krebs in Brussels The Russian military expected Kyiv to fall within 12 hours of the February 24 invasion, Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov told CNN's Matthew Chance in an exclusive interview in Brussels. A document was found on a Russian military officer who was killed in the invasion, which stated the Russian military objectives, Reznikov said. "They thought they were going to be in the center of Kyiv in 12 hours," he said the document stated. Russians naively anticipated that within 72 hours of their invasion, the Ukrainian government would flee the capital, Reznikov said. "Frankly speaking, our partners in the different capitals of the world also were naive. They told us that invasion was imminent, and you will fall. You only have 72 hours. That's why they didn't give us heavy weaponry." Only after Ukraine liberated the Kyiv region in late March, did Western partners start to provide Ukraine with heavier weapons, he said.
June 20 (UPI) -- Russian forces are prepared to launch a large-scale offensive in Ukraine, Ukrainian officials warned Monday. Oleksiy Arestovych, adviser to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, warned that Russia had amassed missiles in the Black Sea in preparation for a launch. "All six carriers of Russian cruise missiles lined up in the Black Sea and are most likely preparing for a massive launch of missiles," Arestovych warned on social media. Zelensky had cautioned in his nightly address Sunday that Russia was likely preparing an offensive this week as the European Union is set to debate whether to make Ukraine an official candidate to join the bloc. https://www.upi.com/Top_News/World-...donetsk-suburb-capture-Kharkiv/6931655722874/
