I didn't like the Kosovo War diversion I contributed to but I was responding to replies each time. I bother with replies because I'd rather have my comments corrected than potentially misinform with them if I've got things wrong. That Strichener is feigning the concerned onlooker thing. He's in the huff with me due to disagreement in a different thread so jumped in here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure if the profile views show how long someone was visiting as I clicked your in error (a result of the constant movement in the mobile as pages load). I have never purposely viewed any profiles on here. As for downvotes... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite. The military has said their preconditions have been met (weapons, etc), but the actual deals is on hold pending the establishment of a parliament and civilian government to ratify the agreement. Until then, it’s a proposal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Regarding Wagner, there have been recordings leaked of Wagner mercenaries talking of how they carried out orders to murder civilians, children, how they killed PoWs and shot Russian soldiers who refused to advance. In Bakhmut, it seems that the threat of encirclement has receded but Russian forces are pressing through the city. There's a video release, I'll put it below, of Ukrainian forces blowing up a building they've retreated from - the building is genolocated and shows that most of the city itself is now in Russian hands. Girkin did a video today saying that Wagner ran out of men in Bakhmut and are now being reinforced with mobilsed and regular Russian troops, something that's been hinted at for a while. Certainly the Russian VDV (paratroopers) are more active in the fight for Bakhmut. Girkin hates Prigozhin and Wagner though so take it all with a pinch of salt. Putin has visited occupied Kherson, meeting a few placement. Zelensky visited the front line at Avdivka - one of the villages in the YouTube video earlier on this page, where traveller, Youtuber and weird creep bald and bankrupt visited. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
