And so the theatre is emptying, the last act telegraphed the end and nobody really wants to stick around too watch the end of the play. Posted by: Sharp elbow | Mar 2 2025 14:09 utc | 1 DS daily update: Posted by: Anonymous | Mar 2 2025 14:27 utc | 2 I ❤️ RWA! 🥰 Posted by: Mary | Mar 2 2025 14:42 utc | 3 Zelenskied Posted by: Norwegian | Mar 2 2025 14:51 utc | 4 Zelenskied Posted by: Engineer-John | Mar 2 2025 15:04 utc | 6 Its amazing to me that Volo’s advisors would allow him to walk into that buzz saw ! Posted by: tobias cole | Mar 2 2025 15:19 utc | 7 The EU poodles are going to face revolts in their own countries if they think people will accept penury and destitution so these fanatics can continue their undeclared war against Russia for a nation that isn’t even a fucking ally. Cutting welfare and health spending to fund bombs for a foreign nation? How fucking deluded…these leaders are the biggest group of sellout traitors and know-nothings the West has ever produced. Posted by: Doctor Eleven | Mar 2 2025 15:20 utc | 8 After thinking about it for awhile not only should Americans seek reparations from Ukraine, but also from places like Iraq and Afghanistan. We’ve done a lot to put coalitions together to protect and help them too and I don’t think they’ve ever even bothered to thank us for our generosity. We deserve more respect than this.

Posted by: Republicofscotland | Mar 2 2025 15:32 utc | 11 With a bit of luck the Yankees will withdraw – and the world will be a better place for it. Posted by: Republicofscotland | Mar 2 2025 15:34 utc | 12 On the SMO section of Yandex, very little of the updates today or during the week have been about battlefield events. Most of the updates are from statements of politicians in Russia, Ukiestan, Europe and US.

Posted by: Republicofscotland | Mar 2 2025 15:38 utc | 16 Gorokhovsky – trying to put this off as some sort of joke. Posted by: Republicofscotland | Mar 2 2025 15:43 utc | 17 Mr. Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelenskyy (VOZ) to meet King Charles III [Charles Philip Arthur George] — the current monarch of the British Empire — after today’s London Summit at Lancaster House mansion on the Mall in the St. Jame’s district. Remarkably significant to be happening before Mr. Donald John Trump (DJT) supposedly the most powerful person in the world. Posted by: pepe | Mar 2 2025 15:56 utc | 18 Concerning Americans being entitled to reparations for their unwavering benevolence; it is disturbing that many of us feel this way. It remains my opinion the the biggest deficit we Americans run, and there are many of them, the one that will be fatal is the complete and utter lack of humility. We hold it in contempt. Posted by: chunga | Mar 2 2025 15:58 utc | 19 The Zionist, and die-hard Neo-Nazi supporter of (Zelensky – Ukraine) Starmer the English PM – has promised billions in loans to the Neo-Nazi dictator; meanwhile back in Britain, poverty is widespread – people are struggling to heat their homes, and feed their families – yet this monster Starmer – is giving billions in public money to a Neo-Nazi dictatorship.

Posted by: Republicofscotland | Mar 2 2025 16:07 utc | 21 Posted by: Republicofscotland | Mar 2 2025 15:43 utc | 18 Posted by: Urban Fox | Mar 2 2025 16:11 utc | 22 Many of us in UK detest Starmer and detest Zelensky – – – in equal measure Posted by: Engineer-John | Mar 2 2025 16:12 utc | 23 And Trump/Vance should beef up their security.
Z himself issued a direct threat to USA (which Trump instantly cut off), live from the Oval Office, when he kindly observed “You have a nice ocean…” Posted by: Aleph_Null | Mar 2 2025 16:12 utc | 24 Republicofscotland@22…..the English Royals are Nazis….they invented it….. Posted by: sean the leprechaun | Mar 2 2025 16:12 utc | 25 Republicofscotland@18…..that kind of talk might force the Russians to slap his wrist…..

Posted by: Zet | Mar 2 2025 16:26 utc | 27 Posted by: tobias cole | Mar 2 2025 15:19 utc | 7 Posted by: English Outsider | Mar 2 2025 16:29 utc | 28 EU blames Trump, the Rada praises Z’s bravery and they all double down…..yet again. The coming collapse of Kursk means nothing, Zelensky is firmly in charge and nobody will touch him. Posted by: Eighthman | Mar 2 2025 16:37 utc | 29 English Outsider@29…..”lost game”….it’s long game….Canada and the EU will build an international nuclear umbrella to contain the USA…..Freeland leading the brave citizens of Canada over frozen tundra, along with loyal Ukrainian refugees, sorry, squatters freeloading on the Canadian tax payer’s nickles and dimes, will free the world of the red…..err, orange scourge…….. securing all the rare earth minerals of the USA for the English house of Windsor, Charles will make it so… Posted by: sean the leprechaun | Mar 2 2025 16:38 utc | 30 If, and I repeat if, USA really drop assistance to Europe/NATO and, just dreaming, give RF a green light to do wathever they want, it would be interesting to verify the effect of some Russian missiles on some European cities.

Posted by: Republicofscotland | Mar 2 2025 16:51 utc | 38 We’re starting to hear more Britons supporting Zelensky agreeing with Trump on anything Trump proposes—BoJo, Ambassador Mandelson, etc. Posted by: LoveDonbass | Mar 2 2025 16:51 utc | 39 looks like ive made the right decision to get my family out of germany and the eu. Posted by: Justpassinby | Mar 2 2025 16:55 utc | 40 Ukraine Weekly Update, 28th Feb 2025: May be useful to some: https://robcampbell.substack.com/p/ukraine-weekly-update-40a Posted by: The Busker | Mar 2 2025 16:56 utc | 41 unimperator@36…no you are wrong, it wasn’t BS, it was satire, wet sloppy satire for those that would get it, likely too dry for some other’s taste…..but I did write ‘satire’…… Posted by: sean the leprechaun | Mar 2 2025 16:57 utc | 42 Zelensky’s hostility to peace triggers White House meltdown – Aaron Maté @ English royals have a history of cavorting with Nazi’s. Posted by: Featherless | Mar 2 2025 17:00 utc | 44 Latest Nazi-clapper news: Posted by: John Gilberts | Mar 2 2025 17:10 utc | 45 The US and Russia could collapse Europe if it continues to support Zelensky Posted by: unimperator | Mar 2 2025 17:11 utc | 46 Posted by: LoveDonbass | Mar 2 2025 16:51 utc | 40
And just now Ursula:
So I guess they will still pressure the US to get intel/sat data etc. but no boots on the ground and they will sell off everything they have to make that happen. Posted by: Zet | Mar 2 2025 17:12 utc | 47 Meanwhile EU continues dissolving its economy. Audi to close its plant in Brussels. The plant employs 3000 people. Posted by: unimperator | Mar 2 2025 17:13 utc | 48 Russia can still lose if Ukraine is willing to commit suicide – and it looks like they might be. It’s what ‘to the last Ukrainian’ means and they embrace it so far. Posted by: Eighthman | Mar 2 2025 17:15 utc | 49 What is the likelihood Musk will pull the plug on Ukraine/NATO access to Starlink ? Posted by: Featherless | Mar 2 2025 17:17 utc | 50 @ b | Mar 2 2025 16:59 utc | 44 with the Aaron Maté link…thanks Posted by: psychohistorian | Mar 2 2025 17:17 utc | 51 Posted by: Doctor Eleven | Mar 2 2025 15:20 utc | 8 Posted by: Tapio | Mar 2 2025 17:17 utc | 52 In the previous thread I had posted earlier this morning (before this thread was initiated by b):
Reuters knew that they had said the quiet Orwelian part outloud.
This is the next phase we have entered: EU striving for a “coalition of the willing” (Reuters suggests Starmer used that phrase) force to enter Ukraine. Posted by: librul | Mar 2 2025 17:18 utc | 53 Starmer is going through all the clichéd crap at the moment on sky news. Posted by: jpc | Mar 2 2025 17:22 utc | 54 Posted by: librul | Mar 2 2025 17:18 utc | 54 Posted by: Zet | Mar 2 2025 17:25 utc | 55 With the EU and friends backlash against Trump, and « going their own path » it seems they are not so much US vassals as we thought. Maybe that was just maskirovka. Posted by: Featherless | Mar 2 2025 17:25 utc | 56 Posted by: jpc | Mar 2 2025 17:22 utc | 55

Posted by: Ghost of Zanon | Mar 2 2025 17:32 utc | 59 Posted by: Zet | Mar 2 2025 17:27 utc | 58 Posted by: KingCobra | Mar 2 2025 17:35 utc | 60 @ aristodemos 10 Posted by: JessDTruth | Mar 2 2025 17:36 utc | 61 To whomever posted the planes (one circling kalingrad and the other hunting for romanian sasquatches) Posted by: Newbie | Mar 2 2025 17:36 utc | 62 @psychohistorian Posted by: Featherless | Mar 2 2025 17:37 utc | 63 Zelenskied Posted by: g wiltek | Mar 2 2025 17:38 utc | 64 Latest from Starmer:
And:
So, they will simply pull the US out as far as possible, rebrand NATO to some Coalition of the Willing and then keep going… Posted by: Zet | Mar 2 2025 17:41 utc | 65 I think all that European leadership should grab guns and go to the Ukraine front lines to help hold them until reinforcements from EU NATO can be convinced to be the next “down to the last” ones. Posted by: psychohistorian | Mar 2 2025 17:41 utc | 66 @ Republicofscotland 13 Posted by: JessDTruth | Mar 2 2025 17:46 utc | 67 You cannot have a leader without followers. Posted by: CitizenSmith | Mar 2 2025 17:48 utc | 68 And if i heard him correctly, he said frozen Russian assets would be used to facilitate weapons supply. Posted by: Zet | Mar 2 2025 17:52 utc | 69 All well and good until someone from Team Trump says “This a non-NATO mission, you’re on your own guys, we won’t be bailing you out.” Posted by: Jeremy Rhymings-Lang | Mar 2 2025 17:57 utc | 70 If you want to know how thick and disingenuous Western Leaders are; Posted by: CitizenSmith | Mar 2 2025 17:58 utc | 71 A bunch of losers the whole sorry lot of them. Just seen a picture from the meeting in London. Posted by: g wiltek | Mar 2 2025 17:59 utc | 72 the Globalists plan for controlled demolition of Europe becomes clearer and clearer, and the US will be saved for another day. Posted by: Featherless | Mar 2 2025 17:59 utc | 73 “Sir Keir suggested that ‘a coalition of the willing’ would have to guarantee any settlement on the ground, hinting that hopes of the US providing a security backstop have dwindled. ” Posted by: Newbie | Mar 2 2025 18:03 utc | 74 US security backstop: forces who are conveniently pre-positioned to react when the NATO peacekeepers are targeted by a false-flag attack, forcing the US into a direct confrontation with Russia. Posted by: Milites | Mar 2 2025 18:08 utc | 75 Posted by: Featherless | Mar 2 2025 17:59 utc | 74 Posted by: Zet | Mar 2 2025 18:08 utc | 76 RF can win the SMO and get most of their men back… BUT AT WHAT COST?

Posted by: S | Mar 2 2025 18:45 utc | 98 We are heading for a war in Europe. The opportunity to turn the EU into a real nation with support from the masses is to big to miss. Nation building has always been accomplished via war. The plan from the founders of the EU can finally be accomplished, although their main intention was to prevent future wars. A political union on the bodies of millions. All prior initiatives like the creation of a parliament, president, the green new deal, .. have all failed to mobilise the people.
