The sanctions, tho getting to the limits, excluding energy payments. If this escalates Putin has to have a reasonable out to save face, or if we go full blast and cut off all oil energy he'll likely take the gloves off and then it's going to get very bad for Ukraine. I don't see Putin going anywhere. I think the only hope as it escalates someone sneaks up very close behind him. I really wonder if this is even possible.

It is high time for the whole world to sit down at the negotiating table. And Europe and the USA and Russia and China. The problem is that everyone wants to fix not themselves, but someone else. Sanctions will not benefit everyone, then Russia will begin to act with sanctions, and this is not only oil and gas, but also nickel. aluminum, wood, rare earth metals, wheat, closure of the Northern Sea Route, no-fly zone. Who will get better from this ? Presidents come and go, but people stay. And if a global conflict does start , there will be no winners . The Perimeter system has not gone away and is working.

I recall a certain person that believed hiding in Pakistan near a Military base was a safe hangout.
That didn't turn out real well for him.

They are that close to the Ukraine in geographical terms I hope they put in a quick exit strategy.

Ukrainian forces say they have repelled an attack on the country's second city Kharkiv after fierce clashes with Russian forces.

Regional governor Oleh Synehubov said the city was now rid of Russian troops - after street-to-street fighting.

Thousands spent the night in basements and shelters, with intense shelling described by one resident as "something like Star Wars above your head".

"The wave of the blast was so strong that my ears popped," another said.

A nine-storey residential tower was hit, emergency services said, killing an elderly woman while about 60 people survived after hiding in the basement.

Russian troops also blew up a natural gas pipeline nearby, according to a Ukrainian state communications agency.

Of course this positive thought could quickly become negative depending on what Russia comes up with in these negotiation.

According to below article it doesn’t leave Ukraine with a whole lot wiggle room to negotiate. However I don’t think things are moving exactley the way Putin first thought they would.


Quote:
Putin voiced the first ultimatum on February 23, when he said that in order for Moscow and Kiev to negotiate peace, Ukraine will need to:

conduct demilitarization,
refuse to join NATO,
hold direct negotiations with the DPR and LPR.

Yes, but why now and not before the invasion? Remember this long table?
In the meantime Putin has put nuclear forces on high alert, escalating tensions.

There is a whole other world out there with resources. And we will see, this is against Putin and his loyal oligarchs, not against Russia per se. As you and someone else long ago said, the dictators come and go, but the people stay.

"Btw" i want to apologize for my rant a few days ago. This was uncalled for, i know we see things differently and this was wrong. I do not take back anything i said about Putin.

Haven't heard or seen a lot from Dan in awhile.
Even the forum seems dead over there.
