Zelensky says two generals who turned out to be traitors stripped of their rank
=============================================================
That would explain why Kherson, protected by the fucking Dnieper River and with only two bridges close-by, was taken by the Russians while other, less protected cities like Sumy, Chernihiv, or Kharkiv (and, well, Mariupol) are still being held by Ukrainians and (outside Mariupol) they don't seem to be close to falling any time now.
==========================================================
Yeah, the city was basically given away. People were wondering if it was just cowardice and incompetence or outright malice. Seems like we have our answer.
The approaches were supposed to be mined to buy the defenders time - but they weren't. The bridges were supposed to be rigged to be blown up at moment's notice - but they weren't. Only one bridge was blown up, by a man who had to sacrifice himself to pull it off. They couldn't destroy the other one in time. There were basically no armed forces proper defending the city, a lot of leadership outright fled, and the volunteer forces were disorganized, underequipped, and were ordered to stand down at one point. Some disobeyed that order, tried to fight the invasion off and were killed for it.
All the defenders there died in vain - the city's defenses were sabotaged at every single turn.
I guess this is exactly what Putin has expected to happen all across Ukraine. If this was how it went in every city, they really could have taken Kyiv in 3 days.
==========================================================
They gave up an entire goddamn artillery base in the south without a fight.
On the night of the invasion, less than 50% of the Ukranian troops showed up to fight.
For a long time I was thinking "Well, they were just thinking they were going to be steamrolled like in 2014, so they just got out of the way"... but now seeing this, I suppose I'll have to attribute to malice what I previously attributed to incompetence.
Hundreds of thousands dead and displaced in Mariupol, an entire city shelled into rubble, are on the hands of this fuckin' traitor in Kherson.

Daarom is de doodstraf in oorlogstijd bittere noodzaak. Verraders kunnen gigantische schade aanrichten.quote:

Maar niet zo corrupt dat Poetin zoveel generaals om kon kopen dat ze het land in een weekje in konden nemen.quote:

Ja, schijnbaar dacht Poetin dus dat dat wel de situatie was. Teveel gaan geloven dat zijn eigen corrupte omgeving de maat der dingen was.quote:

Precies, dus een Syriër zal veel minder snel terugkeren dan een Oekraïenerquote:

Er bleven er hier meer dan verwacht, is wat een kleine google-search me oplevert, maar echt harde cijfers heb ik nog niet gevonden. En dat gaat over mensen die 20-30 jaar geleden al hier kwamen he. Alles wat er nu nog is, blijft natuurlijk hier. Ik kan me voorstellen dat als je langer dan 5 jaar ergens zit, de meesten niet zomaar weer teruggaan, dan zullen er veel al geworteld zijn in de nieuwe omgeving. Voor eventuele remigratie zou een snelle aanlokkelijke (lees: geen Russische bezetting of afgedwongen verarming van Oekraïne) uitkomst van de oorlog dus het beste zijn

Er is geen stabiel en oorlogsvrij Syrië, en als je op de vlucht bent voor Assad dan keer je niet terug als die er nog steeds zit natuurlijk

Nou is er het geluk dat dit geen burgeroorlog is, aangezien die dingen doorgaans veel langer duren, dus het kan voor de zomer gedaan zijn. Maar dat hoeft natuurlijk niet.
In het overgrote deel van Syrië wordt niet gevochten.quote:

De staat van oorlog als land zorgt voor de onzekerheid, niet of er specifiek in je dorp waar ooit je huis stond wel of niet gevochten wordt.

A Ukrainian woman gave a harrowing account of what is happening at Russian a "filtration camp" for people relocated from eastern Ukraine.
The unnamed woman told The Washington Post that, along with her family, she was taken from the besieged Ukrainian city of Mariupol to what Russian forces described as a "filtration camp" along Russia's border.
She told the Post that she was then photographed and fingerprinted before being told to hand over her phone so the Russians could download her data and record all of her contacts.
The woman told the Post that she faced multiple rounds of interrogations, including by the Russian security service FSB, before being brought to the Russian port city of Taganrog.
She told the Post that she eventually broke away from the group by claiming to Russian soldiers that she had a friend nearby in Russia who could house her and her family.
The Kremlin said on Monday that reports of Ukrainians being forcibly relocated are "lies," according to the Post.
But Ukrainian officials have accused Russia of forcing thousands of citizens from Mariupol — a heavily bombarded southern port city in Ukraine — to remote cities in Russia. Mariupol City Council previously said Ukrainians had phones and documents checked, and were forced into camps by Russian soldiers.
The US Embassy in Kyiv also accused Russia of kidnapping thousands of Ukrainian children from the eastern Donbas region.
Mariupol has been a focal point of the humanitarian aspect of Russia's ongoing war against Ukraine.
The city has been constantly shelled by Russian President Vladimir Putin's forces, and proposed humanitarian convoys and corridors have been difficult to construct.

Ik denk dat mensen die het hebben over dat Oekraïne te corrupt is om bij de EU te kunnen onderschatten wat deze oorlog met dat volk doet. Het zou me niks verbazen als corruptie in Oekraïne met wortel en tak wordt uitgeroeid.
Net zoals na 2014 niet gebeurde?quote:

Elk Oost-Europees land heeft zijn fair share of corruption. Alleen de staat van de legers van Rusland en Oekraine al. Alleen dat grote verschil geeft al aan dat Oekraine veel verder is om de corruptie in te dammen dan bijvoorbeeld een Rusland.quote:

Als het gaat om corruptie kan ik je ook nog wel wat mondkapjes verkopen.quote:

Een ander woord voor corruptie is Limburg.

Net op teletekst app gelezen dat Gazprom aangegeven heeft dat de leveringen gewoon doorgaan.
Ergens mooi
Ergens ook wel jammer, want ik had graag gezien dat stable genius Putin na de zoveelste dolk nu een zwaard in de rug van z'n eigen economie had gestoken.
Maar goed, een optie is natuurlijk dat ze de kraan gewoon dichtdraaien als verassing.
We zullen zien.

Dat is niet zo simpel, dat gas moet ergens blijven tenzij je de gaswinning ook stillegd en dat laatste is zowel gevaarlijk als mogelijk onomkeerbaar door de techniek die ze gebruiken.quote:

In Oekraïne wordt op dit moment veel meer en heviger gevochten dan in Syrië.quote:
[..]
Dat geldt ook voor Oekraïne.
De staat van oorlog als land zorgt voor de onzekerheid, niet of er specifiek in je dorp waar ooit je huis stond wel of niet gevochten wordt.
Overigens snap ik dat oorlog voor onzekerheid zorgt. Maar ons beleid, waarbij vrijwel alle Syriërs hier mogen blijven en ook voorrang op huurhuizen krijgen, is nauwelijks nog aan een normale Nederlander uit te leggen.
De oplossing is dat de Europese landen in euro's betalen aan een Russische bank en die vervolgens het omzet in roebels om de gas te betalen.quote:

Wel slim.
They told me all of my cages were mental, so I got wasted like all my potential.
Omdat er een president gekozen is met een Joodse achtergrond trekt deze twitter gigant de conclusie dat de Oekraïne het zelfs nog veel en veel beter doet dan Polen en vele andere landen.quote:
Oekraïne is het minst anti-semitische land van Oost-Europa.
[ twitter ]
Sterker nog, dan zou Rusland het nog beter doen dan Polen.
Vreemde conclusie.
Nah in dit geval is er toch echt referentie gedaan naar een goede bron.quote:
