there was no ukraine invasion the military operation was executed to catch the ukranian regime that violated human rights,

there was an issue like that in georgia where sout ossetians got discriminated,

and there is now an issue, where russians have been discrminated by those that where in charge.
the ukranians invested nothing into the russian speaking regions of ukraine and focused all the investments on ukrainian speaking region, through that they effectively run a genocide.

I think and speak Russian, but that doesn't stop me from feeling like a Ukrainian. A few days ago I already wrote about how these events affected me, and therefore, in order for you to understand my feelings, I marked my approximate location on the map (wikipediamap for February 28 is reliable).

At the moment, the situation is quite complicated, especially considering the fact that there is an active nuclear power plant very close by, which is probably why the residents of the Mykolaiv region are no less alarmed than the residents of Kyiv or Mariupol, (dry law, and a 12-hour curfew).


But despite the complexity of the situation, I am quite optimistic, and I'll explain why:

• Over the past 8 years, the Ukrainian army has felt real support from the state and the world community. The Ukrainian army is very motivated, since we are on our own land, + the salaries of military personnel have been raised four times. As a result, in just 4 days, on a voluntary basis, 100k people with real combat experience were at the disposal of the general headquarters, (there are currently about 400k reservists in ukraine with combat experience).
• We have problems with aviation and navy, but this is compensated by the fact that our ground forces are the equivalent of Russian ground forces (let's be objective, Putin cannot afford to expose his eastern flanks, on the border with China).
• 15 million people are engaged in logistics support for military personnel, this is probably the main reason why Russia never managed to capture almost a single major regional center. I think such cohesion is also connected with the fact that for the first time in the history of Ukraine we have a president who, even before the war, was able to unite both the Ukrainian-speaking population and the Russian-speaking people, (previously, the president has always been a person representing only one of the ethnic groups).

It is sad that those who have no idea what ideas they are fighting for are dying on our land, and these figures clearly show our determination:

• It also affects the fact that, in addition to defensive structures, mobile groups operate in each settlement
• Moving into the depths of Ukraine, the columns of Russian equipment are divided into smaller groups.

Ukrainian losses are not known, but I can say that over the past 24 hours, 115 people have been admitted to the hospitals of my city. Yes, our hospitals are receiving hundreds of wounded, but the most amazing thing is that all the empty freezers that were previously delivered were filled in just a few hours.

- Autocrat
- Fervent Nationalist
- Fascist
- and he considers other ethnicities have no right to exist

Did I miss something?

We know how the Media can sometimes not be trusted and can come under heavy manipulation and influence people's opinions on specific matters, having this at the back of my mind, i can't help but wonder if there is a possibility that Putin has been painted as completely bad to the benefit of others who are in disagreement with him.

-Is Putin's issue with the west and Ukraine a personal issue or really a Matter of National interest?
-Do you think Putin's invasion was unprovoked?

(I want personal opinions and not media generated opinions)

Yesterday the American president made speech and announcing sanctions against Russia for starting a war on Ukraine. He made a statement of sending troops to guide and protect NATO nations around those boundaries incase of attacks by Russia. By the way I researched and see NATO are 30 members and Ukraine is not part of the group.

Now my question is is there the possibility of US to go into this war? Because they have been vocal and showing much solidarity for Ukraine, sending troops around Europe to protect the neighbouring region without deliberation with the NATO member states can be a sign of support. What do you think ?

There are people who did not vote for Putin, are against his politics and were not able to leave Russian, but not suffer from sanctions and etc. Is whole world is going to help them? Maybe collect donations for them? Or help them to leave?Or it is their problem that they were born in Russia? Or we have double standards? Bunch of people cant agree on something, due to that nations now suffer, but call for help is only for one side.

He killed more than 14,000 since 2014.

He is responsible for firing rockets at Ukrainian apartment buildings right now.

Are you in denial?  Just use the search bar on youtube.

He will be arrested and be brought to Hague unless Russians execute him first.

We all speak of how this forum is one big family. A family to the best of my understanding supports one another through thick and thin. I'm concerned about our brothers and sisters in Ukraine who are members of this forum and have been displaced from homes for safety mainly and other reasons this period.

-What have members of this forum done individually and what can we do to assist our brothers & sisters from Ukraine?

Unfortunately, there's only so much crypto can do to save the world if authoritarians like Trudeau can empower themselves to sieze dissidents' crypto wallets.

I didn't run away, I just said that I took some of my family members from Kyiv and took them to my home! And I will not take a single step from my house, and I am not the only one, so you can assume that Putin has already lost this war, ^{[Russia would never have negotiated if their offensive had been successful]}.

A kilometer from my house, my friends and I built a fortified checkpoint, my wife cooks food for those who are on combat duty at this checkpoint, and I deliver what is hard to get, (today I gave away my electric generator and several boxes of groceries and also brought several boxes of Molotov cocktails). Tomorrow I will think about where to find a car to deliver my freezer (to store donated blood).

After watching the video, you might think that this kind of activity is ridiculous compared to Putin's weapons, but it stops being ridiculous when 15 million people do it for the fourth day in a row, (and the most surprising thing is that everyone whom Putin allegedly seeks to protect is involved in this).

I have seen on multiple occasions where Russian tanks are flying the Soviet flag. What is their intention? Do they want to claim back the old territory of the soviet union? They are trying to minimize the damages of infrastructure and avoided civilian casualties. It looks like they want to gain support from Ukrainian and reuse those infrastructure. Their goal is to add Ukraine with Russia. But Putin will stop here if succeed to do these or this plan is far greater?

Greetings to all members of this forum.

My name is Alex and I am a citizen of Ukraine and currently live in its territory.

As many of you know, on February 24th, Russia invaded our territory and we are currently at war. It had a direct impact on me and my loved ones.

This is an appeal to all forum participants who want to somehow help the people of my country.

It's not madness to call on your citizens to fight. It's practically their duty (though of course you can't really force them). This is still a better stance than that coward of an Afghan president Ghani that fled even before the Taliban reached Kabul.


Very little time to train since the Russians are already outside Kyiv. This is why I advocate a mandatory training like they do in South Korea. At least your population know how to use equipment.

I published a post in Bitcointalk titled : Is Putin threatening or Serious to attack Ukraine.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5385526.0

The statistical results are as follows.

The research question was : Would Russia Invade Ukraine?

30 people responded to the question but only 20 response were statistically valid.

Analysis was done using simple percentage.

9 respondents which represented 45% of respondents agreed that Russia would not attack Ukraine.

6 respondents which represents 30% of respondents accepted that Russia would invade Ukraine.

While 5 respondents which stands for 25% of population were undecided.

Hence, the researcher concludes that Putin wouldn't invade Ukraine.

But Where is Putin getting his guts to invade Ukraine?

As we all know Russia has started the invasion of Ukraine regardless of the threats of NATO and its Allies. Where is the confidence and strength of Russia coming from?

China: Although China has been cautious about the conflict between Russia but Beijing has also offered high support to Russian President Vladimir. The two world powers signed a joint treaty this month, agreeing on multiple foreign policy goals including no further expansion of NATO. NATO understands the military and economic consequences of the friendship between these globally feared nations.

Russian Military Might: Russian military is one of he best scientifically advanced force. With supersonic weapons like the Avangard, the Kinzhal and the Zircon. Russia is a force in the development of ranges of new hypersonic weapons.

Economy: It is generally believed that Russia has a fragile or ailing economy. But Russia has stockpiled large currency reserve, drastically reduced its use of dollar and trimmed its budget. It has kept overall debts to under two-thirds of his currency reserves making it the ninth least indebted country in the world. Economists believe that Russia can withstand any sanction without any effect for at least one year.

European Dependence: While Russia has reoriented it's trade transactions and  replaced  Western imports with Asian partners, the United States, who is the world’s leading energy consumer, is highly prone to shocks in oil and gas markets.  European nations also highly depend on Russia for copper, aluminum, wheat and other commodities.

Hungary and Belarus: President Orban of Hungary is regarded as a mole in the European Union. Although Hungary is a NATO nations but it has strong ties with Russia. In fact,  Hungary rejected British plea to deploy  NATO soldiers to protect them from Russian aggression. Hungarian government has consistently failed to veto any EU sanctions against Russia.  Lukashenko the President of Belarus is a dependable ally of Putin. His country which which borders the northern part of Ukraine is just 100km to Kiev. And his country could join forces with Russia or can be used as airfields, transportation and logistics purposes.

Cryptocurrencies: I am not insinuating that Cryptos should be used as a means of financing war, neither am I supporting Russia invasion of Ukraine. But some analyst have observed that the reason why Russia is giving cryptocurrencies the green light is because it could be used to bypass the the global financial systems Analyst insists that Russia companies have many cryptocurrency instruments at their disposal to evade sanctions, example are the so-called digital ruble and ransomware.

The people of the U.S. have struck a bargain with Satan where a special area in hell has been reserved just for them.

As they have achieved their end of the deal by committing more evil than any other peoples throughout history, the vast majority of Americans will enjoy a slightly cooler area in the fire-pit where they will burn eternally.
