Nothing has happened that's anywhere close to reaching the threshold for Russia to use nuclear weapons so far. In the event that Ukraine captures a Russian NPP, and likely the tactical nuclear weapons storage facility also within Kursk Oblast is a different matter though.

From the FT Ukraine is pulling troops from the East for this adventure. Basically admitting the east is lost.

They would have had to learn to check their anti semetism and know their place.

Even if we give her the benefit of the doubt and say she didn't actually mean what she said, she deserves locking up for the stupidity of it. Why on earth would you post something like that?

I think its very likely that the only way zelensky stays alive is by continuing the war.
