“Let us know the future dates when we will invade Ukraine, I have to organize the holidays”. The Russians make fun of the Americans

Biden was needed to give such a victory to Putin. Meanwhile, Blinken, US foreign minister, said that “Unfortunately there is a difference between what Russia says and what it does. And we're not seeing a significant withdrawal. On the contrary, we continue to see forces on the border ”. Yes, but they are within the Russian borders, and it is a bit difficult to impose a demilitarized zone on a sovereign state. Unless you want a war …
