Russian stuff blowing up: Putin offers a laughable 'peace' proposal [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2024-06-14 Putin offers a ceasefire if Ukraine withdraws from areas Russia has been unable to seize. That’s like Hitler in 1944 offering a ceasefire if he gets to keep France and all of Russia west of the Urals. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I have a better proposal — Leave all of Ukraine now including Crimea, return all the kidnapped children, release all prisoners, arrest Putin and send him to The Hague and pay reparations and the war will end. x PUTIN: “Ukrainian troops must be COMPLETELY withdrawn from all territories of the DPR, LPR, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions. Then negotiations are possible" Good luck buddy! — WarTranslated (Dmitri) (@wartranslated) June 14, 2024 I’m sure Ukraine will be happy to accept Russia’s surrender. x "If Kyiv refuses to accept Putin's conditions, Russia will in any case liberate the territory of the new entities. This is the last peaceful proposal from our side. The next one will be a surrender offer," Deputy Speaker of the State Duma Pyotr Tolstoy said. pic.twitter.com/TuJUvkvMCI — NOELREPORTS 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 (@NOELreports) June 14, 2024 I wonder why Putin came out with this bullshit proposal today?

[There is] no need to spare their psyche anymore! Let them shiver in their cozy homes, let them shiver under the blankets. “If they yell about our use of fake news, let’s turn their life into a complete crazy nightmare in which they will not be able to distinguish wild fiction from the realities of the day, infernal evil from the routine of life.” He says “…there should be no rules in inflicting pain on the West for the harm Russia is suffering. Everyone can contribute!” He finishes by invoking the Bible, quoting the Old Testament book Leviticus 24:20: “Remember: a fracture for fracture, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth; whatever injury a man has given to a person shall be given back to him.” The dumpster fire that Russia’s Kharkiv offensive has become just gets worse. This report says that Ukraine recently took 28 Russians prisoner. Their comments are fairly typical of what other POWs have said.. x #Ukraine Unit Captures Dozens of Russian Troops During #Kharkiv Sector #Counterattack Kyiv’s 3rd Assault Brigade may have established some sort of record for the number of Russian service personnel taken captive during a single battle.https://t.co/0sbsOGHS9v — KyivPost (@KyivPost) June 13, 2024 Most soldiers speaking in the video complained they had been forced into the Russian army because of financial or legal problems, that training was superficial, and that once deployed to the field, food and water were in short supply. One said other soldiers beat him because his asthma prevented him from moving quickly enough. Almost without exception, the prisoners said their units had suffered crushing losses during dismounted attacks against well-prepared Ukrainian positions backed with artillery and FPV drones. Some reported casualty rates of above 90 percent during a single assault, with regular army Russian officers remaining behind the lines and not leading or participating in the attacks. “We got an order to attack some positions inside a chemical factory. I don’t know, maybe there were 70 of us. We drove there at night on BMPs [infantry fighting vehicles]. “The drones came almost immediately and wiped out just about everyone. Most of us were hit. They [the Ukrainians] worked professionally. They were FPV drones using night vision. Then Baba Yagas [heavy bomb-dropping drones] came. And then kamikaze drones. Only seven of us survived and we were wounded [sheltering] in a bunker. Then they [3rd Brigade infantry] came and took us prisoner,” one of the Russian soldiers said. Rest in peace. Animal rescuers take a lot of risks to evacuate pets and farm animals from the front.
