For some light entertainment, read the replies on his thread from an assortment of odd bots. Russia is waging a truly hybrid war.
For a spot of future warfare gazing, watch his 10 minute speech to RUSI on his website. Blimey.
Zelensky just visited Bakhmut.
Great to see this president visit the front lines.
Exactly ...very embarrassing for Putin that he hasn't visited the 4 provinces he's claimed for Russia.Remarkable, quite a symbolic statement.
When you consider that the closest Putin has got to the war is probably Minsk, he must be absolutely seething at this. Very embarrassing for him.
I don't think Putin is capable of doing 'embarrassing', any more than he has the slightest idea of what the word 'nazi' means. Or right and wrong for that matter.Exactly ...very embarrassing for Putin that he hasn't visited the 4 provinces he's claimed for Russia.
