It's pretty funny how people guzzle propaganda while a report from the European Commission just raised the Russian GDP growth forecast for 2026 to 1.3% and lowered the EU economic growth forecast to 1.1%.

Weren't you personally predicting the war would end in 2024? After that failed "counteroffensive"?

I very much underestimated how irrational the west would be here. At this point I'm not going to be surprised if Europe joins the war directly and we end up in a nuclear holocaust.

War can end any time you want, Russia. And no, you don’t get to keep any occupied territory. Just leave and don’t come back.

Good luck with that

Who sets those terms? And why don't the people living in Donetsk and Luhansk get a say?
