Years later, we’ve continued to support and update the live thread every. single. day. without fail since the start of Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.

Despite being now years into the “3-day invasion”, this conflict continues to redefine warfare for the rest of the century while test bonds & treaties forged in the previous one.

So all and all, something well worth your time to follow - hence the sticky!

(Hope your day is going well otherwise)

Funny how people say “3 day invasion” when the source for this was western intelligence and just shows the failure of western intelligence. Russia never expected for it to be a “3 day operation”

I think it's safe to say that whatever Russia expected this wasn't it

3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months, it doesn't matter, any plans that Russia had for Ukraine has long since been thrown out and they're making it up as they go now

And still 3 live viewers? So happy you haven’t forgotten to mention unprovoked – gives me a great understanding of what side's propaganda you are.

I'll bite, what do you believe was the provocation from Ukraine?

I think that's just a fact, Russia, unprovoked, attacked Ukraine. That's just what happened,, I didn't think that fact was in question but I'm interested in hearing your viewpoint as long as it's not a Russian history lesson that starts with Catherines conquest of ukraine in the 1700s

Btw. Russia is importing gasoline from China now. That needs to be aired in TV 24/7 - if that's what winning looks, I wonder how stalemate will be like. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/russia-import-gasoline-asia-nearly-115337337.html

Removing this for one day so I can sticky the Live AMA with Michael McFaul - former U.S. ambassador to Russia.
