Where is the European Left when we need it so much? Everybody was apt to condemn the American invasion of Iraq on the grounds of ‘it’s all about the oil money.’ But when a horde of pillagers invades an entire country to make a good haul of Nike sneakers and mid-range booze...
...when Russian officers evacuate washing machines, not wounded comrades, when Russian soldiers throw away their armor plates and insert MacBooks into their ballistic vests, where is the universal condemnation of this bourgeoise greed?
looks like China really stepped in & de facto backed Ukraine in this war for the survival of Ukrainian nation.
Lumping russia and China together is wrong and I warned about the shallow mindedness of this approach a long time ago:

Xi kicked putin out of KZ, reversed the invasion and Tokayev even appointed "anti-russian Kazakh nationalist" as one of his ministers

Ukraine's case may be another example of the Chinese influence growth.
Not quite sure that this is what America wants to see, but the U.S./NATO have had a lot of time to "deter" Muscovy and change putin's decisiveness/calculus re Ukraine's invasion -- and they squandered it.

Russian Army columns North of Kyiv decaying into immobile blobs due to the mud season, poorly maintained Chinese truck tires and shear “follow the plan” Russian incompetence.

2/ all the columns’ heads are now out of fuel and battery power and they can’t move north, south or sideways... everything behind them is stuck because of the mud, and rapidly running out of fuel and vehicle battery charge too (assuming they haven’t already).
3/ Nor can any of those columns defend themselves, because they’re too densely packed. They’re just targets waiting for the Ukrainians to destroy them.
Only the Ukrainians had something better to do.

dear Western journalists...
there is a crucial distinction, guys, between the left map and the right map.
russians move by big roads, hence it is just misleading to deem all the territory between those roads as russian.
it is not.
it is where the civilians fight them.
