Beginning of Surrender at Azovstal

[Sertorio]

That's for certain. But it makes it so much easier for Putin, with monopoly control over the Russian media, to evoke memories of the Great patriotic War Against Fascism (as Russians I believe call World War Two) and the horrors that accompanied that conflict in order to manipulate Russian public opinion in favour of his "special military operation" pre-emptive strike.

What I saw in the May 9 celebration in Moscow was a very dignified celebration, a very subdued speech by Putin, a show of strength without arrogance. Russia is indeed everything the US is unable to be and for Europe to cooperate with Russia would be a lot better for our freedom and independence than the so-called alliance with the US.

Cool story, now tell us the one about how you don't support the Putin regime.

It's not my business to support Putin's regime, as I am not Russian. I do support his effort to kick the US out of Europe and destroy NATO as an organization. Once that done I will be happy with any decision by the Russians in respect of the Russian political regime...

A group of Ukrainian military in the Azovstal area in Mariupol came out with a white flag to the road intended for the evacuation of civilians, said the commander of the Vostok battalion Alexander Khodakovsky.

“Towards the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the Russian military moved forward as truce envoys. This is the first personal contact of the parties for the entire time of the fighting in Mariupol, ”the military reporter of the All-Russian State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company in Ukraine, Yevgeny Poddubny, notes in the Telegram channel.

So it starts. The alternative is pulverization...

Imagine the fighters in Azovstal are saying they will fight to the death even after they "Surrendered"

Do you ever stop denying facts for the sake of fantasies?...People in Mariupol did not celebrate May 9th, just like American astronauts never landed on the Moon... And the Earth IS flat!...

Well maybe the Ukrainian fighters figure Putin will have them brought to the Kremlin so he can see what real soldier men look like instead of his little green men, and they plan to kill him at the meeting.
