Show us a version of “diplomacy” that is not telling Ukraine to surrender their land.
“Call for diplomacy” = bossy outsiders telling Ukraine to surrender.
Lula or Xi have no moral authority to tell Ukraine they must surrender. This is Ukraine’s decision to make. They don’t need outsiders telling them to negotiate (surrender). If Lula or Xi want to “call for diplomacy” they should tell Putin to withdraw to 1991 borders instead of telling Ukraine to surrender.

Lula and Brazil have approximately zero influence on Putin. Even the Kremlin has approximately zero influence on Putin.
Basically Russia needs to lose badly and repeatedly until Putin either wakes up or dies. Hopefully one of these events can transpire sooner than later.
Basically every single call for “diplomacy” is a bad faith proposal for Ukraine to surrender.

The only path to peace is for Russia to withdraw to internationally recognized 1991 borders.
If other nations think they can diplomatically talk Putin into withdrawing, great. But if these people think they can command Ukraine to surrender, they need to sit down and shut up.

That’s unfortunate. Knowingly employing violent criminals risks the security of the base. Dressing it up as “not giving them the satisfaction” of acknowledging the blackmail is rationalization.

Wild. I sincerely hope the response was to stop employing Turkish nationals on the base entirely.

The aircraft were STOLEN, not stranded. They deliberately rushed them all into Russia in a panic when the legal owners attempted to legally retake custody of their property.
Now the aircraft are uninsurable scrap metal after having maintenance neglected and parts cannibalized.

Well played. Hopefully the Russian spies were also deported.

No. That doesn’t address the actual cause.
These guys are already pedos, whether they’re married or not. They need to be criminally prosecuted instead of covered up and protected.

So Ricard confessed…. Why isn’t he in jail yet?

Reply to Belarus to Mobilize 1.5 Million Potential Soldiers Outside the Armed Forces in Case of War, Senior Belarusian Official Claims by Leshracc
The headline and article are a bit misleading. The quote simply says there are 1.5 million military aged men in Belarus.
They can't effectively mobilize all those men. Their professional military is tiny and poorly equipped.
