Lol dude germany is not a puppet state. We have our own diplomats and foreign interests. Germany in itself has very little ties in the region all together.

Are you suffering from too much karma, or just woefully uninformed about how things work in the region?

About every third day in the long-term average. Normally they don't make international news, but after the Turkey earthquakes every 6.x gets media attention for a while.

> “China must help us put pressure on Russia so that it never uses chemical or nuclear weapons … and that it stops its aggression as a precondition for talks,” he [Macron] added.
Kind of what he it trying to do.

The current Russian leadership is unlikely to survive being pushed out of Ukraine - and if it does, the country will be broken demographically and economically.
Even if it does lead to an extended, drawn-out conflict we have to let other dictators know that aggression is punished harshly.
Economic sanctions haven’t had as harsh an immediate affect as some hoped, but the country will be bled dry fighting sanctions and a major war at the same time.

According to the russians themselves, they have lost 419 000 able-bodied men from their economy since from January-October 2022. These are the rich/educated people that actually can afford to run. People that you really want in your economy.

Their currency has been isolated so far, they are still being hit hard.

And yet I wonder, what the life of an average Ukrainian citizen is also enduring…
No need to respond… we all have seen the horrors your government is putting them thru. I’m glad life for you isn’t so bad. Entire cities have been wiped from the face of the earth. Their citizens and children shipped to camps inside Russia. But I’m glad you still have your Mercedes parts and hot water.

If the Russian armed forces are repelled from ukrainian territory, the collapse of the Russian army and federation is nigh.

Even if you can push out Russia that doesn't end the war. It will be just like Palestine but with a lot and real rockets.
Just Russia terrorizing Ukraine with rockets across the borders.
All the sanctions have way less effect than the west would like. The exports were down 18.9% in 2022 but that is only if you look at the full year. In the end of the year exports were only down 10.6% YoY. So Russia replaced already 80% of the exports to the EU with exports to other countries.
The GDP went only down by 2.2%.
Ukraine will also not lose they are getting more than enough fresh supply from the west to sustain.
So this defeat you are talking about will take 10 years +. If no one is interested in peace talks which might be the case.

Well could be that we do get more earthquakes based on solar activity and the sun has been acting a little bit weird lately while also approaching it's projected cycle peak.
It's still a loose correlation based link, but we haven't written it off yet and this cycle will be a good one to study.
