    If Russia pursues this path, there's no real prospect for real peace, only an interminable border war that could last decades mirrored on larger scale by a Cold War style continental divide.https://twitter.com/I_Katchanovski/status/1517530582552653825 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    Ivan Katchanovski @I_Katchanovski
    Senior #Russian military official & various politicians openly suggest that Russia plans to seize from #Ukraine not only entire #Donbas but also other regions of Easters & Southern Ukraine & declare them independent or annex to #Russia via referendum. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/apr/22/ukraine-south-occupation-russian-military-chief-rustam-minnekayev …

        It would be foolish to rule this out. And, if even possible, it suggests somebody in Russia has done the sanctions math and been like 🤷🏻‍♂️

        It seems Russia is determined to occupy a land corridor so as to make Crimea contiguous.

        The war was always against the Ukrainian nationalists as Putin declared on day one of the war. Not sure what was unclear about that.

        Maybe Russia saw how Israel got away with annexing land.

        The prospect for real peace is thus Ukraine kicking their asses back home and then joining whatever alliances they want.

        No. There isn't. Russia doesn't have the money to take #Ukraine, let alone anything else.

        There is some doubt over whether "senior #Russian" official Rustam Minnekayev is in a position to say anything about what Putin and his inner circle are really planning to do in Ukraine.https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/22/world/skepticism-greets-a-bold-russian-claim-about-war-aims-based-on-its-source.html …

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        Ukrainian army is advancing around Kherson, seems like a hasty move on the part of Russia to create some fait accompli. neither Ukraine, nor the west is likely to be deterred.

        The rushed formal pretend legalism Putin loves so much is easily the best part of the referendum timetables lol
