The construction of 2,000 kilometers (1,240 miles) of fortifications across three lines of defense is “a massive task, but the pace is good,” Zelensky said.

    So if Russia has its defense line, and Ukraine has its defense line, are they finally accept peace, or are they gonna WWI this shit?

      It basically has been “WWI, but with drones” since russia got pushed away from North of Ukraine.

        I meant the later stages of WWI where countries started running out of bright young men to send to get shot crossing an open field.

        It’s not currently possible for either of us to have an accurate view of what atrocities either side is committing due to the distortions and outright fabrications being disseminated.

        But we can extrapolate from the shelling, pogroms, and discriminatory laws preceding the invasion and pretty reliably infer that atrocities would increase if Ukraine took the Russian-speaking regions.
