When it was time to sign the final agreement. Then they withdrew.


There were so many peace summits but no final agreement were reached.


OK but it clearly show that the negotiations ended on the 14th of March. After this the fightings increased

The encirclement of Kiev continued.

On what date was the agreement going to be signed?

After the 29th more than two weeks after the peace talks ended?


You know there was intense fighting after the peace talks ended why was that the case?


Russia didn't redraw from Kiev because they wanted to they were beaten out of Kiev.


This is just last two years don't change the narrative.

⚡Julian Assange was greeted with enthusiastic applause in Canberra.

Upon descending from the plane, the first thing he did was hug his wife and father.

Very pleased with Assange release.
Wikileaks was the defining political event of an entire generation.
In truth, Assange and Snowden were instrumental in further sapping the goodwill and moral legitimacy the West, primarily the US, had enjoyed since the fall of the Berlin War.
I'm glad they are both alive to witness the fruits of their labor--multipolarism.

Oh OK so this is the problem with your explanation.



[i]Initially, Russian forces captured key areas to the north and west of Kyiv, leading to international prediction of the city's imminent fall. [/i]However, stiff Ukrainian resistance sapped Russian momentum. Poor Russian logistics and tactical decisions helped the defenders to thwart efforts at encirclement, and, after a month of protracted fighting, Ukrainian forces began counterattacking.

Following the successful Ukrainian counterattacks in late March, Russia began withdrawing its forces from the Kyiv area on 29 March. Four days later, the Ukrainian authorities declared that Kyiv and the surrounding Kyiv Oblast were again under Ukrainian control.


Pay attention to the dates.


The first peace talks meeting was held four days after the start of the invasion, on 28 February 2022, in Belarus. It concluded without result ( true or false) , with delegations from both sides returning to their capitals for consultations.[1] A second and third round of talks took place on[b] 3 and 7 March 2022[/b],[2][3] on the Belarus–Ukraine border, in an undisclosed location in the Gomel region of Belarus.[4] A fourth and fifth round of talks were respectively held on 10 and 14 March in Antalya, Turkey. ( true or false)


The peace talks ended on the 14th of March but the fighting only increased with losses on both sides Russian even tried circling Kiev but couldn't.


So are you saying Russia kept fighting after agreeing to redraw from Kiev? Because apparently they were still fighting till late March 2022. True or false

don't waste your TIME sir, only a f%l believes that Putin after invading Ukraine, simply decided to pull out of Kiev as goodwill for negotiation with the West.

yet the first thing the Russians did was to attack and secure the hostmel airport by its special forces outside Kiev to be used as staging area to bring in troops to attack Kiev.

before invading they were already in Place discussion with the West, yet he invaded, Sir please imagine you were in negotiation with the West,yet you felt the term's were not good to you and attack Kiev, you then withdrew because you want to start new negotiations when you have the opportunity to topple the government, will taken Kiev not give Putin more bargaining chips??

also as you rightly said the invasion was widely televised, the war pioneer the Use of satellite to see the battle field in real time, we could see that the Russians were actively trying to encircled Kiev, the movement of troops and tanks and the use of Belarus as another point of entry shows they wanted to take Kiev.

the long famed 65km long convey that was sent to the Kiev region was to do what? The truth was that the Russian over hype themselves and underestimate the resolve of the Ukrainian and were too poorly trained and poorly equiped to fight a large urban warfare, thus they were baten and shamefully withdraw.

there was nothing like any deal by the West, for them to withdraw.

leave dose guys, can you even imagine Putin having the chance to remove the government in Kiev, will now withdraw it's troops, because he magically now trust the West, the same West he was in negotiation with for years about the security of the Ukrainian state and there was no agreement

This video discusses the impact of sanctions on Gazprom, Russia’s state-owned gas giant, in the wake of the Russia-Ukraine war. The video argues that Gazprom is unlikely to recover from the loss of European markets for at least a decade and will need significant government support to survive.

Highlights
🤯 Gazprom has suffered a major financial blow: The company posted a $7 billion loss in 2023, its first loss in over 20 years. This is due to the loss of European markets for its natural gas, which previously accounted for a significant portion of its revenue.
📉 Demand for natural gas is plateauing: Global demand for natural gas is expected to peak around 2037, as countries transition to renewable energy sources. This trend will further impact Gazprom’s future prospects.
⛽ LNG is the future: The video highlights the importance of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in the global gas market. While Russia has significant natural gas reserves, it lacks the infrastructure to export LNG and is behind its competitors in this area.
🚧 Russia needs to invest heavily: Gazprom requires significant government investment to build LNG plants and compete in the global LNG market. However, the Russian government is currently focused on the war in Ukraine and may not have the resources to support Gazprom’s ambitions.
⚠️ A bleak future for Gazprom: The video concludes that Gazprom’s future is uncertain. The company’s ability to recover from the loss of European markets and compete in the LNG market is questionable, potentially leading to job losses and economic hardship in Russia.

⚡The International Monetary Fund (IMF) forecasts that Russia’s economy will grow up to 2.6% in 2024, up from the IMF’s original forecast in October 2023.

Speaking about the Kremlin’s financial position, Alexandra Prokopenko, fellow at the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Centre, said sanctions had “paradoxically enough, protected the economy from certain external shocks”.

“Economic growth in Russia today benefits from the fact that the Russian economy is heavily geared toward free market mechanisms and forces, increased levels of government spending and the willingness of China and India to import vast quantities of Russian hydrocarbons.”

Withdrawal from everywhere was their biggest mistake. Yes it wasn't part of their plans to occupy those places they withdrew from but they should have held down the place.

Trusting Ukraine or the west is foolish.


Disbanding Wagner was the second.

Disbanding wagner (Europe) wasn't an error.

If what happened last year had succeeded (the revolt), do you think you'd be here posting Russian's successes?

You can't allow a powerful militia arm of that magnitude to be out of the mother bear's control.

The leadership were like they were about to be bought.

How about putting it under Russian MOD control?


Huge battlefield successes were made during Wagners reign because they weren't afraid of losses. They were mostly prisoners.

They should have used Wagner to capture Odessa at least before disbanding.

All these threats from Ukranian sea drones wouldn't have existed if they did.

NATO wouldn't dare attack from their territory (Romania).

But with 700k troops already in Ukraine, Russia has big plans for them.

Nothing concerns me with Russia's war with Ukraine so I don't know if Ukraine redrew their forces from Mariupol that I don't know and that isn't what I'm talking about.

It's my first time hearing that Russia redrew from Kiev I have always believed they lost at Kiev and were forced to retreat. I have good reason to believe so. And non of you have been able to prove otherwise.
