    1. @Henry of course not you’re not stupid

      You wouldn’t believe our tax dollars are better spent in Ukraine either

    2. @Henry the world isn’t that complicated

      If the government controlled media is telling you something, it’s wrong.

  1. I don’t believe them at all. They offered clear & safe passages for Ukrainian citizens, then either unalived them or captured them. I think they did that a few times in different places.

    I follow Mercado Media Productions. Independent journalist.

  2. I can only hope this is real and that Russia is rethinking this stupid war idea.

    No matter what excuses they feel the need to tell.

  3. Believe it when I see it. It appears though they are only giving up the east side of the river, not the entire area.

    1. Listening to Ukrainian news they are not playing it up as much as western media. Russians have actually brought in more soldiers to supplement what was already there. Ukrainians are expecting a Stalingrad-type showdown.

  4. Or they got ran out by Ukrainian military but instead of accepting defeat, they’re like…We were leaving anyway.

  5. So now there concerned about civilians!🤦🏻‍♂️The fact is that the best fighters in the former Soviet Union came from Ukraine, not Russia. Pick a fight with the best die with the rest. Slava, Ukraine.

  6. Regardless of how the economic is declining this days, I’m so happy 😊 that I have been earning $45k returns each time I place an investment of $7k

    1. Most people don’t know that Investing is the best and surest way to grow income. I realized this after came across Expert Mason financial education class.

    2. @Patricia Murray Alot of people are benefiting through the help of this Mr Mason Wesley, wow his investment strategies must be really good

    3. @Deniece Edwards-Scott Indeed he provides the best trading strategies for investors that’s why everyone is talking about him this way

  7. Does it not seem odd that Russia would publicly announce a military strategy?!?! 🙄
    “…Hence, when we are able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must appear inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.”
