Extraordinary stuff on Russian television.

Re: Extraordinary stuff on Russian television.

At what time was that? The comment made by the BBC reporter at 0740 referred to bad news possibly being promulgated to the Russian public to limit their expectations but not about a withdrawal as such. For my part, I can't see the Russians giving up the areas they occupied before the full-scale invasion.

that was the bit I was referring to. By withdraw I didn't mean withdrew to their anti bellum position, just meant withdraw from the war.

I cannot see Zelenskyy or the Ukranians agree to give up any land, and will fight for it. Ukraine now have an army of 1m men that are well armed and capable of inflicting serious damage to Putin's conscripts.

It'd be gret if they went anti bellum

Is that meant to be funny?
I've been involved with Ukranians who have recently arrived in the UK and a lady I spoke to today, and who had her 6-year-old son with her, told me about them having to live underground in the Western Donbas for a month.

As the gentleman's presence on the programme must have been officially sanctioned perhaps it's a sign that shortfalls are being recognised by Putin but, like most despots, he will blame his underlings for them. He's ex-KGB and knows every trick in the book: take responsibility for successes and denounce failings as the responsibility of others.

Sounds like Warnock

I can't believe that all the money at stake, he hasn't been taken out yet. I thought he would have been gone weeks ago.

I was certainly not making any fun of the situation. It's appalling. It's why our house is open to Ukrainian refugees.

He's got a double? I gave up watching that show after season 1. Did they ever reveal what his relationship to that really annoying woman is?

I got as far as him being an impostor, and the real Reds bones being found..so not actually a double no, my other post therefore makes **** all sense.

Yes he was her father

Re: Extraordinary stuff on Russian television.

I delivered a welcome pack to a Ukranian lady today whose first language is Russian. She had to flee the city of Dniepro but her Russian grandmother in Siberia totally disbelieves her about the war and what Russia is doing in Ukraine - as Russian TV says otherwise. This situation is not uncommon. It's extraordinary and very sad when state propoganda trumps the experiences and explanations of close family.
