Artillery shelling and probing attacks by Ukrops has started up along with the shooting down of the Russian fighter in Syria.
By all objective measures, the Minski II accords which were agreed upon by non-official Ukrainian persons and which have been formally rejected by the Ukrainian govt, are completely dead. Russia's Western and Ukrainian "partners" ::vomit:: still blame Russia for everything and Russia continues to expect BOTH sides to adhere the accords. Russia has shown its distaste for a people's republic and all the leaders of the uprising have had to run for their lives or have been murdered.
The RF in the meantime is trying to support the Syrian government. Erdogan in addition to ambushing the Russian jet, also has invaded Iraq and has now occupied Mosul. There is continued talk of "peacekeeping" force of 100,000 troops composed of such countries as the Saudis, Qataris, and US/NATO forces setting up shop in Iraq to finish the job on ISIS. Erdogan has shown he is willing to shut off the Dardanelles. Russia can't respond short of a nuclear war -- other than sanctions. Erdogan expects to get the natural gas he was supposed to get from his Russian "partners" from a Qatar pipeline running up through Syria and or Iraq.
Now Plotinsky of the LPR has announced that the humanitarian aid truck columns from Russia will be stopped -- in the beginning of Winter! ::
For all those who think The Empire is about finished, I think Putin is the one trying to play a bad hand.
One more thing, the Putin fans think that Putin did exactly the right thing in not occupying the Donbass in March, 2013. He knew full well that Ukraine couldn't pay its bills and would eventually realized that Russia was its real future. Well, Putin's Clever Plan just fell apart when the IMF decided to loan Ukraine $3 billion to pay off its Russian lenders. So much for the Clever Plan.
Putin, did you really expect them not to change the rules?
