Cette nuit, 17 morts (provisoire) à Kyiv, 28 missiles balistiques tirés, pas un seul intercepté. L'Ukraine n'a pas de stocks de Patriot. Cet automne, les Russes vont en profiter pour détruire ce qui reste des centrales énergétiques et s'en prendre au système de distribution d'eau (1)

SNYDER: Russia's decision to invade Ukraine in 2014 was calamitous for them, and led to Russia being a satellite or client of China, a superloser. Russians didn't have to do this, they chose to do it. They could've been much greater power if they'd stayed between China and West.
