VOZNESENSK, Ukraine—A Kalashnikov rifle slung over his shoulder, Voznesensk’s funeral director, Mykhailo Sokurenko, spent this Tuesday driving through fields and forests, picking up dead Russian soldiers and taking them to a freezer railway car piled with Russian bodies—the casualties of one of the most comprehensive routs President Vladimir Putin’s forces have suffered since he ordered the invasion of Ukraine.
A rapid Russian advance into the strategic southern town of 35,000 people, a gateway to a Ukrainian nuclear power station and pathway to attack Odessa from the back, would have showcased the Russian military’s abilities and severed Ukraine’s key communications lines.

NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg said Wednesday the alliance was not planning to send forces to Ukraine, after Poland called for it to deploy a peacekeeping mission.
“We call on Russia, on President (Vladimir) Putin to withdraw its forces, but we have no plans of deploying NATO troops on the ground in Ukraine,” Stoltenberg said after a meeting of NATO defence ministers.
He hasn't in Russia yet
Here read for yourself what he meant
– ‘Spit them out like a fly’ –
The Russian leader said Western sanctions had “one aim: the destruction of Russia”.He compared the avalanche of Western sanctions to anti-Semitic violence by fascists.
“The West dropped its mask of civility and began to act belligerently. It begs a comparison to the anti-Semitic pogroms” of Nazis, he said.
Putin claimed that the West sought to divide Russian society, railing against a “fifth column” that was “mentally” in the West.
“Russian people will always be able to distinguish true patriots from traitors and just spit them out like a fly that accidentally flew into their mouth,” he said.
He alleged that the Russian army’s operation in Ukraine was unfolding “successfully”.
“We will not allow Ukraine to serve as a springboard for aggressive actions against Russia,” he said.
He claimed Western leaders gave him “no option to resolve the process in a peaceful way”.

I wasn't talking about Russia, Ukraine is where he is trying to do the most damage!
Poutine was not talking about Ukraine. He was talking about Russians in Russia who are not supporting him.
