Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

- Start date
By losing 50,000 troops in Sumy and Kharkiv where Ukraine is dug in and waiting.
I mean the direct response in the coming days or weeks to retaliate against this Ukrainian retaliation, etc…
After losing half their Bombers? The next strategy is ground launched missiles that are highly vulnerable or ballistics that they'll need to announce launching or all NATO hell breaks loose.
So they still have the other 1/2 of their Bombers? Maybe 2/3rds? I didn’t insinuate that was Russia’s path, but just asked what it might be ‘cuz they’re gonna retaliate against the retaliation against the retaliation against the retaliation, etc…as that’s the pattern.
Previous attacks by Ukraine inside Russia have triggered retaliatory strikes and increasingly threatening rhetoric from the Kremlin. Moscow will have to retaliate, with speculation already appearing online about whether President Putin will again threaten the use of nuclear weapons.
Putin humiliated by 'Russia's Pearl Harbor' - as Kyiv goes for broke
Previous attacks by Ukraine inside Russia have triggered retaliatory strikes and increasingly threatening rhetoric from the Kremlin. But this latest operation is one of the biggest and most significant.
Ok. It's hard to exaggerate the sheer audacity - or ingenuity - that went into Ukraine's countrywide assault on Russia's air force.
We cannot possibly verify Ukrainian claims that the attacks resulted in $7bn (£5.2bn) of damage, but it's clear that "Operation Spider's Web" was, at the very least, a spectacular propaganda coup.
Propaganda comes in every conflict from every side. The most immediate focus, though, will be on how Mr Putin responds.

Would it be wise to move the rest of the bombers to the bases that were just proven to be vulnerable?
Moving others from the far east leaves the far east unprotected. Ukraine did attack a Pacific naval base at the sametime as the bomber bases which was a harsh warning that Siberia is vulnerable and nowhere inside Russia is safe.
Russia's ass is exposed.
So, Pooh tin is planning to punish himself? All of this is his fault.So they still have the other 1/2 of their Bombers? Maybe 2/3rds?

Russia and Ukraine wrapped up a second round of talks in Istanbul that failed to bring the two sides closer to ending the war, but laid the groundwork for a new exchange of prisoners.
The Russian delegation handed over peace proposals that include Kyiv surrendering control of territory it still holds in four partially occupied regions, a Ukrainian official said.
Kyiv demanded an unconditional truce, said Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, the country’s chief negotiator.
Russia in turn proposed a ceasefire for two-to-three days along certain parts of the front to allow the evacuation of war dead, the head of the Russian delegation, presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky, said. Moscow also presented a two-part memorandum with conditions for a permanent ceasefire and peace agreement, he said.
The two ex-Soviet neighbors agreed to prepare for a new exchange of all heavily wounded POWs, young soldiers under 25 years of age as well as 6,000 bodies. Ukraine also suggested another meeting later this month.

The latest direct peace talks in Istanbul lasted only about an hour and came a day after Kyiv staged one of its boldest aerial attacks inside Russia, destroying long-range bombers and other aircraft.
Also on Sunday, Moscow launched one of its longest drone and missile attacks against Kyiv with air sirens lasting for more than nine hours, escalating tensions ahead of the peace talks.
The previous round in mid-May in the Turkish commercial capital ended after nearly two hours with no progress except for a prisoner swap. Monday’s meeting marks only the second time the two warring sides have held public negotiations since the early days of the conflict.
Prospects for peace remain distant despite months of high-profile efforts by US President Donald Trump, who has grown increasingly frustrated with the lack of progress.
Moscow has so far resisted a US proposal for a 30-day ceasefire and has laid out maximalist demands to end its invasion, now in its fourth year of its three day war.
While Trump has threatened to impose more sanctions on Russia, he’s held off on taking that step.
