    Might we see, after the final round of the Romanian election, an anti-Brussels confederacy taking shape in the south-east of Europe, an anti-Zelensky trio of states: Hungary, Slovakia and Romania, allied with Serbia, and maybe later with Bulgaria too?

    Greece too has traditionally been aligned with Russia and hostile to Turkey (also a NATO member). Erdogan has rapproched with Putin since their hostilities in its southern border region with Syria seemed to fade into nothing. Turkey seems to favour negotiation in Ukraine as opposed to stoking the war, unlike most in NATO.

    Male Ukrainians not even safe from enforced conscription when living abroad. Kiev wants hundreds of thousands more for the meat grinder.

    Dragged from bars, like in press-gang times.

    I am simply pointing out that the notion that Putin is about to fall is obviously western propaganda.

    I wish a pox on the lot of them, but the only way the Ukraine war will end, ending the militaristic bravado of the likes of Starmer, Micron and Merz, is for Zelensky to lose power in Kiev.

    A state about to collapse? I very much doubt it.

    Merz has now won the Chancellorship. 🤢

    ” Much more likely that Putin gets ousted than Zelenskyy.”

    I don’t know how you can believe that. One might as well say that Xi will be ousted. Putin is considered a god by 9 out of 10 Russians. His army is bulldozing Ukraine, in spite of western weapons.

    Exactly as I would say, Robbo.

    The best thing for Ukraine and for all of us now would be for the Ukrainians to oust Zelensky and agree to Putin’s demands, ending the war.

    By the way, I see warmonger Merz failed to get the majority he needed to become Chancellor, so far. Also, that an anti-Brussels pro-Hungary candidate won the first round of the Romanian election, which buggers NATO’s plans for leverage in the Black Sea. Good news, even though he’s called a “right extremist.” (Nothing more extremist than the Brussels, Paris and London gang!)

    I always say better a “fascist” who calls for peace than a “democrat” who calls for war!

    I don’t feel this is likely, not with stronger ties with China and the ever stronger support of what Putin calls “the global south.”

    I thought the collapse came with the end of the U.S.S.R., and that now we are seeing the fall of the European Union, which is losing members like Hungary, Slovakia and Romania, presaging the eventual disintegration of NATO.

    Russia is seemingly recovering, but in the shade of China, while the USA is increasingly chaotic.

    But why are Hungary and Slovakia pro-Russia? Why are the right wing (so-called) parties pro-Russia? One may say it’s because they’re not in power, but they are in Hungary and Slovakia, and remain opposed to a war with Russia.
