This week, vatniks were busy writing about Russia’s future after the war and how it should function – which is in stark contrast with reality and how this failed state actually functions. We also have a description of how exactly Russian assaults look like. And I might be mistaken here, but a death rate of 179/180 of a squad isn’t really a good thing.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder. Hosted on Acast.

Everyone's going full WTF right now, because Trump's made a massive blunder in the peace negotiations. Including vatniks.
