    • Why announce this? To harden russias resolve and rally nationalistic furor and make it easier for Putin to use nukes? Or to show that Ukraine can target high_niko
    • ...ranking Russians with ease and that nobody in Putins inner circle is safe?_niko
    • Or for America to publicly denounce an escalatory measure it had no part in.Nairn
    • Feels weird like they’re throwing Ukraine under the bus vs ridiculing Russia for their ineptitude_niko
    • Perhaps some in the US Admin feel they were thrown under a bus for not being included in what was quite a big decision?Nairn
    • Or, perhaps it's just fog of war and a report got blown out of proportion.Nairn
    • What I find IS interesting here is the deflation of whatever the name of that Russian terrorist group was, which I've heard nowt about since...Nairn
    • ..or perhaps THAT is the reason for the US position here? That in fact they want to redirect attention away from that Russian group they're not at all funding?Nairn
    • Who the fuck knows. It's interesting one way or another... .Nairn

    • The problem I have with this sort of article being published is that it implies there are cracks in the US's and Nato's relationship with Ukraine ...Continuity
    • ... thus giving the Russkies both a morale boost, and a possible thing to exploit.Continuity
    • But how would this translate to a Russian Morale-Boost in any practical sense?Nairn
    • @pablo28 - the 'funny' thing is tha you could have accurately said as much asbout RU until a few months back, blyat they've singularly fucked their Arms exportsNairn
    • ..and global relevance, so no fucker's going to care whjat fires they try and stoke in future. Well, except China, but just 'cos they're keeping watch.Nairn
    • Well, morale boosts aren't necessarily practical, by definition. But the Ruskies can point to this article to the zimbie masses, and say,Continuity
    • 'Look! Look! Even the Americans are abandoning the Ukrainians!', spurring on renewed energy.

      *zombie. Like pablo28
      Continuity
