Ukraine told critics of the pace of its three-month-old counteroffensive to "shut up" on Thursday, the sharpest signal yet of Kyiv's frustration at leaks from Western officials that say its forces are advancing too slowly.

    ”This is a US proxy war.”

    ”That’s an uninformed rant!”

    …

    ”This is a US proxy war, and that’s a good thing.”

      Proxy War…

      a war instigated by a major power which does not itself become involved.

      You are saying that the US had a role in instigating this war? What was it? Sounds like Putin’s language to justify his stupidity

          Sure hated to see that Putin puppet go, didn’t you. That happens sometimes. I hate Nazis, especially Chicago Nazis.

                Yeah, I know the reference which you here use as a snide dismissal in order not to engage with the argument presented to you. You would have been one of the guys storming the building.
