Xi Jinping asked Putin to delay Ukrainian invasion

Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin
[ColonelCassad] The end of January is rapidly approaching and it is necessary to somehow explain why the ultra-accurate intelligence data about Russia's attack on Ukraine at the end of January diverge from reality and Russia still does not attack.

Here are the first stories. Let's go:

"Russia did not attack because Xi Jinping may have asked Putin not to attack while the Olympics are in China."

So he took it, called, and said like this, "Vladimir, we have the Olympics here, hold the tanks until the end of February, and then you can even heat up to Lvov."

The key word in this bike is "maybe". Perhaps he spoke, perhaps he did not, anonymous sources heard something somewhere. In general, so far here are the explanations.

PS. And about the position of Germany.

1. Germany opposed the transfer of German weapons to Ukraine. Both their own and through third countries.

2. The commander of the German Navy announced that Ukraine has lost Crimea forever and that "Russia deserves respect."

3. The German leadership believes that Nord Stream 2 should be completed.

4. Somewhat earlier, Germany actually prevented the delivery of military cargo to Ukraine through its territory.

Germany is already being accused of cynical opposition and undermining the united anti-Russian bloc in Europe.

The Germans, in fact, are trying to prevent financial losses associated with a break with Russia and drawing themselves into a conflict with Russia at a level where they will be doomed to remain in the convoy of American politics without any chance of gaining a real military-political subjectivity.

Therefore, little by little they spoil the Americans, but this is exactly what frondism, and not a willingness to go to the end. Nevertheless, the squealing about the German figs in your pocket is worth a fair amount - Scholz is already being accused of continuing "Merkel's criminal policy associated with indulging the Kremlin's aggression."

#1 I'd rather watch the Russian invasion than the Chinese Olympics.

#2 People's Liberation Army (PLA) observers are assisting other customers and will not be available until after the Olympics.

Your military observer invitation is important to us. Please stay on the line. Your wait time is now 20 days.

#4 I think Russia wants the Nord Stream pipeline in operation before the military action is taken.

#7 Thanks to green policies across Europe, electricity prices have soared. They're up 500 percent in Sweden, for example. Consumers are being hammered and many small business are facing ruin.

How much European popular support do these jokers think there will be for policies that cause Russian gas exports to be slashed -- and European energy costs to rise not just five fold but TENfold?

#8 Just declare that shithole-Ukraine will never ever be part of NATO.

We gain absolutely nothing by avoiding such a declaration, and if we resolve this crisis by addressing Russia's legitimate security concerns about NATO expansion, we can finally start to pull Russia away from China.

Kissinger and Nixon knew how to do this. Does anyone today know how to play this game?

#9 If Trump was president right now, it would be fun to watch him do just that and ask Putin for a favor along the way: "Vlad, could your people come pick up every one of the Ukraine mafia (Nuland, Vindman, Farkas, ect.) and send them to Siberia?"

#10 I am still leaning more to the old DC Playbook.

When your failing at home, start a mini-war or conflict to draw attention away from a totally screwed up Economy, over spending and/or a politically mess.

How many years has The USA been at war since 1776?

Depending on who you ask and how they defined it.
The US has been engage US Troops about 92+/-% of every year we have existed.
