Not much info on both of them, unfortunately, but I think:This reminds me of when Hitler pressed Mussolini to declare war on Russia and send troops. The ARMIR did not do well at all, getting massacred. By the time Italy withdrew from Russia in 1943 they'd lost 114,520 of the original 235,000 soldiers, including their general, Paolo Tarnassi.
Belarus will do no better, and would be smarter to just wait this out.

Then I suggest the Kerch bridge be hit multiple times and irretrievably dropped, this very night."The attacks are repeatable. We have no limitation on distance and soon we will be able to reach all targets inside Russia — including in Siberia,"

Lukashenko has a path. Retire, announce that you're passing the torch and call new elections. Hit the beach. He hasn't hit Ceauşescu levels of unpopularity yet and will survive just fine.Lukashenko is is a very tight spot: follow Kremlin orders and be deposed, or ignore Kremlin orders and lose the only patron he has and face the Belarusian public by himself, and still probably lose office.

Remember, Putin heroically intervened in Ukraine to kill Nazis and stop their biological killing machine.Got to love this. Putin says the risk of nuclear war is rising but that Russia won't attack first.
Putin: Nuclear risk is rising, but we are not mad
The Russian leader insists his country would only use its nuclear arsenal in response to a strike.www.bbc.com
If the risk of nuclear war is rising, what and/or who is stoking the escalation? Is it Ukraine (which doesn't have nuclear weapons)? Is it NATO (which is an avowedly defensive organization)?
The amount of spin Putin and his cronies can apply makes me wonder if they're secretly cricket aficionados. Their (message) delivery certainly bamboozles me!

Agreed. It will be bad for Putin when Ukrainian-built suicide drones and missiles start dropping across Russia. It can't be long before Ukraine strikes SPB or Moscow. How will Putin react then?he's starting to realize the enormity of his mistake, but knows he doesn't have the ability to undo it.
