The Israel-Gaza war is “taking away the focus” from the conflict in Ukraine, the country’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has admitted.

He said this was “one of the goals” of Russia, which launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

And he denied that fighting in Ukraine had reached a stalemate, despite a recent assessment to this effect by the country’s top military general.

Ukraine’s counter-offensive in the south has so far made little headway.

This has prompted fears of war fatigue among Kyiv’s Western allies, with suggestions of growing reluctance in some capitals to continue giving Ukraine advanced weapons and funds.

    If you think this is bad, just wait until China goes for Taiwan. “Like butter that has been scraped over too much bread.”

          Let us know by what time you think China will invade Taiwan.

          When that year comes and the invasion doesn’t happen, either admit you’re wrong or double-down.

              I don’t care what he said.

              How much time needs to pass before you admit you’re wrong?

                    Generally speaking, you should consider that some of them are actually bots/shills sowing unrest to shape a narrative.

                    Okay. 10 years. 20? How much time needs to pass before you admit when you’re wrong?

                    When do you think China is going to invade Taiwan? 1000 years from now? Lol.

                Wow, you didn’t just move the goal posts, you shipped them cross state.

                And that ratio, yikes!

                    Dang, you’re really dedicated to this.

                    It’s called normal scrolling, and seeing your next comment.

                    Lol, gonna block you now. Getting annoying seeing you reply to all my posts.

                    Actually, this is not the first time you told me you were blocking me. Please try to get it right this time.

                    If you can’t handle disagreement with your opinions, move on, or stick your head in the sand, aka block.
