> barbarism
I would say that's the level of people there, the darkest minds sovok can produce. But what would have happened with that Rittenhouse kid if he had not shot the blokes there? If I really want to cite an example. Because people will always find an excuse to abuse others.
Pro-Ukraine western media is quite hypocritical in this (too).
> may work as a decoy to smoke out air defenses
Do some relatively harmless stuff as bait for provoking reaction, observe it, make deductions, and build the gained info into the plans. It's a type of recon.
> Milanovic
While both in Croatia and here the President of the Republic technically is the high commander of the army, I doubt he gets alarmed by the military every time someone farts. What could Milanovic or Áder do anyway? Get an AK and shoot at the sky? I do really think NATO knew what's going on and decided it's mostly harmless. Then came morning and the people wanted answers. But the morning the prez just woke up too so he needed to get infos too. Then started the whole bs, because the only thing he could reply to the people was: we're looking into it, because that's what he did at the time. Milanovic asked the Croat military, they said this happened, came from Hungary, so he called Orbán asking what's up, and Orbán asked our military, and called back Milanovic and said this was up. Meanwhile they also called Iohannis in Bucharest and asked what's up and NATO HQ too with sames, and ofc Zelensky and Putin and Lukashenko (well probably not really them just ambassadors, who called back home too). There was a whole lotta phonecalls back and fourth and across, that took time especially when all sides take their time.
> put into question the continuation of ukr statehood"
They can install another govt and prez too.

> he could get immediately overthrown if the Ukrainian elite or military brass think they can still fight
That's the question if they still have any capabilities left. While not taking that Russian report here >>/47062/ entirely srsly, I have to assume Ukraine suffered high losses, especially in material/technical and logistical means.
> if he's getting harsh sanctions one way or another, he might as well push for the largest possible gains.
True.
