Sergei Lavrov warns geographical aims will move 'further from the current line' as military effort no longer focused only on eastern Ukraine Russia has abandoned its initial military "tasks" and will expand further into Ukraine if West continues to send more weapons, Vladimir Putin's foreign minister warned on Wednesday.
Sergei Lavrov said Russia is no longer focused “only” on eastern Ukraine and that Western military support for Kyiv had changed Moscow’s strategy.
It is the most senior acknowledgement yet that Russia is no longer fighting a limited war to defend the Donbas.
In his de-facto declaration of war on Ukraine on February 24, Putin insisted that "occupation of Ukrainian territory is not in our plans" and has since made no comment to the contrary.
After Russia’s invasion failed to capture the capital Kyiv and topple Ukraine’s government, the Kremlin announced in March it would refocus on capturing the Donbas region, where separatist Russian proxies have been fighting since 2014.
But Mr Lavrov said that Russia would once more widen its aims, despite Russian troops struggling to make ground in a grinding artillery war.
Western nigger woshippers need war because they sucked so much nigger cock their population started to look like unflushed shit. With war they hope the shitskins will leave Europe.

>In his de-facto declaration of war on Ukraine on February 24 Nope, its just raising the stackes. In response to new heavy weapons deliveries to khohols.
It's logical. Russians have no choice. They can and will stick a border around Donbass, but if rockets get lobbed across the wall (pro-tip: they will) then they're right back where they were 8 years ago, only with more Ukie firepower due to US weapons mail order catalogue. It will end up like Israel/Palestine with the same solution: make sure the Ukies only have rocks going forward and even then kill some every now and then because they sharpened them.

Yeah, all bark like he barked about South Ossetia, Crimea and Ukrainian atrocities in LPR and DPR.
Good. I hope they ruin Europe. FBI sucks my balls.
Jose Harris
Oh noes, more empty threats. I still wait to get nuked and cheer for nuclear holocaust. But with Russia - nothing ever happens. They never deliver. Such a waste of resources.
Wyatt Rodriguez
Same as US. What can US do? Print paper that's all.
Jace Campbell
Yeah russia has shown itself to be a master of modern war and easily capable of taking on dozens of other more powerful countries at the same time. As we all know a war on multiple fronts is always a good idea. Especially when greatly outnumbered in men and material in such a conflict.

I can't wait until we put all you guys into camps.

>>be Russian >>try to look strong >>fail miserably >>rest of the world laughs at you and ignores you until you do something really bad and then we will slice up Russia into an alpine version of Grande Europe x tyvm
