 BF>>>> I just love Russian humour. During the darkest Stalin years, the
 BF>>>> jokes about him were legendary. And now it's Putin's turn: Putin,
 BF>>>> after 10 days of Kursk catastrophe, summons Stalin's ghost:
 BF>>>> Stalin: "What's happened?" Putin: "Nazis are at Kursk! My army is
 BF>>>> beaten! What should I do?" Stalin: "Do like me in 1943. Send the
 BF>>>> best Ukrainian troops to the front, and ask the US for arms!"
 ak>>> IMHO, this Ukraine invasion in Kursk region is politically
 ak>>> profitable for Putin. And in addition, Ukraine having extended the
 ak>>> front line will really suffer after Putin sends his troops to
 ak>>> Kursk region. However maybe, the current situation is more
 ak>>> profitable as it is. It justifies a lot of things in this war.
 AS>> No. Because civilians are not targeted, and there will be more
 AS>> russian conscripts to exchange (the main target of this invasion, I
 AS>> guess).
 ak> To lost thousands of troops for exchanging hundreds? ;-) It's a dubious
 ak> idea. I think the matter is more simple.

Doubt it. The "invasion force" is not so big. And if russian troops will leave occuppied Ukrainian territory to protect the regime...
