If it comes down to a street fight in Kyiv - My money will always be on Vitali. Especially if his brother's at his side.

Yes, they are defending the city together. You definitely don't lose your money :)

There are reports of civilan areas being bombed

We see that the Russians are changing their tactics every day. On the first day, there were missile strikes across Ukraine to intimidate, followed by a full-scale offensive by countless troops. They expected us to lay down our arms.

When that didn't work, they focused on storming Kyiv.

When they could not take Kyiv, it turned out that they did not even envisage such an option. They ran out of fuel and began serious logistical problems. Some columns of armored vehicles were stopped by people who went out on the road and blocked it without weapons.

The Russians then moved on to bomb civilian facilities, critical infrastructure and urban sleeping areas. This tactic is not new to them. They used it in Chechnya, Donbass in 2014 and Aleppo in Syria. This tactic is aimed at breaking the resistance of the population, to intimidate it. That the people put pressure on the government to make any peace on any terms.

doing the right thing 28 years ago

Our example was a failure of the nuclear disarmament program. No country will ever give up nuclear weapons in exchange for unsubstantiated guarantees. Western countries are to blame for the failure of this program. Giving guarantees, you need to make efforts to implement the agreements. Everyone forgot about the Budapest Memorandum, because it was so convenient.

At present, 100% of people in Ukraine regret that we have given up nuclear weapons.
