The White Guard Is a Great Mobilization Device

i can't imagine under any circumstance how russia would pull its troops out without that as a bare minimum, do you? I don't see how he survives it otherwise. It doesn't seem like the division between kiv and countryside around it, which was worth killing over in bolgakov's day, even exists any more. If you're not moving very fast and you still see your president being defiant, you're going to keep your head down for longer. i think he's starting to prepare them for a potential peace deal that might come. And it seems like if there's a peacea, there can't be peace without that, i don't you.
