They'll run at the first opportunityPutin has freed 28000 prisoners and is bussing them to the front to fight…. Could be a last stand if he is that desperate

then go back to russia and rape and murder againI would imagine a fair few would just desert.
Ok, my mate says that Putin has asked Erdogan to negotiate the withdrawal of Russian troops from all of Ukraine, including Crimea. Let's hope he is right. He says negotiations have started. Not sure what he is seeking in return for the withdrawal.
Erm, isn't that called surrendering?
Would be great if true, but that sounds like complete nonsense.
Well, I may be guilty of wishful thinking but he has been right about most things in this conflict so far.

As above, they've just announced that they're holding sham referendums in the invaded regions this week and are increasingly mooting mobilisation, there's next to no chance that Putin is trying to surrender at the same time.
Obviously it's amazing news if he was, but I very much doubt it.
Far too much pride, money and bodies invested now to give up what they're still holding, especially something that by their reckoning has been officially part of Russia for 8 years.
Putin would be ousted.
Putin has just met with Erdogan (and others) in Uzbekistan and Erdogan has just come out and said Putin is willing to negotiate and should give up all occupied Ukrainian territory.
It’s an odd thing to come out with at this time but Putin may be playing him… who knows after recent events? Putin still has a good few hawks that want mobilisation and the SMO to be declared a war, so a negotiated withdrawal will be hard to spin as a Kremlin victory, those hawks will be circling. I’d like to be hopeful of an end soon, it’s not hard to imagine either outcome potentially being the end of Putin.
