July 1st
British Foreign Minister Liz Truss said that completely pushing Russian troops out of Ukraine is a real goal, reported The Guardian. “The entirety of Ukrainian territory that Russia has seized is illegally occupied. And, ultimately, the Russians must be pushed out of this entire territory,” Truss said. Asked whether the British government believed that Russia could be pushed out of all of Ukraine within a reasonable period of time, she said: “That is realistic, and that is why we are providing additional lethal aid.” Earlier, Britain announced £1B ($1.2B) of military support to Ukraine for strengthening Ukraine’s defensive capabilities, including air defense systems, unmanned aerial vehicles, and new electronic warfare equipment.

Sky News; July 1st:
Those left behind in Lysychansk disagree on who the aggressor is.
Three quarters of the city has been destroyed.
Liz “gets” it and makes a very clear statement: the only one acceptable under the terrible circumstances.
Sky News went to observe the devastation of Lysychansk and incredibly found some people who blame Ukraine. RuZZia is murdering its own supporters, yet still these halfwits blame Ukraine.
After the war, ALL putler-lovers will have to be expelled permanently.
And all Ukrainians illegally held by by nazi RuZZia will have to be returned.
That will be your swap. The innocents and the halfwits.
When you search for possible outcomes to this war, there are many theories to be found, from mafia land eventually taking Ukraine to Ukraine taking mafia land and every other possible scenario in between. I tend to go with the Ukraine retaking all its territory scenario, so I agree with this article.
If Ukraine receive enough weapons the theory will turn into reality. Once Ukraine get on the offensive, all those cities and towns destroyed by the orcs, will be of no use to them in a retreat.
But, those destroyed places make them feel right at home.
