I know I'm late but since the only response was basically a joke here's a DOD report on it from 2021. It's pretty short and not too sweaty. I couldn't link directly to the PDF but if you copy a m d paste it it should work

  • Russia is using Belarusian territory to invade Ukraine.
  • Ukrainians are bolstering their defences between Belarus and Kiyev to prevent previous year scenario.
  • Russian puppet in Belarus claims that Ukrainian defensive tactics "imposes a risk for Belarus"... 🤦 Yeah - if russian army wouldn't be able to invade Ukraine then that will probably just take over Minsk and enact Belarus as their own Oblast.

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 86%. (I'm a bot)


> Belarus allowed Russia to use its territory as a launch pad for the invasion of Ukraine a year ago, and President Alexander Lukashenko said last week it was ready to do so again.

> Kyiv has voiced concerns for months that Belarus could join the war on Russia's side, a potential threat that has forced it to divert troops to defend the north of Ukraine while waging war with Russia in the east and south.

> On Monday, President Joe Biden made a surprise visit to Kyiv to send a message of the United States' "enduring support" for Ukraine and announce further military aid for the army of Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

I've been an environmental science teacher for 20 years. Just mentioning limiting meat consumption or any other mild reduction of modern convenience, the students(now adults) would become visibly angered/incredulous. Shout "No way!".

I worked in US and Asia. Very few can imagine doing with less. I know corporations pollute far more than individuals. That's mentioned often, but those corporations are made up of people.
