Ukraine Targeting Kursk and Seizing Sudhza With Its Natgas Pipeline to EU

 

The damages caused in the Ukraine Russian war have largely been confined to Ukraine
Where Russian drones, missiles and shells on Ukraine’s cities and town have rained
The news today is that Russia is now on the receiving end
In a wider spreading of hostilities and damages trend
Kursk, the site of one of the Soviet’s decisive victories in the Great Patriotic War,
Has seen near it military casualties and damages to military targets soar
Russia whose economy largely of oil and gas consists
Now has Ukraine troops occupying Sudhza where natural gas to the EU begins to transit
Fears that damage to the pumping stations and pipeline have already caused natural gas prices in the EU to soar
Curtailing gas deliveries to the EU would have economic consequences Putin  could not long ignore
From the autocrats supporting the “military action” to the ordinary Russians the consequences of both segments will abhor
A good chance this will be a déjà vu of the Russian Afghan War
But we are hobbled with a senile Commander in Chief who is AWOL and weak
And the Word Salad Queen who has only time to a victory in November seek
Her lack of competence  in dealing with Russia reeks
Unless Trump wins the chances of an early peace being achieved are too bleak
