Now, if you have a problem with a specific country policy, may it be foreign or domestic, there are generally official channels you can use to voice your concern. Participate in your democracy, if you have one, if not, I'm sorry for you but know that you have my support to make your dictature great, for once, by destroying it and joining the free world.

There is only one bridgehead in Krynky and it is just a PR stunt by Ukraine cuz it makes no sense, Ukraine lost thousdands of Marines trying to hold Krynky, Russian artillery and FPV drones directly hit Ukranian positions and even their boats when they try to cross the river. One Ukranian soldier said that his superiors told them that attack and the enemy will run away. However that was not the case. He said that the Russians exactly knew where to find them and hit them.
