What is Sultan Erdogan prepared to do in this situation? Is he going to try and ingratiate himself to the west and U.S. by essentially providing the assistance that Ukrainian government has asked? Which means an escalation to this situation that will invite a response from Russia.

Sultan Erdogan is politicking right now to extract something of value from 2 factions. This dude is slimy and unscrupulous. He's never to be trusted.

Doesn’t the Montreaux Treaty allow Turkey to deny passage to warships of nations at war?

The best Ukraine could try, now, is to race whatever armor they have, west of the Dniepr, to try and pressure the rear and flank of the Russian armored column bearing on their Capital from the west.

Is there a Ukrainian Patton or Rommel?

Wouldn't they be blown to bits, that tank column by the Russian jets?

Remember that war in Georgia? I think it was that war.

There was this tunnel through through a mountain. They did not exploded it to collapse.

The Russians drove over 100 tanks through the tunnel, and won that brief skirmish.

Both sides used the air force, but Russia came out on top with overwhelming force.

It's odd. Recent history just repeating itself here.

Once that amour starts rolling, then they have a plan. Even running away is a plan. Hiding in the city to eventually starve, not really a plan.

Well, it would be foolish to run a column of tanks in broad daylight! But, spread out and running at night, it would depend on their initial positioning.

They’ve got to respond to that Russian column somehow. However, it might be too late, now!
