Whatever Russia does, except going nuclear, isn't going to prevent recovery of Donbas by Ukraine, slowly but surely.

Going nukelar only guarantees Russia's exit from Ukraine including Crimea by force. A week of NATO airstrikes and Ukraine will walk into Crimea without a fight. US is prepared for that they have the aircraft and missiles/ships 24hours away from getting into position to strike.

India abstains on UNSC resolution condemning Russia’s ‘referenda’ in Ukraine
Sriram Lakshman, OCTOBER 01, 2022
India was ‘deeply disturbed’ by the recent events in Ukraine, India’s U.N. Ambassador Ruchira Kamboj said
India was among four countries that abstained on a draft resolution at the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) condemning the so-called referenda organised by Russia across four regions of Ukraine. Hours before Friday afternoon’s voting in New York, Russian President Vladimir Putin “annexed” four regions inside Ukraine’s internationally recognized borders ¬ Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Luhansk and Donetsk ¬ based on the results of Russian-organised referenda in these regions.
The UNSC resolution, sponsored by the United States and Albania, failed to pass the 15-member Council on Friday afternoon, despite winning ten supporting votes, after Russia used a veto to block it. A similar resolution is likely to be introduced in the U.N. General Assembly – where Russia does not have a veto - in the near future.
The resolution condemns the referenda , calls on the international community not to recognise any alterations to Ukraine’s territory and calls for Russia to withdraw its forces from Ukraine. The other abstaining countries at Friday’s voting were China, Brazil and Gabon.
India abstained on the resolution “keeping in view the totality of the evolving situation” , its Permanent Representative to the United Nations (UNPR), Ruchira Kamboj said. Other countries abstaining were China, Brazil and Gabon.
India was “deeply disturbed” by the recent events in Ukraine, Ms. Kamboj said, as she explained India’s abstention vote and called for an immediate cessation of violence.
Call for negotiations
“We’ve always advocated that no solution can ever be arrived at the cost of human lives,” she said.
The path to peace involved dialogue and keeping open diplomatic channels, Ms. Kamboj said, as she repeated Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s message to Russian President Vladimir Putin, that now as not the era for war.
She said the global order was based on the U.N. Charter, international law and the respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity.
An escalation in rhetoric was not in anybody’s interest, Ms Kamboj said, as she stressed the importance of returning to negotiations.

I read that France has decided not to supply these guns to Danes to be handed over to Ukraine.

Such a decision can only have been taken with the agreement of the Danish government.

From Tom Cooper:
Seems, Lyman and - especially - Zarichne (that's a link to one of two bridges blown up by the Russians on withdrawal) was a true 'massacre' of the VSRF, Bars and Separatists. Have seen another few videos: the entire side of the Centralna Vulica of Zarichne is littered with bodies... bodies, and more bodies... at least one entire Spetsnaz group was eliminated to the last, too. Russian RUMINT is indicative of about 2,500 KIA in Lyman, Zarichne etc... of course, 'is no problem', no matter how many...

...word is that Ukrainians are meanwhile entering Kremina - and that after constructing another pontoon bridge on the Siversky Donets, south of the town.... They have definitely cut off the highway to Svatove (northwards from Kremina) and some of Russian bloggers are already questioning the ability of what's left of the 20th CAA to stabilise the situation in that town.

I can only hope and pray that Russian establishment come to their senses and help in alleviating the tensions by pulling out of Ukraine. Ukrainian authorities also need to be CIVIL and not loose the sight of humanity, civilization, peace and good health for all. This is best outcome everybody can have without breaking current international borders. Hope peace returns and no WAR.

That's the problem with dictatorships - when looking for 'good sense', if it's absent from the dictator, then good sense is gone.
