2 months agoI find Waze has better real-time traffic info. Driving time estimates may vary a bit more, but I find it to be a more than adequate replacement for most tasks.
You do have to gut check some of its suggestions, though: it seems to think some roads are slower, even when they’re not as busy, and will route around them.
Because Ukraine has effectively no negotiating power in this war without US support. They rely very heavily on the armaments provided by the United States over the last few years. If that support were to stop, the war would be over tomorrow, and Zelensky has said as much already.
I still think you’re right that the Ukraine should be the ones doing the negotiations though.
