Will Trump and the EU turn things around?
@CaptainDeny, one of Ukraine’s most trusted military voices, doesn’t think so…
We discuss:
• How Russian glide bombs and drone swarms wiped out entire brigades
• Why Ukraine’s Patriot systems are nearly empty and running on scraps
• How U.S. Tomahawks can help but won’t turn the tide
• And what happens next if the West doesn’t escalate support immediately
Captain Deny warns the fall of Pokrovsk is a turning point, and the next few months will decide whether Ukraine stands or falls.

It is interesting how history repeats, the fall of avdiivka and Bakhmut were both the “end” of Ukraine, or equal to taking Berlin, and the nearly, almost, soon… fall of pokrovsk is claimed to be as well.
Pitin’s three day war is approaching the length of the entire “great patriotic war” and he still controls less of Ukraine than in March of 2022.
Ukraine has brought the war home to russia, and the Ukrainian strikes against energy infrastructure is creating severe problems for russia.
As you stated, Russia’s energy infrastructure is not only vulnerable to attack and disruption, the Ukrainians have been doing a good job and it is going to intensify and there is little pitin can do to stop it.
So you are now promoting YouTube “grifters”🤔
You told us that was wrong😎
Russian mir, from Russian papers
Good site to follow

“Russia has chosen war for another 20 years, I envy those hundreds of thousands who will die for the Motherland”
Philosopher Alexandr Dugin told us this, commenting on Vladimir Putin's statements about the Ukrainian conflict and our plans to continue the NWO. “I have already said that we will fight for another 18-20 years. President Putin confirmed my words. We are ready to fight these 20 years, the head of state has made a choice! It is clear that the next few years (and this, as the military say, at best) will go to Ukraine. But there are other enemies. The war will be terrible, hundreds of thousands will die. And they will find the best death in the world – to die for Russia, for the Motherland. God, how I envy them!” said Alexandr Gelevich.
He also announced “many decisions on Russia's transition to a military footing in the near future.” And he urged to believe him, because the philosopher's forecasts “are taken from the first persons of the state and are almost always confirmed.”

Dugin's wishes can easily be addressed.
Doesn’t make it wrong, he is reading Russian newspapers
Shooting the messenger not the message.
How about commenting on the content
Fully suppprt what the President said, posted by the guy who has repeatedly posted a meme showing President Trump giving the American people the finger🤔
True
They are being addressed, not sure Russian economy can survive 6 months let alone 20 years😂
Nothing stopping Gelevich from picking up a rifle and heading to the frontlines
Archpriest Konstantin Tatarintsev, who holds the position of First Deputy Chairman of the Russian Orthodox Church's Synodal Department for Interaction with the Armed Forces and Law Enforcement Agencies and Head of the Sector for Interaction with the Russian Aerospace Forces marks the birds to be destroyed by fire.
That’s quite the title, in keeping with long muskovite titles😎”Gott mit Uns”😂
Good thing he is not Russian or he would have a date with a window😎
