Ukraine has Lost any Prospect of ReCapture, and the War.
Guardian ^ | 7/25/2024 | Self

I know we will win – and how’: Ukraine’s top general on turning the tables against Russia, an Interview with Col Gen Oleksandr Syrskyi

Syrskyi is Ukraine’s new commander-in-chief. Two and half years into Vladimir Putin’s full-scale onslaught, he acknowledges the Russians are much better resourced. They have more of everything: tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, soldiers. Their original 100,000-strong invasion force has grown to 520,000, he said, with a goal by the end of 2024 of 690,000 men. The figures for Ukraine have not been made public.

Ukraine IS a sovreign nation. Putain took advantage of the human vegetable in the White House to murder, rape, torture there and destroy that country. If he succeeds there he WILL move into Eastern Europe, resurrect the Evil Empire and attack the west. He is a war criminal no better than Hamas and the Ayatollahs. WHY ANYONE WOULD QUOTE THAT COMMUNIST RAG “THE GUARDIAN” ON THIS FORUM EXCEPT TO ATTACK IT IS BEYOND ME.

The best thing is that he/it (not sure if that’s a human operated account) faked it. Just click the link.

I’m with you. If this were a real conflict basic military tactics should have been used like cutting off supply lines. Instead the EU kept buying Russian oil giving Russia resources to supply their MIC.
Now that Germany has cut their military budget and will no longer keep their promise to Ukraine, what will Biden do? If I were him I’d take the offer from Russia and declare he ended the war! Easy Peasy.

Jonty30 meant “Russian ethnics”, not ethics.

Then let the war continue. Ukrainians have a few more million disposable men. Russia might lose another thirty thousand.

Whether you take Putin’s word or not, that is why he is at war. Everybody else, except the Ukranians, are doing to launder money.

I suspect Pedo Joe's handlers will give that one to Kammy...she needs a big win and this is one they can hand to her on a silver platter.

As with a stopped clock, even the Guardian is correct occasionally. We lost Ukraine when we got ruled by a corrupt, inept, and loathsome DemocRAT party.

“ the invasion and annexation, by Russia, of peaceful, neighboring countries is pointless, painful, and will not be tolerated”

If what we have been told is going on in Ukraine is true, then Russia was right to go in there. If what we have been told about Ukraine is true, then many of the people in that region are Russian anyway. If what we have been told about the US Deep State is true then we have no business supporting Ukraine in this. At the moment, thanks to our oh-so-reliable media, it is difficult to be certain what is true. So far I have heard nothing to convince me Russia is the bad guy here. I know, I know, I was here through the Cold War. Based on what I know now, I don’t trust one word coming from our government, and that is discomforting.

Looking at maps of the area available online I was able to overlay maps from earlier months to a current map from July 25, 2024. The advance has been stalled or been been halted, there has been no change in lines in months even though there has been continued fighting alone a very long line across the country, no real progress has been made by either side.

“and also teaching Russia the valuable lesson that the invasion and annexation, by Russia, of peaceful, neighboring countries is pointless, painful, and will not be tolerated.”
It also taught Russia how to fight a modern conventional war.

Syrskyi has to lie. Ukraine has been killed by long range artillery, and bombs. Russia is only losing people when they make assaults. Ukraine is literally just sitting ducks waiting for death to overrun them.

“Russian ethnics”

So they keep bombing cities full of those “Russian ethnics” and fight the army made largely of Russian speakers and led by Russian general.

Gotta admit, Uke GloboHomoNazis are incredibly stupid, corrupt and greedy.

They could have had major economic and societal benefits and been an important and profitable part of the best energy market to serve the populations of European Nations in history.

All they had to do was to was NOT STEAL NATURAL GAS FROM THE RUSSIANS, just pass it on, at a reasonable Free Market price and profit, to the consumer nations.

Instead Ukes chose to invite the reward for Piracy: Death and a Borderland Wasteland.

You ascribe to the three monkies philosophy;)

Ukraine will collaspe militarily before winter. Will it be this summer or will they fall in Autumn? The writing is on the wall. The expedited destruction of Ukrainian frontline units has now reached their breaking points. They have little left to shift into the gaps or breach.

If you believe Ukriane they have destroyed the Russia Army 5 times over. If you believe Sireski, Russia has doubled their tank numbers at the same time they lost 3x those numbers.

Your point that Russia is being degraded is pure fantasy.

“That is where I see it going”

We get that you’re a proud Ukrainian nationalist, but we have a saying in the USA: “”Wish in one hand, sh!t in the other. See which fills up first”

This is ridiculous wishful thinking that Russia is just going to disappear. Ukraine’s other hope is for NATO (meaning the USA) to get involved and do it for them.
