LOL you like repeating all the Russian lies

gee, if everything is tilted so much in Russia’s favor, why is the war now in its 17th month, with still no end in sight?

This was a fake coup designed to:
1) Show Putin who is disloyal to his regime,
2) provide a pretext for Putin to declare martial law, and
3) dissolve Wagner into the regular Russian army.
If Prigozhin had wanted to start a civil war, he would have remained in the South and declared a new state. An army on trucks going to Moscow without an air force is not believable.

Ha ! It was not much of a military coup. No shots were fired by either side.

I think it was a ruse and it worked perfectly.

It worked because the warmongers in Washington DC WANTED TO BELIEVE it was coup by Wagner. When people truly believe in a fairy tale, you can play them like a fiddle.

What was Prigozhin going to do when he got to Moscow?

If he was truly a threat, his troops would have certainly been attacked by the Russian army.

As Sun-tzu correctly stated, “All warfare is deception.”

“...Putin’s popularity is overrated...”

That’s exactly what this little “coup” was for. It makes Putin the victim of such a vile group turning on this poor sick man that has done so much for that country. Less than a year after the war is over he’ll be the darling of his country and most of the world.

Russia “Slowly bleeding” ….. to add 400,000 new troops this year

Meanwhile the US and NATO have dumped arms and cash into Ukraine in the past 15 months alone, that is greater cost than the entire Russian defense budget

NEWS UPDATE RUSSIAN REINFORCEMENTS EARLY MORNING JUNE 25

A news getting lost in the wake of the Wagner excursion to Rostov and towards Moscow yesterday was Russian news of new reserve units/armies. Since February more than 150 000 new professional soldiers has joined the ranks of RuAF according to official Russian sources. Presently about 1300 new professional soldiers sign on each day. Some of these are former soldiers rejoining and some are new ones.

Most of these new soldiers has not been sent to the front but are used to form a new army and a new army corps. The new army consists of 2 or 3 army corps so all in all there will be 3 or 4 new army corps with up to 150 000 men and at least 500 tanks. Earlier I’ve heard reports of RuAF organising 2 new attack army corps. I don’t know if those are the same as the new ones.

But this means that RuAF are organising an attack force of at least 3-4 army corps intended for counterattacking Ukrainian breakthroughs or making their own offensives into Ukrainian territory.

The high numbers of new Russian professional soldiers (30-40 000/month) compensates easily for losses on the battlefield. It also makes another round of mobilisation unnecessary. If recruitment continues at present speed, around 400 000 new soldiers will join RuAF in 2023.

Wrong. WE solely responsible for this war when we set off a civil war in Ukraine by fomenting the Ukrainian revolution. Lindsey Graham, John McCain and Victoria Nuland along with the CIA were setting it off.

The Russians multiple times sought peace -- with the Minsk Accords, in 12/21 when they came to us with their security concerns and with peace talks in Turkey last March.

Because the biggest single thing Putin Definitely underestimated was the overwhelming scheming and massive overt support of the west.
Fake coup. No way would that guy be allowed to just move two another country and live a wonderful life. And the whole “coup” was over before it even really got started. There is something else going on, the “coup” was just the “Look over there!” setup.

Russia invaded Ukraine.

That’s how the war started.

Now FSB/Putin have staged a Drama play to redeploy Prigoshin’s forces into Belarus from which to launch further attacks.

It wont work there either.

Stalemate doesn't count if you are losing thousands of soldiers. Ukraine is trying to round up another 100k victims for their proxy war. This so called stalemate is costing them a lot of soldiers. Time for the Canadian brigade to volunteer for the proxy war.
