You seem to be confusing the situation with Russian troops with the Ukrainians.

Right now close to 1500 Russian soldiers are either dying or being seriously wounded every day. Many of them lack training and are thrown into "meat assaults" to capture a few hundred yards of some farm field.

In 2024 Ukraine has captured more territory in Russia than the Russian army has captured in Ukraine.

“In 2024 Ukraine has captured more territory in Russia than the Russian army has captured in Ukraine.”

Who the hell cares? The point of the article is this trivial territorial gain you’re bragging about isn’t worth the cost. You must be another one of those proud, arrogant Ukrainian nationalists infesting this forum.

Hey Babushka Bob, What's up?

Not a good sign when you've lost the normally Youke cheerleading, leftist/globalist organ "The Economist."

Youcrayne - Electrical grid: Destroyed. Town after town: Destroyed: ~A million Youke men and boys: Killed and maimed. A quarter of Youcrayne's population: Left and never to return. Youcrayne's "government": broke and kept afloat only by Americans' tax dollars. Youcrayne's GDP: Essentially nonexistent. (No, bribery, grift, proceeds from human trafficking etc. and cash/bling from wholesale corruption doesn't count toward GDP.) I could go on and on. . .

SLAVO U CRAYKNEE!!!™

Bob

The phrase “meat grinder” regards Ukraine was also coined by the Russians, then copied by the Ukrainians and western MSM, and since we have near total censorship of Russian media (~40 outlets) in our mind that too is ours.

Not sure if you’re aware of what Ukrainian casualties look like, but since their failed major counter offensive of 2023, it’s not pretty.

Idiots always talk about land. Russian’s simply focus on wiping out the AFU. To be fair, Ukraine is losing 2500 men a day, sometimes north of 3000. Their military is down to 400k from 1.2m 2.5 years ago. Russia is up to 1.4m with another 350k arriving in January 2025.

Kursk has cost Ukrane 500 men a day and 1800 vehicles. The west has money and can print even more, but they cannot find military equipment and transport for the AFU.

Ukraine is running out of men. Russia simply kills all of them that stay on the line of contact. Russia only moves forward taking land once Ukraine runs out of men. Ukraine will have not defenses in the soft underbelly all the way to Poland - they are forward deployed and once those on any front line are gone, they are dead. Ukraine cannot continue to hold Russia back.

Biden simply wants Ukraine to last until Janaury 2025. Biden already lost the war.
