In the month of July, Russia has achieved gains that can not be reversed by Ukraine. This article shows Ukraine still talks of taking back Crimea, and the delusion they can win on the battlefield remains in the mind of the new commander.
The battlefield losses are exceeding 2,000 a day for Ukraine. In May Ukraine lost about 50,000 WIA/KIA, in June it was over 58,000 and July has already exceeded 65,000. Russia is now constantly moving and grinding down everything in it’s path. Russia has another 330,000 mem training for their December/January addition to the war effort. Not mentioned in the article is that Russia added over 300,000 new soldiers in July timeframe and 25% are headed to Syria and Africa.
On the diplomatic front, Ukraine has gone from Insulting China in May and June to begging Bejing for help to get negotiations with Moscow.
On the economic front, Ukriane continues mis-steps with cutting oil off to Hungry resulting in the blockage of electric from the EU to Ukraine by Hungry in response.
....and Russia has not declared War on the Ukraine.
Russia launched a special military operation
Russia has 2 goals, de-militarize The Ukraine and de-nazify The Ukraine
This talk is for the sole purpose of keeping the grift going, all on the backs of what remains of an entire generation of young Ukranian men. Out of all the foreign policy disasters given to us by Neocons, this has been the most grotesque.
