First I know little of the author, judging by his name I can assume pro-Russian. This is the 2nd video of his I’ve watched.

He claims Russ forces have essentially caught almost the entire Ukr Kursk incursion in a functional pocket. Not a true Cauldron yet the Ukrainian forces still have one major road open but it’s under Russian arty and drone fire.

6-10K Ukranian forces are in danger of complete encirclement. In WW2 the Germans were finally effectively knocked out by a giant encirclement by the Soviets named Bagration, in 1944. 300k or about 10% of Eastern front forces were destroyed (worse mostly German). Ukraine has somewhere around 300,000 (Grok says estimates are 200K to 500K) troops on the line so this would be closer to 3.5%.

We were told just last week that the Ukraine/NATO invasion into Kursk was a triumph.

I believe he was working on behalf of his European puppeteers. He went to ask the US for security guarantees, because they wanted the US to pay half the bill to secure Ukraine.

Wait, they haven’t made it to Moscow yet?

Is Putin dead from cancer and drunkenness yet?

Trump's assessment of Zelensky appears to be correct. Perhaps Zelensky is motivated by revenge. He wants Ukraine to recapture the Donbas and Crimea. We know that's not going to happen.

He’s working on behalf of the CIA, they got him many years ago. If there’s turmoil in the world, CIA is in on it and not in a good way.

You know who’s going to get blamed for this, right? It’s probably going to get blamed on Trump because of the intelligence blackout. Of course it isn’t but that won’t stop the left from saying so.

I watched him for a while, he’s in similar to several others, they get their info from both sides. I’ve seen estimates from 10,000 to 20,000 troops trapped so the number seems to be unknown but estimated.

Don’t forget that you can be put in jail if you call it a War in Russia. It’s a Special Military Operation. It’s duration will soon be longer than their Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945.

Zelensky is a puppet. He'll do what he's told. He was installed after the US destabilized the Ukrainian government. Now, Europe wants to send their white men to die in Ukraine, which will allow the invaders to go ahead and finish raping all their women.

This is being coordinated.

The people we can't criticize desperately want WWIII.

Who didn’t see that coming months ago.

Now maybe Mr Z will sue for peace.

And meanwhile, China is sitting back all innocent and quiet, while the globalists orchestrate the demise of Europeans via this proxy Ukraine war.....thus weakening Europe just like they were trying to weaken the USA. China is the real “coordinator” behind the scenes, I suspect.... happy to let the world point the blame finger at Russia,Russia,Russia.

“...maybe we will have an end to this in my lifetime...”

Not if there’s money to be made! I’m a Desert Storm Vet. THIRTY-TWO effing YEARS for that Middle Eastern disaster. And for WHAT? Ugh!

(I wasn’t there for 32 years, LOL!)
