Analysis: Whilst Ukraine have successfully kept their defence lines intact, Russia has in one weak significantly tightened the gap.
Those retreating troops are not regular Orc forces, but forced conscripts - men dragged off the street and taken to the front. The regulars are gone - location not yet known
You continue the nuclear bluff babble
You are in bed with Kin jon Ung who babbles on and on about his missiles
Worry worry worry about spending money. Nonsense
USSR is gone, Russia is failing again.......
“This propaganda is straight out of the bowels of the Deep State.”
A people’s right to self-determination is fundamental. You’re making noise to excuse the actions of a thug.
I think it is a possibility that nukes could be used. I don’t think that consider is just babble.
Not in Eastern Ukraine though...Lviv maybe, or eastern Poland.
Thank you
Putin doesn’t want to admit his 3 day special operation is now a war he is losing, he wants yo take Russia down with him
With Nuland,Kristol and Keane involved here, ISW is the closest thing to an official mouthpiece for Uke propaganda.
What they don’t mention is that the Rus withdrawal from Kharkov has duped the the Ukies into giving up their advantageous artillery spotter positions in tall buidings there. Rus lured the ukes to move artillery closer to the front lines so now they can’t shield them at hospitals,schools,and residential areas which limited Rus strike capability as they try to avoid civilian collateral damage. Now that Uke artillery has been lured out, the Rus can shell them more efficiently.
“”Remember the Cold War myth that Russian soldiers were indomitable 10-feet-tall super-warriors? Afghanistan and now Ukraine put the lie to that notion.””
I don’t remember such a thing but I do remember the numbers facing us, incredibly massive numbers of men and weaponry.
And with the proper amount of readiness, strong leadership and a military second to none, we faced down the USSR into nonexistence by 1991.
Ha! Very good!
“...lack of access to Western technology to pump harder-to-recover oil and enhance production from maturing wells will hit Russia’s oil industry not only in the near term but also in the long term, analysts say.”
In the long run this is probably the most self-destructive aspect of Putin’s great Ukranian adventure. The countries and businesses that could help Russia sustain a decent existance will be very cautious about reengaging in that country even if Putin should suddenly relent, retire, or disappear.
“...Rus withdrawal from Kharkov has duped the the Ukies into giving up their advantageous artillery spotter positions in tall buidings there.”
Why would Ukes give up advantageous artillery spotter positions? Why couldn’t they use telescopes to spot Russian concentrations that would now be further away and unable to shell the city as much? Since when has the Rus strike capability been trying to avoid civilian collateral damage? Most indications are that they LOVE civilian collateral damage as they have achieved so much of it.
“Rus withdrawal from Kharkov has duped the the Ukies into giving up their advantageous artillery spotter positions in tall buidings there”
You mean like the sneaky Russian plan to lose thousands of troops, including the front line paratroopers as well as hundreds of tanks, armed personnel carriers and the flag ship Moskva, all in a “feint”??
No, the Russians lost kharkiv and they are retreating haphazardly.
What is that adm Smith operative on this thread...
I don't think he is on this thread. He appears to primarily post UK stuff favoring Ukraine. The intel reports are taken from Ministry of Defence (UK) on twitter.

On this matter, UK intel is worth about as much as the opinions of the heads of 17 US intel agencies.
I’ve not in my life seen propaganda of this scale in my lifetime
Vietnam coverage before Tet was nothing like this as I recall as a lad at the dinner table in our tiny den
