Vlads artillery non stop for two days obviously was targeting massed Ukie forces…they may have had a chance- I expect big changes in the next few days…either Ukies end up retreating again after getting sucked in or they actually gain back some territory ( which they can’t hold).

Vlad laying down the artillery, massive. Vlads meat grinder at work. Do explore the live interactive map for current reports, losses, gains, etc…
Agreed. The Ukies have been unable to hold any territory that they have attempted to regain. They simply can not withstand Ivan’s brutal artillery attacks, 24/7, 70,000-200,000 rounds a day.
Being very familiar with Ivan, the west simply does not understand Vlad will NEVER give up any ethnic Russian territory he has taken. His citizens back him, his Congress backs him, and much of the world does not denounce his actions ( for fear of being cut off from his huge wealth, energy, food, etc).

I do know IF Vlad decides to mobilize his military ( they have not), his 1.5 million + man army which is solely reserved for any NATO attacks, then there will be all hell breaking loose.
Until then, we can watch Vlad methodically take, incrementally, all the Russian areas of Ukraine he desires, and the EU and West simply can not stop him. Vlad currently holds all the cards.
