Humiliated Putin will annex occupied Ukrainian regions in major speech TOMORROW – as his troops face 'imminent defeat' in key town amid rampaging Kyiv counter-attack

Vladimir Putin will formally annex occupied regions of Ukraine to Russian in a major speech tomorrow, the Kremlin has confirmed, as he attempts to regain the initiative after his forces suffered a humiliating rout earlier this month.

Putin's speech comes after Russian-backed proxy governments in Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions held sham referendums earlier this week on whether to go ahead with the move.

Armed Russian soldiers taking ballot boxes door-to-door left the results in no doubt, and Ukraine along with its Western allies have vowed not to recognise the results.

But it still marks a turning point in the war because it will allow PUTIN TO SPIN THE LIE to his own people that any attack on those regions is an attack on Russia itself - paving the way for him to escalate, possibly as far as using nukes.

Ukraine has vowed to defy that threat is continuing to attack into those regions today, with a key town in Donetsk now all-but surrounded.

Lyman, which sits close to the Donets river, is being flanked from northwest and southeast, with Kyiv's troops having cut off all escape routes bar one.

Putin's forces are facing 'imminent defeat' in the town which is a key supply hub for troops in the region.

Taking the town would clear the way for Ukraine to attack into neighbouring Luhansk province - which is almost completely under Russian control.

Putin maintains that the ultimate goal of his 'special military operation' is the liberation of both Donetsk and Luhansk, and defeats there would make it impossible to spin the war as a success.

It comes off the back of a devastating Ukrainian counter-attack east out of Kharkiv earlier this month that returned thousands of square miles to Kyiv's control and buckled Russia's frontline.

Key town?:) How is Kherson offensive be going?

[PGR88]

Humiliated?

[Fairhairedboy]

Give it a rest. Or join DU. They love Soros and the WEF.

There’s more than one “key town”.

I figure there maybe 5-6000 men in the Lyman pocket, with whatever equipment they have left. Not a bad haul.

Note that the Russian Telegram map shows Lyman is already surrounded. The Russian map is often ahead of the more conservative Ukrainian map.

[NorseViking]

We’ll see. The fact that they hold out for so long is by itself impressive.

Your own Pro-Russian military sources fear that the fall of Lyman will result in a second collapse of the front line. Luhansk, which is being defended by 60 year old conscripts wielding ww1 rifles, is in danger of being re-captured.

And as for Kherson, a day does not go by that some new settlement is taken or some new ammo depot or base is destroyed.

Ironically, the far left is actually in full agreement with you and is Pro-Russia/China, like many closet communists here on FR.

I will be announcing the annexation of Jekyll Island to the Kingdom of Moovova tomorrow.

British dreams. Good luck with that. 😂😂😂😂😂

Do you have any idea how overwhelmed the recruiting stations were a few days ago, all across Russia?

The west is clueless about the patriotism in Russia for the motherland.

Wading boots are required for these FR propaganda posts.

British dreams. Good luck with that.

You pack of idiots were claiming back in May or June that Russian forces in Lyman, Izium, and on the opposite side, were going to thrust forward and surround 30,000 Ukrainian troops and kill them all.

Today, Izyum belongs to Ukraine and Lyman, even according to Russian sources, is surrounded.

The west is clueless about the patriotism in Russia for the motherland.

Russia is a third world shithole masquerading as a world power. It's filled with degenerates who have even lower church attendance than countries like Norway and Sweden. Drugs, alcohol abuse, and mass corruption at every level of society is the norm. Vast portions of Russia do not even have toilets, with people commonly shitting and pissing on the underside of the stairs in their large, soviet era apartment blocs, with trash and sewage littering as far as the eye can see. Drunks can be seen passed out in the same filth.

This is the real Russia which you clowns have decided is some kind of nationalist utopia.

[caww]

Hard to imagine reporters think Putin is humiliated even a little bit. He's certainly going full tilt for his land-bridge after knocking out the Nazi elements - Just as he said he would do.

The Russians annex that territory you do know what happens do you not?

It becomes Russian, and they already said that ANY attack on Russian territory will result in radical response-including nuclear weapons.

Now that pig face pervert bidet has ordered and executed the sabotage of the pipeline in the North Sea, you most likely will get to see what you have been wishing and cheering for.

Hope you are prepared if you live on either coast. Best thing for you to do is bend over and kiss your ass good bye.

Name one? DU's position on Ukraine is exactly like the Soros/Zelensky/WEF loving Freepers like YOU. No difference. Your position is Biden's position. Right?

“We’ll see. The fact that they hold out for so long is by itself impressive.”

You then must also see as impressive Ukraine not only holding out for seven months against a larger and stronger Russia, but going on the offense to recover its previously lost territories, and succeeding.
