After the Ukrainian government, on order of the U.S., failed to make peace with Russia, the Russian president Vladimir Putin ordered his troops to 'de-militarize and de-nazify' the Ukraine. It then was obvious that the attrition of the Ukrainian army, not taking its land, was the main Russian plan.

The Ukrainian political and military command failed to correctly adopt to that. Instead of going into defense mode behind holdable lines it ordered its troops to attack Russian defense lines again and again. In consequence Russian losses were minimal while the Ukrainian losses exceeded all imaginations.

That this would end badly was quite predictable.

It is over. The Ukraine, and the powers behind it, have lost the war.

The Russian forces are now doing probing attacks along the whole frontline. Whenever a local Ukrainian local defense line will fail, which is just a question of time, they will break through and cover new grounds. Those drops leaking through will become a stream, then a river and a flood that will push the Ukrainian army into a full retreat.

The Uke marines trying to cross the Dnieper and establish a bridgehead are being shredded by FABs and barbecued by Russian TOS 1-A thermobaric weapons…I would guess they would not want their own troops in close combat in a killing zone

“ Russia immediately backtracked on a statement released on Monday that said some of its troops had withdrawn from a key position in Ukraine’s southern Kherson region, raising questions about the scale of Moscow’s operations in the area.”

When Ukraine starts using the M57 Block IA Unitary version of the ATACMS missile system it will put all of Crimea in range of attack and Crimea will be untenable for Russia.

Death is coming for Russia.

So you morons announced the war is over for Ukraine because Russia announced it was going to do a major withdrawal.

Sure keep chanting the same slogans even when facts are the opposite.

Why is it so important to you that Ukraine lose? It’s not The Ukraine, it’s Ukraine.
