Russia Pundit Gives Rare Public Damning Assessment of Ukraine War
Newsweek ^ | 5/16/2022 | ADAM STATEN

A Russian columnist recently appeared on television and gave a damning assessment of the situation in Ukraine from Russia's perspective.

Mikhail Kodaryonok was on a Russian-state-owned television channel Monday as part of a panel where he discussed the situation in Ukraine and the rather dire circumstances in which Russia finds itself.

"But the situation from the overall strategic position is that the Ukrainian armed forces are able to arm a million people. They're saying it themselves, that 'for us, there's no difficulty mobilizing a million people.' The whole issue is to what extent they're able to supply this army of modern weapons and military hardware.

This (along with the myriad of frontline news coming in these days looking very positive for UKR in Donbas) is bound to disappoint not a few Freepers here on this thread, and indeed one can already hear the wailing and whimpering in Moscow, Teheran, Havana, Pyongyang, Caracas and all over the Russian Satellite Network across the globe for their imperialist foolishness.

Propaganda

Mikhail Kodaryonok is part of the corrupt Western Media funded by George Soros, The Rothchilds, and The Queen of England.

Their aim is to prop up a corrupt Ukraine and put something in KFC chicken that makes you crave it fortnightly.

He works for Russian State TV channel Russia One. He’s a Putin loyalist who sees the writing on the wall.

Putin’s “way out” may be to put all the blame on advisors who (allegedly) misled him.

Q: why did the russian chicken cross the road?

A: out of shame, to put some distance between itself and this clusterfuck of a special military operation.

As opposed to, of course, say, the uncorrupt media of the former Soviet Union. Yeah. Right. Got it. Check.

You apparently have not read my many posts on Red China for two decades here on FR. Lol. You can be excused if there is another “AmericanInTokyo”. I won’t even ask for an apology for that rude, baseless nonsense.

“Your chink buddies”. Please explain what you mean by that. No, seriously. I’d like to hear your evidence. You have no concept how anti-PRC we are here in Japan, self -included. Sheesh. Delusionary.
