lol. ok, so when russia is not advancing, they are at least “repelling counterattacks”. but how it is possible that ukraininen are able to make counterattacks? according to sf propaganda, all ukrainiens are already dead multiple times, zelensky is desperate, new conscripts are not available and afu is on full scale retreat. it must be some trick.

these counterattacks are fake. it would be bad for russia to admit they are not advancing because ukrainien are good prepared, protected with the minefields, trenches, anti tank ditches, radars and missiles in the kursk. and the high command of russian forces probably decided to postpone start of kursk operation to march -april 2025 as the cold weather is not appropriate for large logistic operations. that would only confirm that the russians are completely incompetent.

the russians are “competent” their own way. they are waiting for another season of conscripts, because putin has already killed everything he has got this year. they recruit 150,000 conscripts four times a year, and probably no one will make it home alive, so they try to negotiate some more cannon fodder with north korea. but it cost them money, and putin doesn’t have enough money to pay for that. so they postponed everything and wait for fresh meat to be ground in kursk

JackSparrow

russians recruit 150k conscripts 2 times a year. it means 300k soldiers per year from the 1,5 million pool. not all are dead on arrival, some of them make to survive 2nd year.. so realistically, putin will not have to draft north korean soldiers earlier then in 6-7 years of his “special operation”. in 6-7 years, there is chance that even such an asshole as putin will make it to dnieper which can serve as natural obstacle preventing imminent nato invasion and reduce russian casualties.

JackSparrow

as putin is quite old, he has good probability to die in kremlin a natural death and end up in a gilded coffin in the kremlin wall, with the vast majority of the russian nation seeing him as a demigod, just as they have established it in north korea. maybe they will introduce mandatory mourning in russia and policemen would check on the streets if everyone was crying and tearing hair. anything is possible in russia.

_tom sawyer_

they could die together – putin and kim. this would save some funeral costs. hmm. maybe putin could give kim another russian limousine and kim could take him on a trip to test the brakes. at least the writers in the west would finally have a proper story

MacZ

because kursk, since it failed at its initial objective, is a pr operation now. zelensky is sending all its reserves there because he cannot accept public defeat. ukrainians are dying so that zelensky looks good. while the russians are advancing everywhere else.

i heard a completely different story, about the relatively small 20,000 ukrainian contingent, which killed about 10,000 russians in a surprise attack, took 350 square miles in no time, forced 100,000 civilians fled with their lives, leaving everything behind. then all russian attempts to repel the attack failed, and now the ukrainians have an advantage in defense. but you can believe what you want. maybe putin will hire baba yaga and trample ukrainian soldiers with a house on a chicken’s leg

MacZ

so why have the russian taken back 50% of the territory conquered if all russian attempt at reconquest failed ? and why are the russians advancing everywhere else if the ukrainians are so good at creating defenses ? your theory makes no sense. but it is usual with the west/ukrainian propaganda : completely inconsistent, completely unbelivable. and that’s why it always end in smearing and desperately trying to confuse things.

Rusty Ruskie

why they fed ukraine since ussr collapsed, why they bribed all the politicians, why they gave them natural gas for free? to lose it in maidan coup ? russians are simply imbeciles, always asking the wrong questions. ok, now 1 million russian will die to fight back what they gave up without fight. or better to say. they will get ruins of the former eastern part of ukraine.

MacZ

sure, buddy, sure. ukraine is now on a path to complete disapperance. it will not recover demographically because their leaders are morons and took refuge on the titanic. superior people for sure.

Little Voices

in fact, russians are doing it to please western “partners” . that’s their characteristic. they still need to prove something to themself and please someone.

i also noticed nato supplies a lot of drones and together with endless cannon fodder kursk is still a big fish to catch. but the cutting of nato supply lines kicks in soon and all will be over before the new year✌️🫶💪

how could we characterize the performance of the ukrainian military since 2014? are they poised to drive the russsians from donbas soon? reckon the ukrainians will be in crimea by summer?

Edgar Zetar

trump’s offer is going to the history as the minsk accords vol. iv.
but putin and lavrov are stupid enough to consider it worthy of approval.

TomSawyer

putin is trying everything to get kursk back before trump’s inauguration but is miserably failing 🇷🇺=🤡 😆😆😆

why would the russians be influenced by trump’s inauguration ? it’s west propaganda fantasy, like 50,000 troops offensive and north korea troops. trump’s inauguration will make no difference whatsoever. the usa is far from being all powerful, whatever their leaders delude themselves with.

how in the actual hell can russia not cut their enemies supply lines in their own damn country.

how the hell is it that after years of war, the ukranians still have a functioning infrastructure, roads, dams, power stations, bridges, etc?

after years, those in kiev are still going to bars and restaurants living it up.

given that the ukrainians claim to be fighting for the existence of their state, you might ask them why they’re still going to bars and restaurants living it up.
