I would have liked to read about Russian morale, organization, and logistics as well, but overall a good summary
for his own political reasons
You mean the continuation of the Ukrainians as a people unto themselves with the right to self-determination?
What self-determination? They’re a US/NATO vassal at best now.
Ok.
You realize that it’s Ukraine that banned Russian language in their country, right? Russia hasn’t banned shit about Ukraine and its culture.
Russia has been abducting and reeducating Ukrainian children since they took Crimea in 2014. Also, Ukraine isn’t the one invading anyone.
When Russia is moving kids from warzones into Russia, why is the operative word “into” and not “warzones”?
Or do you think they should stand and die to cluster munitions like true slava ukraini patriots?
Please explain why you think sending a big chunk of Ukraine’s best troops to open a front in another country that they will almost assuredly eventually lose, all while Ukraine is currently losing ground on fronts within their own borders, ostensibly helps continue “Ukrainians as a people unto themselves with the right to self-determination”?
It’s called tactics! I’ve played Risk a bunch of times, and everyone knows you plow through north Asia, then try to sneak a bunch of troops in to hold Australia or South America until the end of the game. By expanding the size of the front, you always get a huge advantage over your better supplied and more heavily armored opposition.
Also, it makes for some AMAZING HEADLINES as NAFO liberals get gassed up on the idea of Ukrainian troops marching into Moscow before winter.
I’m not a military strategist. I’m not gonna weigh in on that. But I’m not about to tell folks how to defend their homes in the face of an invader.
Well that sucks, because that’s what article is about.
It’s literally not. That’s one argument they make, but the article is about the West pressuring Ukraine to continue fighting. I’m fairly certain they’d continue fighting regardless.
Okay, the 30 paragraphs about the military situation must’ve been a typo then.
I’m fairly certain they’d continue fighting regardless.
As insurgents, maybe. I doubt they’d be sending cruise missiles over the border if the US wasn’t passing them out.
lmao
