Ukraine needed the Kursk offensive because they haven't triggered a huge PR since the Kharkiv offensive in 2022. The Western backers have run out of patience for results in Ukraine. As the experts say, this Kursk offensive likens to the Battle of the Bulge in WW2 where Germans counter-attacked just for PR and then lost big time and never recovered.
I don't think that's the complete story. Trump said that Ukraine must enter peace talks or he'll stop sending support. So the Ukrainians needed something to bargain with heading into those talks.
I don't really get the PR argument every single successful military is good for PR like the kharkiv counterattack why would you need a full blown military operation for PR purposes only? when you can launch a successful military with an actual objective which is already good for PR I feel like people who said the Ukraine special military operation in Kursk "is only for PR" don't know what they are talking about
Yes but that was 80 years ago. Weather and a crazy leader were a big part of the nazi failure. Things have changed and there is no allied forces nipping at the back side if a force went into Russia now. Having said that I think it would be crazy for the allies to do that due to the cost for both sides on so many levels. Right now it is time for Ukraine and Russia to come to a peace. Yes Russia will get to keep a piece of Ukraine but Ukraine will get to join Nato and be fully protected into the future.
Nazis were fighting 4 empires in multiple front Soviet empire , British Empire , French Empire and Yankee Empire, the Austrian pinter is the one to blame for such defeats not the Russian capabilities
And Russia got his ass kicked during that whole process. The Sovjet Union is dead and buried, while Germay is still the most power country in Europe, and the 4th largest economy in the world. It doesn't count what happened 80 years ago, that is gone and in the past. This is now, and Russia now uses drunks, criminals, and wounded soldiers that are forced to fight while they are even unable to do that. Russia will fall eventually.
Ukraine isn't fighting strategically, they're fighting for PR wins. Edit: send I was right since they're being pushed back on every front and slowly being encircled in Kursk. They didn't have the manpower to pull off an invasion of Russia.
Ukraine inverting the battlefield and taking the fight into Russia was a huge gamble. Thinking they would reach Kursk NPP and trade land for land is utter desperation. The likely outcome is that those forces will be cut off from supply lines surrounded and dealt with. Robbing grocery stores and posting silly reviews of Russian restaurants for their NAFO cheerleaders won't save their lives. Without taking Kursk NPP, which has now been fortified by the Russians, there is no objective. They are just a lost army running aimlessly around the Russian countryside awaiting their doom.
Precisely…. The supply lines have already been totally cut off too. The whole area is already surrounded by Russia, they just need to be slow and smart about this because they want to prevent mass war crimes of desperate Ukrainians in their land. Ukraine is notorious for war crimes against their OWN people. And also, Russia wants this to be SMOOTH and an utter decisive victory without losing much or any of their soldiers for that matter. They are now surrounded and cut off from supply, Russia is just positioning now and planning/getting logistics ready. I HOPE this is the decisive loss for Ukraine that will open up negotiations for peace…. But knowing NATO, they will send more mercenaries and volunteers and service members that they claim aren’t boots on the ground and will threaten Ukrain and their puppet government to NEVER negotiate or ever have diplomatic ties to Russia… so who knows…. This war might get even bloodier and Ukraine may be wiped off the map and complely taken by Russia, even though that’s not what the Russian want anyways… they just want peace. They begged for it and did EVERYTHING right in the decades that led up to this.

@@vaska1999 Nope. Here the Poles and their character were at fault. This was perfectly exploited by the German monarchs who ruled Germany, Austria and Russia during the partitions.
It is absurd to discuss the manpower problem of the Russian army. now that the Ukrainian army has attacked Russia territory, the Russian army can legally counterattack with conscripted units, they don’t even need to pay that much. Makes no difference at all to the front line, but rather distracts the Ukrainian army from its strength
There was never any legal impediment to the usage of conscripts other than Putin’s good will (based on the sociological surveys). That was the practice established by the presidential order, not a conventionally established law.
It won't work your technology is to old, Putin stole all the money for Research and Development and for Russian schooling.

You left out many Russian victories: Mariupol Severodonetsk Lysychansk Soledar Bakhmut Marinka Avdiivka AND the 2023 "Counteroffensive" And I would add Kherson as a Russian victory, if one was to take into account the 7-1 loss ratio in favor of Russia, and about 6 weeks after the battle that Russia clearly won, they decided to take every piece of equipment, every troop and every bit of ammo across the river to a better position. In fact, the Ukrainian troops wouldn't go into the city for over a week, as they said they thought it MUST have been a Russian trick because Russia won the battle, and NO ONE could have pulled off such a perfect withdrawal of so many troops and equipment that quickly to another position across a river. After they got the courage up and finally DID enter the city, they had a big party and celebration claiming they had won the battle there. Of course the Western press went along with it for days until they realized most of the people there celebrating had never lived in that city and it was one big joke as about 40% of the city had left with the Russians. Yes.....they even took all those civilians. It's been so bad for Ukraine in this war, that many times people forget how many battles Ukraine has lost, and what a terrible toll it's taken on the population there.
@@sumosprojects So if you support Ukraine you are not a traitor? You need to look up the word traitor and calling someone a traitor doesn't change anything.

@@nathankox1463 I hope you don't mind that I sent your message to my good friend from Kiev. She answered: "ну просто сказочный долбоеб, явно Википедии перечитал". Sorry, it is a quotation. Believe me or not, but there is no such nation like Ukrainians. On the territory of modern Ukraine (and Russia) Russian people have been living for centuries. Medieval capital of Russia is Kiev, a sacred for all Russians city, our heart with one of our main cathedral St. Sofia (that's why Kiev isn't bombed like Gaza). Medieval rulers as an heirs (in general) had the title prince of Novgorod like Yaroslav one of the most famous rulers of medieval Russia (his wife is still buried in Novgorod cathedral) or Vladimir, who baptized Russia into Orthodox religion. Modern West Ukrainian was medieval Russian dukedoms (during feudal disunity). Town Lvov was named after son oof medieval ussian ruler Daniil of Galicia. Later in medieval times big part of Russia became parts different countries: Turkey, medieval Poland, medieval Austria etc. Only in the North we remain independent and it took many centures to return or territory back, because Russian people were discriminated (for nation, for Orthodox religion). That's why during WW2 ukranian nazy's burned many polish villages (brutality killed polish people). I'm sure you read about this. Now of course the history is rewritten and white is called black. You wrote that in 1783 Russia invaded Ukraine, I guess you ment Russian- Turkish war when Russia got Crimea. Where is Ukraine there on this story?! It simply didn't exist. Ukraine in Russian is a distant land, these lands are distant for both Russia and Poland. All other dates are more or less the same. And the last thing. Today Orthodox Church is forbidden in Ukraine. Our prince Vladimir baptized these lands in 988 and today the story is over. The land has last the sacrality. So during half of the year, maximum a year Ukraine will disappear. Sorry for our icons of 10-12 centuries, they will disappear as this rulers can only rob, steal, destroy and kill, but this is not important: today they killed the sole of Ukraine and no one can live without a sole.

The US military has not fought against a peer opponent since WW2. Fighting against insurgents using tactical ambushes, IEDs, snipers and mortar attacks iwhile you have air supremacy s one thing. Facing sustained artillery attacks, coordinated air and missile strikes, brigade and division sized combat elements and strikes on your logistical support is something VERY different
Every military learns a lot during the initial stages of a war. That being said facing unmarked combatants in a rugged mountainous region is a lot different than facing an actual military with clear battle lines.
Russia doesn't even hate the germans for the same reasons that the rest of the world does (i.e., their murderous despicable ideology)... they just hate them because they tried to invade and conquer Russia itself (i.e., they're just the enemy). That's one thing I've learned over the past few years while talking to Russians about the war, which is unfortunate, because its a place I thought we'd be able to bond over.
At this point, I don't want to talk about the strengths or advantages of both sides - Russia and Ukraine - but instead, it is interesting to see some of their weaknesses. One of the critical weaknesses or challenges of both sides is that both Russia and Ukraine are struggling with their internal disputes and unity -I mean not all citizens of Russia and Ukraine actively support the so-called war. Many Ukrainians in the eastern parts for examle are not really on the side of the Ukraine government, and neither are some Russians, especially some Russians living near the border in western areas of Russia. Even some Russians in Kursk are fighting on the side of Ukraine, and all these are the difficulties faced by both sides. Another matter for both sides, especially Ukraine, is that corruption is a really big problem in Ukraine. I've noted that many countries fighting against external aggressions failed due to corrupt leaders and government officials, among others, and this often led to the lack of internal and external support, including military morale. Another critical issue is that even though Ukraine is strongly supported by the entire West, many nations in other parts of the world don't actively support Ukraine thanks to western hypocrisy, hedgemony and double standards, including Ukraine's some weak foreign policies. A concrete example of this is that despite the ongoing war in Ukraine, the Ukrainian government did show very strong support for Islael at the beginning stage of the aggression in Gaza, and this didn't really satisfy many countries in the global south, especially within the Islamic worlds. Russia, too, even though Russia still maintains relationships with many countries in the world, some Russian foreign policies are not relevant to some, perhaps many, real-life circumstances -hard policy, hard diplomacy, not flexible, and this doesn't satisfy many countries, including the global south. To conclude, one's victory in Russia-Ukraine war, including other wars, can not only be determined militarily and economically, but also the strengths of the internal environments, particularly the unity of their own people.
Ukraine needed the Kursk offensive because they haven't triggered a huge PR since the Kharkiv offensive in 2022. The Western backers have run out of patience for results in Ukraine. As the experts say, this Kursk offensive likens to the Battle of the Bulge in WW2 where Germans counter-attacked just for PR and then lost big time and never recovered.
I don't think that's the complete story. Trump said that Ukraine must enter peace talks or he'll stop sending support. So the Ukrainians needed something to bargain with heading into those talks.
@@joeylopez7978 I don't think Trump can help with the negotiations, Putin will not accept the occupation of Kursk and will continue the war.
Sacrificing your army for PR is even more stupid and f*** up than sacrifing your army for territorial gains. And that's already very, very stupid.
@@joeylopez7978 This attacks ensure, that there won't be any peace talks.
I don't really get the PR argument every single successful military is good for PR like the kharkiv counterattack why would you need a full blown military operation for PR purposes only? when you can launch a successful military with an actual objective which is already good for PR I feel like people who said the Ukraine special military operation in Kursk "is only for PR" don't know what they are talking about
Last time Nazis tryed that they got hammered all the way back to Berlin.
Yes but that was 80 years ago. Weather and a crazy leader were a big part of the nazi failure. Things have changed and there is no allied forces nipping at the back side if a force went into Russia now. Having said that I think it would be crazy for the allies to do that due to the cost for both sides on so many levels. Right now it is time for Ukraine and Russia to come to a peace. Yes Russia will get to keep a piece of Ukraine but Ukraine will get to join Nato and be fully protected into the future.
@@billastell3753Russia will not accept any terms that allow Ukraine to jain NATO. At this point I doubt NATO even wants Ukraine.
Nazis were fighting 4 empires in multiple front Soviet empire , British Empire , French Empire and Yankee Empire, the Austrian pinter is the one to blame for such defeats not the Russian capabilities
And Russia got his ass kicked during that whole process.
The Sovjet Union is dead and buried, while Germay is still the most power country in Europe, and the 4th largest economy in the world.
It doesn't count what happened 80 years ago, that is gone and in the past.
This is now, and Russia now uses drunks, criminals, and wounded soldiers that are forced to fight while they are even unable to do that.
Russia will fall eventually.

Ukraine isn't fighting strategically, they're fighting for PR wins.
Edit: send I was right since they're being pushed back on every front and slowly being encircled in Kursk. They didn't have the manpower to pull off an invasion of Russia.

They Lasten long becouse russia chose targets
@@JohnDorian-j7x Because they're tactically competent.

At least they had enough balls to push into Russia
Ukraine inverting the battlefield and taking the fight into Russia was a huge gamble. Thinking they would reach Kursk NPP and trade land for land is utter desperation.
The likely outcome is that those forces will be cut off from supply lines surrounded and dealt with. Robbing grocery stores and posting silly reviews of Russian restaurants for their NAFO cheerleaders won't save their lives.
Without taking Kursk NPP, which has now been fortified by the Russians, there is no objective. They are just a lost army running aimlessly around the Russian countryside awaiting their doom.
Precisely…. The supply lines have already been totally cut off too. The whole area is already surrounded by Russia, they just need to be slow and smart about this because they want to prevent mass war crimes of desperate Ukrainians in their land. Ukraine is notorious for war crimes against their OWN people. And also, Russia wants this to be SMOOTH and an utter decisive victory without losing much or any of their soldiers for that matter. They are now surrounded and cut off from supply, Russia is just positioning now and planning/getting logistics ready.
I HOPE this is the decisive loss for Ukraine that will open up negotiations for peace…. But knowing NATO, they will send more mercenaries and volunteers and service members that they claim aren’t boots on the ground and will threaten Ukrain and their puppet government to NEVER negotiate or ever have diplomatic ties to Russia… so who knows…. This war might get even bloodier and Ukraine may be wiped off the map and complely taken by Russia, even though that’s not what the Russian want anyways… they just want peace. They begged for it and did EVERYTHING right in the decades that led up to this.

Let's see Russia carpet bomb their own land as they have in Ukraine. Ukraine can move more freely in Russia land without the mines, etc. Ukraine doesn't need to control anything they just need to continue moving into Russian weak points exploiting them. The war had become boring. We stopped watching, which was bad for Ukraine. Now more funds will start piling in. Ukraine can continue exploiting Russian weak points inside their borders with little manpower and keep making videos. This was never about a land grab.

Aw shit. Yall forgot about the mongols.
It is absurd to discuss the manpower problem of the Russian army. now that the Ukrainian army has attacked Russia territory, the Russian army can legally counterattack with conscripted units, they don’t even need to pay that much. Makes no difference at all to the front line, but rather distracts the Ukrainian army from its strength
There was never any legal impediment to the usage of conscripts other than Putin’s good will (based on the sociological surveys). That was the practice established by the presidential order, not a conventionally established law.
It won't work your technology is to old, Putin stole all the money for Research and Development and for Russian schooling. Ukraine has push into your territories so that they can destroy your air force which they are doing. Now that only leave you with broken down tanks and old half working trucks.

"legally counterattack" LMAO
So many "analysts" out there has not even grasped this fact.
You left out many Russian victories:
Mariupol
Severodonetsk
Lysychansk
Soledar
Bakhmut
Marinka
Avdiivka
AND the 2023 "Counteroffensive"
And I would add Kherson as a Russian victory, if one was to take into account the 7-1 loss ratio in favor of Russia, and about 6 weeks after the battle that Russia clearly won, they decided to take every piece of equipment, every troop and every bit of ammo across the river to a better position. In fact, the Ukrainian troops wouldn't go into the city for over a week, as they said they thought it MUST have been a Russian trick because Russia won the battle, and NO ONE could have pulled off such a perfect withdrawal of so many troops and equipment that quickly to another position across a river. After they got the courage up and finally DID enter the city, they had a big party and celebration claiming they had won the battle there.
Of course the Western press went along with it for days until they realized most of the people there celebrating had never lived in that city and it was one big joke as about 40% of the city had left with the Russians.
Yes.....they even took all those civilians.
It's been so bad for Ukraine in this war, that many times people forget how many battles Ukraine has lost, and what a terrible toll it's taken on the population there.

@@sumosprojects Russians consider it a great injustice that the CIA carried out an anti-Russian coup in Kiev in 2014. Russians have never had malice against Ukrainians or Americans. Moreover, Russia was one of the first to recognize the United States at the time of its founding. Russia also created the Ukrainian Republic after the Russian Revolution. Russia considers the hatred that the United States sows in Ukraine against Russians to be black ingratitude.

While I do agree that the US could call upon wisdom for a war against Russia. You have to remember that the US has never faced a military on par with theirs yet theyloet every war they've started, Russia has never lost a conflict which they began.
There's a reason why 98% of the foreign legion quit during Bakhmut, most of which were war vets themselves. They just can't sustain real life war, Russia already a accepted loss of life in their doctrine the West hasn't.
Ukraine wasn't treating its Western mercenaries that well also mercenaries leave when the side that's hiring them it is losing

Well, to be honest, the 40 member squad are humiliating ru pretty bad so far. Big pr win so far. I believe that it will take a while to get ukr out, not even speaking about the cost.
@@schepvogelk5971 they don't need to, they build lines to cut the advance, and let them stay there, cut the supply lines and wait for the results, unlike Ukraine, Russia doesn't need actions to post on social media, they plan for results in the long term, which has been obvious for the last two years.
@@SteveHarris-q1m still humiliated, still big pr win, ru again suprised, while they thought they had the upper hand. Time will tell how this will unfold.
RIP Ukraine
Get this into everyone's head .... Russia cannot afford to lose ..... period. No matter what ..... So Russia will win.... period.
The question is what does Putin really want? I think Ukraine should cede the eastern front and accept they don't have the sustainability to win without NATO troops. Or NATO gets involved and we have WW3. I don't much respect Ukraine or Russia so I don't favor either side, I just don't want WW3.
The only question is what exactly a win? New territories?
Russia is like big brother that protect kid and USA and Ukraine are bully that are ruled by Israel and gay bio labs, Indians and russians are brothers.
So... Russia CAN'T "afford to lose" even though if it did, it'd just go back to being its own sovereign country in Russia. But... apparently, Ukraine CAN "afford to lose" even though if it did, it's country would literally cease to exist? Is that correct? Am I hearing you? What an absurd statement... if anyone "can't afford to lose" its Ukraine. Not only could russia "afford" to "lose"... it could even lose giant swathes of its territory and still afford to "lose" even further and still exist. The only thing/person that "can't afford to lose" is Putin himself.
@@carljensen333 Ukraine tried that before when it "ceded" Crimea without doing anything about it. Then it tried that again when it "ceded" the Eastern portion of Ukraine to Russia after marginally doing something about it. Then, when Russia tried to "cede" the rest of Ukraine, Ukrainians finally did something about it. What's to stop Russia from just trying again after rebuilding its army/supplies again PLUS the addition of having major battlefield experience and lessons learned to boot??? Also, would "WW3" occur if NATO got involved ONLY inside of Ukraine? If "NATO" just helped Ukraine get back its normal territories, then why would Russia risk the potential outcomes of a "WW3" when it could just go back to how it was normally in terms of territory for the past quarter century? It seems like a much better outcome than a "WW3", don't you think?

The Nazi symbols on Ukrainians are clearly visible in the videos and in the reports of the Italians. That's what was forgotten in the West, but accepted in Russia: Russia, as the winner in World War 2, has the right to fight any Nazism around the world according to the UN Charter.
The only reason Ukraine helped Germany was cause Russia had been invading them for centuries, they jumped on the German band wagon to rid themselves of red commies. Ever heard of the enemy of my enemy is my friend, Ukraine did not like Nazis, they hated Stalinist commies that killed millions of Ukrainians.
@@nathankox1463please give me just one fact when Russia invaded Ukraine. It was very funny to read. What country are you from?
@@irinabutyugina3697 ok that’s easy, since the 1700’s Russia has invaded Ukraine in 1783, 1793, 1849, 1917, 1919, 1922,2014, 2022 plus I might of missed an invasion or 2. Ukraine is luckier than Finland though they have been invaded by Russia over 30x in the same time period. You do see a recurring them of Russian aggression …right?
Oh, I am Aussie expat living in NYC since the 90’s to answer your question. It is so fitting that when Russia invaded New York Ukraine that they end up being invaded by Ukraine(first time since ww2) moral of the story is don’t F#CK with New York… gotta love it.
@@nathankox1463 I hope you don't mind that I sent your message to my good friend from Kiev. She answered: "ну просто сказочный долбоеб, явно Википедии перечитал". Sorry, it is a quotation. Believe me or not, but there is no such nation like Ukrainians. On the territory of modern Ukraine (and Russia) Russian people have been living for centuries. Medieval capital of Russia is Kiev, a sacred for all Russians city, our heart with one of our main cathedral St. Sofia (that's why Kiev isn't bombed like Gaza). Medieval rulers as an heirs (in general) had the title prince of Novgorod like Yaroslav one of the most famous rulers of medieval Russia (his wife is still buried in Novgorod cathedral) or Vladimir, who baptized Russia into Orthodox religion. Modern West Ukrainian was medieval Russian dukedoms (during feudal disunity). Town Lvov was named after son oof medieval ussian ruler Daniil of Galicia. Later in medieval times big part of Russia became parts different countries: Turkey, medieval Poland, medieval Austria etc. Only in the North we remain independent and it took many centures to return or territory back, because Russian people were discriminated (for nation, for Orthodox religion). That's why during WW2 ukranian nazy's burned many polish villages (brutality killed polish people). I'm sure you read about this.
Now of course the history is rewritten and white is called black.
You wrote that in 1783 Russia invaded Ukraine, I guess you ment Russian- Turkish war when Russia got Crimea. Where is Ukraine there on this story?! It simply didn't exist. Ukraine in Russian is a distant land, these lands are distant for both Russia and Poland.
All other dates are more or less the same.
And the last thing. Today Orthodox Church is forbidden in Ukraine. Our prince Vladimir baptized these lands in 988 and today the story is over. The land has last the sacrality. So during half of the year, maximum a year Ukraine will disappear. Sorry for our icons of 10-12 centuries, they will disappear as this rulers can only rob, steal, destroy and kill, but this is not important: today they killed the sole of Ukraine and no one can live without a sole.
In 2022, when the US, NATO already had 700,00 well equipped, prepared Ukrainian soldiers, some of the buried "soldiers" were around 16! Ukraine may be small but remember CIA worked on the coup alone from 2002 to 2014, killed 1000's of minority groups mostly targeting Russian farmers to ignite this war with Russia, since Russia is the strongest of the former USSR' States natural resources. 34 countries arm, finance and fight in this war not Ukraine, the 700,000 buried or maimed before mid 2022! US war veterans homeless by the 1000's suffering mental health PTSD issues untreated! Russian men fight for their country and their families! NATO fights for Zelenski's yachts, mansions, US, UK, EU ,NATO governments bribes!
Nato wants Russian resources. While they was buying it for cheap, all was OK.
Corect!.
Surrendering years ago would of been the smartest thing to do.
Surrendering Ukraine means American surrender. America got not enough pain itself to surrender yet.
Yea, but Boris Johnson came to the peace talk and said, hey you guys can win this war, we will support u !
No country should go down without a fight. If China and US America invaded Russian would you agree they should surrender
This is the end. My beautiful friend, the end...

Very good journalism excellent work , you do justice to social media … Thank you 👍
Not sure why you are speaking to this guy like he is an expert. He was just a private with no technical knowledge or experience.
And yet I’m the only one who’s predicted things that came true unlike the fake officers you watch on TH-cam who tell you Ukraine would surrender since 2022 I’m the only one talking about major battles and coined the term for this war
@@Wild-Siberia I'm not hearing that so much. We knew the size of the Russian force at the start of the invasion and it was not appropriate for a country the size of Ukraine.
I believe if Putin understood Russia would still be fighting a war 2 years later and that it cost the amount it has in men and material he wouldn't have ordered the invasion.
I'm sorry for Ukraine it's done and is wasting soldiers and resources for nothing
The whole war was unnecessary and benefits nobody except the US millitary industrial comlex and corrupt politicians. To satisfy their greed, half a million lives will be lost and a million more ruined. Its tragic, and the guilty have no remorse, most of them are psychopaths.
Ukraine has few casualties from this incursion thus far. It actually gained resources from this incursion (e.g. POWs, vehicles, intelligence, etc.)
@@weirdo1060 Thus far you could say that the operation has justified itself, but if Ukraine doesn't withdraw soon it will end in disaster. Even if the ukes succeed in making an orderly, well planned retreat, it wont affect the final outcome of the war. Z believes the loser should dictate peace terms, whereas Putin holds the more conventional view that it should be the victor.

I don't know about the Russians but I saw a video on X, piles of Ukrainian Soldiers on the field, as much as 40 to 50 soldiers as the Wagner PMC troops passed by. Normally the Regular Russian Army takes prisoners but Wagner doesn't play around.

So so interesting!! Thank you very much
Love your videos and those of wild siberia. As a fellow US military combat veteran and someone who wants to follow a similar path as him with regard to being a Russian citizen I hope you put more videos out and keep doing what your doing. A lot of us here in the states know the truth about Ukraine and don't listen to main stream bullshit.
I like this guy, listen with much interest every time.
The US military has not fought against a peer opponent since WW2. Fighting against insurgents using tactical ambushes, IEDs, snipers and mortar attacks iwhile you have air supremacy s one thing. Facing sustained artillery attacks, coordinated air and missile strikes, brigade and division sized combat elements and strikes on your logistical support is something VERY different
And dont forget the Sheer amount of violence Happening that the US Military is Not used to
I disagree. US fought two opponents Korea (stalemate....really a loss) and Vietnam, total loss. US didn't win WW2... it had Russia on same side lol
Every military learns a lot during the initial stages of a war. That being said facing unmarked combatants in a rugged mountainous region is a lot different than facing an actual military with clear battle lines.
The us as we stand we would never beat Russia just facts sorry
If you tried we would all die
I like your logic. I can agree on a lot of it. Maybe we'll have differences in nuances.
But the sad truth is that the war is a human meat grinder.
Five minutes into this and I'm asking myself "why exactly am I listening to this dude's opinions?"

The plaques in Siberia. All those precious souls who died under the boot of the Nazis. Horrible pain and suffering.
Russia doesn't even hate the germans for the same reasons that the rest of the world does (i.e., their murderous despicable ideology)... they just hate them because they tried to invade and conquer Russia itself (i.e., they're just the enemy). That's one thing I've learned over the past few years while talking to Russians about the war, which is unfortunate, because its a place I thought we'd be able to bond over.
Great analysis!
Now being starved out, how sad war is.😢
Excellent analysis
Thanks a lot for watching
At this point, I don't want to talk about the strengths or advantages of both sides - Russia and Ukraine - but instead, it is interesting to see some of their weaknesses.
One of the critical weaknesses or challenges of both sides is that both Russia and Ukraine are struggling with their internal disputes and unity -I mean not all citizens of Russia and Ukraine actively support the so-called war. Many Ukrainians in the eastern parts for examle are not really on the side of the Ukraine government, and neither are some Russians, especially some Russians living near the border in western areas of Russia. Even some Russians in Kursk are fighting on the side of Ukraine, and all these are the difficulties faced by both sides.
Another matter for both sides, especially Ukraine, is that corruption is a really big problem in Ukraine. I've noted that many countries fighting against external aggressions failed due to corrupt leaders and government officials, among others, and this often led to the lack of internal and external support, including military morale.
Another critical issue is that even though Ukraine is strongly supported by the entire West, many nations in other parts of the world don't actively support Ukraine thanks to western hypocrisy, hedgemony and double standards, including Ukraine's some weak foreign policies. A concrete example of this is that despite the ongoing war in Ukraine, the Ukrainian government did show very strong support for Islael at the beginning stage of the aggression in Gaza, and this didn't really satisfy many countries in the global south, especially within the Islamic worlds.
Russia, too, even though Russia still maintains relationships with many countries in the world, some Russian foreign policies are not relevant to some, perhaps many, real-life circumstances -hard policy, hard diplomacy, not flexible, and this doesn't satisfy many countries, including the global south.
To conclude, one's victory in Russia-Ukraine war, including other wars, can not only be determined militarily and economically, but also the strengths of the internal environments, particularly the unity of their own people.
This analysis is spot on and unbiased
