- "We have to give Ukraine as much ability as possible to strike deep and to cause Putin to pause himself and to think, okay, how do we bring this to an end?"
Ukraine's green light to use British weapons on Russian soil will put pressure on Putin to end the war if it is followed by similar pledges from Western allies, Maj. Gen. Tim Cross tells #timesradio on Frontline

Pressure, pressure, pressure ………… we need the see the backend of this conflict.
The Ukrainians deserve safety and security.
They had an agreement with Russia in Istanbul but the West told them to reject it and continue to fight Russia to weaken the nation. Let us admit what everyone now knows, Ukraine has been used by the Western powers to provoke Russia into this war.
Ukraine killed mostly 14,000 Russian Ukrainians in Eastern region of Ukraine, the Donbas from 2014 after their coup to February 2022 when this war started.
Russia did not want a full blown war and that is why in 2022 they withdrew their 40 mile military convoy to Kiev which was formed to frighten Ukraine into a compromise and submission. But Z was convinced by the West to fight to the bitter end. This is a war that could have been avoided with the horrendous loss of life.
Now what victory will look like for Russia is Ukraine's capitulation and surrender.
this war is just NATO and the west using Ukrainian bodies to fight a NATO war. If that were not true you wouldnt have millions of Ukrainian men outside the country under threat of being force returned to fight a war they dont want, even inside Ukraine they had to do a draft with major tracking units to force men to fight a war they didnt want so this is gross its a war by nato for nato forcing men who dont want to fight it, fight it for the benefit of nato. its so gross

Excellent interview, thank you.

Fear based order: Your opponent can strike any part of your land, but you can't strike any part of your opponent's land. Rule based order: Your opponent strikes any part of your land then you can strike any part of their land.
Actually… according to the UN charter and international laws, Russia may not strike Ukraine for the reasons it does so. Ukraine may however strike military targets in Russia to defend itself.
And not only that, any nation may come to Ukraines’s aid and send troops to help Ukraine defend itself.
Curious, but where exactly in the charter?

The West shafted Ukraine big time in this war! First they delivered and continue to deliver weapons at a slow pace and not in sufficient numbers to make any significant progress on the ground and second they prevented Ukraine from striking into Russian territory with western weapons. It was madness to limit the war zone to only Ukrainian territory 🤨
It wasn't " the West" it was Maganut Trump sympathizers. Sorry, the world is F' d up right now. But in the end Trump and Putin will fall!
they want russia oil/gas fields to escape unscathed so they can trade with putin's successor. They supplly weapons only to make the rubble bounce higher in ukraine so global corporations can capture western tax monies to reconstruct a battered ukraine. this was never about ukraine, but about putin, oil, and reconstruction.
Sadly true. Putin's best ally is Western cowardice.
They want to draw it out over several years it seems.
They've also massively backed them.
I never understood why this entire war had to take place solely on the soil of Ukraine

You’re exactly right, that right from the beginning the west should have kept the pressure of Putin by continues supply of weapons specifically long range and allow them to use anywhere if Russia continue to use their missiles to the civilian and right away sending air defense capabilities in most populated cities and infrastructures plus the F-16 at an early stage.
Amen to that! Totally agree
Sounds like appeasement ✌️1938
It is not right that Ukraine is being prevented from hitting Russian planes while they are in Russian airspace. Or Russian staging areas their side of the border. Ukraine needs to be able to exclude Russian military assets from the zone around Ukraine where they can hit Ukraine.

We need a strategy that helps Ukraine not only to win this war, but thereafter to win the peace. This involves fundamental changes in Russia - so fundamental that the Russian Federation needs to break up into smaller countries that no longer want to bully their neighbours
Crippling their whole one economic industry would be the impetus that could lead to a revolution. The driving force needs to come internally but I'm not sure the population has the psyche, will power or drive to inflict such change though. The boat with those who have half a brain and some drive has long sailed.
The combination of a failed war abroad and a brittle, strained system at home is increasing the likelihood of some sort of implosion inside Russia.

The most level headed military man who has commented on this war. Still, I think Western experts inveterately underestimate how far Putin is willing to go in regards to Ukraine.
Excellent guest.
" I can't see Russia being defeated" sums up the shyt opinion of weak Western military brass. Russia is already defeated. Just because you built a giant in your mind for 60 years you can't accept that this giant is actually only 5'3. Russia's real goal to erase the Kyiv govt is not impossible. They have been defeated, whether they eat on eastern lands or not.
Putin's height (or lack thereof) actually explains a lot.
Lol)) Russia is winning everywhere and that's the narrative you are telling yourself? Kiev gov will def be erased but that's not the point really
Under pressure from whom? No one in his own country dares to stand up to him.
Unless he possesses dark magical powers (which I doubt), there will be pressure. That is a guarantee.
Putin has an iron clad fist on the Russians

You're absolutely right. Putin keeps playing with fire but he never learns.
@TheNemorosa when it comes to war the British should just shut up.
@@lTandermthrust2001 But it is so much fun laughing at the Russian's humiliating themselves before the whole world! Putin certainly has got his country in a pickle, that's for sure.
Especially the dwarf that started it.
Ukraine doesn’t have to negotiate with Russia
Recommended move: "The Bodyguards..."
I subscribe to the view that Putin does not want a very competent person in charge of defence (to replace Shoigu) because they would control the armed forces and could then challenge Putin himself via a coup. He has no regard for human life except his own.
Tim Cross said: "I can't see Russia defeated" ... I wonder if the more practical statement is "I can't see Russia winning". At this point, Russia is on the offensive, advancing more than before but at staggering cost. If they achieve a "win" where they force Ukraine to sue for peace after ceding a significant amount of their country, where does that leave Russia? An isolated state with allies like Iran and North Korea and completely dependent on China. That seems to be the best Russia can hope for from the current course of action. The part of Ukraine they will inherit will be in shambles, the population resentful and in urgent need of reconstruction. The economy in poor shape, having burned commerce bridges and retooled for war. The war veterans will come back to a country with few prospects. Ethnic tensions, always simmering, might boil over. That does not sound like much of a win.
I can see China waiting to invade Russia as it runs out of all

Then Putin issued another nuclear threat.
How could Ukraine defend itsself with one hand tied in the back? Orcs need to pay the prices to learn!
This is a well balanced perspective. Admittedly, what one defines as victory or defeat is somewhat subjective. For example, some claim that Russia has already 'lost' relative to their initial goal because 2+ years in, they only hold ~19% of Ukraine, much of which they've held since 2014, and stands little chance of gaining much more. However, I'm surprised that General Cross said he could not see Russia being 'defeated'. While I lack the military background to impose a solid reality check on my view, I think the combined west has more than enough production capacity and advanced weaponry, and Ukraine has the will to overwhelm what Russia has left. This could define 'victory' as Russia leaving ALL of Ukraine.
I consider much of what media presents as suspect. Yet in aggregate, it suggests to me that:
-) Russian troop moral is already low. We can accelerate that. It may not take much for it to reach a critical stage where any semblance of coherence is lost.
-) The troops are often ill equipped of both arms and even basics like food and first aid. We can accelerate this shortcoming with 'long range fires' crippling Russian logistics.
-) The massive losses of offensive, transport, and defensive vehicles/platforms already exceeds Russia's replacement capacity. 'Long range fires' can accelerate that loss rate.
-) Increased quantities and freedom of use of 'long range fires' and introduction of F16s, will effect the point at which the 3 tasks noted above cause the Russian offense to collapse.
Does the collective west lack the capacity to overwhelm Russia? Is it just a lack of will? Or, is it a calculated strategy to limit Putin from feeling the need to issue full scale mobilization orders until such time that Russia has been bled so dry that there is too little left for full mobilization to amount to much?
Someone mentioned Gerasimov, BTW.....where IS he?

You never get anywhere giving in to a bully. First time we asked Putin, "Are you going to invade Ukraine and he said no. We should have said good because if you do, we are fighting alongside Ukraine if asked. It's just common sense on the street stuff. Obviously, it's not something that MPs and most world leaders are good at. They don't know how to deal with Putin because he is just a criminal acting as a leader.

Agree.
. . . anyway it is an stupidly arbitrary assertion that the useage of western weapons on RU territory would be making the "West a directly participating war party" - that is how RU wants to see / interpret it - but RU under no circumstances could take on a direct conventional confrontation with "the West" / NATO and so RU is threatening a (tactical) nuklear escalation which then would definitely cause an immediate direkt involvement of the West (or of NATO if any member would be attacked) . . .

Tim Cross - The Great Appeaser
I think major should help on th front in Ukraine. Go major, go
I said this before I will say it again... Putin refrained from mobilizing before Sept 2022 cos he was also afraid if he mobilized a million then NATOI would see that as a threat and ramp up themselves. So instead he mobilized a lower number and then kept up with a 'replacement' rate of casualties.... about 30k a month. But now the casualty rate in the last week as skyrocketed to over 1500 a day, if it keeps going his casualty rate could go over 2500 per day... and that means he needs 45k to 70k a months conscripted or over half a million a year. So now he has NATO's undivided attention on this issue, EXACTLY what Putin was hoping to avoid at all costs... and due to Russia's ramping up NATO too are arming up. Russia cannot compete with the EU and US in terms of industry, young men, money, infrastructure and military power. If NATO nations in Europe really wanted to, if they had to, then they could raise an army of 10 million in a year. Thats exactly what's starting now.
The NATO nations total GDP is ten times higher than Russia’s “trust me on this” numbers. The NATO nations already invest close to 2% on their GDP of defenses. Russia simply has to meet those numbers now when he has embarked on an arms race. That means 10x2 = 20% of Russia’s GDP… And not the mere 6% Putin has as an ambition to reach. The USSR spend 17%. Something that contributed to its collapse.
The troops that Putin will need to accomplish an invasion of Ukraine is still nothing to the amount of troops Russia will have to station indefinitely in Ukraine if it would turn into an occupation. An invasion is the relatively easy part. Occupation… not so easy! It’s not like after WWII when there was enough Ukrainian communist to control the people. Because there won’t be enough Ukrainian kleptocrats to control the people.

I don’t think Ukraine should be restricted in terms of targets with western weapons beyond the usual international rules of war.
Like yes - they shouldn’t be allowed to blow up apartments and hospitals the way Russia has done. But military targets (bases, troop barracks) and strategic targets (energy, oil refineries, etc) targets are pretty fair game. And they’ve been hitting oil refineries for a good bit now with their drones, we haven’t had any problems with that.
