I disagree with any point of them losing any moral ground. by bringing flight to Russia. Russia has been destroying their country forth pretty much three years and they have a situation where they're fighting with one hand behind their back because they only can do this or that and Russia is fighting with no restrict no restrictions no morals. And they are having all the advantage. If Ukraine is to have any chance of beating a nation 3 plus times larger than themselves with a second largest military in the world, they're going to have to use every advantage they can get.
Guerilla and urban warfare tactics totally shocked the Russians in the opening days back 2022. This is a an angle that can damage Putin in Russia, he doesn't care about how the western world views him, mostly just Russians. He sold the soul of his nation to embrace North Korea and Iran, two of 3 most rogue governments on earth.
This was I think a brilliant move by Ukraine. Of course there is risk, but Ukraine has the benefit of U.S. intelligence as well as their own intelligence. We can't exactly know what their full intentions are, but one goal would be to try to draw Russian troops off the front line in the east to ease the burden on the defending Ukrainian troops there. This incursion also gets the attention of the world and embarrasses Russia. It is also raises the morale of the Ukraine military and their people, while at the same time serves as psychological warfare against Putin. Didn't a Ukraine government official just meet with the Chinese? This could help persuade China to put more pressure on Putin. We don't know at this point whether Ukraine plans to try to hold this Russian territory and if so, for how long. Finally, Ukraine is operating within establish rules of warfare. They are not giving up the moral high ground by this action. They are making a statement that they reserve the right to defend themselves as they see fit, including by using their weaponry on Russian soil and if warranted by taking and holding Russian territory. For too long, there has been a double standard in favor of Russia. Ukraine is increasingly demonstrating that that will no longer be the case.
nice long story only thing is are any troops moving? no. embarrasses russia oh cool, now what? yes the morale of the guys under the fabs on the actual front line are boosted. they are happier im sure. lol.

Or was to start with. The fact it’s been so easy, suggests this may become more than that as a tactic. Putin is in deep trouble. He needs to evacuate all civilians as those who stay will quickly understand Ukrainians are the good guys. As do the troops who surrender and get treated better for it.

It’s better for Ukraine to defend and tactically withdraw (very slowly). Russia will keep losing. Their logistics gets harder the deeper they go and they will run out of everything. Russia’s economy is in deep, deep trouble.

Because this (Times Radio) is an MI6 propaganda operation spoon feeding the population and he needs to keep a tight grip on the conversation. Ukraine is getting hammered and losing an entire generation of men. Remember it was the British who stepped in and destroyed peace talks very early on. So every life from that point forward is on the US and UK. This was all in the name of trying to establish an overbearing position at the negotiating table....seems to have thoroughly backfired. Its pretty reasonable for any country to tell a security alliance like NATO to f%^k right off from placing long range munitions at or near its border not to mention the CIA forward posts or the biological research facilities. They did this patiently via diplomatic channels for nearly a DECADE before taking further action. You mess with a bull you end up getting the horns. And no I dont have a lot of sympathy in general for the way Russia presents itself in the world but the same can be said for the US quite frankly. Its self evident to all rational minds around the world that the EU, UK and US cannot (or do not want to) find a peaceful solution to this situation. They have had ample opportunity to show leadership and we are in fact closer to a world war than to peace.
There is little risk of escalation due to the simple fact that the situation is already escalated. What remains "smart" for putin in the big picture remains unchanged, except he now has to deal with more chaos and issues of redeployment of troops.
Oh.That's news,cause I have read reports stating that THE RESERVES are taking care of the UAF,in that area,and that it did not affect the front.No,there UKRAINE is being SMASHED
You lose no moral upper hand by defending yourself in war. Civilians are off limits, and there are rules in war, but these silly games of "we get to attack you with missiles from Russia but you can only hit us on your own land" is insanity and militarily untenable.
Equipment is a two sided blade in this current incursion by UAF. The border region contains numeruos ruzzian supply depots, thus a great source to repurpose these supplies and equipment for Ukraine troops. The zforce can either destroy these supplies and equipment or let them fall in to Ukraine hands. either way by this move these crucial logistics are no longer available to the ztroops.

I find the question posed by the Times reporter bizzare. To ask the Ukrainian reporter if Ukraine risks losing the moral highground due to this incursion of the border, and then asking if the Ukrainian people ‘approve’ of this step, tends suggest that he does not understand the situation. There is a war going on, for now 10 years or so. For Ukraine it is a war of survival. If your enemy can lob bombs and other ordinance over the border with, as is suggested by the question, complete security, then Ukraine will certainly lose. What is the difference between launching missiles across the border and soldiers crossing the border? econdly, when you are in a war, you don’t have opinion polls as to whether this or that tactical operation is good or bad. You elect politicians to look after your country and they appoint generals to run the war. Lastly I do wish commentators and reporters would show some circumspection when broaching events where there are so many unknowns. Did reporters/commentators have interviews with french people five day after D-day?
“Is it your reality? How often do you hear explosions in Kyiv?” What a pointless question. Ukrainians worked hard to defend the city and later to push the enemy away from the city. Explosions are obviously more frequent in other areas. If you can leave work and not worry about one single thing, you have no right to make “points” like that
Russia is so big and surrounded by so many countries its quite easy to invade but Russia is also one of the most dangerous countries to invade. I don't see this ending well for the Ukraine civilians Unfortunately.

According to Russian sources, AFU opened second front in Russia's Kursk oblast: the settlement of Slobodka-Ivanovka in the west of the Kursk oblast came under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Quite silly to talk of Russian escalation. When everything you do is violent aggression, and an escalation, escalation has no extra meaning. When everything is special,what’s special? Russia has its excuses for everything it does. That does not mean that it has any moral justification for anything it does against the people of Ukraine. Ukraines mobile warfare is a welcome breakout from static warfare at a fixed front, and it offers the prospect of a free-ranging mobile army in Putin’s rear. This discussion needs an interview with some military insight.
If Russia was a show, it’d be the Three Stooges. Bear mind, this is the country where the national pastime is predicting when the US is going to crumble.
Its easier for them to invade Russia than it will be to get back out alive afterwards. This diversion will not end well for those sent in. They should get out while they can. This seems to be a publicity stunt not an invasion.
The first invasion of Russian territory since 1941 is pretty debatable. China and Russia had border disputes that went into full on fighting in about 1969 in the area next to HeiLongJiang in China (ie on the Vladivostok side).
Provoke an escalation? How much escalation can you get when the country has been at war for years? What a ridiculous statement.

@@Raffin74 yeah, good job utilizing UA men and buying dachas in Spain, well done, ZeZe! He's true actor of the western vassals.
@@KTO_HUBLOT please send a link with the photos of ZeZe in his datcha in Spain. So far what I have seen is the kids of the Russian elite (Medvedev, Shoigu, Soloviov, Poutine...) all of them living or studying in Europe....
The host knew there was lagg in the interview but kept interrupting her instead of letting her finish.
Russia leave now to china😂😂😂w
Use proper mic!
i think it is time that Ukraine gave back to Russia what they have been getting from russia
Loses the upper hand because Ukraine went on the offensive? What is this garbage, its a war.
According to Russian sources, AFU opened second front in Russia's Kursk oblast: the settlement of Slobodka-Ivanovka in the west of the Kursk oblast came under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Ukraine has a right to defend itself as it sees fit. The UK marched into Berlin in WWII. Your comments are ridiculous.
You invade then they invade yours.😮😢
What a dumb question. One country invades another, and this guy asks if doing the same thing to the aggressor is an escalation? Unreal 'journalims'
Quite silly to talk of Russian escalation. When everything you do is violent aggression, and an escalation, escalation has no extra meaning. When everything is special,what’s special? Russia has its excuses for everything it does. That does not mean that it has any moral justification for anything it does against the people of Ukraine. Ukraines mobile warfare is a welcome breakout from static warfare at a fixed front, and it offers the prospect of a free-ranging mobile army in Putin’s rear. This discussion needs an interview with some military insight.
yup
If Russia was a show, it’d be the Three Stooges. Bear mind, this is the country where the national pastime is predicting when the US is going to crumble.
Such idiotic (banal, pedestrian, bland, bbc-ish) questions..........................
This interviewer 🙄
Its easier for them to invade Russia than it will be to get back out alive afterwards. This diversion will not end well for those sent in. They should get out while they can. This seems to be a publicity stunt not an invasion.
Is this the Olly from the Answer me this podcast?
Slava Ukraini!

Everything Ukraine does is risky. If they don't do risky they cease to exist as a country. This guy sounds like Chamberlain.
slava ukraine
The first invasion of Russian territory since 1941 is pretty debatable. China and Russia had border disputes that went into full on fighting in about 1969 in the area next to HeiLongJiang in China (ie on the Vladivostok side).
