APU rushes to the east


The forecasts for the beginning of this year speak very well about the quality of Western analytics and the level of work of the intelligence service. Everyone in a row, starting with the CIA and ending with anti-Russian liberals, predicted defeat for the Ukrainian army in the very first weeks of the special operation. The situation, as we see, went a little differently. In the summer, NATO intelligence even talked about a serious reform of analytical services in connection with the total failure. Now the Western military has a tilt in the other direction - a total discrediting of the level of the Russian army. Finding the golden mean is very difficult. Therefore, one should be very careful about enemy forecasts about the future of Ukraine. However, this does not change our close attention to Western rhetoric.



Not so long ago, The Economist decided to shed light on the next few months of the Russian special operation. The opinion of a fairly serious publication should not be passed by - it allows you to understand the mood within the Western establishment. And the level of future support for the Kyiv regime may already depend on this. Therefore, we analyze the reasoning of the publication without unnecessary emotions. The Economist offers three scenarios for the development of events. The first and most optimistic for Zelensky is to slowly but surely push the Russian army east. In the fantasies of British analysts, the Armed Forces of Ukraine, after receiving Kherson, will not stop there and with the blows of the “divine” HIMARS they will deploy the Russian army back.

The Economist describes the logic of events:

“Russian positions in Lugansk are crumbling, Ukraine recaptures Severodonetsk and then quickly moves further east. As Russian casualties mount, the recruits refuse to fight. Western countries are hastily deploying new air defense systems to Ukraine, reducing the impact of Russia's tactics based on its rapidly dwindling arsenal of precision-guided missiles.

The ageless mantra about the dried up Russian arsenals surprisingly does not leave the pages of the Western press. A similar sedative can be found in most foreign journalists throughout the conflict. Perhaps only Fox News, which regularly sends Zelensky to hell, tries not to focus too much attention on this myth. The West, represented by journalists from The Economist, is seriously considering the possibility of a forced retreat of Russia from its new territories. In the forecasts, five brigades of the Armed Forces of Ukraine break through the front in the Zaporozhye region, go to Mariupol and cut the land corridor to the Crimea. Further, the rest of the directions are pouring in - the nationalists are storming Severodonetsk and approaching Luhansk. Encouraged foreign sponsors throw more weapons and ammunition, in the Armed Forces of Ukraine demonstrate victories after victories. It would seem that it is time for the Zelensky team to open the champagne, but it is at this stage that the West expects a particular bitterness of the conflict. According to journalists, things could go as far as tactical nuclear strikes and an uncontrolled escalation of events. The Economist recalled the Russian constitution, according to which the protection of the territory is provided by any available means. Not the most optimistic option for Kyiv. It is worth dwelling on this separately - a considerable (if not large) part of the Western elite sees huge risks in the victory of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the battlefield.

Options #2 and #3


Western journalists did not limit themselves to a pseudo-positive scenario for the Ukrainian authorities. There are also sad forecasts for Zelensky. Positional impasse is one of them. In Western terms, it is called "stalemate". Russia cannot organize an offensive. The explanation for this by foreigners is simple - untrained and poorly motivated fighters are only able to dig trenches and shoot back. Without the support of armored vehicles (everyone remembers that the Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed everything Tanks RF?) An effective offensive is impossible. Time after time it ends with heavy losses and the only way out is to return to a deaf defense. The situation is no better for the nationalists. Equipment is chronically lacking, and every kilometer of conquered territory is given to Bandera more and more difficult. As a result, Zelensky is forced to transfer the fronts to a similar Russian deaf defense. The conflict is frozen, despite the fact that Ukraine, according to the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Oleksiy Danilov, does not "freezer". This is an undesirable option for both the West and the Kyiv regime. Russia has shown resource endowment and readiness to go all the way. Europe, on the other hand, will have serious problems with gas supply both during 2023 and with the onset of next winter. In some states, outrage is growing over the consequences of the sanctions policy. For example, in Rome on November 5, there was a protest of tens of thousands of Italians under the slogan:

“We don't want war. No weapons, no sanctions. Where is the diplomacy?

The Kremlin continues to strike at Ukrainian infrastructure, and the collective West also has to pay for the restoration of destroyed facilities. How long this can last is unknown, but The Economist is betting on Russia's economic exhaustion. In defiance of Western analysts, there is an opinion of Alexei Kudrin regarding the financial prospects of our state. He can hardly be reproached for being biased by the Kremlin. According to Kudrin, this year the fall in Russian GDP will be 3,3%, and probably even 2,9%. The West in its worst dreams predicted a total collapse by December, and even the most balanced estimates expected a 0,8% drop in the gross domestic product. Estimates for next year vary. A drop from XNUMX% in the most optimistic scenario to several percent in the worst case. What do analysts talk about when it comes to Ukraine? There is nothing to rate here at all. The country is one hundred percent dependent on foreign aid, so the hypothetical GDP should be estimated by the degree of favor of Washington and Brussels. The military and financial assistance of the West is not unlimited, and the potential of Russia cannot be compared with the Ukrainian one. How much longer will European leaders and Joe Biden be able to support Zelensky in the volumes he needs? "As many as needed", they answer. And, indeed, in the West, the time to slow down the Ukrainian conflict has not yet come. This was well demonstrated by the G7 forum with a characteristic final statement. The absurdity of rhetoric is understood even in the United States. Rand Corporation expert Samuel Charap writes in this regard:

“The G7 statement is essentially a demand for the total surrender of Russia, which is not a plausible diplomatic outcome. Diplomacy, by definition, involves give and take. Waiting shouldn't be another Versailles treaty."

This means one thing - the strategic lull on the fronts is not yet turning into dividends for Russia.

A third scenario for the development of the Ukrainian crisis is also being considered. According to him, the Russian army in the spring collects a shock fist and advances in the Krivoy Rog region, liberates Slavyansk and Kramatorsk. This will be part of the so-called battle for the Dnieper. Interestingly, The Economist considers this option the least likely. Analysts see a forced peace on the Kremlin's terms as the main risks of a succession of successful Russian offensives. At the same time, Zelensky is not considered an independent figure - the West is forcing him to a diplomatic solution to the issue. What is not known is whether Russia accepts a diplomatic solution to the conflict.

Under any of the three scenarios for the development of the Ukrainian crisis, in the eyes of Western observers there is a genuine fear of the thirst for Russian revenge. Say, rest, gather strength and strike. Not immediately, of course, but still we will demolish the nationalist regime. And this, perhaps, is the main reason why foreign sponsors are still reserved about the peaceful resolution of the situation.

    There is an option with an agreement according to the Sullivan formula!
    There are "rumors" that it is possible that the Zaporozhye NPP will be handed over by the new year, first under the UN and the IAEA, and then stolen, so that the people are not very indignant.
    As for the offensive in the spring, why in the spring, and not in the winter, in the same February, for example? But here everything rests on the number of infantry, what is clearly not enough, and even taking into account the mobilized, this will not be enough. If the second wave is organized, then it is possible that something will be organized by the summer and that is not the fact that it is successful - we are looking at the Avdeevka direction.

      Personally, I am interested in the author’s conclusion from the article that Western experts were confident in the rapid defeat of Ukraine, such as they are not far off. And what, ours were sure of the opposite !? Does the author think the quality of our analytics is excellent?

        With the help of mobilization, Russia deprives the Armed Forces of Ukraine of numerical superiority. We are driving the situation into a positional war, in which we have a technical advantage (art and aviation). Apparently, in the winter there will be a creeping offensive from our side, with the aim of "forcing negotiations"! laughing The Armed Forces of Ukraine, of course, can still mobilize up to a million people and try to arrange a new throw, but they are unlikely to succeed, the scale of the battle is different (there are more numbers on both sides), the depth of the breakthrough is needed more, and for this you need more equipment than there is! Therefore, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will fight to the death as long as they can, based on the fact that the economy of the Russian Federation will not withstand a positional war! bully
        We will have to additionally call on people to join the summer company in order to break through the front, by this moment, if we don’t do stupid things ourselves, then the Armed Forces of Ukraine will be significantly exhausted, it will be possible to try with fired units (from today’s mobiles) to arrange the operation "Bogration", and cover the rear and flanks with new mobs soldier

          The advantage in aviation with artillery does not prevent Khokhols from seizing a bridgehead, then developing an offensive, does not interfere with shelling settlements, headquarters and positions. All advantage is drained by the leadership and generals

            I think the West will pump up the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the winter of air defense and the advantage of the Russian Armed Forces will be reduced to zero. Plus, in winter, Ukrainians will be dragged throughout Europe and an offensive will be launched in the spring

          In fact, there is no one else to mobilize in Russia - this is a huge burden on the economy and society.
          Then, out of these 300 thousand that have already been called up by the middle of winter, up to 25% can be knocked out only due to illness and frostbite.
          I would immediately ban mobilization in rural areas as dangerous and harmful to the normal functioning of these settlements.
          And yes, we have already wrested 300 people from the economy who have no one to replace them.
          And in order to effectively fight one mobilized, 35-40 people are needed in the rear.

        They have red lines where jingoism ends and defeats begin. I also think this winter we will completely lose the remnants of the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions. The line of defense will pass through Armyansk and west of Mariupol. And at this point, peace (surrender) will be signed. Why surrender? Because the Armed Forces of Ukraine will begin to strike throughout the territory of Crimea with Hymers. And either fight at full strength or win or lose power, or sign a surrender and make a concentration camp out of Russia in order to maintain power. The question is not whether we will win or keep the territory. The issue is the preservation of power in the current government

          Both sides can say whatever they want. After all, they drive propaganda against the people (electorate). But, there is reality. I doubt very much that ours, even in the worst case, will give up the south of Zaporozhye and Kherson, since this is a canal and access to the Sea of ​​​​Azov. And Donbass? If they do not take it completely, then the Kremlin will certainly be considered a bunch of balabols. Well, what about Kharkov? Will have to forget. This is the minimum program that is possible. Zaporozhye NPP? Options are possible, including yours and ours and in half. Why is it stalled now? And it is clear to the horse that there is a critical shortage of trained soldiers, as well as weapons and ammunition. Need time. In the Ukrainian Armed Forces, the situation is approximately the same.

    I do not know what sources and examples served the author to describe the three variants of a defeatist position for Russia.
    The only and true outcome of the NWO (CTO, armed opposition to Russia against the West) is the complete denazification and demilitarization of Ukraine. In a short version - the destruction of the country of Anti-Russia. What does this mean for Russia itself? Complete and unconditional surrender of the Zelensky regime. Determination of the new borders of Russia and the inclusion in its composition of primordially Russian territories given to Ukraine in Soviet times. The decision of the fate of the western regions, which primordially hate everything Russian. Border demarcation.
    In ANY case, a favorable outcome for Russia cannot involve any agreements with the Nazi regime or agreements with the West. This should be voiced and acknowledged by officials of the Russian government. Not the Peskovs or Konashenkovs, but the president himself. It was he who set the goal of the NWO as denazification and demilitarization.
    One more point:
    The military and financial assistance of the West is not unlimited, and the potential of Russia cannot be compared with the Ukrainian one.

    Then the question arises by itself: “Why does Russia neglect mutual cooperation and assistance from countries that constantly vote in the UN in favor of Russia?” I mean Iran, North Korea ... Iran has already shown the possibility of producing missiles and UAVs in a separately isolated country that does not have either the resources or energy to the same extent as the Russian Federation. Why do our home-grown capitalists turn up their noses at Iranian production? There are a lot of workers in the DPRK, and the position of the country's leader is, if not friendly towards Moscow, then certainly not tolerant towards Washington.
    With both countries, our state has a common border. In North Korea, in general, there is a railway connection.
    Why is Russia so persistently beating, like a fish on a trolleybus, to ensure the safety of grain transportation to Africa. As far as I know, all the negativity on the Black Continent was created by the West ... It is they who are responsible for the migration of the African population to Europe.
    Why should we erect insurmountable barriers for ourselves when we can resolve a number of issues with Eun, especially since, as they say in Washington, he is a pretty tough guy. Maybe Russian grain and hydrocarbons will contribute to North Korean assistance to the state at war against the West, even if the allies, according to various nominal abbreviations, do not moo, do not calve, but only pout their lips and demand "princely affection."
    You need to be more careful guys. The general goals were drawn for us, let's look into the specific details and find out how the second most powerful Armed Forces turned into an object of mockery and ridicule.
    While there is still an opportunity to gather in the Kremlin, specify promising changes in military doctrine so that the West does not hope that it has intimidated the Russians with a retaliatory nuclear strike, and even more so with a preventive one. The arms are short. If Washington cares about the European economy and the collapsing way of life of the allies, then substitute its own the back butt under the Russian “Sarmatians” and “Vanguards” for “their Brussels homeland” or the endless steppes and expanses of Ukraine, he definitely will not.
    But Russia should not wave its nuclear club left and right, but it must warn ... And in a specific situation, it must be ready to use it against a separately showing off hyena out of shit ... Yes, gentlemen! But only in a specific situation ... Not for this, Comrade Beria rotted scientists and designers in institutes and “sharashkas”, so that we would silently watch how the “fifth column” revels in the lack of will of power, which has chosen places to live OUTSIDE RUSSIA ...

      Here I absolutely agree. I have been writing about this since March. Nuclear weapons are weapons and our grandfathers did not create them so that their grandchildren would die on the battlefields from "ordinary" weapons. There is an advantage to take advantage of. But ... Only after a warning and negotiations through all channels of communication. And before that, blow up a "precautionary" nuclear warhead in the ocean. Pay attention to how the West drischut when it comes to nuclear weapons. The bastards are afraid...

        The effect will be only with a massive nuclear strike. Ukraine will withstand 10 nuclear explosions on its territory. But 50 at a time can bring her to life. Energy strikes are effective if they are massive and constant. 100 arrivals at transformers simply force Ukrainians to switch switches, turn off lines in which short circuits have occurred and calmly change damaged transformers in a week or a decade. Similarly, with three blows to Lvovka Rivne and Chernivtsi. 200 deaths from radiation sickness during the year and a drop in production by the same 000% as during the strike on the energy sector in the last month. But 5 special charges are capable of killing a million Ukrainians and destroying its industrial production. After 50, they are not afraid of threats from Russia, because for 1991 years they have not been properly implemented against Russia's opponents. It is worth remembering that the USSR lost the Afghan war and after that the West decided that Russian resilience had a limit.

        yesterday it was reported that South Korea will supply Ukraine with 20 shells of 155 mm caliber

        The Republic of Korea delivered 100 000mm shells to Canada in July of this year at a price below the market price in exchange for those delivered to Ukraine. They also wrote about a deal to supply a Czech company with $155 billion worth of MANPADS and ammunition. With this money, you can buy 2,9 million 1mm shells and another $155 million will remain for MANPADS. The United States pays for the deal (which means they will sell it at cost), and the Czechs will give it to Ukraine for free. So with the shells of the enemy everything will be in order. According to Wikipedia, South Korea has 900 4000mm caliber guns, of which 155 are self-propelled guns.
        I don’t understand what is stopping us from purchasing in the DPRK

        First, UN sanctions.
        Secondly, it is not known whether the DPRK will agree to supply arms to Russia. The DPRK has neutral-friendly relations with Russia. But the DPRK has neutral-friendly relations with many European countries, for example, with Poland.
        The Ukrainians, due to their stupidity, somehow decided to lick the United States and made some statements against the DPRK. The Koreans explained the recognition of the LPR / DPR with this rudeness on the part of Ukraine.

          At the peak of the fighting in July 2022, 100 shells of 000+ mm caliber were used up by the RF Armed Forces in 152 hours; enough for 48 weeks. Not to say that it is strong ice. In addition, NATO unification plays a cruel joke with Svidomo. The shells are 7 mm caliber, but their range is huge and not every 2 mm cannon can be loaded with any 155 mm shell. But who will bother with this on the Ruin? They shove everything they can shove. As a result, the trunks of the Polish Crabs come off, the German PzH155 tightly wedged, etc. And all because the American projectile of the 155s (namely, these were supplied to the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the summer), the Pakistani 2000 onwards. (mass-supplied now) and Korean 1950 MY. (from future deliveries) if anything unites, then only the caliber.

            in ukrov, the intensity of fire is on average 7 times lower - i.e. enough for 2 weeks.

            For 8 months they were supplied with about 900 thousand shells, 1 million will be enough for 6-7 months. And then they will order more from South Korea.
            As a result, the trunks of the Polish Crabs come off

            One such case is known and the possible reason is low manufacturability - the barrels are made in Poland. They can order trunks in South Korea.

            German PzH2000 tightly wedges

            German self-propelled guns are superior in their characteristics (range, rate of fire) to other self-propelled guns and therefore are used more actively and wear out faster. In Lithuania, the German concern opened a branch and they are already being repaired there.
            pakistani 2020 onwards (mass-supplied now)

        So nothing is like this, I don’t understand what is stopping us from purchasing in the DPRK.

        About a week ago, our embassy in Pyongyang announced that it was exploring the possibility of cooperation with the DPRK, but warned the leadership of this country that it would strictly comply with all US sanctions imposed on this country. Translated from the diplomatic, this is a statement that Russia is not independent as a partner in mutually beneficial cooperation and all deliveries to and from the DPRK require coordination with the United States. Washington promptly stated that it was against the supply of weapons, ammunition, food and footwear from the DPRK to Russia and was ready to take actions to disrupt them. So why should the DPRK once again act against the United States. For example, the Afghan Taliban achieved duty-free trade with Russia for Afghanistan and immediately voted for the withdrawal of our 300 billion in favor of NATO. Now this country, unlike the DPRK, also has the opportunity to trade profitably with Russia, it has begun deliveries of humanitarian aid from the West, and it is possible that several hundred million dollars will be transferred from Nabiullina's gift to the West. And the DPRK, which recognized the LNR and the DNR and voted against the confiscation of 300 billion, receives teachings from the United States and real sanctions-punishment from Russia. According to Kennan's precepts, it is necessary to conduct tough negotiations with Russia, not to give her concessions and to demand from her the fulfillment of all her demands without making promises until all the demands are fulfilled. And after Kennan, the idea arose immediately after Russia fulfilled the conditions for its partners to put forward new demands and conditions for it. Now this is a success and is being implemented by both the Afghan Taliban and the US State Department. Only the DPRK still hopes that more can be achieved from Russia with carrots and Eastern respect than by threatening to supply weapons and ammunition to Ukraine.

      The Russian Federation does not have such opportunities, primarily financial ones, to destroy the state of Ukraine. The volume of financial and military assistance only from the United States has already exceeded the annual military budget of the Russian Federation. It was a strategic miscalculation that there was no calculation for such colossal assistance from the entire West. In fact, the Russian Federation will feel the real consequences of the approaching crisis only next year. Moreover, military success in the Ukrainian theater of operations alone will not remove sanctions and all other problems. The best solution to this problem may be successful databases in the winter campaign, the maximum approach of the line of contact to the Dnieper line and forcing the West to start peace negotiations. If someone is trying to talk about reaching the Polish border, he must understand that 300 mobilization will not solve the problem, it is necessary to talk about at least 000 - 2.5 million armies. We don't have the money for this, and we don't expect it to in the near future.

        The Russian Federation has a lot of opportunities in any organized business. Russia has no volitional political leadership!!! The country is ruled by a team of capitalist ministers and a shadow oligarchy, which every time tells our leaders what they should do and whom they should protect.
        To destroy Ukraine, it is enough to start by blocking the gas pipe.
        Block the country's access to the Black Sea. Destroy the road infrastructure connecting Ukraine with Western Europe. Introduce a complete "blackout" in the country. Systematically launch missile strikes at the locations of Zelensky's structures. Cut off the supply of resources and trade with countries that provide military and financial support to the regime.
        Russia is not obliged to follow anyone's instructions other than those that contribute to the achievement of success in the NWO.
        There is no other way to win.
        If the Russian authorities do not want this, then it is time to implement all the recommendations of the black minister from the United States and change the tricolor to a white flag.
        You can not stop the dog's tail in pieces. And sewing these pieces back is a mockery.

Establish technical cooperation with Iran, North Korea, China.. The West not only holds back Russia, but also South Korea, Turkey, India, Latin America.

After yesterday's article by Skomorokhov, this opus, to put it mildly, Croce, the respected members of the forum understood.

    Everyone was sure of it. Everyone believed that the NWO had been planned from start to finish. Even the most stubborn skeptics believed that the days of the Kyiv regime were numbered!

    But as it turned out, "it was smooth on paper, but they forgot about the ravines, and walk along them"
    As a result, everything that was paid for with the great blood of the soldiers of Russia was fucked up from above.

This is a section of analytics and opinions from local authors based on the information that is available in the media. If you need, without emotions, then you are in the section of history and weapons! Watch Konashenkov in the morning, he tells fairy tales from the Moscow Region without emotion.
        It’s interesting, in the Second World War, everyone present here for such phrases would have been exiled long ago, at best, to cut logs for dugouts))
        As I understand it, you are from a cohort of alternatives like, "what would happen if" The fact is that "History does not tolerate the subjunctive mood." Well, we don’t have the Second World War and not even a war, by the way, this word is now forbidden to be used in RosSmi, in relation to the NWO. Even during the Second World War, people splashed out their emotions and scolded the authorities, only there was no Internet so that they could leave comments.
        You ask the question "what would happen if" not to the local audience, but for example, ask a question to a mustachioed comrade, the mouthpiece of the Supreme, for such answers.
        "Change of leadership in Ukraine is not one of the goals of a military special operation." If you think that there is a war going on, and the local people still think so, then it turns out that in your opinion it is the same as I.V. Stalin during the Second World War would have declared that the goal of the Second World War is not to eliminate the Nazi regime in Germany!
        Ask the mouthpiece of the Ministry of Defense Konashenkov how he managed to shoot down more than 100 pieces in Ukraine, su 25, even if taking into account Europe, in any type of such aircraft there are no more than 60 pieces. In the reports of the Ministry of Defense with all the Ukrainian equipment, this is so! in the second third circle they destroy.

Those. your cheek on the pillow has absolutely nothing to do with it, it’s just that the delirium of the heroes-analysts has loomed into a general trend, which is called whining, moved in, enemies are everywhere and so on. I'm not specifically about you, read above about the general mood here on the site on some pages. Look, on your next door, guys with epaulettes of foremen and simple, ordinary, smart ones are well applied by trikoshny generals. Strategists and analysts who do not see even a hundredth of the info generally puff out their cheeks and write things that are already ridiculous. If this is your opinion, then it’s a sin for you to pay at all. Wash your face)))). Site trend; a little on someone's cheek at the pillow you press, First-eyes flooded in the morning. Second-throw the link and further down the list. Read your writings, you will find everything there. You are here, inmates, fighting for the plus signs, God forbid they put a minus, right away, who, what, flooded their eyes)))))).

Look, get your ass off your chair, good movie)))
                  And here, merged, is another trend of generals and inmates. Come on, rub your cheek brother! And for me, to your joy, it's time to fill your eyes)))))))))

                    that is, in the end you read, but he pretended fool what you don't read.
                    I'm not specifically about you, read above
                    that is, I decided to move out again so that it turns out not specifically about you, but about everyone! Oh well.
                    it’s just that the nonsense of the heroes-analysts has loomed into a general trend called whining, evicted, enemies everywhere and so on.
                    again 25, once again the question is where did you see analysts here in the comments from the local people, are you imagining something?
                    There, on the next one you, trikoshny generals
                    Wipe your eyes and look carefully at your shoulder straps.

                    14-15 years old.
                    loomed in a general trend, which is called whining.
                    you do the same in your comments, read them and understand that you are whining and whining in the same way, only in the other direction. That is, you experience the same emotions as other forum participants.
                    Site trend; a little on someone's cheek at the pillow you press, First-eyes flooded in the morning. Second-throw the link and further down the list.

                    We carefully read your comments and come to the conclusion that you are either thumping, or not friends with your head, or the same couch critic-analyst, who, if asked to give a link, simply merges.
                    Regarding the general trend, he omniscient, everything is gone, everything is bad.

Look, get your ass off your chair, good movie)))

                    Well, unlike you, I have watched both of these films many times and very carefully. But you were watching these films in the back seat, or on a blue melon.
                    Because the hero of this film, Danila Bogrov, did not say such words in the film.
                    But Sergei Bodrov said these words in an interview.
                    "In time of war, one should not speak ill of one's own. Never. Even if they are wrong. Even if your country is wrong in time of war, you must not speak ill of it. It is a very old, simple and primitive principle, but it is true. When the war is not threatens when the war is over - then yes, you can say: this was not so, and it was not so. Let's try to prevent this from happening in the future .. "
                    The question arises for you, where did you see the trends, that the commentators and authors of the articles on the site say that our country is wrong, where did you see that our soldiers are being poured mud here? Watered in the comments, corrupt generals from the Moscow Region for lies, from the Moscow Region, for corrupt politics and for agreements from the military-political leadership of the country, or do you consider them to be your own about which it is either good or nothing. The people in their right to speak out within the law and without violating the rules of the site, as they want to splash out their emotions either in the comments or in the article. Moreover, the majority here have sent and are sending a decent amount of help in money and in things since the age of 14.

      This finalized report has already laid down on the table to the Supreme.

      And as a strategist with vast experience, he analyzed everything and made the right decision ... I even find it difficult to remember his “main” victories ... Maybe when he explained why the Kursk sank? Or, when he told Karaulov how he defended the KGB archives in Dresden with his comrades, sharing cartridges with them and leaving himself 12 pieces in a pistol clip (according to the number of stairs that separated him from the brutal crowd):

      According to other sources, it went like this:
      On December 5, 1989, an angry mob storms the district office of the Stasi in Dresden. Right around the corner is the KGB building. It also comes into the view of the demonstrators. The situation is heating up. As an officer on duty, Putin is forced to stand at the door to block the way for the protesters. He needs advice and support. First, he calls Berlin, but no one can help him there. Then he contacts the Soviet Union and asks the Chekists to protect the army units. However, the duty officer replies that such interference is impossible without Moscow's permission, and utters two words that are deeply embedded in Putin's memory: "Moscow is silent." Putin sets himself and his comrades to the fact that they will have to defend themselves. However, everything ends peacefully. Putin is shocked.

      Judging by the "command" voice and manner of giving orders (orders), there could be another option (after which the idea comes to get a taxi driver - but not fate):
      He worked quietly, peacefully in the trade representative's canteen... The most brutal atrocity that I had to deal with was cutting amateur sausage. And suddenly - here you go! Lions!... Tigers!... Angry mob... Everything ends peacefully...

      Have you personally tried to think a little and calculate?
      The protracted NWO, therefore, in your opinion, was not included in the calculations of the West? But does this mean that such a state of affairs was and is included in Russia's calculations?
      Are they now forced to spend a bunch of resources?
      But Russia does not do this? Russia does not spend a lot of resources? A bunch of weapons, ammunition? Russia does not receive one package of sanctions after another? Are not Russian soldiers daily die on the battlefield? Isn't the Russian economy slipping into recession due to the long-term NWO? Isn't it, this economy, instead of functioning normally, is forced to be transferred to a military footing (and this transfer, oh, how will come back to haunt us in the future!)?
      Or maybe the industrial, military and financial potential of Russia is comparable to the West? These unfortunate 2% of Russian GDP from the world?
      So who benefits from prolonging the war? The answer is unequivocal - only to the West. The Western plan "anaconda" has worked flawlessly, Russia is subject to planned slow economic strangulation. And the longer this war lasts, the more chances the West will have to win it. In every sense and respect.

      No, dear. NATO's goal is to draw Russia into an endless war with Ukraine, for 10-15 years, as it was in the Balkans. They will slow down the conflict from time to time, with all sorts of Minsk-3, -3 ... -25, promising to lift sanctions on grain, fertilizers, oil, gas, timber ... Then they will stir up again without fulfilling promises and pushing Ukraine to violate the agreement. Long and tedious, it is also beneficial for them that Russians and Ukrainians kill each other.

The fact that our propaganda does not allow other statements about Crimea does not mean that everyone there wanted to go to Russia. The majority chose prosperity, and in the rest of the outskirts they were waiting not for the Russian world, but for a freebie, they thought the West would give a rogue, it didn’t work out, so they begged for the remnants of the nationally oriented elite of our invasion in February, so that they could solve the problem. it’s time to grow up in the end.

It’s like in 1905 they blamed everything on stupid generals, it was hard to admit that the feudal Japanese, with the help of the West, having rearmed, gave us such great snot. You need to know our people in order to understand why it happens exactly this way and not according to our wishes. Shakhnazarov correctly said, we do not need all of Ukraine, it will only ruin us. The whole history of our neighborhood speaks of only one thing: when we are strong, we seize Ukraine and multiply, when we are weak, all the filth comes to us from there. Unfortunately, we are not strong now, we need to understand this, and not hype.

Some are almost smooth, while others are clumsy. Propagandist Dmitry Kulikov, as a prime example of this. When he speaks on TV programs, for this time I switch to another channel. Such loyalty and justification of absolutely all the actions of the authorities, you rarely hear from anyone else.

    So far, everything is going according to the scenario of the West. The capture of the former large Ukrainian cities does not fit into their understanding of the course of the military conflict.

    Many, oh, how many questions accumulate among the people in the NWO ....
    The main question is: how not to lose the cheerfully started war in Ukraine!? ..
    Additional questions
    1. What was the point of capturing the Gostomel airfield near Kyiv, if there was no task of capturing government buildings in Kyiv, isolating the Ukroführer and the headquarters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine? Capture, then shamefully retreat along the entire front? ..
    2. Why, after the retreat from Kyiv and the transition of the war into a protracted war, did they start disabling the critical infrastructure of Ukraine so late?
    3. Armament and replenishment with militants and mercenaries enters Ukraine through border crossings on the border with Poland, Romania, where the change of wheeled wagon pairs takes place. Why haven't these crossing points and infrastructure for changing wheelsets been taken out of service?
    4. The war cannot be won by local skirmishes and the destruction of the enemy's DRG. War is won by defeating the whole army or most of it. Hence the question: why, after the liberation of Kherson, a regrouping of troops was not carried out with a decisive offensive on Nikolaev and Odessa? Here they will immediately answer us: there were not enough troops ... Then the following question immediately arises: where did the troops withdrawn from Kyiv go? They were sent to the rear!?... From Kherson to Nikolaev, 61 km, to Odessa - 145. What, the troops withdrawn from Kyiv would not be enough to strike at Nikolaev and Odessa with access to Transnistria? All this is very doubtful, gentlemen.
    5. Where is our reconnaissance, why do we allow the enemy to concentrate troops on the direction of attack, why do not we strike at the places of concentration of enemy troops ...
    And there are still a lot of such questions on SVO.
    In conclusion
    We are being told from all stands that we are losing the war because of the low number of troops at the front.
    A little help
    1. Suvorov took Izmail with a significant numerical superiority of the Turks over the Russian troops. The number of Ishmael's garrison is about 35 thousand, of which 12 thousand are selected troops, Janissaries. Russians 2. General Yudenich in 1916 took Erzurum in winter, frost was 30 degrees or more, highlands - 3000 m, with an insignificant excess of Russian troops for such an operation: Russian troops - 75 thousand, Turkish troops - 60 thousand.
    3. Zhukov defeated the Japanese along Khalkhin Gol with a significant superiority of the Japanese forces.
    4. Quite recent events in Ukraine, when the poorly armed, small in comparison with the army of Ukraine, the LPR and DPR militia defeated the Ukrainian army near Saur-mogila and Debaltseve ...
    What, there are no Suvorovs, Yudenichs, Rokossovskys, Zhukovs left with us? ...
    Anyone who is interested can look through history and find many examples when the Russian, Soviet army smashed a significantly superior enemy in strength and numbers. You can also expand knowledge to world history, so you can find even more similar examples.
    So, the question of the balance of forces and the number of our troops capable of defeating the enemy and winning in Ukraine remains open ...
    One thing is obvious, positional warfare leads Russia to lose the war. Suffice it to recall the Russo-Japanese War of 1905 and the events in Russia after the end of the war.
    Do we want a repetition of 1905 in Russia, to which our former "sworn friends" and the entire course of the war in Ukraine are so stubbornly pushing us!?...

      What was the meaning of the capture of the Gostomel airfield near Kyiv,
      - probably they wanted to transfer troops, equipment and ammunition to it by transport aircraft. Forgot about the Ukrainian artillery, alas. It would be better if they landed from the reservoir directly at the Kyiv hydroelectric power station, captured it and the banks of the Dnieper / reservoir on both sides (would connect their eastern Chernihiv group with the western Chernobyl group), then blackmail the entire city of Kyiv by draining water, breaking the dam and hollowing out all the Kyiv bridges from there across the Dnieper to tear the capital in two.

    From the Russian side, the only way out that will minimize or even take advantage of this special military operation is to create a grouping of sufficient numbers to defeat Ukraine. What kind of strength is needed for this and what needs to be done for this, I don’t know, I didn’t graduate from the General Staff Academy.
    But the fact that the soldiers who returned from a lost war will try to ask the authorities for this is absolutely inevitable. And part of society will support them in this.
    What will actually happen? I am absolutely sure that there will be an agreement like the Khasavyurt ones, that Solovyov's propaganda will be turned on at full capacity and they will pour from the TV that this is the best achievement in the last 30 years.
    Well, to be honest, I even agree to this, if only this garbage would end soon, because there is no belief that our current government can lead our country to victory.

    I read the article and what they write on the forum: some kind of single impulse of grabbing-imperial and predatory moods and a vision of the development of the situation. For some reason, everyone believes that the Russian army should attack somewhere. But for the purposes of the SVO, only the liberation of the lands of the Donbass and the LPR is indicated. There, yes, not shaky, not rolled, but an offensive is underway. The fact that Kherson and Zaporozhye regions ended up in the Russian Federation is a consequence of the battle for Donbass. The capture (acquisition) of new territories is a burden on the country's budget. That's what teachers, doctors and other state employees will say if their salaries are not indexed by the end of the year? What about pensioners? And, as Kherson showed, not all of them, even those who voted for joining Russia, were sincere. And what to say about the more western regions of Ukraine - we get a partisan-sabotage movement. Russia will build there, pay social benefits to the detriment of indigenous citizens, and our security forces will be shot in the back. Moreover, after nine months of war, many relatives in Ukraine died or became crippled. It is clear that they do not like Russia. Therefore, there will be no grandiose offensives like in the Second World War. There will be the liberation of the DPR and LPR and a positional war to grind the human and material resources of the Nazis and NATO. And let the Europeans and Americans restore the infrastructure of Ukraine and maintain it. As they get tired of it, the war will end with the approval of the new constitution of Ukraine as a non-bloc, demilitarized state and outlawed Nazi ideology.

      It's just not clear to you.
      And why did you decide that post-war Ukraine will become a non-bloc and demilitarized state?
      In my opinion, just the opposite - if, at the end of the war, our troops do not stand on the entire territory of Ukraine and there is no complete political control over the Kyiv regime, Ukraine will become an extremely militarized state (larger than, for example, Israel), and even hastily conclude military alliances with whom only possible (even though it is unlikely to be accepted into NATO).

      For example, South Korea (after the signing of the armistice agreement in 1953) was not part of any military blocs, but at the same time it has the 7th largest army in the world and entered into a military alliance with the United States.

    And there’s no need to look for a middle ground and it simply doesn’t exist. In the summer they had a failure, but now everything can be the other way around if the surrender of positions is not stopped. Mobilization should have been carried out earlier and even instead of surrendering Kyiv and Kharkov. because they didn’t give Kherson and Nikolaev could be taken in the summer. And it’s not those who made the decision to give up positions that are to blame, and just like on the Kursk submarine, it turned out that they themselves were to blame for blowing themselves up like that and drowned. An absurd version that suited the top. But the truth will eventually come out anyway.

    As an option, in order to protect the units of Russian troops (let's say up to a company) located at the forefront from high-precision artillery and missiles and allow them to hold positions and gradually move forward, you can build self-propelled strongholds with a high level of protection against hitting cumulative projectiles of mines and missiles which can withstand such strikes and, moreover, their protection can be quickly restored by the forces of the units located in them. The average size of such strong points is 50 by 50 m and the height is 4-5 m. They can be equipped with artillery and rocket launchers, air defense systems and autonomous life support systems with the necessary supplies of water and food. The average speed is 5km/h. The power plant will allow them to move in the direction of the enemy or maneuver, albeit at low speed, but nevertheless provide maneuverability on the battlefield, unlike stationary fortifications.

        There is nothing fantastic in this proposal. In fact, this is a land analogue of large ships only with reliable armor protection. Here the scale factor begins to affect and such a machine will be almost impossible to destroy with modern means of warfare. The speed of 5 km / h is too high and 1 km / h for maneuvering and several hundred meters per day towards the enemy. Such pressure will force the Hoh-Lov to continuously move backwards without giving them the opportunity to gain a foothold and create a stable line of defense.
