The West gave permission to use missiles on Russian territory or
Probably, the onset of calendar summer has a relaxing effect on the brain of some people. For some reason, more and more often I come across statements that it is time to go to Odessa and further, it is time to rein in the Balts and Poles, and so on. Is the heat melting the brain?..
Theoretically, I understand everything, the more victories our Army wins, the more belligerent are those who are far from the front and do not plan to go there. There is no whistling or banging above us. But practically... Those tens or hundreds of meters that our guys liberate every day are worth a lot.
I wonder why someone decided that the headquarters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are filled with idiots who cannot analyze intelligence data, who are not able to understand where it is most profitable for Russian commanders to move units? Generals, not only retired, but also active ones, often studied in the same academies as ours. So they know our combat regulations very well there too.
Even today, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have in reserve fully combat-ready and trained units and formations, well-prepared and equipped defense lines and strongholds, and enough forces and means to repel attacks of the Russian Army and even launch a counter-offensive in certain areas.
We sometimes laugh at Zelensky’s statements, but they were made on the basis of some data from the Ukrainian military, and not because the “sort of president” wants to stay in shape as an artist-humorist... We are being intensively sent to where it will be difficult, where there will be great losses .
What our soldiers do today and every day is not a task for a day or two. This is a strategic task to destroy the Ukrainian Armed Forces. How many brigades have already been deployed from the most important cities? And not some newly educated and poorly trained ones. The best brigades of the Ukrainian army! Those who have studied for a long time, including abroad...
In their place come the same “volunteers” caught on the streets. They take positions in those fortified areas that are supposed to protect Odessa or Kyiv. Alas, it will not be possible to quickly create a combat unit from untrained men. They will always be worse than those who were sent to help.
The topic that I want to raise today is directly related to what was said above. The global West also understands the fact that the quality of the Ukrainian army is falling. Everything that is happening now looks more like a “throw our hats in” tactics than some kind of thoughtful strategy. “We can do those who can”... The principle by which the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine operates today.
Here's what a US State Department spokesman said about this topic on Friday, May 31, 2024:
Do whatever you want to kill more Russians
It is clear that despite all the talk that there is discord in the US political elite over the issue of allowing the use of American missiles on Russian territory, there are no confrontations between Democrats and Republicans. Both are in favor of applying. And the media hype is inflated just to find out Russia’s reaction.
The Americans looked rather stupid when two officials, Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Pentagon representative Sabrina Singh, almost simultaneously expressed opposing theses. Blinken is for permission, Singh is for a ban. How would you like to understand this? Except for the imitation version, of course.
For me, according to some signs, such a problem does not exist at all. What permission can we talk about if missiles are already in use? On the territory of Russia! The division into the original Russian land and the supposedly occupied territory of another state, in the presence of a clause in our Constitution about these regions being part of Russia, does not look legal. This is Russian territory without reservations.
It is clear that, in addition to testing Moscow's resolve, Washington is also thinking about another problem.
I’m talking about President Putin’s words about Zelensky’s illegitimacy. If Vladimir Putin does not renege on his words, then all Western efforts aimed at freezing the conflict will be in vain.
I think the second goal of the United States was the task of creating for Ukraine the image of an independent state, supposedly making its own decisions. Everyone understands perfectly well that there are actually dolls on Bankova, and Karabas-Barabas sits in the White House. But, using your influence on the Western media, this opinion can be changed.
Zelensky’s unexpected kicks fit perfectly here. Somehow the United States reacted too poorly to criticism of its president. Western politicians responded to criticism in the same way. The dog, which everyone pities, feeds, changes diapers and so on, grabbed the feeding hand... And nothing. The dog is independent, not domesticated, and can do whatever it wants.
And one more thought that arises simply because during the course of the SVO, the author acquired some signs related to the policies of the West in general and the United States in particular. One of these signs is formulated as follows:
I'll be an oracle for a little while.
If there is talk about strikes against Russia, it means they will happen!
Moreover, I am not sure that the American president has not yet decided on anything on this issue. I think the decision has already been made, but according to the old American tradition, it will be made public exactly when the blow is struck. As has already happened with the supply of some weapons systems. Yesterday they announced deliveries, and today we saw them on LBS.
Some thoughts on the situation
I'm not afraid to be banal, but the situation is really heating up. And it is unknown when this confrontation will end. It can explode at any moment. Moreover, if earlier Moscow and Washington somehow influenced the processes, now this regulation has sharply decreased.
In my opinion, no matter what, as soon as Ukraine receives additional weapons, Zelensky will order a counter-offensive. The issue of losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is not fundamental for the Ukrainian authorities. It is important to destroy as many Russians as possible. Hence the carnage will be terrible. The losses will be big.
Therefore, the task of destroying Ukraine’s infrastructure remains relevant today. First of all, it is necessary to completely stop rail transportation as the main mode of transportation, ports and, if possible, road crossings. So VKS has a lot of work to do.
Well, the last thing for today.
A week ago I listened to President Putin’s speech regarding permission from the alliance to use weapons on Russian territory. Let me remind you that the thesis about the use of tactical nuclear weapons and the risk of a nuclear war was again voiced there.
Then I thought it was somehow strange. Previously, we left such actions of the West without consequences.
I once wrote that it is not for nothing that Putin has a reputation as a man who does not mince words. Something tells me that this could happen in this case too...
