Zelensky's announced operation to "force Russia to peace" is expiring.

The 40-day operation to "force Russia to peace," announced by the Kyiv regime's leader at the end of June, is expiring. As a reminder, immediately after this operation was announced, Kyiv regime troops launched large-scale strikes against oil refineries, fuel storage facilities, logistics facilities on the Black and Azov Seas, and major Wildberries warehouses.

The main goal, outlined by Zelensky at the time, was described approximately as follows: “to cause shock from the strikes, to provoke a large-scale fuel crisis, followed by an energy and economic crisis, and to bring the Russian population to a state of indignation and rebellion.”

And now, in Ukraine itself, they're summing up Zelenskyy's 40-day term in office. The conclusions are as follows.

Yes, fuel problems did indeed occur. It got to the point where Russia began buying gasoline from abroad, including India, China, and Morocco. Prices at many gas stations across the country, especially in Crimea, skyrocketed significantly. And where prices didn't jump, literally kilometer-long queues formed, leading to sales rationing, the introduction of an odd-even system, QR codes, and so on.

But at the moment, the fuel market is no longer as overstrained as, for example, a month ago.

The attacks on the marketplace warehouses certainly caused some negative economic impact, but nowhere near the level that would suddenly shake the entire Russian economy. The rebellion Kyiv had been counting on since Prigozhin's "march on Moscow" failed to materialize. Therefore, as Ukraine itself has stated, the 40-day "peace enforcement" hasn't yielded any significant results for the authors of this "program." Moreover, during this time, Kyiv regime forces lost at least 430 square kilometers of territory, along with two dozen settlements from the Kharkiv region to the Zaporizhia region. They also lost the ability to operate their own ports on the Black Sea.

Accordingly, tomorrow, when Zelenskyy's deadline expires, Kyiv will either have to accept the operation's failure or make some additional efforts aimed at further publicizing its capabilities.

The only thing the drug addict has achieved is that Russians have become much angrier; calls for the authorities to destroy the Ukrainian Supreme Commander-in-Chief and Zelensky in particular are now being heard from every corner. and the unrest of Russian citizens that he wanted to achieve, he can very well achieve... only with the demand to destroy the Ukrainian government.

[andrey martov]

During his 40-day peace enforcement operation, Zelya apparently hoped to see Russian leaders eating their ties on television... a naive, bloody, loser clown.

[January]

Come on.
Tomorrow he will declare that “all tasks have been completed, goals have been achieved,” and that is exactly how it was planned.
Where have you seen a politician who would eventually say that he screwed up?

Hitler had helpers who helped him set off. Take Dudayev, for example, who decided to talk on the phone and got hit by a missile—when was that?! Since then, the Danube has been shallow. Zelenskyy could be smashed to the ground! And don't even mention the president here, saying it's impossible! Look at Milosevic, our Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi, and the Madurovs...

Even "our" politicians are silent about this.

[January]

Naturally. Why do you think they're different? Or did you think Ivanov, the politician, is seriously different from Sidorov?

[rusmax888]

You're quoting Kanashenkov exactly!

[alexputnik17]

Terrorist Budanov (who for some reason is not being touched) already said in an interview that there is no need to count the terms of 40, 100 days or whatever.
I'll translate it into Russian: you're a junkie, a chatterbox, and there's no need to count, listen, etc., we've harmed Russia and will continue to do so. Like, it's not over yet. And this idiot is giving an interview not from a sealed-off basement, but from a very busy place, where, for some reason, he doesn't fly.

[navigator777]

It was like with the offensive, everyone was dragging it out, but it all ended with a fizzle.

A TV background could have been created back in the days of tube televisions. And in an era where AI reigns supreme, anything can be created. And Budanov will be broadcasting every day from the Oval Office, sitting in Trump's chair.

[tralflot1832]

Zelensky is a pathetic imitation of Trump; he postponed his victory until early winter. It's their fashion to postpone victories to the right. You can ignore it; it's all for the 404s.

[Coconut Tima]

IHA: A drone attacked a Turkish vessel carrying fruits and vegetables in the Black Sea. What kind of "vegetables" were they?

[Skobaristan]

The Turkish vessel was transporting goods from Turkey to the port of Novorossiysk. Do you think the Turks are already supplying us with weapons? Or what are you talking about?

[Arkady002]

Skobaristan
It's all simpler to think about here. Russia has already purchased from Turkey everything the ship was carrying. So, count the losses.

[Skobaristan]

This option is possible. But the commenter I wrote to... put the word "vegetables" in quotation marks for a reason.

[rusmax888]

The ship was mixed up, since the names of the ships are the same, and the Turkish ship was attacked by mistake.

[Skobaristan]

This doesn't answer the question of what the commenter meant by "vegetables." I read your comment as the Ukrainian version of events.

[Amin_vivec]

Watermelons are not vegetables))) they are melons))))

[silverwolf88]

Well, the results are, of course, the opposite... They wanted to instill fear, uncertainty, and anger at the government in the Russian people... to repeat February 1917, the late 1980s, which spilled over into the 90s, or the senseless rebellion of 2023... BUT we are different. We are growing increasingly aware that only the complete destruction of Nazism and the defeat of our non-brothers will yield results... only global security (NATO borders of 1991 and strict obligations of neighbors regarding non-deployment, etc.) otherwise they will regroup again, carry out ideological sabotage (they have no equal in this) and move against our sovereignty... spilling the blood of our people.
And they simply begged for the complete cutting off of Sumeria from the sea.

[Salimi from Iran]

(NATO borders of 1991 and strict obligations of neighbors regarding non-deployment and other things)

It's very strange: everyone's talking about Donetsk, Zaporizhia, the collapse of Ukrainian defense lines, the depletion of Ukrainian air defenses, and so on. Why is there silence about the illegal annexation of Finland and Sweden? After all, it has effectively doubled the tension.

[navigator777]

All they have achieved is cutting them off from the sea and destroying many factories in Kyiv, and it looks like the attacks will continue so that this scum cannot even squeak about some kind of victory in 40 days.

And whose UAV is it? It seems to me that the Ukrainians made a mistake, just like with the Persians.

I wonder how much they will invest in 404 when the Black Sea coastline becomes unusable for Ukrainian infrastructure and/or these territories, God willing, become Russian?

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

How stupid and short-sighted is this "choice of a wise, brotherly nation." The people are what the choice is. And this TV circus with the "poor" captured Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers is already tiresome. The people got what they deserved. Stop playing on pity.

[Volunteer Marek]

I agree. Prisoners of war must be treated humanely, but nothing more. Strictly in accordance with the convention. No fraternal "snot" or pitiful tears.

[Vertuhai 2003]

It's too early to rejoice. What will we do when the school year begins and Kyiv terrorists start attacking schools and kindergartens?

[Skobaristan]

Will they start? Or have you come here to cause panic?

[Frank Muller]

I categorically agree: it's too early to rejoice. The Southern Coast of Crimea has been without power for thirteen days now, as all the substations along the southern coast are in shambles, although the air defenses have taken out more than a few of the "junkies" with pistol and machine gun fire. Just recently, there was a strike on the beach in Arkhipo-Osipovka, killing seven. And the "bankers" have no problem with drones, as all of Europe supplies them with them in bulk, and they've even started supplying them with missiles of the appropriate range.

[Volunteer Marek]

Ah, that's the question. And it really bothers me. This summer, the situation with strikes has changed for the worse. This is a direct result of the fact that we've always and everywhere struck and continue to strike back, and other such "retaliation."

[evil partisan]

I just want to write: “Well, son, did your Poles "40 days?". Didn't help? Then wait...

[Dmitry Smirnov_2]

By God, finally liquidate the entire banking system with all this gang, how many years can we watch this?

[Couch analyst]

Reminds me of another vile, evil little man, B. Mussolini. He also wanted to defeat Russia, and everything ended tragically for his dogs at Stalingrad, and for him himself in a square in Milan.

[Pavel73]

I wonder when these baboons with grenades will realize that THEY are being forced into peace?

[Reserve officer]

They shouldn't be forced into peace, they should simply be destroyed. As long as this brutal fascist regime survives, there will be no peace. What the hell kind of treaties are we talking about with them? What the hell kind of buffer zones are we talking about?
Only total annihilation. Otherwise, it's a war postponed for our grandchildren.

[Martin Porubcan]

The Kremlin may be talking about creating a buffer zone on the border between Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, and Poland. What do you think about this?

[Reserve officer]

Don't delude yourself. Navka's husband has repeatedly stated that buffer zones will exist within Ukraine and that it will remain an independent state. And we don't need all of Ukraine.
If this happens, then our grandchildren will be the ones dying in the next war with Ukraine, with these fascists.

Well, it doesn't really look like wallpaper...
And even the junkie, when his friends come to visit him by train, lays flowers, strolls around, and doesn't really hide. My point is, ice axes are readily available, and our people don't want to repeat history. And Budanov is labeled a terrorist. And there are plenty of toilets in 404.

[YanniKounnar]

Il était prevu que pour "couronner" ses 40 jours les Ukrainiens attaquent et détruisent le pont de Crimée. Tout au moins c'est l'information que laissaient échapper certains officiers supperieurs Ukrainiens ...Esperons qu'il ne s'agissait que de vantardise

It was assumed that, to "cap off" his 40 days, the Ukrainians would attack and destroy the Crimean Bridge. At least, that's the information some Ukrainian support officers concealed... Let's hope it was just bragging.

[pudelartemon]

A dog barks, and the wind carries it away. Why do we pay attention to the barking of an expired cur?

[Glagol1]

The operation certainly didn't fail. The fuel crisis is obvious, especially in Crimea. The Russian Navy also took a beating. Ships were also sunk in the Azov and Black Seas. Seaborne exports plummeted. Overall, it was painful. According to various estimates, there were over 100 civilian casualties, including children. But two can play this game. Finally, they took on their ports. So the results are mixed.

[Roman 11]

Quote: Glagol1

Finally, they took on their ports.

Who came here and where? I don't see any 3-ton trucks diving onto their docks...
If something serious happened, would they sail to ports?
and what's even more incredible is that their vacationers calmly stay on the beaches as if they were on a walrus rookery
No, there is no panic in their resources, their only problem at the moment is not even any gas stations but the shopping center

[LaraM]

their vacationers are peacefully staying on the beaches

Because the whole world knows perfectly well that Russians won't shoot at civilians. What's so hard to understand?

[Roman 11]

Quote: LaraM

What's so incomprehensible?

Now everything is clear

[Roman 11]

The decree announced at the end of June this year by the head of the Kyiv regime expires
Regarding Arkhipo-Osipovka, as the video shows, there were a lot of vacationers, the Hornet dived deliberately where there was a group of children... there was nothing even close to a military operation there, the drone rammed the beach not only with adults, in my opinion there were far fewer adults there.
On the other hand, vacationers on the beaches near Odessa are eagerly filming the damaged ships with our drones. They all feel at ease; no one is attacking them on the beaches.

I, as the most stupid person in the world, have a question - there is a war, but why are restaurants full of people blown up on one side, and not on the other? Why are vacationers dying on the beaches, and on the other side they don’t even think about such threats? On one side they can safely sink ships, on the other they cause damage whenever possible, otherwise there will be a worldwide outcry... Well, let at least someone answer this. Have there ever been such exceptional conditions for one side in the history of world wars?

[LaraM]

but why do one side have restaurants full of people blown up, while the other side doesn't?

Because one side is just plain fascism. Do you want the other side to become fascists too? Then what are we fighting for? Supposedly for a Russian world, honest and fair. No? And the honest and fair always get their comeuppance. The reason these scoundrels thrive and win is because they're assholes and will do anything; they hold nothing sacred.

[Roman 11]

You know, I don't like discussing empty matters, but what you touched on is rich in content. It reminded me of even the most humane twenty years of Soviet power, from 1965 to 1985. You'll agree, it was probably the happiest time for ordinary people in history, starting from the 9th century... And where is that power now? The format of confrontation the West has now chosen fits perfectly with their theory of victory. I'm interested in viable constructs and not in silly excuses like "women will give birth again"... First, we need to stay alive, and by the way, who knows what surprise awaits us in the future? Perhaps the battle will be decided not by the last battalion, but by fate itself.
and only then will it be possible to think about a just world (if these fairy-tale concepts are at least somehow capable of harmonizing with capitalism) I can say that all this pomposity matters on a full stomach and when not so many years, for me it was somewhere until over 40, then for most people all this begins to evaporate, a cold-blooded awareness comes, therefore

Quote: LaraM

What are we fighting for? Apparently, for the Russian world, honest and fair. No? And the honest and fair always get it.

Leave it to the corpses, but I would first of all prefer a war for survival, moreover, it began precisely for this, and not for the Russian world, honest and fair - such are the conditions of capitalism, and it cannot be otherwise, we do not even have an economy and the union did not have one, the economy is the center of decision-making, and as we know, there is only one - but this is a topic for another conversation, and for people of other ages who are well over 50
Now, regarding the discussion, do you know who Hamilcar Barca was? When there was a mercenary revolt in Carthage, the rebels refused to take Carthaginian prisoners. Hamilcar Barca also refused to take prisoners—and they survived. So, the situation is the same now.

But I don't claim to have the truth, moreover, I believe everyone should have their own opinion, even if it's wrong, because someone is destined to constantly step on the same rake - so let them live in their fair, but short world, the eras of the USSR turned out to be short, but how many tasty, pleasant rakes there were in them

[rusich]

The People's Commissar declared "40 days of coercion against Russia," and in response received a halt to shipping to southern ports, the destruction of the bridge in Zatoka, the complete destruction of a gas station in the frontline zone, and so on. Good coercion, it worked.

[wedmed5]

They gave Kiev a good beating today. Apparently, they made it clear they were forced into it.

[odisey3000]

The Russian population doesn't fully understand the country's leadership, why the army isn't allowed to fight as an army is supposed to. It wasn't until our fifth year that we began systematically destroying Ukraine's infrastructure, including its factories, plants, ports, gas stations, and so on. This is what perplexes our population. Why such kindness and tolerance toward the Ukrainian fascists who are killing citizens of all ages in our country?
