Today, we examine the latest from Kursk as Ukrainian forces rush to close the pocket thought to contain thousands of Russian troops, and we hear how Ukraine is preparing an anticipated Prisoner of War exchange and why the issue of returning Asov fighters is now a political question for President Zelensky.

There is some acceptance from the Kursk population towards the Ukrainian offense. many folks in the Kursk Oblast speak Ukrainian and identify as Ukrainians.
It is like the silicone curtain channel said the other day "Russia is not a nation, it is a territory". Who cares who owns it, and which shape the territory has.
Yes of course but the same can be said about the Donbas region of Ukraine having citizens which identify as Russian and speak Russian, and other regions of Eastern Europe its no surprise given they were all under the one flag not that long ago.
I just wish this war would end so people could stop dying. There’s not going to be an outcome where either side is happy, both have lost too much already.
And this war is also beginning to hurt other countries too my country has had a housing crisis going on a decade it’s impossible to get a house but we have taken in so many refugees. Men also not real men like the heroes who defend their home but ones who flee for opportunity.
said no one ever
Ahahhaha
They speak Ukrainian because the obelisk was originally within the Ukrainian boarder historically speaking that is.
I appreciate listening to your programming. We get so little actual Ukrainian war reporting in the US.
Same here in Canada

The river may make a good international border with the added bonus that a lot of the residents are of Ukrainian descent live in the area south of the river.
The Dnieper river is a possibility. This little stream south of Kursk is inconsequential. In a few weeks, this operation will barely be a footnote.

Ukraine launched the Kursk offensive and, despite trops shortages, lengthened the combat line just to capture a score of villages?
I don't believe it. I think Ukraine wanted to capture the Kursk NPP in Kurchatov, but they failed.
Neither Ukraine nor The Telegraph discuss this. Funny that...
I doubt the Ukrainians were ever interested in the Kursk NPP.
The UK and Europe need to do more to help Ukraine 🇺🇦
How much more ? 300B is not enough ?
With what ?
@@JohnCSmith-lp1qr Well EU & UK haven't sent 300B so yes we could send lots more and as % GDP is not much for the UK less the 0.5% much cheaper than fighting a war ourselves.
Dom literally just said my country is giving the profit off interest rates to Ukraine and planning another ammunition "crowdfunding".
@@earlofmiddlesex3129 We won't have to fight a war: this is just fearmongering from people who want to continue this pointless war.
It 'falls' in the sense that it actually fell.

Your pod cast is very informative and factual.
There is little or no information on Canadian news channels about the war in Ukraine. Right now all eyes on on the U.S presidential elections and our cdn media seem to forget their are other important events happening in the world today. From Montreal, Quebec, Canada

No way would he like Russia get away with this.
He would be on the front lines with the Ukraine soldiers.

Er...OK. Meanwhile: "Over the past WEEK, the Russian army has CAPTURED an area of about 80 square kilometers and SEIZED CONTROL of the settlements of Mykolaivka, Zhelanne, Orlivka, Lysychne, Ivanivka and Svyrydonivka, according to DeepState - Russia’s MOST SIGNIFICANT military advance since May." "Based on the intensity of the assaults, it can be assumed that the Russian army intensified their attacks in this area after they realized that the main part of the Ukrainian reserves was ENGAGED ON ANOTHER SECTION OF THE FRONT,” said Alexey Alshanskiy of the Conflict Intelligence Team (CIT), an independent organization that conducts open-source investigations of the Russian military.
Don't look there, look over here! But by all means, keep celebrating your empty Potemkin...what was it? "Words"!?
Great show (from Italy) Morenets characteristically lucid.
Slava Ukraina!

Slave Ukraine?! That sounds eminent.

Thanks for another great episode. Listened since almost the very beginning (Brit currently in Montenegro)
Good work again guys 👍
Fascinating times we're living in. Imagine living to see the actual downfall of the Soviet Union and then a few years later the downfall of Russia itself!
Zelensky deserves not one dollar from USA. tyrant!!!
I'm glad that russian bloggers are now occasionally correct. I wonder if they're just afraid now.That ukraine is about to seize saint petersburg.
It's getting harder for them to deny the nose on their face.
How delusional 😂😂😂
scared shitless - it's a national pastime
They might be afraid of that, but unfortunately, it's not realistic. And I don't think Ukrainians want to.
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅very funny
I use ground news to get the news faster than news outlets that are 3-4 days out of date, i also use a youtube channel that varifies information from both sides and ukraine soldiers on the ground to get information daily about the Ukraine war.
Military Summary Channel? and New Atlas? On CZcams.
It's in the UK's interest that Ukraine gets the best possible deal - releasing restrictions on Stormshadow Missiles will help achieve that objective.
With the internet and snail mail (remember that) if only there was a way to telling our politicians that. I mean they don't mind UK weapons being used against defenceless Palestinians in Gaza but not Ukraine, I mean, in one light think of the money they could make in backhanders....
@@evilaquamanbecause they aren’t worried about Gazans fighting back.
SLAVA UKRAINE!
Is the root of Slavik, slave?
@@user-zf4uz3hy8zYes, that’s what the Vikings called them as they kidnapped and sold them into slavery. That was over 1000 years ago. Some people haven’t evolved since.
Correct 😅
Venecia started slave trade with the east.
@@user-zf4uz3hy8z- it’s the other way around. The word “slave” comes from an ancient name “Slověne” for the people who live near the Slova river.
In Elon Musk's interview with Donald Trump in an off guarded moment that was meant to show what a powerful president he was, admitted that the reason Russia invaded had nothing to with Putin's alleged expansionist dreams. It was to pre-empt NATO expanding to Russia's borders through Ukrainian membership. This would have meant wiping out the ethnic Russian Ukrainian resistance within the population of Eastern Ukraine and Crimea.
Why don't countries simply limit any non NATO countries be limited to only an increase sales of dual use products to no more than 10% more sales than the previous year. Then there will be no 700% increase in sales. Companies know when sales jump and should be fined if they knowingly make sales like that.
Loving the Newkraine buffer zone !!
I fully agree that it is very cynical of westerners to demand Ukraininas to join the army whilst not giving them the means to achieve victory. At least the West should declare its goals clearly so that Ukraininans can make up their minds. and decide wether to make the possible final sacrifice. That is why I think that the West is not honest.
Yes Klitchko has many problems and many air shelters were locked leading to the consequences. Also going back his party including Poroshenko was involved in corruption.
What is the evidence of Poroshenko's being involved in corruption?
I almost listen to your program every day. Calling in from Quebec, Canada.
Replace or re- educate scholz, and if he unleashes the shackles, everyone else will be shamed into it
He's one of those romantic socialist types at heart, used to visit the DDR in his youth. No hope with him around.
Germany is full of Russian spies, look at the leaks we know of. I wonder if Ukraine's successes were helped by not telling it's "allies." Last wk France was exposed for war-profiteering, they've halved domestic use of Putin's gas but increased imports by 250% to re-export to Belgium & Spain
@@stephenhill545 Same goes for Biden, Harris and Sull-Ivan. All socialists, helping Ukraine against their will and to minimal effect.

I believe they're 90% fresh conscripts with only basic training.
I think the Russian people should define who the Putinists are and then who the Russian people are. Will the Russian people allow themselves to be defined by Putin?.
I Seriously Hope NOT
I recommend some books on Russian culture and mentality. This is a profound misunderstanding of how Russian minds work. They aren't defined by Putin, they're used to having a tzar who takes care of politics for them. They aren't defined by the tzar, they live their lives and the tzar is somewhere up there.
Only Putin's rivals in the political class can take him down
@@akeleven What Rivals ? how can that exist in Russia, with the 20,000 heavily armed Police during elections.
why tell people your stupid un nuanced thoughts?
If Svitlana Morenets report was meant to sow discord and division among Ukraine supporters. she delivered a good dose of it today.
Illuminating as always!
Shame on Western leaders for their short sightedness and spinelessness.
Why the restrictions? Doesn't Putin have enough of an advantage. In 2014 had the West kept it's word to Ukr there would be no war now. The USA tried to arrange support, but Europe/Merkel was more interested in Putin's gas.
More shame on Putin for the invasion... just to be clear. 🤷
However the US still has 40plus billion $ to spend in Ukraine
When
$40 billion to spend in the USA buying new kit for it's army & sending the old used kit to Ukraine.
Thanks
Svetlana appears to be supporting the Ukrainian opposition position, or even the russian propaganda on no elections being held in Ukraine and complaints from whinging politicians they can't have there foreign country holidays. How much are these guys being paid? How about staying and helping with the war effort? She said that Ukrainians didn’t support these politicians complaints. Politicians (some) no matter where they are continue to remind us of their self-serving goals.
Propoganda
The bridges where not all blown in one day, 2 where blown then one after giving this gave chance for evacuation.
How absolutely damming criticism of the Ukrainian so called parliment. Vote this way or risk persicution or even jail.
The WAR doesn't have an end IS NOT ZELENSKI'S FAULT, KLITCHKO, THE MAYOR OF KYIV IS BEING UNFAIR TO ZELENSKI THAT ZELENSKI HAD NO CONTROL OVER THE WAR'S LENGTH, OR ANYTHING SIMILAR !!!
KLITCHKO'S CHARGE IS JUST A NONSENSE, PERIOD !!!
Morenets is more eloquent in English than most native English speakers.

Is 'strategic ambiguity' a synonym for 'talking bollox'?
I think it is about keeping the opposition guessing about what your next step or reaction will be. But yes boolox.
Important is the change from trench war to movement war.
imagine if we gave as much help to the Czechs as we did to the Russians. ww2 wouldve gone totally different
In respose to questions about why there were somany broken marriages in Russia, in additional to the usual reason of drink, I was told that after ww2 there was a shoortage of men and so when a son was born the mothers treated them like little princes, they could do no wrong, and thus produced a whole generation of arrogant egotists. These are the ones in power now. All this is a result of autocracy, hubris, greed, and unrestrained self interest.
What are the real power of the conscript families in Russia? Putin seems to be very wary so far.. Almost as wary as we have been in greenlighting lrm use.
Russia 🇷🇺 offer of negotiations was an OFFER OF UKRAINE 🇺🇦 SURRENDER!
Doesn’t Starmer sound the bellend on the intro section…?
If the allies continue to support Ukraine they'll win, if not they won't. But Ukraine needs more troops.
Their support has had the opposite effect so far. They should have supported Western Ukraine's signing of the Istanbul peace deal rather encouraging them to reject it and lose even more manpower and land.
wow...still banging on with this...
@Sternenko posted videos of drones destroying the pontoon bridges.
Could someone tell me what happened to the idea of sending Swedish Gripen jets? My understanding is they are compatible with Ukrainian needs (can take off from short rough run ways and be well hidden), are relatively cheaper than other planes like F35s and are more modern than F-16s. Plus they have been exported and built outside Sweden for some years.
I'd be interested to know too.
Below is what I've read from googling news reports of the last month. A bit of a confused picture, which isn't surprising while discussions are ongoing:
The Economist: Ukraine has been pleased by French and Swedish offers of Mirage and Gripen fighter jets. But there are advantages of flying a single type of aircraft...
Kyiv Independent: Sweden open to sending Gripens to Ukraine after 'F-16 program completed,' decision up to Kyiv.
Yahoo News: Swedish defence minister: Sweden is pausing plans to send Gripen fighter jets to Ukraine in order to allow for the introduction of F-16 fighter jets.
MSM: Royal United Services Institute identified the Swedish aircraft as the most appropriate Western-manufactured combat jet to answer the operational needs of Ukraine
I think they are welcome but there is a training lag and compatibility issue with NATO systems.
Playing the long game, no rush.
More training of pilots & ground crew, more unique logistics, very few available. There are dozens of Gripens v thousands of F-16. The USA has 100s in several stashes in desert states. How many countries use & are training F-16 pilots & ground crew v just Sweden.
The thing with equipment is that it will become attritted over time ANYWAY. Their decision to take Russian territory now had to made now because next year they might not have the means left.
Zelensky...what a loser.
The incursion in the Kursk outback is equivalent in football to a footballer of a losing side passing the ball between an opponent's legs. Funny but irrelevant if your side is losing 6-1
Get rekt, Putler!
Kyiv could test fire a storm shadow at a location that is in their zone of control closely within the international border of Russia.
They could publicize or allow it to be publicized, and then watch for the prime Minister or mod's reaction??
Need some maps
Maybe some pics/video?
The economies of Finland, the Baltics and Poland are together bigger than Russia's (I read somewhere), but they're not going for broke like Russia is.
This woman seems very biased against Zelensky. Is she an opposition figure? very odd.

Ukrainian Armed Forces commander-in-chief Alexander Syrsky reported to Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky that the station along the entire frontline remains difficult.
"As of August 20, the operational and strategic situation remains difficult, […] the situation is tense on Orekhov and Dnieper directions," he said, speaking via video conference at the Congress of local and regional authorities under the president of Ukraine. His report was aired by the Rada TV channel.
Syrsky acknowledged that the Russian forces have been maintaining a 3:1 advantage over the Ukrainian army in use of artillery shells in the past two months.
Previously, the Ukrainian commander-in-chief informed Zelensky about difficult combat near Krasnoarmeysk (Pokrovsk) and Dzerzhinsk (Toretsk) in Kiev-controlled parts of DPR. DPR forces told TASS that Ukrainian defenses in Novogrodovka near Krasnoarmeysk is "crumbling."
On the night of August 20, the Russian Aerospace Forces launched a precision strike on the control center and a military warehouse of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the border Sumy region.
The Russian Ministry of Defense confirmed the successful attack and supported the claims with the footage filmed by Russian reconnaissance UAV in Ukrainian rear.
As a result of the precision attack, the command staff of the 47th brigade of the AFU suffered heavy losses. The command post of the ‘elite’ Ukrainian Magura brigade was destroyed in the town of Gluhov. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, the strike was launched at night from a Su-34 fighter jet with aviation bombs with universal planning and correction modules.
This notorious AFU unit was equipped by the NATO military and consists of servicemen trained in NATO countries. They were thrown into the battles in the Zaporozhie region, then to the Avdeevka front. Today, the elite unit is involved in the ongoing operations in the Russian Kursk region. However, no NATO military equipment nor training help them to achieve any victories and hide from the devastating strikes of Russian missiles.
