“Russia’s borders do not end anywhere” ran Vladimir Putin’s electoral slogan in January 2024, in seeming justification of a war of conquest in Ukraine meant to be over shortly after it began. But in a surprise turn two and a half years after the full-scale invasion, Ukraine decided to make good on Putin’s loose definition of sovereignty by invading the Kursk region in southern Russia on Aug. 6, in what has become the largest seizure of Russian land since World War II. Ukraine’s top commander, Oleksandr Syrskyi, says his forces have captured about 400 square miles of the region, which is opposite the northeastern Ukrainian region of Sumy.
But let's look at it this way, what if the West was not supplying unlimited support to Ukraine, and Ukraine was to make their own weapons, what would happen?
@@PriceAction-j3l How is what they've given them unlimited support? They've given them a single digit fraction of their military budget with strings attached and after delaying it for months on end.

We had 150,000 troops in Iraq, while the CIA reported that there were never more than approximately 15,000 guerrillas in country- and they had no air power, no armor support, no strategic level intelligence services coordinating their operations, no satellite or aerial reconnaissance, and no allied combatants worthy of the name. Yet they stymied us for over a decade. You need to give your brain a chance and think things through.
@@mourbonaventure7475 You underestimate the situation that the Russians are in. Look at the difficulty that we faced in Iraq, and we were only facing Guerrillas. The Russians are tangling with an army that has been trained, equipped, and supplied by the west since 2014. The only thing that the Ukrainians lacked was real air power- and that was because a real air force would have been clear evidence of western support, and therefore of aggressive intent. And for the record, I don't like Putin's police state style of government a whit. That said, you're not the first to underestimate the Russians. They're in this for the long haul and they're going to bleed Ukraine white- at great cost no doubt, but they're going to do it. This assumes that the west doesn't support a REAL Ukrainian offensive toward Moscow. Doing that will constitute a threat to the existence of the Russian state.
A subsequent video from the same military unit shows another standing in a deserted street in another part of Sudzha. A dead Russian soldier lies on the ground. No gunfire or artillery can be heard in the distance, indicating the town is uncontestedly in Ukrainian hands. In notable contrast to settlements seized by Russian forces in Ukraine, the buildings of Sudzha seem almost completely undamaged. Much of this likely owes to the little resistance Ukrainians faced in their blitzkrieg. A Ukrainian source close to the military with firsthand knowledge of the operation told New Lines that the invading troops were shocked by how many prisoners of war they were able to capture on the Russian side and at the initial ease of their breakthrough across the border.
Everything except two of your points is correct. The body lying in the road is a civilian outside a handful of conscripts the rest of detainees are civilians.

Not only is Russia too FAT to protect, the government is also too busy defending itself internally against its own people. Incredibly imbalanced situation.
To be honest, a huge number of the RU airplane shot down by air defense systems, were shut down by RU air defense systems! So let's give the Russians credit where credit is due! 😂😂😂
strange how tanks are now vulnerable to a kids drone with a bomb strapped to it and planes don’t get off the runway and it’s back to trench warfare of 106 years ago.. technology has created WW1 😮
The Brits were the brains behind this. They've had Special Forces and military advisors operating inside Ukraine since before the war began. Alongside Poland and the Baltic States, the Brits have been the biggest advocates of providing Ukraine the weapons it needs to win. From running Operation Orbital to being first to supply Western MBT's and Cruise missiles, they have solidified support for Ukraine. Sure the US has been the largest single arms supplier, and the EU the largest supplier of non-military funding, but without the Brits many others would have held back. Give them some credit for both sides of their political divide fully supporting Ukraine.
The issue is the Russians never invested in logistics the same way the US armed forces has. The USAF and US Navy are the only two forces in the world were you can send a package in one place in the world and deliver it to any other place in the world within 72hrs. The Russians still heavily rely on railroad transportation to move supplies, equipment, and soldiers across Russia. The Ukrainians can easily disable the Russian rail network with a couple drone strike making it difficult for the Russians to move reinforcements to Kursk.
Ukraine's incursion into Kursk had a secondary goal of disrupting logistics. Ukraine allegedly seized a railroad station and is attempting to hack computer for movement data.

Lol keep up that energy. Screw Putin, I hope he does lose BUT this war is not going well for Ukraine. This attack into Kursk is a last ditch effort to influence US voters. Google how the Eastern front is going. I do hope Trump wins and attempts to negotiate an end tho. Probably unlikely now but worth a shot and I absolutely don't want to see us go down the path Biden and Harris have us on.
💪🇷🇺 Russia has warned Poland against attempting to intercept Russian missiles Russia warns Poland against intercepting Russian missiles Russia is ready to respond to an attempt to intercept Russian missiles with air defense systems stationed in Poland. Earlier, the Polish authorities announced the possibility of assisting Ukraine in intercepting Russian missiles and drones. Poland and Ukraine Ukraine and Poland have concluded an agreement on the provision of security guarantees, but a specific mechanism for assistance is not specified in the agreement. Earlier, the Russian authorities warned about considering a country trying to intercept Russian missiles as a direct participant in the conflict. Poland continues to consider the possibility of intercepting Russian missiles, but it is not known why they need it. The new Polish government has signed a security agreement with Ukraine, but no concrete action has been taken.
If you are living in Ireland, why did you post this: "Much love to Russia from Slovak Republik!"? Looks suspicious doesn't it? I think you're not Ukrainian at all.
"It's an embarrassment for Russia, they're not defending their borders". Now do the United States and their borders and how well they are "defending" it.
Every evening, Olaf Scholz kneels in front of a portrait of Hitler and prays by candlelight for revenge and the offensive of German, British and American tanks on Kursk.

Russian airforce "virtually unscathed"? Does this reporter works for the russians? Ukraine took out over 342 fighter planes and 325 military helicopters since the war began 2.5 years ago. That's one every day or every other day!
@@mrjerzheel As of right now the Oryx database lists 105 fighter jets and 14 helicopters as destroyed or damaged as visually confirmed. But please keep in mind that this is likely only the floor for the numbers. Jets and helicopters are probably in the category where losses might occur without much visual evidence somewhere behind the frontlines. Additionally we have not yet seen the impact of the drone strikes this week. The official Ukrainian numbers are probably the upper limit with the real number likely being somewhere in between. I would also like to stress, that when talking about aircraft some of the damage and strain might not only be in combat but also in maintenance and keeping up a high tempo of operation resulting in airframes wearing out or needing serious repair to keep them flying.
@@mrjerzheel another point I would like to make is, that another reason for the russian airforce being "virtually unscathed" is, that Ukraine has not been given either the capability or permission to attack airbases within Russia with anything but their own indigenous drones (and Neptuns). I was hoping maybe Gen. Hertling would call that out .
People here are very unfair in the comments. Yes it is true, it turned out that the borders of Russia are almost not guarded at all, the defense is weak. But let's be honest - if you were born in Russia, lived there your entire adult life, you don't expect that anyone will want to get there, even Ukrainians
Had we, humanity, collectively mistrusted Putin earlier, had we acted upon our lack of trust straightaway, and had we supported President Zelensky from the outset upon Russia declaring this war, this level of destruction could have been avoided. Given Ukraine continies to fight for its integrity, its life and its future, perhaps a worrthy reflection across parties, ponds, and ethnicities. Help them now🙏
I think its odd no one mentions that the Russians didn't want to fill their own territory with land mines. Its amazing how much of a difference such an old technology can make
Why would Russia declare states of emergency and evacuate thousands over a blue dot? Are they cowards. Stop worrying about nothing. Everything is under control.

I think the Ukrainians are familiar with Russian minds. How else could they have kept this so quiet?
@@ruthweber9623 I seriously doubt they're going to over extend their supply lines in mad dash for Moscow. Putin isn't defending the border because he can no longer afford to. His cash is tied up already.

Notice trump is saying nothing about this. And the media is gining him a pass by not asking him about it.😔
Really, you're going to go with the "media" giving Trump a pass? Objective, you are not. I suspect you weren't terribly concerned when the "media" was gaslighting for 3 + years vis-a-vis Biden's neurocognitive disorder.
I saw a video of him talking about it,said the usual stuff, He hopes Ukraines get what they need, this is a Joe Bidens fault , He’s the the best and how he’ll end this war in a day blah blah blah
He would attempt to claim credit. Trump previously sought to take credit for Obama era accomplishments.
Funny how strong Russian bots are behind their keyboards and how weak they are on the battlefield.
We had 150,000 troops in Iraq, while the CIA reported that there were never more than approximately 15,000 guerrillas in country- and they had no air power, no armor support, no strategic level intelligence services coordinating their operations, no satellite or aerial reconnaissance, and no allied combatants worthy of the name. Yet they stymied us for over a decade. You need to give your brain a chance and think things through.
@@manilajohn0182haha what is your comment referencing?
@@mourbonaventure7475 You underestimate the situation that the Russians are in. Look at the difficulty that we faced in Iraq, and we were only facing Guerrillas. The Russians are tangling with an army that has been trained, equipped, and supplied by the west since 2014. The only thing that the Ukrainians lacked was real air power- and that was because a real air force would have been clear evidence of western support, and therefore of aggressive intent. And for the record, I don't like Putin's police state style of government a whit. That said, you're not the first to underestimate the Russians. They're in this for the long haul and they're going to bleed Ukraine white- at great cost no doubt, but they're going to do it. This assumes that the west doesn't support a REAL Ukrainian offensive toward Moscow. Doing that will constitute a threat to the existence of the Russian state.

Russian Bots Sounds Like Youve Been Listening To Hillary Again. She's Fake as a Rubber Snake Man
A subsequent video from the same military unit shows another standing in a deserted street in another part of Sudzha. A dead Russian soldier lies on the ground. No gunfire or artillery can be heard in the distance, indicating the town is uncontestedly in Ukrainian hands. In notable contrast to settlements seized by Russian forces in Ukraine, the buildings of Sudzha seem almost completely undamaged. Much of this likely owes to the little resistance Ukrainians faced in their blitzkrieg.
A Ukrainian source close to the military with firsthand knowledge of the operation told New Lines that the invading troops were shocked by how many prisoners of war they were able to capture on the Russian side and at the initial ease of their breakthrough across the border.
Putin and his paranoia will not trust Russian pow’s when they come home..

That one Russian soldier might have had a chance of seeing his family again, if he had just surrendered.
Did they take civilians as pow's?
Everything except two of your points is correct. The body lying in the road is a civilian outside a handful of conscripts the rest of detainees are civilians.

Belarus president saying Russia and Ukraine should end the war?? He’s changed his tune!! When the going gets tough he goes running!!
The Brits were the brains behind this. They've had Special Forces and military advisors operating inside Ukraine since before the war began. Alongside Poland and the Baltic States, the Brits have been the biggest advocates of providing Ukraine the weapons it needs to win. From running Operation Orbital to being first to supply Western MBT's and Cruise missiles, they have solidified support for Ukraine. Sure the US has been the largest single arms supplier, and the EU the largest supplier of non-military funding, but without the Brits many others would have held back. Give them some credit for both sides of their political divide fully supporting Ukraine.
The issue is the Russians never invested in logistics the same way the US armed forces has. The USAF and US Navy are the only two forces in the world were you can send a package in one place in the world and deliver it to any other place in the world within 72hrs. The Russians still heavily rely on railroad transportation to move supplies, equipment, and soldiers across Russia. The Ukrainians can easily disable the Russian rail network with a couple drone strike making it difficult for the Russians to move reinforcements to Kursk.
Ukraine's incursion into Kursk had a secondary goal of disrupting logistics. Ukraine allegedly seized a railroad station and is attempting to hack computer for movement data.
This is a Washington crossing the Delaware moment for Ukraine.
You know what? That is not a bad analogy.
Let’s not take it that far. They are still severely outnumbered. And Russia does have nukes.

Russia has not won a war by themselves since 1812, when they had to burn Moscow down to deny Napoleon's forces any chance at re-supplying.
Not entirely true (4 example Finland 1939/40-44; Germany 1941-1945); but they HAVE lost a lot of conflicts since 1812.

Russia warns Poland against intercepting Russian missiles
Russia is ready to respond to an attempt to intercept Russian missiles with air defense systems stationed in Poland.
Earlier, the Polish authorities announced the possibility of assisting Ukraine in intercepting Russian missiles and drones.
Poland and Ukraine
Ukraine and Poland have concluded an agreement on the provision of security guarantees, but a specific mechanism for assistance is not specified in the agreement.
Earlier, the Russian authorities warned about considering a country trying to intercept Russian missiles as a direct participant in the conflict.
Poland continues to consider the possibility of intercepting Russian missiles, but it is not known why they need it.
The new Polish government has signed a security agreement with Ukraine, but no concrete action has been taken.
As a Ukrainian living in Ireland for 8 years I am so lucky to have escaped this bloodbath. Never looking back!
If you are living in Ireland, why did you post this: "Much love to Russia from Slovak Republik!"? Looks suspicious doesn't it? I think you're not Ukrainian at all.
"It's an embarrassment for Russia, they're not defending their borders". Now do the United States and their borders and how well they are "defending" it.

That’s how you get them to behave. There is no other way. It’s a school yard lesson. Nothing more.
Excellent interview. Very informative, super honorable person being interviewed CNN should bring him on staff permanent. Thanks again very content.
russia is entirely defenceless.
I was thinking this incursion would force the Russians to divert assets from other areas.
I was thinking the same thing but he didn't react in that way. It depends on what Putin decides to do. I hope he pulls enough from the main Russian push on the front lines to help the Ukraine take back most of what they lost,and give them time to build stronger defenses.

Russian airforce "virtually unscathed"? Does this reporter works for the russians? Ukraine took out over 342 fighter planes and 325 military helicopters since the war began 2.5 years ago. That's one every day or every other day!
Only if you believe Ukraine claims of numbers
@@mrjerzheel As of right now the Oryx database lists 105 fighter jets and 14 helicopters as destroyed or damaged as visually confirmed. But please keep in mind that this is likely only the floor for the numbers. Jets and helicopters are probably in the category where losses might occur without much visual evidence somewhere behind the frontlines. Additionally we have not yet seen the impact of the drone strikes this week. The official Ukrainian numbers are probably the upper limit with the real number likely being somewhere in between. I would also like to stress, that when talking about aircraft some of the damage and strain might not only be in combat but also in maintenance and keeping up a high tempo of operation resulting in airframes wearing out or needing serious repair to keep them flying.
@@mrjerzheel another point I would like to make is, that another reason for the russian airforce being "virtually unscathed" is, that Ukraine has not been given either the capability or permission to attack airbases within Russia with anything but their own indigenous drones (and Neptuns). I was hoping maybe Gen. Hertling would call that out .
Thank you CNN ❤
Propaganda is literally flying 😂
People here are very unfair in the comments. Yes it is true, it turned out that the borders of Russia are almost not guarded at all, the defense is weak. But let's be honest - if you were born in Russia, lived there your entire adult life, you don't expect that anyone will want to get there, even Ukrainians
I do not understand why are you both smiling? People are dying
Russia had nominal protection at the check points. It's almost like they expected people to respect internationally recognized borders.
Trust Me, no one is more trustworthy like a retired general/lieutenant on CNN or BBC

Trust a random idiot? Nah rather listen to the ex military guy
Get your measly roubles while you can comrade.
Had we, humanity, collectively mistrusted Putin earlier, had we acted upon our lack of trust straightaway, and had we supported President Zelensky from the outset upon Russia declaring this war, this level of destruction could have been avoided.
Given Ukraine continies to fight for its integrity, its life and its future, perhaps a worrthy reflection across parties, ponds, and ethnicities. Help them now🙏
