But haven't you said all this before? That Russia is running out of missiles and fighting with shovels and all that stuff?
If they were doing well they wouldn't be begging North Korea for ammo or importing mercenaries from Africa and Asia.
Think it was people like you who said Russians were fighting with shovels
@@petefrys545 I didn't say that. Sky military analyst "Shawn" kept saying it

You better stop lies and deal with facts
Itâs so good to hear reassurance from the same experts who have been saying all along that Russia has run out of weapons, missiles, ammunition and men. I sure they will come up with even more interesting stories very soon.
Nobody ever said that but the Russian propagandists did say it about Ukraine.

true, russia has basically no hope to take kharkiv. If it took them that many resources to take bakhmut and avdiivka when its population is ~60,000/30,000 then they will never accomplish anything in a city of 1.5 million.

How much land has Russia captured in the past two years?
â@@Dave-bf2lc In the past two years, Russia has captured 10% of Ukraine, amounting to 60,362 kmÂČ, an area comparable to the size of Latvia. This is in addition to the approximately 8% (48,290 kmÂČ) of Ukraine already occupied, which is comparable to the size of Slovakia and includes Crimea and parts of donetsk oblast.
Russia main goal in this conflict is not about capturing the totality of Ukraine since they're already the largest nation on earth with abundant resources.
â@@alqaas1948How dare you tell facts to a brainwashed individual đđ
@@BruceJ999 đit will be funny to see how he changes the subject and somehow tries to argue that Russia "wants to get all of Ukraine and move onto Europe then." The same bs argument made by Biden, Sunak, Macron and other Nato warmongers.
Except that the West's supply of material is infinite, endless, and eternal. Russia's is not.
Considering the last update to the Map of where this new Russia Offensive is taking place at, were areas that if the Ukrainian Army had established defense line, would of been under attack by Russia Artillery daily. So really the Ukrainians lack of Defenses in the area, was due to save the lives of their own Military Personnel.
Yea that'll be why Zelensky Sacked the commander in charge of building said deffenses. Nice thought but pure fantasy fella
The amount of delusion and cope never ceases to amaze.
Sure buddy, Ukraine is not in retreat they are just advancing in a different direction đ
@@SteveJones-gz4vd He is right. The only reasons why there are no hardened defences in the border area is because they are subject to frequent artillery and drone attack. It makes so much more sense to defend deeper. A simple check of google maps and you can actually see defence lines further to the south.

the shovels don't have enough mass i guess.
That's the problem with Western analysts. They are worried about occupation not leveling down of the city which Russia is good at. Those FAB bombs are doing damage.
The conventional logic behind occupation is to take the land but allow the people there to keep working, living, raising kids & paying taxes, taxes which will go to the occupying powers.
If the people flee, though, Russia is consolidating nothing. For now there's no farming & there's almost zero business going on. There's almost zero benefits to invasion when what you're invading is devoid of people.
In other words, war crimes are a matter of declared Russian policy. Thanks, we already know that.

TimesRadio - Doom and gloom mongers. They might get it almost right once over a 100 year period.
The correct statement would: Putin has not allocated enough men to take over Kharkiv.
The clever play with words is just a form of dangerous cheerleading.
The Ukrainian army is suffering systemic collapse over much of the contact line. In some places the collapse is happening so fast that the Russian army is struggling to keep up with their own success.

All the experts have difficulty coping with Russia winning. Russia is not currently doing big arrow offensives, it does well enough
With small scale offensives at different locations forcing Ukraine backwards everywhere. Shoigu has been promoted. He is still in charge of defence production and will directly advise Putin. The replacement is an economic expert who will get the industry streamlined. This is just sensible appointments, not people being removed. As I look at Ukraine it is starting to collapse. Worry about them rather!
Yes, this three day invasion is going rather well for Russia. Taking a few metres of land a day should see Ukraine under full control by the year 2589. And then there will be no resistance from the Ukrainians thereafter.
The stories are always the same...Russian can't do this or can't do that....their losing.
They just took another 200 square km....with an army of people who signed up....not rounded up off the streets as in ukrain.

lol thank you for the laugh russian bot clown. russia is PATHETIC and WEAK compared to what everyone actually thought before their latest Ukrainian invasion.
How so? It is a failed state.
it is. Ukraine is just weaker.
Russia is sending untrained conscripts in human wave assaults. Even a victory is a catastrophe for Russia. The long term loss of men means many fewer Russian babies born in a system that was already in terminal collapse. There will not be an independent Russia in 20 years.
I think most over estimated Russia as a military power not the other way around. They are invading a country with a much smaller army that has much less equipment and yet, here we are 2.3 years later. Russian losses vs a smaller, weaker, ill-equipped Ukrainian seem significant.
This is more absolute nonsense đ

Ok comrade
Ukraine has nothing to loose and thats what makes them so dangerous, russia pushed them against the wall and Putin regrets his decision but is too stubborn to admit it and leave, he needs to save face. What a clown
You the clown too much western medias isn't itđđ
The west has always had an enslaving mindset. They have always though of conquering & subverting nations & territories for their resources. That's why vocabularies like DOMINATE, SANCTION, DETHRONE will always feature in their discussions. So they think about Russia from the same perspective. The west never does anything in good faith & in the interest of their citizens, that's why they can trust that any leader outside their sphere can do things without ulterior motives.
Ukraine is being depopulated by Zelenky. They have a problem with mobilization & have resorted to forced mobilization. Every dime spent by the US & EU goes into a sink hole.
Russia lost 20million citizens in WW2. If it can minimize casualties the better. Russia is already too big to govern, Putin is not interested on extra territory. Donbass voted to be independent.

NATO has everything to lose. If the Russia do take Ukraine, then it would give them access to attack Central Europe countries with little being in place to stop them. Current State of Military Forces in NATO is just sad compared to before 1989, even when NATO expansion is accounted for. NATO in general has felt comfort in not having large area of it border not existing on Borders of Russia, with exception being Kalingrad enclave.

The railroad that the Russians are building has managed to reach Melitopol which people are saying represents about 50% completion.
Crimea is on the back burner right now, and I get the sense that so long as Gerasimov is in theatre command, which he is still is, Crimea will remain a non-immediate priority though it's still strategic to both sides.
The guest is correct that Russia pushes. Its strategy over the past Year & a half is to push the line forward across the entire front & exploit the breakouts like it has at Ocherotyne, & the guest is also correct here that Russia's abilities to exploit those breakouts also seems to be limited.
They are expanding their TOE literally as we're watching this video, but the replacements are found wanting. Be warned, however, that they are stockpiling heavy mechanized armor somewhere in Russia, & it's supposed to be at least 200-300 tanks, most of them refurbs, yes, but still a dangerous supplement if you're training tank crews for them.
Still, the Russians' chances are at or near zero for anything that looks like a definitive victory, & their TOE are running up against hard limits. They increased their gasoline imports from Belarus this Year over 2023, & 2023 totalled a greater import total over 2022. That's the refinery attacks at work.
Armies all rely on the five essentials: bullets, food, fuel, medicine & water. Cut your enemy's access to any of those 5 essentials & they will be defeated after some time.
Chinese coke production spiked in very late 2023, & that's probably because of Russian demand. Russia's overall capacity to manufacture petroleum coke fell with their refining capacity, again likely a result of the refinery attacks, & they absolutely need coke to make steel. No coke means no steel. No steel means no weapons.
The Russian economy is shrinking overall. They need consumer spending for tax revenues to feed the War machine, but their consumer spending isn't increasing to meet the increase in the Russian cash outlay to import all their war materials the list for which is growing, not shrinking.
Putin invaded Years too early. I don't know why he picked 2022 but it turned out to be the wrong time. They needed Years to prepare for this War, to harden their defenses around the refineries for instance, to train a civilian air patrol to spot & report drones, time to build their domestic cash reserves as it turns out that their foreign reserves would get frozen.
They should've waited.

Within 3 days Russians took 260 km2 and 12 villages. They are advancing on the frontline 60 km wide. What is this clown talking about?
These individuals believe the Russians will make foolish decisions despite the lessons they've learned from this war. They lack critical thinking skills. They don't understand that the 50,000 soldiers are intended to create a buffer (not occupy the entirety of Kharkiv oblast) and divert forces from the Donbas, which would cause the eastern defensive lines to fall more quickly.
If it is true that the "advance" has been stopped, what are you talking about?
How long did it take them to advance through Avdiivka. How many km's beyond that are they now after 6 months? and that burnt through about 50,000 Russians. They are trying only to pin and thin Ukrainian forces and capitalize on the advantage they have in resources before the US and NATO aid hits the frontlines in strength. That is all.
â@@artyarts-sake4420 First of all, Avdiivka was fully captured on February 17, 2024, which was about three months ago. Advances from Avdiivka have reached around 15 km, due to Ukraine's continuous construction of defensive lines since 2014. Beyond these lines, defenses are sparse and mainly around key towns. Secondly, the main goal of the Kharkiv operation is to deplete Ukrainian manpower and resources, easing future battles in the east. However, you haven't mentioned the manpower shortage Ukraine is currently experiencing. Even with billions in aid, without sufficient manpower, these resources are rendered ineffective.
â@@alqaas1948ATACMS taking out anything and everything at will, leaving supply lines fractured. Recipe for starving troops.
Why Russians attacked now and why Charkov ?
Putin finally understood that the West will not let him defeat Ukraine - and he found out that Shoigu told him a lot of "stories". So he developed a new plan:
He still wants whole Donbass - and now he tries a typical KGB method: he is trying blackmailing. His plan: take a part of Charkov region, and after that go in peace negotiations with the proposal to change this territory against the rest of Donbass etc.

Sounds like Europe is several years behind so it's time to put the weapons & armed forces in overdrive.
