Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments PART 2

[Viet]

My friend money is but a paper, as long as they can access Chinese goods and components, and supply us with oil. The war can go on until there are no Russians left but once the US cut funds to Ukraine, it is kaput. Russia is not surviving on dollar reserves, they are surviving on RMB reserves now. As long as we buy their oil, gas and resources, they will survive.

What is Russia endgame? Of course Russia will survive. The question at what level of existence.
In case you don’t know, there is a list circulating between western banks called MSC “major sanctioned countries”. That is Russia, Iran, Cuba, North Korea and Syria. Russia is called the “most major sanctioned country” because Russia is more sanctioned than all other combined.

Russia has already strategically lost. They are unable to conduct any strategic or operational level offensive. As witnessed in Avdiivka this week, their offensive was annihilated.

Now the question is how long they will continue to get dragged on the battlefield.

Russia has the ability to sustain this war for years to come. They have the raw materials, numbers and industrial power to take Ukraine inch by inch no matter the cost. Once they take control of Odessa, it'll be a strategic win for them against NATO. Let's see what happens when this winter comes and the ground freezes over. Sure will be interesting to see who gains more land.

Of course Ukraine will win.
You can see how thousands of well prepared warriors are coming to the frontline. The panzer ghost divisions are waiting hidden in the forest of Kherson waiting the stinky russians to pass... it is written in the Bible. You must check the proper page.


That is worrysome for UE love and peace defenders (except Palestine).
That means Putin is gathering munitions for warming winter.

The same can be said to Russ ghost tanks, where are they? Putin needs another thousands of tanks to march on Kiew.

Russia can End Ukraine front in matter of 10 minutes
They have been generous by doing ground incursion

In 1 single attack Western front can be crippled and eastern front devoid of intelligence or supplies

To me it is strange why Russia even wants to send in ground troops

 

[Vergennes]

The amount of losses suffered by Russia in its offensive in Avdiivka is mind boggling

Also other countries will support Russia more after the recent incidents in Gaza. Usa knows how to threaten with diplomatic words. I am sure behind the scenes they say to countries like Iran to not give anything to Russia and in return for example they will control israel to not to continue with land operation or similar. In that case Iran will be immobilised and cant give any smallest help with a single threat in that case israeli land operation threat. However there are levels that can be used as leverage instead of total paralysis by Usa threats. For example Russia already has Shahed 131 and Mohajir 6. If they make the production line of Mohajier 6 it is easily deniable as Russia has tech to copy these by itself and make the production line with the experience they gained from Geran. This support seems necessary and can be given to Russia right away as they highly need it now and their soldiers will have huge casualties by Ukraine artillery counterattack in Avdiivka. So it is necessary item to keep and improve relations with Russia with added deniabilty option for Iran irrespective of Usa threats which can be neutralized by second and third level Russian military operation support options as leverage. Mutual relations with Russia will be more important soon as trump will make a possible return and will try to make Russia distance from Iran maybe in return of some Ukraine concessions.

Second level would be if Usa decides to give way for israeli Gaza land op, more advanced drones like Shahed 141-149 + long range sdbs can be given to Russia in return. These are not too necessary but if given can have an impact on the outcome in Donbass operations and can be used as leverage to stop Gaza land operation. They can still be claimed for sales not to be used in Ukraine but they can still be used flying inside Ru controlled areas. Nothing can be proven unless drones fall into Ukr controlled territories.

Third level of counter leverage can be giving of srbm and cruise missiles if israel expands attacks with Labennon and Syria. This is not too necessary item for Russia as they have substitutes but will have a huge impact and will quicken the military operation for Russia. It can be used as leverage to stop israeli attacks spreading to other areas.

Do you realize Bangladesh has a larger population than Russia? Who is going to live in all that landmass when many of the young males ran away or are dead? The population will collapse. Who is going to man the industries when young Russians run away to Europe or even the US?

Russia was sending its engineers working at weapons facilities to combat. A submariner died patrolling Azerbaijan! Russia, what used to be one of the biggest arms exporters, is now begging Iran and North Korea for weapons!

The Russia you see now is a shell of its former self. It survives on the hype of its nuclear weapons arsenal, dreaded reputation as the USSR which really conquered pushovers, and historical wins over Nazis or Napolean that invaded their land. They are hyped up as an undefeated nation just like the Afghans, when in reality Mongols and others smashed them both. But that hype is just false image to scare others just like animal puffs up its size when cornered.

Delusional, Russia will never take Odessa.

Russia is strictly living off its Soviet stocks. They can probably do that to 2025. At that point the situation becomes critical. You can’t live off Soviet equipment forever.

Currently only NK seems to be implicitly supporting with artillery shells and similar and with its nuclear deterrance it has definite risks to intervene against NK support militarily. Others can also transfer some necessary requirements implicitly or explicitly depending on their preference. Nothing happened after the Geran-2 production of Russia although there were some veiled threats as well. Russia has the technology and copied the Shahed-131s producing their own variants. They can do the same with other drones like Mohajir-6 that they already possess. They can also buy other more advanced drones from abroad like China or Iran with the condition of not direct usage in the military operation zone and Russia has technical know-how(similar variants like Orion) to produce their own variants later on copying them who knows. Time will tell.
