  1. Yeah, sure Crimea. In reality the front is about to collapse. Ukraine already lost most trained and motivated soldiers along with almost all hardware it had before the war plus hundreds of tanks and IFVs it got from Eastern Europe. Zelenskyy strategy is reduced to rounding up civilians often at gunpoint and throwing them into a meat grinder in a futile attempt to stabilize the front. It's now abundantly clear that Zelenskyy lied about a real Ukrainian mobilization potential. Even these drastic measures clearly cannot save him. Ukraine got dozens of polish MiG 29s as "spare parts", dozens of SU 25s from other countries in Eastern Europe, dozens of choppers. Almost everything was lost. It's just a waste of money. The war is lost by Ukraine. This tank delivery announcement is just a transparent attempt to deflect accusations in an inevitable future blame game.

  2. Russians rejected any freeze of the conflict before the election. They demand unconditional surrender of Ukraine. Meanwhile Zelenskyy was in Washington cup in hand so he had to say something. His recent story that he will take Bakhmut and two unnamed cities by the end of the year.😂 Even NYT noticed in desperation: "Some American officials say the fight in Bakhmut has become something of an obsession for Mr. Zelensky and his military leaders." Bakhmut was a slaughter which was entirely Zelenskyy folly as Stalingrad was entirely Hitler's folly. Zelenskyy just for media hype wasted on average 500 troops daily (total tally was at least 51 000 KIA) in Bakhmut meat grinder even when all escape routes came under Russian fire control and this debacle turned into a sheer slaughter of Ukrainian troops. But obsessed with Bakhmut Zelenskyy didn't stop even at that. Since May 20 when Russians took Bakhmut General Syrsky (Zelenskyy minion) launched wave after wave of suicidal counterattacks failing to retake a single village near Bakhmut (parts of villages Andriivka and Kleshiivka are still controlled by Russians and it's driving Zelenskyy nuts) while wasting thousands upon thousands of hapless Ukrainian conscripts. This ongoing obsessive lunacy that makes zero military sense is simply astounding. With this lunatic behavior Zelenskyy regime will likely crumble by the end of the year.

  3. Meanwhile in the real world Ukraine is losing the war. There are mass surrender and desertion. The most important thing is that Ukrainian professional army including elite Nazi units like Azov regiment suffered unsustainable losses and you can't do much with conscripts (most of them are really unwilling to fight for the regime). Just yesterday 32 Ukrainian soldiers were shot dead by Ukrainian Nazi unit while crossing the frontline trying to surrender. According to Guardian “…more than 20,000 casualties a month raises questions about what state Ukraine’s army will be in if the conflict drags on into the autumn. Ukraine is losing 2 to 3 brigade's a month at this rate. That's unsustainable.” Western supplies are a drop in the bucket taking into account the amount of already lost hardware. Without direct intervention of Polish or Romanian armies Ukrainian army will be done by the end of the year. 40+ billion in American weapons without even minimal oversight is mostly about corruption and kickbacks as usual. I suppose Ukraine is the second largest buyer of Hunter's art after China.
