  1. Grand counter offensive has been reduced to probing attacks ? How much war materials have ended in Ukraine black markets ?
    4
  2. Yeah. Zelensky, what happened to the war drama ? The audience is getting bored.
    3
  3. A spin of "have we reach there yet ?" to "has it happens yet ?"
    3
  4. Significant progress ? The Ukrainians have not even reached the 1st line of Russian defense yet.
    3
  5. You're mistaken. After 11 military mobilizations, Ukraine is drafting minors and elders to fight. Ukraine lacks manpower.
    3
  6. Same with Russia. It has yet fully deploy its 500,000 conscripts to the war.
    2
  7. Should have done analysing war tactics and enemy intel before the start of the grand counter offensive. Its just an excuse for failure.
    2
  8. Have you seen the name of the news "broadcaster" ? Its called TLDR News EU and you expected it to be neutral ?
    2
  9. Most likely, like Ukraine except NATO is tired of Ukraine so Kosovo might not received much help from NATO.
    2
  10. Can't blame Zelensky. NATO/EU demanded results for their "contributions".
    2
  11. Really ? It's the 1st time I've heard about it. All the time, the internet and paper media would only say Russia wants the 4 regions and Crimea to end the war.
    2
  12. Ukraine cannot do whatever, time is not on their side as it is entirely dependent on NATO/EU supports to fight Russia. Ukraine could not conserve resources and manpower, because it needs to show NATO/EU that it could drive Russia out of Ukraine. Russia has an easier time replenishing their losses.
    2
  13.  @Inkan1969  Not so. Ukraine had already gone through 11 military mobilization conscripting minors and seniors for war. This showed that Ukraine is having manpower problems.
    2
  14. Not paused ? You meant that the most advertised and talked about grand counter offensive in the history of modern warfare, for the last 6 months had ended ?
    2
  15. Because of "tactical retreat" to finish the sentence ?
    2
  16.  @davidty2006  Even with all these issues, Ukraine still got hammered by Russia.
    2
  17.  @chavezchavo  You already acknowledged "this offensive is NOT on Ukrainian side", "this offensive is going nowhere". Thus, in your posting, you implied that Ukrainians could not take back the 4 regions and Crimea, even with NATO/EU supports. Thetefore, Ukraine should cut its losses and have peaceful co-existence with Russia.
    2
  18.  @chavezchavo  Then fight ! No peace ! Just like the ill-equipped Talibans who fought the Americans for the last 20 years, Ukraine could also sacrifice one generation of its people for a chance to take back the lost lands, provide that NATO/EU are willing to sponsor its war for the next 20 years.
    2
  19. Special military operation ?
    2
  20. You wanted Ukraine to invade Russia proper without further NATO/EU supports ? So you wanted Ukraine to commit suicide.
    2
  21. Stop shouting empty slogan. Its clear to the world that NATO/EU did not have the courage to fight for Ukraine's freedom and democracy.
    2
  22. Worse. They're not towns, just small farming villages. Its not a mid semester progress report, just weekly test results.
    2
  23. Perhaps you did not know that USA was planning to put nukes in Ukraine, after it joined NATO which Russia had repeatedly against it. Have you heard of Cuba crisis ? Even USA could not tolerate nukes to be put in Cuba and threatened war. Its just that Zelensky did not learn the lesson after the annexation of Crimea in 2014 that Russia was very serious in war.
    2
  24. Still remembered NATO/EU tried to destroy Russia economy in 2022 ? Biden once wanted to turn Rubles into waste papers. Its a wonder that Russians still living a decent life.
    1
  25.  @viktor1496  So had USA and UK for dishonouring the guarantee security agreements with Ukraine. When Ukraine needed USA and UK soldiers against Russia on 24/2/22, their reactions were : I"ll give you weapons, you fight.
    1
  26. @Henry Hudson Maybe because that person realised Ukraine would be ridden with debts, that would have to be repaid for a few generations after the war ended. Also, NATO/EU failure to destroy Russia economy in 2022, and the fact that countries in Europe shamelessly imported Russian energy through 3rd party.
    1
  27. @Henry Hudson I don't know the terms of the lend/lease and loans from NATO/EU, but I doubt it would be so generous as to be almost "free".
    1
  28. @Henry Hudson I doubt NATO/EU would have the patience to wait for a few generations for a a strong and wealthy Ukriane before demanding their lend/lease and loans to be repaid.
    1
  29. Yes...but you can't deny Russia survive NATO/EU economic sanctions onslaught. Its currency didn't turn to waste paper that USA had hoped for.
    1
  30. By then, after 10 years, Russia would have officially annexed the 4 regions like Crimea with Ukraine, a permanent neutral country. China would have surpassed USA and be a global power.
    1
  31. Yes, put demon USA down for its past 50 years of wrecking world peace, with its armed interventions, regimes change, invasions, sanctions and terrorism around the globe.
    1
  32. Tactical retreat.
    1
  33. Fake numbers or not, you could not deny Russia's economy, didn't collapse.
    1
  34. Wrong comparison. Nazi Germany was fighting 2 major fronts with its war materials drying up in 1944. On the other hand, Putin Russia with lots of war resources was defending its occupied lands against Ukraine, which depended entirely on NATO/EU supports, without which Ukraine would not be even able to defend itself.
    1
  35. Good news for USA.
    1
  36. Yeah, except that Ukraine would have no money from non sale of grains to buy weapons.
    1
  37.  @calimerohnir3311  It might not really matter in the short term. But this is an attrition war, it would definitely hurt Ukraine in the long term if the blockade is effective.
    1
  38.  @calimerohnir3311  Have you read the disclaimer from TLDR News EU ? If not, please read.
    1
  39. Tactical retreat.
    1
  40. You're describing USA ?
    1
  41. NATO has no courage to send formal, professional soldiers to Ukraine to face Russian forces, and USA is too broke to hire mercenaries to Ukraine.
    1
  42. After the counter offensive ended ( sigh ).
    1
  43.  @joeswanson5486  No, Ukraine wont. 2 more days and we would enter Sep 23. Soon it would be Winter in Ukraine which Zelensky grand counter offensive would force to end. The earliest delivery of 6 F16 would only be early Spring 2024 to begin round 2, maybe.
    1
  44. Its already 12/5/23. Still no news of counter offensive from Ukraine. The so called offensive had been postphoned from winter 2022 to spring to summer 2023. Is Ukraine waiting for Russia offensive ?
    1
  45.  @toddpick8007  Didn't Ukraine postponed the grand counter offensive for more than half a year ? From winter to spring to June ( summer ).
    1
  46. Drones from Iran, ammo from North Korea and money from China. Still, Russia against USA and 30 other countries. Impressive.
    1
  47. Ukraine already delayed its grand counter offensive from winter to spring to June ( summer ). No more excuses !
    1
  48. That meant USA and UK had failed Ukraine for not sending formal, professional soldiers to drive Russia out of Ukraine.
    1
  49. Do it right ? Which means Ukraine wants to postpone the counter offensive till next year ?
    1
  50.  @Agent_N7  The whole world had been waiting for more than half a year for Ukraine's grand counter offensive. Whatever planning or scenerios that might happened during battles should have been considered by Ukraine military. No excuses for the "pause". 2 more weeks ? That means Russia has 2 more weeks to beef up their defenses.
    1
  51. You're joking ? Since Ukraine has no navy and US F16.
    1
  52. The pilots maybe ready in Autumn, the jets may arrived in winter and Ukraine could restart counter offensive in spring or summer, again.
    1
  53. Same with NATO. The organisation is too weak to intervene militarily due to its economic recession and military "drained" by Ukraine and Israel ( for USA ).
    1
  54. No need as most, if not all NATO/EU politicians are hypocrites. For example, their country import oil from a third party, India knowing full well that it imported crude oil from Russia to "process". If they have to be "out", then most governments in NATO/EU would faced crisis.
    1
  55. Just blame the weather for their incompetence ( sigh ).
    1
  56. If that was the case, the Russo-Ukraine war would be bring forward to 2014 before Ukraine joins NATO. Since Zelensky was not president at that time, Russia would have claim victory quickly.
    1
  57. And abandons Donbas region.
    1
  58.  @Inkan1969  You do know Ukraine is having manpower problems. As such, how to defend Donbas region in the north while launching an all out attack at Kherson, and perhaps even Crimea in the south ?
    1
  59.  @Inkan1969  The informations was from the Taiwan news outlets.
    1
  60.  @Inkan1969  They got it from Europe.
    1
  61.  @Inkan1969  At least, it was not from Russia.
    1
  62. This means Russia could afford a 10 year Russo-Ukraine war.
    1
  63. Meanwhile, the battle for Bakhmut continues with the fate of Donbas region in the balance. Also, its maybe time for Russia to move some of its 700,000 conscripts to the frontline.
    1
  64. Ukraine could do it if it abandons Donbas region to Russia.
    1
  65. Maybe.....But it's still better than USA. Many Americans can't even afford McDonald's fast food.
    1
  66. Perhaps its time for Russia to move some of the 700,000 conscripts.
    1
  67. As many as it can be. NATO/EU would fight Russia till the last Ukrainian.
    1
  68.  @scottkrater2131  Because of the flood ?
    1
  69.  @scottkrater2131  So the Russian cared enough to evacuate civilians first in case of bombardmemt.
    1
  70.  @scottkrater2131  At least the city or town's people are alive before the Russian blew the crap out of it.
    1
  71. Ukraine could do it once it abandons Donbas region to Russia.
    1
  72. Putin so petty ? I assumed you still remember that Russia and Ukraine are still at war ? Its no surprise that Russia blockaded Ukraine sea passage. What was surprising was that Russia agreed Ukraine to sell grains by way of Black Sea for more than a year, so that it could buy weapons and ammo to fight Russia.
    1
  73. Ukraine could claim victory after breaking 5 defensive lines and liberate Tomak from Russia.
    1
  74. If Ukraine attack from Kherson to Crimea, would it abandons the Donbas region to Russia ?
    1
  75. It seems that another Bakhmut is forming.
    1
  76. Most likely its Ukraine or USA that blew up the dam, not Russia. The reason was obvious as Russia controlled the dam. If Russia wanted to flood Kherson, it just need to open the flood gates but it would deprive water to Crimea which Ukraine and USA desired.
    1
  77.  @davidty2006  let's the artilleries do the talking ? Don't you know Russia vastly outnumbered Ukraine in artilleries ? Unless you are saying, My brother in Christ ( Putin ). You don't negotiate with a dictator ( Zelensky ).
    1
  78. Its called TLDR News EU and you expected impartiality ?
    1
  79.  @Sammyli99  It had. Still remember Ukraine's S300 missile U-turn to bomb Poland in 2022.
    1
  80. In the attrition war, the best offense is defense.
    1
  81. Why so troublesome ? Just send a 100,000 formal, professional US soldiers to help Ukraine drive the Russian out of the 4 regions and Crimea. As you said, End it !
    1
  82. Yes...yet NATO/EU failed to destroy Russia economy with their economic sanctions onslaught. The Russian society still remains relatively calm as compared to its Western counterparts.
    1
  83. Isn't Ukraine military is drafting minors and elders from the west for war in east ?
    1
  84.  @sirdeadlock  I knew official draft age is 18 - 60 years old in 2022 but after 11 military mobilisations, it seems Ukraine is drafting "unofficially".
    1
  85. International court of Justice would be packed Ukraine and NATO/EU officials waiting to be charged.
    1
  86. Meanwhile, the battle at Bakhmut continues. Once it ends, the battle for the rest of Donbas region would begin. It is keeping Zelensky on his toes.
    1
  87. How big is Georgia ? If the incompetent Russian military could occupy the 4 regions and Crimea, Georgia has to think many times before making decision to attack Russia.
    1
  88. Everyone knew Ukraine is having manpower problems. That cannot be deceptive in warfare.
    1
  89. No sanctions but no financial or economic help from friends either to the democratic Russia at that time.
    1
  90. It seemed that the counter offensive would fail. According to this video, the Ukrainians have yet to breach the 1st defense line out of 5.
    1
  91. No excuses for the "pause", since the whole world had been waiting for Ukraine's grand counter offensive for more than half a year. Every planning and scenerios should already have been considered by its military. If even the grand counter offensive is NOT no Ukraine side, then it means that Ukraine is unable to retake back the 4 regions and Crimea, even with NATO/EU supports. Ukraine should initiate peace negotiations with Russia. Give up the 4 regions and Crimea and be a permanent neutral country.
    1
  92. And abandons Donbas region.
    1
  93. At least its "land" line. More difficult to jam than IPhone.
    1
  94. You would have known Ukraine is having manpower problems. To attack at all 3 options without sufficient numbers mean complete failure. Ukraine would also lose Donbas region.
    1
  95. Its the NATO/EU economic sanctions onslaught to Russia that caused the inflations in Europe.
    1
  96.  @5hurik  Maybe because Russia was just using Wagner mercenaries to do the heavy fighting in Bakhmut, while Ukraine is all in after its 6 months delayed grand counter offensive ?
    1
  97. Not so. European nations would end up as vassals of USA while Russia would be "Canada" partner of China, though Ukraine might end up as a failed state.
    1
  98. Except USA could not support war torn Ukraine forever. Also, it expects Ukraine to repay loans and lend/lease with high interest after the war.
    1
  99. Don't you know USA is having a political civil war between Rupublicans and Democrats ? Donald Trump said if he was elected, the Russo-Ukraine war could end in 24 hours. Also, Ukraine would not have a blank cheque for war. As for money, USA is desperately trying to borrow money from rich countries to prevent the country from being bankrupt.
    1
  100. I agreed with you. No country in war would announced to the whole world, it was going to have a grand counter offensive, and had it delayed for over half a year. Then within 2 weeks of fighting of the grand counter offensive, announced to the world, it is taking a break. That's not how combat works.
    1
  101. In drips and draps.
    1
  102. UN was once a tool of USA.
    1
  103. I am neither but the answer is yes. Remember vice president Kamala of USA formally welcome Ukraine to join NATO in Nov 2021 ? NATO knew Russia opposed it, still the invitation. Worse, NATO planned to install nuclear missiles in it after Ukraine becomes a member ( Cuba crisis all over again ). In the end, there is no peace, only war.
    1
  104.  @CheapSquierBassPlayer  Yeah. Russia would be a powerful "Canada" partner of China.
    1
  105. Since UK had signed a guarantee security agreement with Ukraine, it should send formal, professional soldiers, jets and ships to help Ukraine repel Russia invasion.
    1
  106. No need to wait. Just leave "this burning trashcan of a country".
    1
  107. Divide and conquer ? Maybe Russia is also thinking the same tactics. Ukraine attacks the east bank of Dnipro River, while Russia continues their push to the rest of Donbas region after Bakhmut. The one which could do battles on two fronts simultaneously would win the offensive.
    1
  108. How could it be similiar to Korean war ? Unlike Korean war when USA sent soldiers to repel North Korea invasion, USA had no courage to send soldiers to repel Russia invasion from Ukraine.
    1
  109. USA had their own Blackwater but with 31.5 trillion in debts, USA did not have "extra" money to hire mercenaries.
    1
  110. Same with USA for blaming China for their misfortune.
    1
  111. The audio cut out "tactical retreat".
