@jordonstewart2092 man stop playing stupid. The Russian tactics at the start of the war clearly demonstrate they expected to take Kiev in a week or two. Geez

@amartynov7762 if what you say is true then what explains the Russian army's persistence after they realised they were facing significant resistance? Or the subsequent moves the made to outflank Ukrainian forces west and east of Kiev? They obviously thought their forces were sufficient to take Kiev even after facing heavy resistance so what more do you want? Acknowledge ut was a Russian failure on many levels and let's move on. This was a year ago for God's sake. Why are we still debating this?

@johanstinson 😂 so what were their tactics then?

@rajaydon1893 correction: Ukraine had not been preparing for an attack on Kiev for years. Most of their professional fighting force was in the Donbas East. So most of the resistance Russia faced was from TDF

@alifkazeryu8228 what does winter war have to do with this 😂? And a Ukrainian capitulation is the same as a Russian victory genius How convenient for you that you get to be "pro peace" and "pro Russian". That's how you sleep at night I guess. Forget that Russia started this war. You tell yourself you're on the right side of history. But somehow there is no chance of a Ukrainian victory? Don't speak to soon. You could be setting yourself up for serious disappointment...

@1DrBar intresing how you're a fan of Russian progress, yet you also want peace. How convenient...

@alifkazeryu8228 none of the excuses you mentioned are justification for war. They're just excuses. Bakhmut is also one city. Even if they take it, the war is FAR from over. So enjoy your victory if it comes to pass. But at the end of the day, the war in on Ukrainian territory. Like it or not, Ukraine will determine when this conflict ends, with or without western support And your here talking abt Hati 😂 😂

@MN-pf2kv so you are denying that Russian soldiers weren't told they were going into Ukraine until the day before the invasion? Are you also denying that they also had rations for only three days? How about Russian plans recoverd from Russian commanders? You denying all this is true?

@jordonstewart2092 have you not seen the types of tanks they are bringing out of storage? And aren't they using kamikaze drones? Are they attacking Ukraine with the same frequency with missiles? All the answers to these questions clearly demonstrate they are running low on these assets. So what more do you want? To it be confirmed by a state RU media? Think man..

@rajaydon1893 trenches north of Kiev?

@alifkazeryu8228 Really this war is over until Russia says it is? A war fought on Ukrainian territory? Yeah, keep dreaming. Russa can throw all it likes at Ukraine. That doesn't mean they'll win. The only way Russia wins this war is if Ukraine let's them, or Russia conquers the whole territory of Ukraine. And you and I know Russia cant conquer Ukraine Peace is one thing. But lasting peace is another. Giving Russia what it wants wont bring lasting peace. There can't be peace on Russia terms. Not after they initiated an unjustified war. We dont reward war mongers. Doing so will leave ALOT of questions unanswered. Its not a concern for another time. NOW IS THE TIME! Western support is running dry? Really 😂 ? You really think this is all the West has to offer? I guess that's why you guys love to beat your chest and challenge NATO You're only proving their only hope is to use people like you to discourage support for Ukraine and scare everybody in the West into agreeing to Russia's demands

@petersydow4002 masterful plan? 😂my God 😂 😂...

@petersydow4002 but Russia has wasted troops and equipment. They'ev suffered horrific losses so where's all this boasting coming from? 😂 😂 Tell me what gonna happen after July 😂. I'm waiting...

@user-ch1qv4qk4z your making alot claims outa your *ss about Ukraine's ability to fight. Then you'll come back minyts later making the same claims How many Russian units have been destroyed in Bakhmut? Oh lemme guess, you dont wanna talk about that...
1
@user-ch1qv4qk4z I asked you how many Russians had been kia in Bakhmut not their overall casualty number. In any case your estimates for Ukrainian casualties are way off even if you include the high casualty rate at the start of the war if you include Ukrainian militias and TDF units. It's around 60 -70,000 killed fyi What i said was you were downplaying Ukraine's ability to fight for other larger cities that were not 'fortified',saying it would be easier for the Russians to take them than Bakhmut. You've now compoundes it by saying they wont even last long enough to make use of new equipment coming into existence in the coming year. That's asinine talk and I rightly called you out on it. There are to many unknowns and you should know better. Unless its intentional and you actually don't care
1
@user-ch1qv4qk4z obviously Ukraine's human reserves are depleted. So are Russia's. And Wagner for that matter. But no one, not you nor I know Ukraines human reserve potential of fighting men. So all that you are saying isn't applicable if we don't know how many men they have available to go around. Nor do we know the same for Russia. So all this is speculation and is mute
1
@user-ch1qv4qk4z the picture you are painting is from circumstantial second hand information. It's not an accurate way to dissect second hand information. Why don't know the purpose of these instances where 'people where pulled off the streets'. Where they sent to the front or otherwise? We don't know. We also don't know the veracity of these claims. Are they true or not? Show me some convincing evidence. Otherwise these are far from 'facts'. Regardless, what you’re suggesting is speculation. And that in turn is not an accurate indication of Ukraine's fighting ability. Russia has obviously had its manpower depleted otherwise they wouldn't have mobilised the large numbers they have. And in order to get the number they needed, not all of those mobilised even have military experience. Again this is also not an indication of Russia's fighting ability. But there is a reason they haven't deployed more of their active personnel to Ukraine. Doing so will deplete their stock of professional soldiers and will leave them with only reservists available. That makes them vulnerable. Especially with all their tough talk towards NATO, that doesn't seem wise

@user-ch1qv4qk4z As i suspected, you dont actually know for sure any of what you are claiming to be fact. You also don't need professional soldiers to garrison 🙄. Reservists can do that. Especially if they have military experience. That's what the national guard does in the US in wartime You are free to believe Russia is 'winning' this war. You are free to believe they are butchering the Ukrainians. You are free to believe reservists weren't called up to also replace losses. But what you want to believe wont change the reality on the ground. Not to mention Russia needs to use mercenaries the Donbas 😂. It couldn't possibly be because they have a shortage of professional fighting soldiers, could it? I'll leave it at that. But you can't claim to value objectivity and then have an emotional reaction when you're asked to justify your claims. Just be pro Russian if that floats your boat. But stay outa the space objective people talk

@Taxolia and what's the truth?
