@charlescarabott7692 LOL, like you know the number of troops that Russia would need. Facts are Russia is getting its ass kicked on the battlefield. It’s suffering humiliating losses. Russia’s military is not the mighty force that its propaganda portrayed it to be.

You’re living in a dream world. Russia attacked Ukraine on multiple fronts, and it suffered humiliating losses. It had equipment lined up to conquer Kiev, but logistically many of the tanks, armored vehicles, etc., ran out of fuel. Not only that but Russia had once again poor communications. It soldiers calls were intercepted and you could hear how they were being defeated, and that their generals didn’t know what they were doing. Speaking of generals, Russia has lost a large number of them, and its troops have very low morale. Russia came nowhere close to achieving its objectives, and its now falling back to less desired ones because it’s getting its ass kicked on the battlefield.

@Ethio today Hahaha, keep telling yourself that. Russia tried to conquer Ukraine and it didn’t go down as planned. The whole world has seen Russia’s humiliating defeat. The fact that Russia has shut down the internet, made it a crime to openly speak anything contrary to the Russian government’s propaganda, where people can’t even use the words “war” or “invasion” just shows that Russia is trying to cover up its colossal failure.

@Ethio today What other countries shut down the internet? Sounds like another Russian lie. I read from many sources, from all over, and they all are saying the same thing, Russia lost in a humiliating way. Furthermore, Russia enacted laws making it a crime to have a an opposing opinion, and its shut down independent news stations. Russia claimed it was making surgical attacks, which is hilarious when you look at the cities that have been flattened.

@charlescarabott7692 Use some common sense. Sweden and Finland aren’t NATO members, and officially they’re neutral countries too, but you know very well that they would side with NATO over Russia any day. You can expect the same with Ukraine. In fact, they’re providing arms to Ukraine to fight Russia. Ukraine has already been rejected by NATO, and there were no plans to add it anytime soon. Ukraine now knows that if Russia does another foolish attack that NATO will once again provide arms to it to defeat the Russian forces. My gawd, you’re so brainwashed. Does NATO have nuclear missiles on Russia’s borders now in countries like Estonia, Poland or Latvia? No. Has NATO ever attacked another country for the purpose of conquering it? No. NATO has only expanded for the reason that Russia is attacking Ukraine right now. They want protection against Russia. All NATO members have willingly joined, none were forced. One of the main reasons why Ukraine wasn’t accepted is due to its large amount of corruption. Ukraine hasn’t completely lost the South and East. In fact, Russia’s forces have retreated on both fronts. Russia to this day still doesn’t have Odessa. It’s forces are taking heavy losses, and against a country that doesn’t even have a professional army, and many of its forces are volunteers. If you watch them they’re all having a great time with high morale. You can’t win a war without it.

@isailevilopez5134 In a moral world, Russia wouldn’t have started a war based on lies. Russia accused Ukraine of committing genocide and having mass grave sites in eastern Ukraine, but Russia to date hasn’t shown any proof. Ukraine challenged Russia to provide evidence before the UN, but Russia ran away and boycotted the hearings. And Russia is not ramping up its military operations, it got its ass kicked and is retreating. Russia suffered humiliating losses, and to this day it continues to tell lies about what really happened. Putin is an evil thug. At one time Russia and Ukraine were close allies, almost like brothers, and its people thought highly of Putin. He ruined that bond. The Ukrainian people will despise Russia for generations to come. It’s sad when you really think about it.

@donnmckee4973 And what are your sources, the Russian media that is controlled by Putin? There are many videos here on YouTube that have people who analyze what’s happening on the battlefield. Many will support it with videos showing Ukrainians taking back territory that Russia once held. There are countless videos of Russian armor getting annihilated, of its troops abandoning equipment, of Russian soldiers complaining about not having food, proper clothing, fuel for their vehicles, etc. Many Russian generals have also been killed, which is extremely rare. The war hasn’t gone well for Russia. Soldiers who’ve been captured were told that Russia would conquer the territory and it would be over in three days. Many speculate that Russia didn’t anticipate Ukraine to fight back, and that it would be another easy win like what happened with Crimea.

@donnmckee4973 Don’t know where my other comment disappeared to, but there are numbers of articles about heavy Russian losses and how its forces are retreating. It doesn’t matter that Russia has other forces elsewhere in large numbers, that’s irrelevant. Russia badly judged Ukrainian resistance. It also was stupid to spread its forces where they were vulnerable, and Russia has shown once again that it has poor comms and SEAD abilities, just like in Georgia. It’s been an embarrassment with its logistical problems, especially considering the conflict is on its own border. Russia thought that it would be a walk in the park. It found out otherwise and is suffering huge losses. Other than the Russian media you won’t find any source that supports that Russia is winning. In fact you’ve evaded the question on what your source is that Russia is succeeding. Practically everything that Russia has gained from its initial attack has to some extent been lost. If Russia wanted to send all of its forces to Ukraine and prolong the war, sure it could do that, but at the same time hurting its strategic interests in other areas. On the battlefield Russia is suffering humiliating defeats. Cities that it once controlled have been lost in battle. Ukrainian forces have shown to have very high morale, which is a good indication that they’re doing well and succeeding. Plus, there are numerous videos showing huge losses of Russian equipment. You can also find Ukrainian forces liberating town once controlled by Russia. Quite frankly, you’re living in denial. What part of Colorado do you live? I bet you’re another Russian troll lying pretending to live somewhere else.

@donnmckee4973 Of course Zelenski is going to concede on certain points that don’t mean as much to him. He rightfully wants the war to be over. He wants to set back the lines and to agree to hold future discussions about Donbas. He hasn’t agreed to just give it to Russia, but to agree to have further talks about the area. You’re arguing that Russia could send its reserves into Ukraine as being the reason why Russia is winning is laughable. The USA could have sent in all its reserves into Vietnam, but that didn’t happen. When China fought Vietnam in 1979, China had a huge advantage with manpower and equipment, and it lost. It’s highly advantageous to be the defending army. Russia miscalculated the Ukrainian resistance, and its forces are getting their asses whipped. Russia never expected such huge losses. Russia has lost more troops than what the USA did in over twenty years in Afghanistan and Iraq. Zelenski already knows that Ukraine’s desire to join NATO has been stuck in limbo. Ukraine tried before and was denied, and it wasn’t even an agenda item in the near future. Ukraine’s record for corruption is horrible, and it’s one of the plaguing reasons why it wasn’t being added to the alliance. Plus Zelenski now knows that NATO now has his back by providing weapons if Russia attacks again. Ukraine’s agreement to remain neutral isn’t a big deal. Finland and Sweden are officially neutral, but they’re very much NATO partners. Ukraine hasn’t controlled eastern Ukraine for years. It’s not like it’s a huge loss. And probably after Putin dies Ukraine can pull a Russian and renege on the deal.

@charlescarabott7692 They have not surrendered to all of the demands, just the ones that aren’t as important. Ukraine wants this unjust war to be over, and is willing to make concessions to make it happen. It was already doubtful that Ukraine would be added to NATO anytime soon, and Russian separatists have had control of Donbas for years. Russian tanks, armored vehicles, trucks, helicopters, aircraft, etc. all litter the ground all over Ukraine. Russian ships have been sunk, and many Russians have surrendered. You can find countless videos of Russian armor getting decimated. Plus, the fact that Putin shut down the internet, closed all independent media outlets, and has made it a crime to speak out information contrary to that of the government, it all shows that Russia is hiding what’s taking place.

@Ethio today Typical Russian troll response.
1
@charlescarabott7692 And who says that the information that you saw is accurate? There are many videos of Russian armor columns just sitting because try ran out of fuel. There are many others that have been decimated. The majority of the gains that Russia initially took have been lost, and the Russians are retreating. Voice communications have been intercepted where you can hear how the war isn’t going well for Russia. Russia can’t even get air superiority over a second hand air force. Numerous Russian fighters and helicopters have been shot down. You’re fooling yourself if you actually believe that Russia has done well. Russia’s military has been a mockery.
1
@charlescarabott7692 Hahaha, that’s the funniest thing I have read all day. Russia’s troops have been seen abandoning their equipment. They literally just abandon the equipment and walk off into the forest. In other cases the equipment has been maintained so poorly that it breaks down. Haven’t you seen the Russian trucks that broke down on the sides of the road with dry rot on their wheels? It’s from letting trucks sit in one place too long, and the wheels get dried out from the sun beating down on them. Haven’t you seen the Ukrainian farmers towing away Russian tanks, armored vehicles, etc.?

@isailevilopez5134 Peace talks are just that, talks. It doesn’t mean they’ve succeeded as the war is still continuing.

@charlescarabott7692 Dude, there’s no help for you. You’re so brainwashed that you’re not being sensible. There are many, many videos of not just Ukrainian soldiers showing that they’re having a great time, but of foreign volunteers, too. Don’t give me that crap that they’re actors. If so, they’d be the best actors on the planet. You can see how cheerful they are after defeating Russian forces, or as they match off into battle. It’s widely known that Russia’s troops are demoralized, that many don’t believe and support the war. And the farmers sure as hell didn’t stage towing Russian equipment away. Russia has left behind tons of equipment. Tanks, armored vehicles, SAMs, electronic warfare equipment, etc. Recently even T-90s were captured. And Russia is leaving it behind in masses. There are now jokes that Ukraine’s farmers have the largest tank force in Ukraine. Don’t you watch the videos here on YouTube that show Russia’s equipment getting destroyed, being abandoned, breaking down, etc.?
1
@charlescarabott7692 Who’s reporting that Russia has largely succeeded? That’s the biggest joke around. They’re running, retreating. There’s even a video today of a Russian truck leaving troops behind and it can’t get away fast enough. Who says that Russia is succeeding, the Russian media? Hahaha. The same media over the years that has blamed the USA for causing earthquakes, bad weather, Russia’s failed satellite launches, illnesses, including Covid, Russia’s drug problems, etc. The same media that said the crew of the USS DonaldCook abandoning ship after getting buzzed by a Russian Su? The Russian media has no credibility. It’s why Russia shut down the internet and independent news channels, to filter what you see. What is really sad is that you’re actually falling for it. There are no plans to put nuclear missiles in the Baltic nations. That’s just Russian hype. Russia has lied since day one of the invasion, and yet you still believe it. Who cares if you don’t have heating when Russia has already destroyed the place. There are almost four million refugees as a result of Russia’s attack. WTF is wrong with you?

@charlescarabott7692 I have been keeping up in the news closely, and only Russia is saying things are going according to plan. Of course he is going to make concessions, that’s how negotiations work. Otherwise the war can go on for a long time, which nobody wants, except for possibly crazy lunatic Putin. Russia is going to have to give up some of its demands too. Russia is on the defensive, and it’s lost a lot of territory that it once gained. Russia is losing miserably, you just can’t accept it. Zelenski issued his position earlier today, and he never agreed to handing over Donbas. He said it’s a complex issue that can be resolved with future discussions. And Ukraine’s not joining isn’t a big deal anyway, as the alliance didn’t have any plans in the near future to include it. Ukraine can be like Sweden or Finland, which are neutral countries, but they partner with NATO. And please stop bringing up bullshit that only the Russian media claims.

@ahmedhassan-hl1qw LOL, Zelenski tried to bring Putin to the table at the very start of the war, but Putin repeatedly declined. Ukraine has killed and injured more Russians in one month than what the USA lost in Afghanistan and Iraq in twenty years. Russia will lose no matter what happens from here on out. The people of Ukraine who once admired Putin and deeply respected Russia now hate them, and it will be that way for generations to come. Russia isn’t only losing the war, its economy s in decline, and its without needed technology from the west. It’s two tank manufacturing plants have shut down because of needed imports of western tech, and that’s just one of many examples. It’s hard arguing with people who don’t know wtf they’re talking about.
