alloutofbubblegum7271 By taking it? Seems obvious.

alloutofbubblegum7271 But they took Kherson? They left due to being understaffed in 2022 and because of the precarious supply situation in the city. They aren't understaffed anymore.

alloutofbubblegum7271 If that were true Russia wouldn't have so comprehensively defeated Ukraine's offensive last year or would have paused after taking Avdiivka like they did after Bakhmut (although that was in part to prepare for the offensive in 2023).

alloutofbubblegum7271 How exactly does the build up of extensive fortifications blow a hole in my argument that the Russian army is no longer as badly undermanned as it used to be in 2022? As for Bakhmut, I did write that Russia seems to have waited for the Ukrainian offensive following their victory there, didn't I?

Bakhmut fell at the end of May, you had the Wagner mutiny and the Ukrainian offensive started in early June. Where exactly was the space for this major Russian offensive again? As for the ammunition, you are right. Not for the right reasons of course, you think the US has an endless supply it is not releasing, when the truth is that the US production simply can't keep up with demand.

alloutofbubblegum7271 You mean when they took Soledar and moved on Bakhmut? So before the fall of Bakhmut? Oh, and how exactly did that "fail"? As for the shells, if that were true the EU wouldn't have miserably failed to reach their last set delivery target (only sending 300k instead of a million shells). Same goes for the US, considering even CNN admits that Russia outproduces the USA and Europe by a factor of three.

alloutofbubblegum7271 I guess there was an attack on Vuledhar, so I suppose you are trying to say that the offensive failed, because Russia only took the biggest city targeted and not the side-objectives in different areas. As for your numbers, I'm sorry your wrong. The saints in Ukraine claimed differently. Also nice cope with that war economy comment. The latest goal post our politicians retreated to, after the sanctions utterly failed.

@JTMaster How would Ukraine have an accurate overview of the current demographic of Crimea, when Russian census reports from 2014 and 2021 do not bear out your numbers?

@JTMaster You can tell from all the large scale uprisings in Crimea since 2014.🙄

@JTMaster "Fact". Ukraine claims these numbers.
