    American and British media for one, though they have been repeatedly embarrassed by their million articles about how Russia is just about to run out of guided missiles, which they started publishing in March and keep recycling every month. Belorussian dissidents and the Polish foreign office...

    The UK hasn't produced most of their own food since the 1800s They clearly aren't publishing any real numbers on production, as they've exceeded what at the US and UK militaries have publicly stated they were capable of by a huge magin. Even by the end of April they had fired more than double...

    Right, just like how Ukraine captured so many Russian tanks they had double the number the started the war with? But now are begging a heap of everything: If Oryx were right, why does Ukraine need all of that and is still losing in the Donbass? Why isn't Russia begging for peace? You...

    Will? Create? They've always existed, they've just had the opportunity to go international now and are already in action. I wonder how much human trafficking there has been and how much of the legal prostitution market is now dominated by Ukrainian refugees.

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/04/26/us-has-big-new-goal-ukraine-weaken-russia/ The US said explicitly the goal is to weaken Russia. Why is this the VERY first time they tried to reach out and negotiate? Or ask for an immediate cease fire? You should relearn history if that is...

    Have you not been looking at the maps of how the fighting has progressed this week? Also Blinken said the war goal is to weaken Russia not make peace: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/04/26/us-has-big-new-goal-ukraine-weaken-russia/

    At this point the information we're getting is so limited it is impossible to set time tables for anything. But watching the map situation evolve things are clearly getting quite bad for Ukraine and given both Germany and the US called Russia today asking for an immediate ceasefire it would...

    Article says this: No mention of new NATO members. Sounds like a polite way to say begging. Why now would he renew communications and 'urge an immediate ceasefire'? Maybe because the Donbass grouping of forces are about to get buttfucked hard without lube.

    The loss of the Moskva changes what exactly? The sortie rate is unnecessary given the artillery that the Russians have, as they planned for NATO air superiority. As it stands their artillery is crushing the Ukrainians or have you not noticed their advancing through several fortified belts that...

    Or he's playing the long game. Slow and steady wins the race.

    Just like the Germans thought the French were doing at Verdun. Turns out they were just rotating them out for a rest after they hit the proscribed time for any division on the front line so they didn't get worn out. Methinks this is the same case, they are getting a rest before being put back...

    Looks like a narrow salient begging to be cut off. Could be a job for that 4th GT division that was rotated out of Izyum.
