Russia invades Ukraine Feb 2022

[seafoid]

Last week it was announced that North Korea had delivered long rang missile to Russia for use in the Kursk area. This week Biden announced the delivery of long range missiles for use in the Kursk area. Germany has also delivered 4000 drones.

Guy on the radio today saying that if Russia continues it will win the war.

Making inroads into Ukrainian territory at the minute, driving them back won't be done with letting off these rockets

"If" Russia continues, but having 1500 casualties per day and losing 50 armoured vehicles means continuing is a bit of a challenge. Even at the present accelerated pace Russia will not occupy all of Ukraine until 2050.

This was from someone who's better placed than you or I

You'll get lots of conflicting opinions on the situation at the various fronts, some a lot more pessimistic than others.

Who was the speaker out of interest?

Yeah I heard an interview with him on Times radio. Very downbeat on Ukraine's prospects. Is he right? Maybe. No one knows for sure, including him.

All sorts of conflicting opinions from experts on that Radio show. Former Ambassadors, diplomats, ex military etc.

That's true, plenty of different stories, but I'd say they'd have a better inside knowledge, contacts and more up to date on the state of affairs than the average Joe on here.

Plenty of experts offering up a similar opinion as Armaghniac about Russia's unsustainable attrition rate.

Indeed, and they are getting paid for it whereas you get it for free.
Russia reckons they have a bigger population and Putin does not care about losses, so send in the meat waves. But this approach also loses vehicles, artillery etc and they are beginning to run out.
I think that Russia has made a push to maximise their position by January and then have some sort of ceasefire deal which reduces sanctions so they can recharge to for the next push. One small fly in the ointment is Ukraine occupying part of Kursk, Putin might not like a ceasefire deal which leaves them in long control of part of Russia. The Russians made a big push in Kursk, using some new kit, but they hardly reached the Ukrainian lines, mostly coming a cropper in minefields.

And now Ukraine have also been granted limited use of longer range weapons in Kursk.

What beats me, is why even make a announcement, deploy them and the truth of using them, will come out in the long grass. Why even give Russia a heads up.The propaganda war sometimes overlooks the need for secrecy.

[Tony Baloney]

Biden will be letting Ukraine fill their boots before Putin's mate takes over in January.

From one of the VERY VERY few members of Congress who doesn't shill for AIPAC

By authorizing long range missiles to strike inside Russia, Biden is committing  an unconstitutional Act of War that endangers the lives of all U.S. citizens. This is an impeachable offense, but the reality is he's an emasculated puppet of a deep state

If Russia has to move its resources further back then that is an outcome in itself.

Given the billions of £s of Russian money currently in London, do you think that's ever going to happen?
