MasterKernel:
Illiteracy is the very first sign of extremism. What took Russia 5 months to gain, went down in less than a week.

Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporzizhia, Kherson and Crimea are under the control of separatist groups, not Russia.

Kindly read up and stop making fool of the school that graduated you.
Not really bro. The two Separatist groups alone stand no chance against such an overwhelming Ukrainian forces of 600,000 standing army. Hence, the Russian limited intervention.

The whole of Luhansk region was taking by Russian regular forces supported by Donbass militias.

Zaporzizhia was taken by Regular Russian forces dressed like hunters hunting bear in the snow. You can go back and watch the footage when they stormed the nuclear plant earlier on. cool

Kherson was the first city to fall to the Russian regular army.

Donestsk city and some accompanying towns (not the whole region yet, which is still a work in progress) is under the control of the Donetsk People's Republic milita supported by Russian forces from all directions.

This is why Russia need additional troops to support the ones on ground because when you look at the map of the territories they hold currently, you will see that they are so stretched thin that without additional troops, they can't dig in deep defensively. Heck, they even stationed military police to guard Izyum because they're critically short of manpower. Hence, the rapid success of the tactical push by the Ukie forces in that direction lately.

No, they didn't lose everything they gained for the past five months. Calm down with the exaggeration. cool They only lost 6000 square kilometers of land, with Izyum being the most strategically important one. They still hold 136,000 square kilometers of territory, and that includes the four regions that would be holding referendum to join Moscow tomorrow. That's not a small achievement with less than 300,000 men. We are talking of a territory that is as big as Bulgaria and Belgium combined.

Lastly, Crimea is not under the control of separatists. It is a full fledged Russian territory with their own provincial governing authority. You can research it.

So much ignorance on this thread.

Those regions are about to be part of the Russian Federation and Russia is preparing to defend her territory. Its as simple as that.

Ukraine does not have an army now. Its all NATO.

This is a war between Russia and 30 countries under NATO.
Facts.

Russian propaganda got to your head. Ukraine has never forced anyone to fight, they have more volunteers than they can handle.
Really? So you don't know about the law that forbids Ukrainian men of fighting age from leaving the country? They even asked governments of nations where Ukrainians are refugees to deport Ukrainians who are 18 years and above.

They don't know the definition between failure and achievements. In their books, achievements is when you retake 6000 sq kilometers of a defenseless land with huge losses and lose 136,000 sq kilometers of land to the enemy. Now you can see why the west believed that Africans are living on expired education.

Russia is winning. 300k troops are just marching parade in kiev. It is just 3 days war.
collective east is facing and decimating ukraine.
No, don't mind the Russian bots like Appleyard and Shogsman. cool

Ukraine is winning by taking 6000 sq kilometers of land with more than 400,000 standing army while Russia is losing by holding 136,000 sq kilometers of territory with less than 200,000 troops. The Russian losses are so evident that they are planning to hold referendums in 4 huge regions tomorrow and the partial mobilisation are not for combat experienced personnels but for women, disabled and inexperienced citizens like Zelensky's great army. cool

It's pathetic how they're so frantically grasping at straws. You can tell even from a mile that the Putin's masterstroke move hit some nerves and changes the focus. Now, Zelensky is talking about negotiations with Russia but based on static demands only. cool

Why are you so insecured? It shows in your rant. cool

Lmao. I don't even watch nor read Tass or Sputnik. There are more than 101 balanced news outlets that are neither pro east or west. I can help you with links if you want. cool

A handful of people who disagree now equate 142 million Russians? How alluring. cool

Just a simple partial mobilisation and your slave masters with your enslaved mentality are already shitting in their pants. Take a chill pill, gringo. cheesy It will take another 2 months to position those troops. The only bad news is that Russian Arctic forces and regional troops are being prepared to fill in the gap awaiting the deployment of the mobilize troops. cool

You have nothing to worry Mr. cool

It's common everywhere. People flee or protest when situations like this erupt. Many Americans protested and refused to be drafted to Vietnam. Thousands of Ukrainian youths have refused to return to the country for fear or being drafted into the war. Average people will do everything to avoid war.

texazzpete:
You know why I like this?

Now they’re whining about full mobilization and ‘using all their power’, when you see Ukraine continue to crush them and rout their armies, you will have to cling to another excuse.


They are now down to making wild claims of NATO forces fighting them in Ukraine, instead of admitting that their poorly motivated and poorly kitted active army is being shown up by motivated Ukrainian troops.


Let me see the excuse @shogsman and @Appleyard et Al will cling to. Let Russia push through their retirees and poorly trained conscripts into the meat grinder and see how far they get.
You're disappointing me, dear. cool

Fact: Russia barely lose a war when they mobilize.

You're just repeating the gibberish of what you saw on the Lamestream media. Every Dick and Harry knows Russia was fighting the whole of NATO in Ukraine.

Russia's regular army in Ukraine is just 150,000. The rest are Donbass militias and Wagner fighting contractors which are not even up to 200k combined, and that is why they are so stretched across the contact lines like we saw in Kharkov recently. Yet, with such small force, Russia has carved out 30% of Ukraine, and you are here talking about a meat grinder? Just imagine what an additional 300,000 soldiers would do to Ukraine who has been sending cannon fodders into the Russian meat grinders.

Are you actually trying to compare losses in this SMO? Ukraine have mobilised 5 times and they keep losing hundreds of soldiers everyday.

Oh, I see you are one of those misguided by the recent Ukrainian success in the Kharkov region, which the western media has amplified beyond the reality of what is on ground. Interesting.

The Ukrainians took back about 6000 sq kilometers of land that was obviously undermanned and you're so hopeful compared to the 166,000 sq kilometers currently held by Russia with such meager force? cool

Quit dreaming, friend. With this mobilisation, it's game over for Ukraine whose so-called offensive has already stalled by the way.

That is exactly what I was saying earlier. The Russian tank storage alone will take hundreds of kilometers when they line up, and these are just the numbers known to western intelligence sources. It's a pity that Ukraine allowed itself to be goaded into this fruitless battle.

In business people sell at discounted prices, and if Russ decide to sell to their allies at a discount, what's your business? You're crying more than the bereaved EU baby. cool

Allies support and sell things to each other all the time, including weapons in peace and war time, and for different reasons.

There was a time when Russia wanted to buy helicopter carrier ships from France, not that they can't produce it themselves, but the ship building yards in Russia are already saturated with projects of other nature.

US buys weapons from others also. See below.

If Russia was as invincible and powerful you make them look they would not have invaded Ukraine out of fear.
What weapoon does Russia have that USA dont? USA remains the super power after the collapse of Soviet Union.
Hitler had already defeated Russia in WW2 but his pride he stopped his soldiers from going to Moscow but chilled and went to Stalingard which was a mistake.
China is there you are talking of Russia. China with 3 billion people and crazy arsenal.
Russia is just a chest beater n noise maker.
If they use nuke the world will use nuke on them too. Who loose?
So because Russia is powerful it shouldn't look out for it's own interest and security especially against an adversely (NATO) that has repeatedly made known it's hatred for her? You're not making sense.

If we are to go by your logic, which I think is warped, why is USA threatening the government of the Solomon Island against allowing China to have a permanent military base there? Isn't the US not the world so-called sole superpower? Why then is she wary of China?

This is called being pragmatic and preemptive in securing one's sphere of influence and strategic advantage.

The USSR made the mistake of trusting the enemy and despite having a "none aggression pact" with Germany, the Nazis still invaded surprisingly and we know how that cost the Soviet people, the ripples of which is still being felt today. Russia will NEVER make that mistake again...allowing NATO to encamp her and pack missiles at its doorsteps is, as Putin rightly puts it, a treasonable offence that generations of Russians to come would never forgive them for. And Ukraine is the last straw on that REDLINE.

USA and Europe has weapons but they're woke and it is affecting them, which is why Taliban kicked them out in Afghanistan.
If Russia declares war on Ukraine today,e don finish for Ukraine because na to kill everything there and the horror will probably be too much for even us pro Russia to bear
Even Ukrainian forces confessed that Russia was firing like 12k rounds of artillery shells every 10-15 minutes as such that it looks like it was raining hell from heaven, forcing them to stay in their trenches for days. Yet, the Lamestream media decieved many of our brothers here that Russia has run out of missiles and firepower. Like you said, so many people here are misinformed.

I saw a funny thread here about if Russia can actually win in Ukraine and I just laughed because of how stupid it sounds,the question should be if Ukraine actually have a chance in hell.
Russia is not even fighting up to minimum capacity in Ukraine, it's used approximately less than 4% of it's 3.5million strong army without any notable mobilization or conscription and it's already controlled 30% of Ukraine.

Nobody with an actual brain can think Ukraine will win Russia.
If Russia declares war on Ukraine today and mobilize troops Ukraine won't last one month before it turns into a pile of crap
-A country has over 12,000 tactical nuclear weapons
-6,000 nuclear weapons
-the beautiful pantsir missile hell ball
-an army of 3.5million
-almost 30,000 tanks
-krasuka electronic warfare system specifically built to scramble everything electronic you have before bombing you to hell
-self propelled artillery numbering in the tens of thousands
-hypersonic missiles
-hybrid missiles
-dozens of nuclear powered submarines like the yaen class subs that was designed to deploy nuclear weapons with the sole aim of sinking aircraft carriers
-air force with over 5,000 aircrafts
thousands of suicide drones
-tens of thousand of recon drones
-avangard hypersonic glide vehicles that can travel faster than the speed of sound and deploy nukes capable of destroying a whole country at once
-tupolev tu stealth bombes than can nuke your country without your radar detecting it
-100s of battle ships like the mighty Kirov battle cruiser that can release hell on you from a continent away.
-Literarily millions of missiles.
Russia literarily used a whole city for weapons storage that's how crazy they are.the
You lots really need to read up and study.

USA had to create NATO an alliance of over 30 countries to fight only Russia, if that doesn't tell you how powerful this people are , you're dumb.

Russians at home don't know anything about the war in Ukraine that's how little resources used in Ukraine are, kalingrad alone holds more weapons than most EU COUNTRIES.

So if you think Ukraine can win a real war with Russia you're stoopid
This list is not even close to what Russia have in store. You only just scratch the surface. But it's still a big deal. They rolled out their old Soviet stuff against Ukraine because that is what much of what Ukraine has consist also, and people start hollering Russia has nothing.

Like you said, anyone that actually expect Ukraine to win against Russia has been propagandize beyond redemption. From the onset, Ukraine never stood a chance.
