This is one of the most gullible post I have read this year.

Let me take you way back. If a Yoruba General is defeated in a war, the General must either commit suicide or he will be banished completely from the land.

Again, this report is from British Intelligence, and does not have the name of the person that wrote the report everyone is quoting. I am a branding expert and can recognise serious PR when I see it. The same western expert who used video game to illustrate Ukrainians decimating Russians. These same guys first said Putin was on steroid then later said he has cancer. They also helped push the ghost of kyiv and snake island mature reports which even western media now acknowledges, are not real. I can go on and on. British media is the worst. Only idiots rely on British media for serious info on Russia-Ukraine war. Before you trust any news, check the source and find out if the source was even present or has anybody present at the location.

Vladimir Putin has suspended two senior commanders over Russia's failure to capture Kharkiv and the sinking of Black Sea Fleet flagship Moskva, during the Ukraine invasion

Russia has fired senior commanders who are considered to have performed poorly during the early stages of the Ukraine invasion, according to British intelligence.

Vladimir Putin is said to have axed two of his military leaders in relation to the failure to capture second city Kharkiv as well as the sinking of Moscow's flagship Moskva.


Lieutenant General Serhiy Kisel, who commanded the elite 1st Guards Tank Army, has been suspended, as has Vice Admiral Igor Osipov, who commanded Russia ’s Black Sea Fleet.

Russian Chief of the General Staff Valeriy Gerasimov, meanwhile, likely remains in a post, but it is unclear whether he "retains the confidence of President Putin", the intelligence says.


A statement from the Ministry of Defence adds: "A culture of coverups and scapegoating is probably prevalent within the Russian military and security system.

"Many officials involved in the invasion of Ukraine will likely be increasingly distracted by efforts to avoid personal culpability for Russia’s operational setbacks."


The 510-crew missile Moskva ship was struck by two Ukrainian missiles and was a major military blow for Russia.

Putin's nation still refuses to acknowledge that dozens and even hundreds of missing sailors on the ship are dead after it sank on April 14
.


Kharkiv fell early during the war but in recent weeks, Russian forces have abandoned the area around the city.

"We have some success in these directions," Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's Chief of Staff Andriy Yermak told MSNBC this week.

It came as invaders across the country were forced to completely change tact after struggling to gain a central foothold as it moved in on Kyiv.

The capital city has always held firm and Kremlin fighters were eventually ordered to withdraw from the region to focus on the southeast.

However, despite several weeks of further bloody conflict on the new main front in the Donbas border region - which Moscow claims on behalf of separatists - it has made little headway.


Where Putin has seen rare success, is in Mariupol.

After months of daily shell attacks leaving the southern strategic port city almost completely in ruins, 700 Ukrainian fighters have this week surrendered allowing Russia to shore up control.


Kyiv has ordered its garrison in Mariupol to stand down, but the ultimate outcome of Europe's bloodiest battle for decades remains unresolved.

Moscow says it is engaged in a "special military operation" to demilitarise and "denazify" its neighbour.

The West and Kyiv call that a false pretext for invasion.

Around Slovyansk to the north of Donetsk, in the Donbas, Russian forces "suffered significant losses" around the settlement of Velyka Komyshuvakha, according to reports.

Ukrainian forces shelled a border village in Russia's western region of Kursk at dawn on Thursday, killing at least one civilian, regional Russian Governor Roman Starovoit said.

Ukrainian presidential adviser Oleksiy Arestovych said Ukrainian saboteurs had blown up railway tracks ahead of an armoured train carrying Russian troops in the occupied southern city of Melitopol.

1. The source is an international news platform.

2. The source and other news outlets from its country (and other western nations) have broken news of Russian wins/gains in this war. Somehow, any news favouring Russia and its interests is accepted but those favouring Ukraine are tagged as propaganda.

3. Again, somehow, any info emanating from Russian/eastern media is accepted since the narratives suit the desires of pro-Russian readers. This is so even though there has been reports of Russian media's loss of autonomy.

4. My point is, we tend to only accept information that suit our narratives. In doing this, we forget that we rely on these same international media houses for over 80% of the news we digest.

5. The above is the nature of the human mind.

Why do the same politicians not embrace Russia if Russia is a bed of roses for them?

Why would basically almost all of Europe find solace in each other except with Russia if Russia was such a great and warm hearted country?

This is not a USA issue but a Russian problem. They destroy relationships and then try to make it look like you are the one to blame.

Croatia cannot oppose Finland or Sweden from Joining NATO. Their President is the one saying he would direct their ambassador to oppose it but ironically their President has no such power or business to interfere with NATO or her decisions.

The decision is made by the North Atlantic Council, which consists of ambassadors from the 30 member states.

In essence he cannot instruct his Ambassador to do anything as that is against the laws governing NATO.

His opinion is therefore Useless.

Regarding Turkey it's just a diplomatic problem regarding the Kurds and weapons they want from USA and possible lifting of some sanctions placed on them.

That would also be resolved diplomatically. So don't worry too much smiley wink
Turkey have problems with Sweden and Finland sponsoring Kurds which are terrorist according to turkey, same Kurds the US used to slit Syria and steal their crude righthuh Turkey allowed Greece to join NATO today Greece standing up to turkey why should turkey make same mistake with these twohuh??

Russia likewise China has their own identity as a people and will not be influenced by the outside world ,the west must learn democracy and western practices is not for everyone.

Everything you see it all about democracy vs ...... , Like I said democracy is not for everyone ,all the bloodshed is the middle east is yet to produce any democratic success nor in Iraq, Syria,Libyan, Afghanistan among others.

Kindly tell me why NATO is trying to circle Russia militarily if not for future warhuhhuh

Sweden and Finland joining NATO is same as declaring war on Russia.

Why is Cuba still suffering from US sanctionshuh?

Why is the US , Australia and New Zealand threatening military actions against Solomon's island for having a military cooperation with china huh? Is Solomon Islands not sovereign territory is make their own decisionshuh

Hypocrisy is the problem of the west , US and NATO invaded Iraq and kill millions they claim iraq was security threat, for a country that doesn't share borders with any NATO country nor have the resource to harm any .
Yet have problems with Russia defending a direct threat at her borders righthuh??

Kindly tell me why all the countries around Russia are joining NATO and not on the side of Russia.

NATO is designed for defence and not attack.

Why is Russia so afraid of NATO if it does not have any future plans to attack Europe as it did Ukraine?

There are other countries in Europe who are not NATO members yet NATO countries are their neighbours. Why do they not have issues with NATO?

Use your head for once and see beyond your Nose. What is Russia so afraid of when it comes to an organization that is DEFENSIVE?

NATO has invaded helpless and defenceless countries , what countries has NATO defended itself fromhuhhuh??
Kosovo , Afghanistan,Iraq and Libya , Syria through proxy.

NATO is designed to oppress not defend ,it like a cult group that offers protection for joining and end up bullying others not having a cult group to protect them.

NATO has two target Russia and China and they don't hide it ,they discuss it openly . Does China has a border around NATOhuh??

I scrolled to check the source first. I wasn't surprised.

Western media always talking rubbish
Re: Vladimir Putin Suspends Two Generals After Kharkiv Failure And Sinking Of Moskva by Nobody: 7:41pm On May 19, 2022
Granted that the Russians are notorious for propaganda, I have always been careful of how I digest any
information
from them. However, I was shocked to realise western media are equally bias if not more outrageous with regards to this war. Both sides are truly using propaganda but one side has more opportunities to use it more than the other.
