Hitler didn't have a column of mercenaries shooting down the luffewaffen and get within 100km of berlin before stopping due the intervention of Gen Franco.He really is modern day Hitler. Except Hitler had an active underground movement planning to depose him.
Russians and foreign vatnik copelords abroad will pretty much lap-up any narrative RT puts out, so if the war ended today the claim will be "[MAP AS OF NOW] was always the plan!"
Putin the savy political genius he is always intended for the Urals to the border between Russia Europe. Not only will any assault have to go over fortified mountains the Russians control, but now the Finland/Sweden additions to NATO have been completely nullified. Its a complete masterstroke, NATO, Euros and Burgers totally BTFO. By abandoning Moscow to the Poles he's managed to free Russia from the entrenched political elite and oligarchs; why drain a swamp when you can just let your enemies have and die slowly of disease?
The NAFO types posting in the other thread are cheering like this some victory because they are idiots, this is just another case of Russia's methodical, grinding execution of the war. The US is going to go bankrupt attempting to secure everything west of the Urals, meanwhile Siberia is where all the natural resources are, and the only section bordering the #1 purchaser, China. Putin has just really trimmed down Russian society to true peak performance, getting rid of the useless oligarchs and queers in St. Petersburg. NATO can have them. And all this while Belarus continues to host Wagner; Wagner and Belarusian miliatary will totally decimate NATO's supply lines from the rear when the time comes for Putin to counter attack. The entire NATO front cut off and isolated, an entire country side full of dead amerimuts and polish mercenaries once Putin is ready to move, you love it to see it.
Trust the plan, we'll retake Bakhmut in two weeks.
Russian supply definitely plays a part.The Russians have been slow walking it. It's not like they did one huge mass mobilization. They do a little bit at a time. I think it's every few months they call up more people. I think it might be a combination of things. The biggest one being that Putin worries about a large scale mobilization causing political instability. There is definitely a shortage of equipment for infantry. I have seen the videos of conscripts being told they have to provide everything else and all the Russian army has to provide them with is a uniform and weapon. I don't know if the Russians have started issuing old AK-47's or if they are still supplying conscripts with newer versions like AK-74's. But supply issues definitely play a role. The Russians said they didn't have anymore T-62's or T-55's left and they started pulling them out of storage fixing them up and shipping them to Ukraine. So they probably still have AK-47's sitting around as well. Then ammo comes into the picture. Do they have enough 7.62 ammo left? I would say they probably do. The Russians lie about what they have and don't have.
The Russians could just keep slow walking the mobilization. We are only going to call up another 100,000 men then that's it. A few months later "oh damn we need another 200,000". It's like a mobilization without calling it mobilization. Kind of like they did with the war calling it a SMO. The Russians are just playing the Western word games.
In WWII USSR had more than enough rifles, uniforms, and boots for soldiers, but their logistics were so shit and overrun with corruption that they weren't able to get those items from ports, factories, and warehouses to the troops that needed them.
Of course WWII USSR had the excuse of Hitler's sudden but inevitable betrayal bringing the war to them. Putin's Russia launched the invasion, and you'd think before doing that you'd have unfucked your logistics.
The US has had the ability to supply Europe's energy needs with LNG since the 70s energy crisis highlighted that strategic vulnerabilit. Europe has lacked the facilities and logistics to process what it'd need, but something has happened to make greenlighting and onlining LNG facilities in Europe a priority. But I don't know what it could be....
He wants a NATO roadmap like the Former Satellites got (I forget the official term). It is a document that says "do this, this and this, and unless you've done something like start gassing Jews en-masse you get let into NATO once its done". Ukraine isn't going to get one until this over, because that roadmap is going to be leverage to force Ukraine to the peace table if shit bogs down and it looks like unpopular realities need to be accepted, also to keep them from going full Slav in the aftermath - I'm also 98% sure that roadmap is going to include a lot of demilitarization and moving installations from Western borders to Eastern ones.My understanding of the whole thing is that he wants a clear, laid out, in writing process of joining NATO when hostilities cease. It gives him a massive political win and a light at the end of the tunnel.
This is the thing that pisses me off the most about the whole situation: How utterly pointless the past decade has been. Putin could have just accepted Ukraine would trade with the EU, and eaten his small L while using the ties with the country to consider every single Politician, General, and Bureaucrat was on their payroll. None of this shit, none of this death or chaos, was needed they could have softpowered their way back.Hmmm? They were friends in 2011? But what happened in 2014? What horrible Globohomo plot was unleashed to tear apart this brotherly bond? Oh wait...
Instead Putin is a toddler throwing things because he only was allowed to get one candy bar.
