Ukraine’s new infantry recruits ‘freeze’ in face of Russian onslaught

As for Iranian and NK arms, we do not talk about dependence. Russia is just doing what the West does for Ukraine. Yet you don´t talk about dependence.
And of course you can ask, at what point Russia gives in. But as for now it is the US that comes to this conclusion. How will Ukraine fight without the US but with Euro peace doves that are often trash weapons, as you can see in this thread?

Both sides are suffering high casualties and having difficulties acquiring adequate weapons and ammunition to press the war, but so far it is not clear that Ukraine will run out of soldiers, as you have claimed, before Russia finds the burden of pursuing the war too great to continue.

From the beginning of the war, everyone has known Ukraine was heavily dependent on military aid from the US, EU and others, but finding out the once mighty Russian military is in the same fix has caused a sharp downward reevaluation of Russia's conventional military capabilities. Russia today looks far weaker compared to European forces than it did before it invaded Ukraine.

You got that link and claim the opposite. Opinion is free but we only can debate based on facts.
And is bot an insult? You don´t respond to the facts provided.

Yes, it's an insult. An insult given the way you did was meant to be offensive and demeaning.

And accurate

Paid for by Russia? if you have any actual evidence you should send it to the police

The police (federal) are owned by the Orange Cheeto and it's going to have to be either the Judicial or congress. The evidence is already there.

This is wishful thinking. Russia can not only easily make up for their losses, they are also massively arming at the same time.

The highest ranking German soldier said Russia´s army will be twice as large in 2026 as it was in 2022:

Generalinspekteur der Bundeswehr: „Russlands Streitkräfte werden 2026 doppelt so groß sein wie vor dem Angriffskrieg“ - WELT

Russland rüstet deutlich mehr auf, als für den Krieg gegen die Ukraine gebraucht wird, warnt Generalinspekteur Carsten Breuer. Deutschlands oberster Soldat muss bis 2029 die Bundeswehr so kriegstüchtig machen, dass sie gegen Putins Russland gewappnet ist. Schon jetzt stellt er im „oft trägen...

On the other side there are no European forces worth talking about. What they had were given to Ukraine. They want to rearm now but they start from scratch. No reservists to call up, no arms to use, no ammunition to fire.

It is time for you to realize that Russia is the winner and nobody else.

 

[Bleipriester]

Yes, it's an insult. An insult given the way you did was meant to be offensive and demeaning.

Stop the bs. The board is full of real insults. Don´t act like a bot, than you won´t called be a bot.

The EU tariff suspension for Ukrainian goods runs out in June. It will be replaced by another regulation but it probably means massive losses for Ukraine of about €1,2bn and only the following goods might be duty free then:

wheat, corn, oats, poultry, honey and sugar

Експорт з обмеженнями: що означатиме для України відмова ЄС від “воєнних пільг” у торгівлі

Яким буде формат торгових відносин України та ЄС після завершення у червні дії автономним торговельних преференцій?

Google blocked the link with the message it was a dangerous site - did you know this when you posted the link - but nevertheless, both sides lie about casualties for propaganda purposes. The fact is estimates of casualties and the influence of these estimates on either side's ability to press the war, are opinions, not facts.

The great western colonial powers lost their colonies not because their militaries were defeated but because the cost of maintaining control over the colonies became so great they outweighed the benefits of keeping the colony. With Russia now dependent on NK and Iran for weapons and ammunition and on NK and others for fighters, it is reasonable to ask, at what point will Russia come to the same conclusion Britain and France did, that the cost of keeping control of Ukraine is too great?

We have seen no evidence North Korean military are involved in combat in Ukraine yet you keep repeating that propaganda.

Google will block anything that doesn't go along with the official Western narrative.

Maybe that was just a lame excuse. And they won´t block Financial Times.
However, who leaves the decision on what sites he can visit to others, has no need to complain of the term bot.

You are arguing that Russia can stay in the war, but then so can Ukraine which makes the war unwinnable. The question is, how long will Russia be willing to squander its resources on this unwinnable war?

We have seen no evidence North Korean military are involved in combat in Ukraine yet you keep repeating that propaganda.

I'm sure you know there have been numerous reports of North Korean soldiers fighting in Ukraine - about 12,000 soldiers and 500 officers, and that Russia has been dependent on artillery shells from NK for some time, and that massive shelling with these NK artillery shells lies at the core of Russia's battle strategy. It used to be that NK was dependent on weapons and from Russia, but now that Russia is in so far above its head in the Ukrainian war, it is Russia that is dependent on NK.

North Korea soldiers, weapons helped Russia at critical moment in war on Ukraine

North Korea supplied huge quantities of Russian artillery and mortar shells fired against Ukrainian forces.

No. Ukraine cannot. Their strength is crumbling as you can read in the provided articles. You keep ignoring that fact.
The soldiers are thrown into the fire like coal. 30.000 losses each month, replaced by new coal with no training, no motivation and no arms. Yet, they have such a shortage of soldiers that they rely on their drones now. Entire front lines only protected by drones.

I will stop that here. You just keep reposting your unfounded claims. This is not an actual conversation.
This thread is full of information and this "debate" only destroys it.

US worked to ‘set its demands realistically’ in talks with Iran – RT source

The US and Iran held indirect negotiations in Rome on Saturday

www.rt.com

RT source says! This spells trouble for America/Zionists if RT is saying it.

America/Zionists have never set demands realistically, concerning Iran's obvious goal of complying with demands for peaceful use of nuclear energy.

If America was making the claiim, it would be meaningless. But its not America, it's Russia. Trump's hide has now slipped into a dangerous situation!

Again, both Russia and Ukraine are facing the same problems, horrendous casualties and heavy dependence on allies for weapons and ammunition, and in Russia's case, increasing dependence on foreign fighters. None of this suggests Ukraine will surrender anytime soon. I understand President Trump's rhetoric may have given some hope to Russia's supporters, but the US continues to supply about 45% of Ukraine's weapons and ammunition and there are ongoing talks about supplying Ukraine with longer range artillery weapons. The question remains unanswered: how long will Russia be willing to squander its wealth and resources on this unwinnable war?

Think in terms of a general tone of it being America/Zionist regime vs. the Brics alliance. It's all quite a meaningless debate unless everything is considered under 'Trump's intentions' in the ME and FE. (far east)

Russia/China have received information that Trump may not play the 'nuclear weapons' game against Iran this time.

The immediate concern is now over Trump's survival!

Are we about to see a breaking point on Zionist aggression and America's aggression against Russia?

Could Trump be looking ahead to recruiting Russia to join in the program to stop China from taking all the marbles?

You are living in an alternative universe, it's Ukraine that is short of men, have you not seen the kidnapping of men on the streets by Ukrainian Goon squads?

See? It doesn´t matter what I write, you just repost the same over and over again.

And to finally give you my estimation: Russia will continue until Ukraine officially cedes all four demanded regions to Russia and declares it won´t seek Nato membership. Russia has the resources and the will to do so and there is nobody who can change this.
