Rumor has it that if and when those in Mariupol surrender, the rest of Ukraine’s Army will break.

I disagree. Instead I firmly believe that the Kiev-junta might be able to keep battling away over the summer. They might? But in the autumn, when it starts to get colder and Putin turns off the gas to Ukraine, and perhaps even to all of the EU-countries?, things will turn very unpleasant and cold … very fast! Me thinks there might be no fighting at all by the end of the year. It will simply be too cold for the poor Ukrainian soldiers.

Boggs

When winter comes, Russian soldiers will start surrendering and deserting again en masse. Their equipment and clothes/uniforms are piss poor and they’ll freeze their asses off.

Hjalmar

Come on, man, everybody knows that the Russians are the toughest soldiers of all time, and when they fight in their own back yard (like in Ukraine) they are unbeatable. If you don’t believe me ask Adolf Hitler.

noname

in history toughest soldiers used to be germans , I am not german myself , I’m only saying . at the beginning were romans , then people from east like germans and francs , then again swiss ( the alabards changed the way to make war in the 15th century) then germans(Prussians) for many many years ( even if they loss the best soldiers in WWI and WWII were germans ) , untill war becomes a matter of money , nowadays it doesn’t matter how tough you are , in the end the richest wins , war is technology applied . the best technology wins , in ukraine for example is the datas incoming from NATO that are helping Ukraines a lot , expecially in how to find the objectives . russian army is really undermined by corruption , these poor kids entered ukraine without bulletproof vests , without food rations , without gps trackers , there are so many videos on internet about the lack of materials that makes feel bad for them , not to mention the chinese tires of the bmps who flatted out in the snow or in the mud , because no one made manteinance of the materials . probably the generals took the money instead . this is what makes me feel so bad , those poor young kids sent to die with not even a small chance to survive , they were dead even before entering ukraine . someone will pay for this , those fat pigs of burocrats will pay .

noname

in february the only soldiers dying for cold were the russians ones , sorry to tell you the truth no one else will tell ya over there

Curiosity kills the cat

That’s a strange rumor. Maybe that something like that would have been possible on the very first days, due to a larger propaganda effect.

But right now everyone in the Ukraine (and many in the west) sees Mariupol as a symbol of resistance. And everyone in the Ukraine would argue that these soldiers did far more than their duty.

On the Russian side however it is understood as an annoyance and obstacle that even overshadowed the 9th of May.

As such, how should it have such an effect? Especially considering the heavy weapons arriving, which most likely already had an effect on the Kharkiv area?

Clyde

The weapons had an effect on Russian troops that had already withdrawn? More Ghost of Kiev magic in the mystical failed Ukrainian CIA project!

Omas Bioladen

He saw it on ABC News and Amazon Prime action news. So in his world he believes it is the total israeli certified truth.

Curiosity kills the cat

Not sure what you are referring to or implying?

I doubt that Russian Forces already retreated like cowards before they got under fire. Never say never, as their morale surely isn’t the best, but I would qualify that as propaganda only.

And I would rather see the whole war as a failed FSB project, as the Russian intelligence must have been devastatingly false.

In this interview, you’ll hear from 2 White National Socialists in Europe whom I have known personally for quite a long time. The one is in Germany and the other is in Bulgaria. They monitor the Russians, in Russian and they have some very interesting information and thoughts on what is really going on in Ukraine as well as what the Russians are up to.

Why is Europe dependent on Russian gas and oil? Well, you’ll hear some shocking things.

Did you know what Russia signed an agreement with the USA acknowledging the independence of Ukraine? Did you know that in the Russian parliament it was stated, late in 2021, that on 22nd February 2022, that Russia would once again be a Great Power?

Is Germany really “Free” and “Democratic?”

You’ll hear some straight talk from Europeans. This show was recorded on: 2022-05-08.

Putinyahoo

Rumour has had it for 2 plus months lol

johnn nudo

All of the pro Ukraine propaganda in the Western Media isn’t for us. It’s is for the average Ukrainian soldier to “hold the line”, which, though brave, are not. They are losing about a half a battalion per day. That’s math and I can read a map. The severely wounded are already being brought out of Azovstal and sent to the Donetsk Republic. Once the rest come out Ukrainian moral is over.

johnn nudo

moonofalabama says Russians and Azovstal are in negotiations…….

NATO is laughing at Comedian whore Zelensky

Russia’s had its dick in Ukraines ass for 2 months.

That’s Stupid

That would make Russian troops gay then?

Elgar

That’s another wishful thinking. Ukies are dogged fighting and Russian forces when advancing most like have to withdraw/retreat somewhere else. RF has very few trained reserve forces left when NATO keep them busy now even behind 1300 km border of Finland.

Omas Bioladen

Erdocunt keeps Ni99er Animal Transgender Operation (NATO) busy.

Are you stupid or just desperate ? I mean, not even 20% of russian professional forces are engaged in Ukraine, so what are you on about bro ? You’re coping cause things are not going the way you’re wanting ?

noname

ahahahahahah , yep sure , the other 80% is playing cards in Montecarlo

Disinfo

Since the AZOV battalions aren’t really Ukranian military but instead an armed fascist hate group, I suspect the Ukranian army could care less about them.

Rattus

You’d hope that the Ukie army regulars will turn on any Azov SS members embedded within their ranks

Boggs

They would have when they could afford it. Right now, they need them to fight the Russian orcs.

Assad Defeated Zionists

They will have to once the world sees all those captured foreing fighters who basically control Zelenskyy, Ukraine and want to keep the war going.

Bob - Enough

You could be right there to a certain extent, the majority of both sides armed forces do not want this fight (brother on brother etc.), but whether the Ukies break depends on what and who is found in the tunnels. If the rumours are true and a biolab with Western military all over it – break may not be the right word, “wise-up and f’ck off home” could be the phrase used. Ukraine has been asset stripped of everything, including as somebody stated it’s people (by the millions).

The map says all. Look how much ground Russia lost.

Clyde

They haven’t lost any ground. The intention is to create a fascist-free buffer including the Donbas region and the region to the southwest toward Odessa. There have been no Ukrainian counterattacks whatsoever that resulted in territory seized from the Russians. The Russians simply withdrew. And what they hold is thousands of square km of territory of the failed Ukrainian CIA project and the total in the strategically important areas continues to expand. Ghost of Kiev much?

Slobodan

I am pretty sure it is a territory of Ukraine that you know… Ukraine lost.

Out of facts? Just as I thought. Even Zelensky can’t conceal the truth from his people. Just look at the Nazis in Azovstal. They surrendering already. Just as anyone would have guessed. Ukraine was finished from day one. Dimwits like you will never get this. You are just too brainwashed and too stupid to notice. Serves you right buddy. But don’t come weeping when your Ukie buddies get all crushed in the end.

Turkey has said no to that and to not send negotiators. Would not be surprised if France says no also. They know where their energy comes from and they will want to get back at the US for that submarine deal with Australia that went south.

Confirmed what? Nothing. They are not in NATO and they never will. Turkey just announced they will block them. They even said they should not bother to convince them of anything. The door for them is simply closed. This whole thing was just a big bluff. NATO’s incompetence has no limits. Yours BTW too. Commenting on that here and selling that as something that it isn’t, simply shows how stupid you really are.

Not likely. They have around 200.000 troops but only on paper. They had announced their last wave of conscripts last month. I guess they had about 75.000 and about half of that is gone or incapacitated. The rest is being eradicated very fast. In about 2 months they will be forced to declare surrender. There will be no army left.

Hahahahahaha good joke. Buddy, in the late summer, western economies will be cracking at the seams, currencies devaluing and food shortages increasing. NO one will be concerned about Ukraine. That’s why the US is trying to stuff as many billions through NOW. You clowns are stuck in the OLD husk of a system that is about to die and transition to something else.

Elaborate. Turkey has a different view on this topic. I assume you don’t have any different news on that. Turkey has found a lever to settle the score with US for snubbing them and for attacking their economy just because they bought Russian hardware. Erdogan may be a stubborn and narcissistic fella, but at least he understands how the world works. US is very weak now. No-one followed their call to side against Russia (beside their vassals/slaves). They couldn’t even whip up anyone to sell them oil. Now Turkey will humiliate them on that whole NATO matter. The world is slowly siding with the winning side, Russia.

Johannes Ekhman

More rain today and more expected late in the week. I assume the operations across the front have slowed because of this. Ukraine has made some advances around Kharkov. Not sure if this is because they have put together a powerful offensive force, the Russian morale is collapsing, or because the Russians have thinned this out to mass elsewhere for an offensive. Suspect the latter, but many other posting analysts seem to think it is because the Russian morale is collapsing. Zelensky has apparently spoken out in response to this optimism.

☝️Scott Ritter: “The idea that the Ukrainian military has been eliminated as an effective fighting force is a flawed concept, and unless Russia broadens its special military operation– probably to the point of changing it form a special military operation to a war which includes the totality of Ukrainian battle-space–(then) this is a conflict that is dangerously close to becoming unwinnable by Russia.”
