The situation in Eastern Ukraine is critical. Russia and Ukraine are on the brink of an open armed conflict. In this context, many military experts suggest their opinions and forecasts on the military developments in the region. The position of famous warlord Igor Strelkov is definitely one that deserves special attention.
He became popular during the so-called Crimean Spring in 2014. Strelkov took part in the process of the Crimean unification with Russia, after which in Eastern Ukraine, he was one of the first who organized an open resistance to the nationalist forces that had earlier staged a coup in Kiev. During his military activity, he became more and more critical of Kremlin’s factual position. According to his later statements, the situation in Donbass remains close to disastrous due to the policy of the definite part of the Russian elite. Asserting his views, Strelkov even got in conflict with the Russian President’s adviser at that time Vladislav Surkov. As a result, Strelkov was forced to leave Eastern Ukraine and lost the opportunity to influence in the situation in the region.
In ideology, Strelkov’s vision may be characterized in terms that today become known as “Orthodox socialism.” This concept is based on justice, conciliarity, national unity and social responsibility.
Strelkov is widely known as a strong supporter of the so-called “Russian world” concept. This term despite the using of the word “Russian” has nothing to do with nationalism or a hurrah-patriotic adherence to the ideas of monarchism.
“The Russian world (Pax Rossica) is the social totality associated with Russian culture. Russkiy Mir is the core culture of Russia and is in interaction with the diverse cultures of Russia through traditions, history and the Russian language. It comprises also the Russian diaspora with its influence in the world. The concept is based on the notion of “Russianness”, and both have been considered ambiguous. The Russian world and awareness of it arose through Russian history and was shaped by the respective period.
The term received a new sound in the 21st century against the background of the restoration of the foreign policy influence of the Russian state, on the one hand, and the intensifying attacks on Russian culture and the Russian language in the former Soviet republics, on the other.
Today the “Russian world” is often indicated as a threat in speeches of Moscow’s geopolitical rivals, justifying the need to contain Russia.”
In the politic field, Strelkov is a supporter of the authoritarian strong Russian state, where social life is based on the principles indicated above.
In military terms, during the hostilities in 2014-2015 and to the present, he claimed that the only chance to ensure peace in Eastern Ukraine was a full participation of the Russian army and taking control of the Ukrainian territory at least to the Dnieper River.
Thus, Igor Strelkov is a rather controversial person. However, he is one of the few alive warlords of the 2014-2015 period, who deeply knows the situation inside the region, simultaneously being a dogged critic of Kremlin policy. His analysis is very valuable for predicting the situation and simulation of possible developments.
“At the end of the day:
1. The war between Russia and Ukraine is inevitable, but at the moment (in April), it is very likely;
2. For Russia and the Russian People, war “now” is preferable to war later;
3. The USA now will not fight for Ukraine with 99% probability;
4. Comments were disabled, I will not answer clarifying questions in private messages.” – Strelkov wrote in Telegram and Vkontakte.
On April 4, he published a post on his Telegram channel reflecting his opinion on the current situation in Eastern Ukraine. There were 3 main ideas:
The first one was that the war between Russia and Ukraine is inevitable, but at the moment (in April), it is very likely.
Many military experts agree with his opinion about state of affairs in the region.
The development of the current political situation in Russia, whatever directions it would move in, sooner or later will lead to an armed conflict with Ukraine. No matter which side would instigate the conflict. If the power remains in the hands of the so-called “Putin’s team”, the conflict will develop according to the current scenario and, as a result, most likely it will dissolve into armed one in short or mid terms. Even in case of radical changes in Russia and the coming to power of pro-Western opposition, the escalation would not be avoided. The Ukrainian military thought is based on the core ideas of deoccupation of the Eastern regions and taking control, in its further advance, over a good part of Russian territory. For example, it is referring to the Rostov, Krasnodar and even Volgograd regions. Thus, the weakening of Russia as a result of internal political turmoils may lead to the decision of the current Ukrainian leadership to start a major military operation in the regions with strategic goal to give checkmate to the Russian Federation.
Secondly, for Russia and the Russian People, war “now” is preferable to war later.
Igor Strelkov adheres to this position throughout the entire conflict in Ukraine. The longer the conflict drags on, the more the nationalist regime that came to power in Ukraine strengthens. At the same time in Russia, the so-called “Crimean effect”, i.e. social excitement, build-up caused by Russian geopolitical successes in 2014-2016, is weakening. In previous years, this phenomenon contributed to increase the level of support for the Putin’s government.
Today, when the conflict in Eastern Ukraine has been persisting for 7 years, any attempts to settle it peacefully are ineffective. Considering the complicated political situation in Russia, there are no signs that the current government has found a recipe to prevent further internal deterioration. Thus, the longer the hot phase of the conflict would be postponed, the worse the conditions of the Russian side would be.
In its turn, the hot phase of the conflict in Eastern Ukraine may become a kind of medicine necessary for Moscow that would be used as an internal unifying factor.
Thirdly, the USA now will not fight for Ukraine with 99% probability.
Firstly, one should take into account the current domestic political situation in the United States, where a transitional period with the new government is taking place. A participation in a military conflict is possible only if there are threats to a key ally of the Americans, which Ukraine is not.
Secondly, the global foreign policy situation is not favorable for the deployment of US forces far beyond the country’s borders. The Biden administration must first of all confront the growing global influence of China, which is also likely to be indirectly involved in the military conflict in Ukraine, for example, through financial support. On April 2, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov received Zhang Hanhui, Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China to the Russian Federation. The exact topics that were discussed during the negotiations were not unveiled, but it is not difficult to assume that the military escalation in the Donbass region became part of the talks.
At the same time, the position of the United States in the Middle East is not stable. The Biden administration is actively working to regulate the relations with key partners in the region, developing its position on the main issues, including the Iranian nuclear deal, the Syrian crisis, the situation in Iraq, etc.
At the moment, Washington has a number of problems of paramount importance for maintaining its global influence, which does not allow it to openly intervene in the approaching war in Ukraine. However, in the near future, in a year or more, the Biden administration will strengthen US positions in key regions. Nothing will be able to contain it.
I hope as a United States citizen the Deep State/CIA will not intervene–(Joe Biden is an empty suit)
You mean the terrorist Ziocorporate globalist regime? All US presidents, including the so-called “anti-deep state maverick” Trumpet are empty suits at their service. And it’s not just in the US; EU/Canada/Australia/etc. are the same shit.
We must defend our Ukrainian friends at all costs, we must defend our Saudi friends at all costs, we must defend our Israeli friends at all costs, we must defend our Taiwanese friends at all costs, never mind that our borders are being overrun by illegals. MAGA.
“Dont think what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country Israel”! Are you an anti-Semite or a self-hating Jew?
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
I’d say FBI beaurocrats too.
The deep state will fight, until the last ukrainian.
Logically the USA is in no position to start a shooting war with Russia militarily, domestically or economically. After the last couple of centuries the Russians are likely to react in a very nasty, very unpredictable way to any threat of invasion. They know better than any nation on earth the horrors of total war and they won’t be victims again.
That being said there is nothing logical about blundering into a war. The wheels start to turn and before you know it bang.
To put it in perspective this year the USA gave $3.8B and $8B in loan guarantees to Israel, sold $8.2 B in arms to the Saudi’s and keeps a permanent military force in the country. By contrast they gave the Ukraine $125M this year and $250M last year so belicosity aside the Ukraine isn’t too important to the USA.
I think what they will do is incite a conflict between the Ukraine and Russia then use that to turn the Germany and France against the Nord Stream 2 pipeline as punishment.
I am totally with Igor here. He is a proper Russian leader “Orthodox socialism”, is the ancient way of conducting society for Slavs. It has worked for thousands of years and yet there are people trying to change this? It is the Western Caucasians who are nothing but pirates, Viking terrorists, warlords, capitalists. Their system consumes, voraciously, everything around it and then when everything is depleted they move on to another territory which usually means war since there are people in that territory. It is the system of death for they worship death.
With that cryptoslavic mentality, Serbia will only get smaller.
Worry about kiev and tel Aviv instead…
I don’t think so. All the capitals in the world will be fine. I bet you don’t even know hiw many they are.
You spelled neo trotskyist globalists wrong… Most the real capitalists comitted suicide or were killed a few years ago. Around 80 high ranking bankers. The rest are the toyboys whom are puppets. And globalists wont be fine, they have crossed the red line. Vengeance is on its way… Have a nice day 🥓.

what does that even mean?!?!! accusing Slav of having “cryptoslavic mentality” ?!? is like accusing Muslim of having “cryptomuslim mentality” ! totally nonsensical !!! use dictionary on the internet it can help you !
Dude, I’m partly slav, I never said all slavs have that crypto(pan)slavic mentality, maybe less than 10% of them.
Oh now is crypto(PAN)slavic ?!
You are full of it, don’t waste my time !
Yeah crypto pan trans queer slavic
Are you trying reverse psychology on me?
I don’t even know what that is but yeah, why not.
We behave much like a virus.
Really western European “culture” has only been a worldwide thing for the last 600 years. Prior to that we were basically rowdy turnip farmers who occasionally ventured out on raids. The great cultures of the east didn’t bother us over the millennia because they were afraid of cooties.
I for one am getting back to my “roots’ by planting a large turnip crop this year and I have an eye on a nice culvert down the road for when the end times come.
All known viruses come from a monkey in Africa. Everybody knows that. Only by coincidences these patented viruses ended up in Rockefellers, Pentagon’s and Bill Gates laboratories. Same with us!
380 trillion viruses are living on and inside human body!
7 million Jew virus cells are spreading in Occupied Palestine. Russia is infected by a larger cohort.
Bacteria. Not viruses.
It’s 380 trillion viruses,10 times the number of bacteria (38 trillion) just to have correct numbers,
Jew virus started in Russia and Ukraine.
Russia must conquer Khazaria in the next 1-2 months, and convince Italy and Germany it is the right thing to do. Then NATO can be broken apart. This is the final chance or the Babylon ZOG is coming to take over the whole of humanity permanently. Russians will be serfs again for the new Babylonian tech oligarchy.
The deep state that runs my country under Jew auspices has decided to Balkanize Russia for its immense natural resources. They want Russian wealth to pay for the war against China. Unlike the economically weak and corrupt USSR, the Chinese are too rich and smart for the US to compete in an arms race, so US will take over corrupt Jew infested Russia first and use Russian money and resources to arm up. Putin is a putz anyway and will hand over Russia on a platter.
I hope I am wrong, but the Jew shill corrupt senile Biden is pushing for a war against Russia as the deep state Zionists are totally in control of US sh1thole. The Bilderberg global parasites see Russia as the final frontier for exploitation. Russia needs to bog them down in the Middle East and Afghanistan. The stupid Ameriswine are bankrupt and multiple wars from Iraq to Yemen will put them in the doghouse and expedite China’s rise even faster.

They want Khazaria
“Orthodox Socialism”. I like this term!
“The situation in Eastern Ukraine is critical. Russia and Ukraine are on the brink of an open armed conflict.” Does this mean Russian forces are in Eastern Ukraine?:)))
That’s what the western press keeps saying.

Thankfully he isnt.
then your previous comments don’t make sense anymore. do you want to try again posting something more logical?
Sorry but your LSD laced magic wand isn’t working here. Try again at Ukropisstan Today… Oh my bad, that’s the past… In this case better luck next time, Trollstoy🙃👍 Don’t forget to ask your supervisor for further instructions… And dont let your matzoball soup get cold… Slurp it up now.

You may want to check the map my good lad :)) Russia nad Ukraine share quiet a border … including in the eastern Ukraine.. And you may want to check the meaning of dot at the end of the sentence..
RT 5 Apr, 2021 Reports of Russian troops ‘massing’ near Ukraine miss the mark: Russia-Ukraine war is possible, but only if Ukraine strikes first
As tensions escalate in eastern Ukraine, the real danger is not a Russian invasion, but that the Ukrainian government will misinterpret American signals of support as a green light for an assault on the rebel republics in Donbass….. …………….warned against huge civilian casualties. In the face of such casualties, there is a high probability that Russia would intervene, especially now that large numbers of the inhabitants of Donbass have acquired Russian passports. The result would be an all-out war between Russia and Ukraine. There can be no doubt that Russia would win such a war, probably very quickly. Therefore, if the West really wishes to help Ukraine, it should be using all its diplomatic power to ensure that the Ukrainian government does not seek to resolve its problems by military means. https://www.rt.com/russia/520127-ukraine-donbass-open-war/
If the motivation of Ukraine is to stop NS2 at all costs, it looks like it will succeed.
Ukrainian delusions…never stop. Even if temporarily stopped (out of which Ukraine has nothing but probable losing of half of its territory) That pipeline is built legally, so stays there, till dollar collapses and US loses its influence over Germany and EU…after which NS2 will start to work on full capacity. Because EU, German needs for gas are bigger than current offerings and can only grow even bigger than that.
The pipe could be finished since is built by Russian companies but all 16 German companies that were building underwater installations for the pipe, pulled out this year. So it might never work and Ukraine is making sure sanctions will stay in place forever. If Russia will gain another territory from Ukraine, EU will totally ditch Russian gas and oil in maximum 5 years because NATO will block any trade with Russia. Hopefully Chinese friends will behave like gentlemen.
“Ukraine is making sure sanctions will stay in place forever” My English is not so good Which word describes state of mind that corresponds to “ultimate delusion” beyond any limits or possible recovery? Brain dead, or full r e t a r d? Ukraine is 3rd world country with African standard of living and the biggest beggar in Europe. Western EU-rope is fed up with Ukraine. Germany would NEVER put Ukrainian interests above their own.
If dollar collapses, there will be no NATO either but European Defense! Russia has already agreement with Germany and France that in the case of Ukrainian invasion of Donbass has their green light to intervene.
But sanctions have HELPED Russia by giving impetus to previously under-used domestic industrial and agricultural capacities…BMW and Mercedes have moved car and truck plants to Petrograd and Moscow so Russia learns new skills also (there are MANY such cases), military sourcing has become more reliable (even under quasi-friendly Kiev govts., such supply was problematic, cf. Antonov non-deliveries!), note also Russia being Global wheat exporter lead 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 (even though 2020 was a queer year).
“Germany would NEVER put Ukrainian interests above their own.”
Really? My compatriots don’t have such a thing as an “own interest”
“Ukraine is 3rd world country with African standard of living”
You are offending a lot of African countries with this comparison…
Ethiopia with help of China is making good progress finally…and I wonder why 50 African leaders went to Solchi, NOT Washington DC, for security conference last year! With China investment and Russian weapons, I think Africa may finally leave it’s semi-colonial stage (independent in name only).
I agree… But I didn’t know how else to say that…
All that you say is true “If dollar collapses” :) that’s the only chance for Russia to be great again :)))
Russia was “great” enough to alone oppose to NATO – Western world and not only in Russia but in Syria also ! They don’t need to be greater than that. Russia is the champion of the free world that have practically stopped Western neocolonialism and US global dominance! Together with China they are creators of the multi-polar world. Dollar will collapse no doubt about that …The only question is how much it will collapse. While you are typical retarded Ukrainian
Not as great as Iran who doesn’t have nukes but has balls to bomb NATO bases. …the only question is how long can you take it being a beggar, until others collapse to be as poor as you. Because that’s the only hope for loosers, others to lose :))
Few missiles on US military base is face saving retaliation for the assassination of their most important top general they had is proof of “balls” !?!
It is equivalent of killing of Russian gen Shoigu and would need only declaration of war as appropriate Iranian answer ! You filthy Ukrainian BEGGaR call Russia poor ha, ha, ha,ha,ha,ha!! Go kill your self you Ukrainian filth !
Iran doesn’t have nukes, that makes the difference. Russia without nukes wouldn’t exist by now.
Suddenly Iran with that old SSSR missile know how, bought from N. Korea, is presented as ultimate power ?! You can tell those children stories, to ignorant dupes like yourself ! Your Iran, or even China would be nuked long time ago, without Russian nuclear power dominance! Go away don’t waste my time!
LOL. Iran will never be nucked because the radiations would hit Israel, Turkey and all the American bases and commercial ships from the region. Also the oil could become radioactive too. And I could continue destroying your childish arguments but my time can’t be wasted. I have to take on smarter people.
Yeah, sure Ukrainian beggar. Go earn your Soros wages! :) Go show everybody how incredibly d u m b you can be ! Specially if talking about “radioactive oil” and your i d i o t i c radiation theory… Concerning the fact that thousands of US and “allay” soldiers contracted cancers and similar illnesses during “Desert Storm” (and later) from use of “depleted uranium” ammunition against Iraqi, Yugoslav tanks. US army never accepted the fact that depleted uranium is main reason why so many soldiers got ill. They have never received single penny of compensation from US army! While you talk about “american bases and commercial ships ” you stupid Ukrainian c u n t !
I heard a thin foil could protect you from 5G radiations and losing your virginity.
Nothing can protect Ukrainian beggars from misery apparently. Not even licking US and NATO a r s e. That’s why 20 million have escaped from your “prosperous” country Ukraine.
Ukraine is the living prove that Russia can be balkanized at any time :)) nightmares!
“Germany would NEVER put Ukrainian interests above their own…”
o come on dude……. you know very well that germany is a occupied state since 1945……. THEY have no OWN INTERESTS……….they are ordered.period.
Again, unlikely. Europe needs gas and the North Sea and Scandinavian fields are slowing in production. Algeria is a source, as is Azerbaijan but for cost and transportation service, it’s hard to beat Russian gas prices. And the volume of reserves are great, so there is also stability of supply. In the long run, a year or two, or five from conflict, NS and NS2 are both back to running at full capacity. Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and others need the gas. Cost+volume+transportation efficiency+stable reserves=no other better source, not even close.
This must be why Tommy calls NS2 the “dictatorship gas pipe”.
Well Tommy’s a little confused as he calls a fart a pipeline.
Wanna bet NS2 will never work? :)
Same like North Stream 1, South Stream, Friendship 1-2…? Oh wait, they do…
All the German companies that had to install under water machines pulled out. Without those, it will be just an empty pipe.
Disney called, they want you back… North Stream 2 will be up and running this year, and you cant do anything about it, same story as it was with North Stream 1 and South Stream. I would panic too, Ukropisstan will starve pretty soon. You wanted it you will have it… But dont worry, Poletards and Baltic nazis will sell you U.S. LNG for 5 times the price. With some more IMF loans and GMO plantations it will be a bargain…🤭
You should learn a bit how a gas pipe works. It’s not a simple pipe, it needs plenty of installations and maintenance. Joking. I know you can’t learn.
I know how it works alt account bacon. You are simply in denial of the past, as you are if the present. Sorry to dissapoint you but no glorious banderistan or Greater Israel Project anytime soon. Meanwhile EU, China and the U.S. are buying Russian gas and oil like there is no tomorrow, profits are up by 30%, oy vey…
Hahaha, maybe for the jewish elite, not the Russian peasants.
Ukronazi peasants*
First gas by the end of summer. $100 bet?
Sounds like a deal! On paypal.
OK! I think I still have a PayPal account and if not, I’ll set one up. I’ll look for you on September 20th, or before, if the gas flows sooner.
I’m going to donate them to SouthFront. This was too easy.
Good Luck. You do know that it’s April, 95% of the pipe is already laid, and a second far larger pipelaying ship just started work?
Yeah, without underwater installations it’s just an empty pipe. All the 16 German companies that had to build that installations pulled out from the project this year. The pipe is not just a pipe, it’s a complex project. But some people read only titles,not the articles, same for those who believe ‘rare earth minerals’ are rare.
bacon fat believes astrology scientific and LGBT /CIA fortune teller–dull wit bacon stupid. NATO impotent….trade between eu and Russia w positive balance of trade for Russia increased each year in past decade
Makes little difference anyway once that pipeline is completed Russia job is done and then they can sue Germany for billions of dollars for breach of contract, so its a win win for Russia no matter which way it goes.
I don’t think Russia seeks confrontation with Germany over something that US is responsible of…. It is the gas that brings only profits to Germany and EU in general. That German industry needs badly and that all German industrial’s support as project. If stopped, it will be blocked only for limited period of time. NS-2 will function sooner or later
in 1st quarter 2021 Germany purchased double the amount of gas from Russia than in 2020
To start war with Russia to stop NS2 pipeline between Russia and Germany? Of course it is an Ukraine motivation :))) lol
That’s my opinion.
Im not surprised :)
Notion that going to war against Russia – and suffer potentiality colossal economical, human losses by direct fighting, suffer potentially economical disaster if Russia stop supplying gas, electricity etc., to potentially loose even more territory, potentially to brake up country to pieces – and still be in a favorable position for negotiating gas prices with Russia? That couldn’t have come from a sane mind.. But im sure as hell it is not Ukraine “motivation”..
Nobody is threatening Russia with war. Russian government screams war because the economic situation is shitty. No matter what will happen in Ukraine, Putin will proclaim victory over Arctic and Polar Bears.
bacon live in gypsy ukrop ghetto Russian economy contracted less than any EU economy 2020—IMF predicts 3.2% growth 2021; Russian govt, 4%….bacon fat envious—lives in decayed US colony
bacon fat confused by jens dildo & LSD
Go back to yurta, euromongol.
We said America is military behind all Ukraine efforts to get Crimea back to Nato, and Donbass back to the Ukraine Corporation Burisma’s legal influence. We always back our Allies……….LOL. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d0f13eb3078f5f034e550b5f0d6f8289f2da2952145ff6a631c0c028bf892186.jpg
You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies…
Strelkov is right about the Kremlin. Donbass and everything all the way to at least Kharkov should’ve been liberated in 2014.
But Putin represents the pro-Ziocorporate business Russian Jewligarchy, which has seen a far greater transfer of wealth under Putin that the general Russian population has, very well. Thus, you’ve got Putin as the flag bearer of Turkstream and Nordstream 2 to sell cheap gas to EU terrorist Ziocorporate globalists with all the geopolitical implications that entails including not upsetting too much the Zioterrorist plans in places like Venezuela, Syria, and Russia’s own lands in that farcical construct called “Ukraine”.
Russia today operates in the financial/trade schemes set up by the Ziocorporate terrorists at the end of WW2, and now US missiles are at stone throw distance from Russian land in Crimea and Kaliningrad and US strategic bombers now fly freely along Russian borders in Ukraine, so not taking Kiev back has been a major strategic fuckup, however they want to justify it. This geostrategy needs a major revision and Ukraine needs to be completely liberated.
I agree with you that Donbass upto Kharkov should have been liberated in 2014. In fact the Ukranazi coup regime should and could have been eliminated in 2014. But Putin didn’t even allow the Donbass armies to liberate Slovyansk (where the Donbass militia had fought a heroic and suicidal rearguard action to allow the main force to withdraw) and Mariupol. You’d almost think Putin wanted a weak Donbass which would have to obey his orders, but that couldn’t be, right?
Right?
These guys can’t wait to join. They keep flying in. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/e434d4ff83a266b3ee76fbab650db4be200278fb5c34cd695634b0e8ed54d4b7.jpg
great band
“The Ukrainian military thought is based on the core ideas of deoccupation of the Eastern regions and taking control, in its further advance, over a good part of Russian territory.” If this were true it would be beyond madness, actually this kind of delusions more than anything else are of the Nazis, who keep Ukraine under blackmail, are seven years that circulate these speeches, in the meantime Ukraine is increasingly ruined while the Russia is always bigger and increasingly strong. The ukrainian leaders are preparing escape plans, while the conscripts will theirself give to the stain, the renentants of the lever will decide the fate of this hypothetical war before it starts.
Today a war would be disastrous for Ukraine. Why? Mostly because Russia’s military actions vis-à-vis Ukraine would not be limited this time around by any considerations or any objections of its European and American partners as they were in 2014. To put it bluntly; Russia has no such partners in Europe or America to appease today.
Ukropnazis will cry and rage 🤗
Not even Tommy’s advizes and logiks can save UA in this case.
Putin is bipolar and corrupt and will do nothing. Russia with barely 140 million diverse population, half of which wants to opt out of a dying Russia is hardly a military power. Even the USSR was soundly defeated by Pakistan and CIA. Russia is no match for US let alone the armed might of the west. NATO will teach Russia a lesson soon.
Fantasy, it’s on Russia’s front doorstep, (holds all the power-play) Nato is a weak military alliance and the U.S. has only it’s navy having any major advantage over the equivalent service of Russia, which is of no use in the coming conflict. The U.S. is no match against the Russians on the ground and has no air superiority in the air. This is a clear win for the Russians when it kicks-off.
CIA pays better than SBU—do u receive shekels from both?
Strelkov considers politics lead by a military perspective, rather than military lead by a political perspective.
I don’t say he’s necessarily wrong, but definitely he’s looking from a known inappropriate position. Nevertheless, his opinion is probably vastly more informed than the majority of people and should be taken seriously.
I maintain an anti-war position.
Alexander Mercouris at the Duran argues there wont be any big conflict, as Kiev understands it will be soundly crushed. It could be some feeble attempt to get Russia to react so as to put pressure to get Nord Stream 2 cancelled
i doubt it, they have been preparing and amassing alot lately, too much to simply stand down, this is probably ww3
There are many countries interested in a war Ukraine vs Russia ( Baltics, Poland ,GB) beside Canada, Turkey, USA….others like Germany, France and Italy are not interested since it would harm their economies and desestabilize Europe….Russian armed forces already have a roadmap in case that Ukraine army try to advance and retake Donetsk capital…
Roadmap must contain Zitomir.
Kiev too…
Mariupol as well,its Nazi occupied at the moment.
I hope that map leads to the Dnieper river.
Alexander Mercouris of the Duran has been offering some interesting perspectives on the crisis since its beginnings a week ago.

Mercouris has some wisdom, to be sure, but he is often naive about Donbass.
3 hypersonic cruise missiles could end the war before it starts. Rada, SBU, and the local CIA shop are terrorists organizations…
Just two, CIA cohabits with SBU.

Combat handle Igor Strelkov (Strelkov=”of the shooters”), real name Igor Ghirkin Гиркин. No official connection to the Russian Federation, although BBC lies and says he’s a “colonel in the FSB”. He should be lauded most of all for his military leadership of the Donbass Council Republics’ militias in the heated and existential battles of 2014. Interesting for his personal position as a Great Russian nationalist. He once said in an interview that he admires Josef Stalin because Stalin put an end to communism in Russia. Alexander Borodai, former Prime Minister of the Donetsk People’s Republic, has said he’s psychologically unfit.
Hi, Bill! Haven’t seen you since Google Plus closed down.
why would person who is saying “Stalin put an end to communism in Russia” be psychologically unfit?!? ;-))))
“The longer the conflict drags on, the more the nationalist regime that came to power in Ukraine strengthens.”
I have been saying this over and over since 2014. The Ukranazis are the only beneficiaries of Putinist regime “restraint”. They are far stronger in Ukranazistan now, the Zelensky cabal are their puppets, and their military is much better armed than they were in 2014. Apart from Azov now being a part of the Ukranazi military and being able to call on its resources.
“…the USA now will not fight for Ukraine with 99% probability.”
Again, some that is obvious to anyone who is not a Putin worshipper desperate to find excuses for Putin’s “restraint ” and the disaster that it brought on the people of the Donbass. To those geniuses, Amerikastan would launch WWIII over Ukranazistan. Only a delusional person would believe that. Or a Ukranazi.
You can downvote this now.
He was really a comic, and he plays the part well I thought the poles were the dumb ones, but now it’s a toss up between them and those in the Ukraine.
TALK ABOUT A PEOPLE PLAYING WITH FIRE, WHO CANNOT PROVIDE FOR IT’S PEOPLES’S DUE TO IT’S HISTORY. tALK ABOUT TOTALLY PROPAGANDIZED ARMY OF FOOLS.

A very sober, rational, non-biased analysis of the situation in the Ukraine. I wonder whether the Kremlin has even fully realized how big of a threat the post-Maidan Ukraine poses for Russia. It’s hard to say they didn’t know what Washington’s plan was from the start, which makes them either dangerously neglectful of Russian national interests, or indicates that within there’s an influential 5th column within the Russian establishment. Even if you read between the lines what Russian officials say you can notice that they still hope the West can be appeased and an understanding be reached with Washington. That won’t happen with Neocons in absolute control, unless Russia demonstrates it means business (the only language they understand).
Russia will either sever the head of the Ukrainian beast or suffer the consequences.
And in the meantime Russia has developed the best military jamming in the world.
What could possibly go wrong?
