You *checks notes* demilitarized Ukraine so hard they now have western tanks, weapons, artillery, and soon fighter jets, while your tatterdemalion "army" will effectively cease to exist as a modern fighting force by the second anniversary of the war, or maybe sooner. Whatever floats your boat, buddy. :lol:

As much as we dog on tankies for huffing the copium it's really embarassing to see your own side do it too. The latest one going around is some rumor about Shoigu declaring open season on Wagner PMC troops and it was the start of another civil war, just totally laughable fantasy.

When it comes to the counteroffensive people need to remember that If you expected this to be a victory parade all the way to crimea, then you're as cooked on cope as the vatniks who reserved tables in Kyiv restaurants for lunch on February 25th

No idea, only posted it because DefMon doesn't usually do vague crypticposting and has historically talked poo poo about people who did. But he has yet to elaborate, so..2

And I doubt anyone can prove it but I would be very shocked if DefMon wasn't a GRU/GRU-affiliated information launderer based on things he's posted about in the past relating to the Kharkiv counteroffensive and Kherson counteroffensive. Occasionally those get exposed on the Russian side.

Everyone's losing.

Ukraine can't bring back the people Russia killed, and even with western aid, it will be a struggle to rebuild their economy after the war, especially since Russia will still be a threat even if fully thrown out.

Russia shat their pants on a global stage and their soft power is nosediving as countries reach out to China or the west. Also their economy is hosed, and their plans to shatter NATO's cohesion backfired.

It's especially unclear at the moment.
Russia's winter offensive is definitely over and only got them a few km² against massive losses, but they're not broken and not giving up. Running low on everything, though.

Ukraine appears to have started their own offensive, but it is being kept very secret how that's working out. Best we can tell they have pushed a bit towards Mariupol, taken back a village or two, and lost some NATO hardware on the way. I get the impression they have held back a large part of their forces so far, so this is presumably just the early stages.

that would be impossible without the permissive action links, which would not be in belarusian hands. that could be worked around given enough time and expertise but luka wouldn't have that time. this is also assuming that there are weapons that would be in an assembled state and ready-loaded onto launch vehicles. just not something that any nuclear power would allow if they had a shred of competence
