I'm seeing a couple articles quoting Zelensky requesting a international monitoring mission to the Kakhovka dam: https://www.yahoo.com/now/russia-mined-kakhovka-dam-ready-174400512.html quote:According to the president, Ukrainian employees of the Kakhovka HEPP were driven out, placing the facility under complete Russian control. Zelenskyy urged the international community to send a monitoring mission to the plant in order to ensure its safe operation. Does anyone know what Zelensky actually said regarding this? I can't find it in his Telegram post edit: ty Flavahbeast fucked around with this message at 01:18 on Oct 21, 2022 |

spankmeister posted:Which makes me wonder if any or all of Russia'e posturing about blowing up the dam is just to cover their retreat. Like "let us leave without attacking us or we'll blow the dam" kind of situation. One theory I've seen is that they're floating rumors about mining the dam in order to try and make locals evacuate to Crimea or other Russian-held parts of the country

Tomn posted:Not in absolute "This is always the case" terms, but I think it's fair to suggest that incompetent commanders do in fact tend to be the ones doing stupid things that leave their CPs vulnerable, creating a natural selection process against that kind of incompetence at least and encouraging more careful planning and thinking. The first commander to locate their command post outside of artillery range is a coward, the second is prudent

Aside from humanitarian reasons I think Xi would probably like things to wrap up because a long war between Russia and Ukraine has more potential downsides than upsides for China. A further weakened Russia would be more dependent on China, but it would also be more fragile, with the possibility of someone more belligerent or more EU-friendly taking power. There's also the spectre of a nuclear exchange, which would obviously be a real bad time for everyone.

litany of gulps posted:Isn't this playing out exactly as the West would want, though? If NATO gave everything that Ukraine would need to win, the conflict would either escalate or end. NATO doesn't want the conflict to escalate or end. NATO wants the conflict to drag out for as long as it takes to bleed the Russians dry. Walking the tightrope where Russia keeps throwing conventional forces into the meatgrinder, but can't quite justify anything much beyond that, isn't that the best possible outcome for the West? The Ukrainians aren't going to stop fighting, so there will always be just enough weapons to keep the fighting ugly (but not enough to settle things)... Are there weapons other countries could send to Ukraine to end the war without escalating it? Sending those should be a no brainer

enigma74 posted:Yeah, it doesn't seem likely to happen. But other than this unlikely scenario, Xi seems to be wasting his time meeting Zelenskyy, unless it's for internal propaganda purposes. Better for him (and China) to stay out of it completely and continue to buy the cheap Russian oil. Instead, there might be some variation of "Zelenskyy refused our peaceful mediation, therefore it is reasonable for us to supply military drones to Russia". Meeting with Xi makes perfect sense, weapons and ammunition from China could be fundamental for continuing Putin's special military operation and if Xi was irrevocably committed to the success of the invasion he would have started shipping arms a long time ago

Bakhmutivka bridge sure, Ukrainians did it as it makes the logistics of moving in from the eastern part of the town more complicated, slowing the advance. The other bridge, though is on their last supply line into the town, and was reported by Ukrainian media as being blown up by Russian forces (and why would Ukrainians blow up their supplies/retreat route?). wsj guy says there's another route in near Ivanivske that heavy equipment is being moved through https://twitter.com/yarotrof/status/1631602504021540865 https://twitter.com/yarotrof/status/1631633762604793858
