Russo-Ukrainian War 2014-23 and Invasion

[Crazy_Ivan80]

Read some mutterings that the Russian army is insisting the wagners are the ones who ran away leaving their soldiers exposed in the bakmut defeats.

Doesn't matter who's running, as long as they keep running until they're back in Siberia.

Heh, internal strife within the Russian army is positive too of course. Now if they can get to shooting each other...

The counteroffensive yesterday was basically Ukrainian platoons clearing undermanned vatnik trenches in small local attacks.

Russian state media pondering the new missiles and how Ukraine would use them in a counteroffensive. Warning: May cause prolonged priapism in British viewers.

Saw today they've already used them. A Russian base in Luhansk hit; footage shows streaks in the sky and this base was well outside normal Ukrainian missile range.

I suspect this announcement of providing the missiles came some time after Ukraine actually started receiving them. Timed for just when they'd start using them to help throw Russia into a panic of completely rethinking what they thought were safe behind the lines deployments.
Perfect dissaray just before a major counterattack.

Russia is floating a plan to build a village for conservative Americans who want to move to a 'Christian country' and are tired of liberal ideology in the US

Should Canada and the US pay a single trip for those willing to go?  We confiscate their passport first, freeze their assets, no turning back?  Kinda like going to fight for ISIS?

Russia does need volunteers after all.

Oh hells yeah this is a wonderful idea.

Rumors floating around that everyone's favorite potato farmer Lukashenka is seriously ill or even in a coma. Who knows what's true but a dying Belarusian dictator would really spice things up.

Drank some bad tea at Putin's victory parade?

The German military-industrial complex now seems to have ramped up production.  The next German package will be 2.7bn € and contain 30 additional Leopard 1s, 20 additional Marders, 4 additional Iris-T-SLM, 12 Iris-T-SLS, Hundreds of Iris rockets, 15 additional Gepards antiair tanks, 18 RCH 155 howitzers, 200 UAVs, 100 APCs, 100 other transport vehicles...

You have to wonder why it takes more than a year.

I can imagine a scenario where Putin is grooming Shoigu to be the bad boyar responsible for all of the war's failings, and using Prigozhin to make a grassroots case for it.  In a country with no rule of law only calling for an uprising against the head of the family is a coup, other capos are just business.
