Private militaries for Putin’s oligarchs: there are other Prigozhins looking for trouble | Frontline

- “How can you make sure that you still have this asset, but prevent them from doing a Prigozhin?"
Russia has come to ‘depend’ on private militaries like the Wagner Group, whose leaders could lead to more trouble down the line for Putin, says Catherine Philip, diplomatic correspondent for The Times.

i appreciate Philp, but the high liklihood thatis widely stated now by expert military strategists (american and UK former highest officers in existence) as well as some historians, that a cornered Putin like he is now, has the lowest chance of using WMD (nuke) ever, bcuz he cannot benefit from it at all now in Ru's weakened state/status. More importantly the command structure to fire a single nuke is very unlikely possible now due to the command/control system, i.e officers will not likely obey the order, bcuz they know they will be held liable for it by either russians who take power, or internatiional forces who will be entering territory potentially.
Blowing up the dam shows that Putin is willing to do anything he thinks will prevent his defeat in Ukraine, He also truly believes that the West has believed him every time he has done something and then blamed Ukraine, He thinks the West believes that Ukraine bombed the dam, SO, I think he is willing to attack the power plant in some way to cause a radiation leak, and that he can get away with saying it was Ukraine, thats why he would be willing to do that, It will be instead of using a tactical nuke, I think if he does bomb the plant in any way, even without causing a leak , NATO should respond as if he used a battlefield nuke,
Not giving all the weapons Ukraine needs and not allow them to attack Russian soil is like telling a person being bullied to fight back but he cannot move and can only use 1 of his arms. I know NATO doesn't want to escalate the war, but they are not really giving Ukraine much of a fighting chance to beat the Russians.
We need a new Lafayette Escadrille with BYO planes etc!
Uh, Ukraine is slowly taking back all their land.
@@bradleyheights5905 Orc TROLL, then hand that to them too! ):
@@muddobber6863 In a war of attrition vs. Russia, Russia will win 100% of the time - its only a matter of time. Ukraine slowly taking back their land with heavy losses, only pales in comparison to the damage the country has suffered since the beginning of the war. Yes, things look good in Ukraine for the UAF right now. Slava Ukraini. It's a matter of perspective really. Ukrainian advances should be praised, but do not look past the fact that their country is blown to bits and they are losing massive amounts of forces every day.
Russia has already lost the war, really. Once they lost Kharkiv and Kherson, that was the end. Their currency has collapsed, there was an attempted coup, and all the top generals in russia are now missing. Not a good future for russia.....very ominious indeed.
I had an Ukrainian colleague in UK 2014. She was crying and asking why the world is watching and not interfering ? Shame...
Someone needs to find Generals Surrenderin' and Gerasimov. The world is watching, what has happened to them?!
😢
Nukes & that Putin acts like he could use them - Thats WHY
add on top the MILLIONS of Brits and French that died in 2 world wars fighing for european freedom, its countries like Italy/Germany/Austria that should be taking the lead, they have blood debts to pay
I don't think the world was watching.
Most of the world is watching and is heartbroken about what has happened to Ukraine. It's a terrible shame that a narcissistic dictator can get away with this. I sincerely wish that Ukraine had more help in the early stages. My heart hurts for all of the beautiful Ukrainian people. I pray daily for this to end.
@@hardywatkins7737yes they were and didn't care. Ukraine should have never given up it's nukes.
Let's stop using the word "annexed" and refer to it as illegally occupied. This refers to ANY territory that was internationally recognized as sovereign territory of Ukraine in 2013. Annexed implies something to be a part of another country. If I simply declare that your home is now my property, does that give me any rights to it at all???
We the French should send our troops to the frontier between Ukraine and Belarus. Or to Armenia. Or to Moldova. Instead of keeping them in Africa pursuing the dream of our lost empire. Instead of telling others in Europe what to do and think while doing nothing. We're useless.
you can volunteer right away - why are you waiting?
It is not about sending troops. France's contribution and support is rightly diplomatic and financial.
_Something important to know, for all who are interested in history and/or support Ukraine:_
_Rus' ought not to be confused with modern “Russia”, which derives its name from the Rus' but historically is a completely different state, which almost all its existence was at war with the Rus'._
_Just like the Holy Roman Empire was actually Germany, “Russia” is actually Muscovy, despite their best attempts to convince everybody otherwise._
_Its name “Russia" received only in the 18th century, when Peter I simply changed Muscovy’s name into the “All Russian Empire” (Russia originates from Rosia, name used by the Greek Orthodox Clergy in regards to Rus')_
_Under the reign of Cathrine II Muscovites where even punished for continuing to identify as Muscovites, and were forced to call themselves Russian._
_Lands that Russia (Muscovy) claims were part of the original Rus', but actually weren't, are Novgorod, Suzdal, and Ryazan, since in historical texts of XI-XII centuries they are mentioned as separate entities from Rus'. They can be considered parts of extended Rus', although their culture was distinct from main Rus'._
_In 1493, Muscovite duke Ivan III appointed himself to be the Great Ruler of All Rus'. No other kings acknowledged that. From that point on Muscovy started to make false claims on Rus' ownership._
_“Russia” is an offshoot of Ukraine and not the other way round, despite what Soviet and Russian (Muscovite) historians have been trying to say for years. A Slavicised Finnic, then later, Mongolized offshoot. Kyiv was a developed cultured capital when Moscow was just another swamp village._
_Germany used to call itself the Holy Roman Empire, that didn’t mean they became the Romans, and all of a sudden had a right to claim whole of Italy and its history, but yet, that’s exactly what Russia (Muscovy) did in regards to Rus'-Ukraine, which is a horrible injustice!_
Thanks
Putinstan, er, Russia is not a state in the ordinary sense of the word. It's a criminal organization headed by the chief criminal -- Tsar Vlade the War Criminal.
Well done! Absolutely true and correct.
True!
And don't forget that the region, the "Russian motherland" or "state territory", was founded by Vikings. Marketplaces/towns like Novgorod weren't Russian but managed by Vikings (the Varagian tribe) until those Slavic tribes took over these towns by force. Kiiv and the empire it controlled existed hundreds of years before any "Russians" left the woods.
True and well said. "Russia is an offshoot of Ukraine and not the other way round".
As a Russian speaker, The more I peruse the debates on both sides the clearer it is: On the Ukranian side there are 100's of millions of people exchanging opinions and ideas, throughout Europe and the US. On the Russian side there is a few million stuck in a nationalistic prism, with little means to freely express their real feelings, and another few million who simply arent allowed to offer up ideas by default. Russian society simply doesnt have a voice and therefore a means to properly transfer ideas and information from the bottom to the top. This is clearly illustrated by Wagners attempted Coup and the support they had from Russian civilians (the idea that a population in a Russian city would openly cheer an attack on the kremlin??). The truth is that Russia has such a tiny amount of expertise and creativity to fall back on now, because Putin has lost the domestic argument for the war. But also a tiny (and rapidly shrinking) economy and to back it up.
Please please please give them air support and try to finish this war. Save some lives for the love of God
"The Ukraianians are the best army in the world right now. Victory to Ukraine ❤💙💛""
Not only is it absurd to allow Russia sanctuary it's also a recipe for Ukraine losing the war. Indeed, allowing sanctuary is a recipe for losing a war even when the enemy is militarily inferior. Recall America's experience in Vietnam where the enemy enjoyed sanctuary in Laos, Cambodia and select areas of Vietnam. Recall America's experience in Afghanistan where the enemy enjoyed sanctuary in Pakistan. In both cases the US lost despite its overwhelming superiority.
Russia's highest ranking Generals are _missing._ That's not a good sign.
The US won in Afghanistan. Ended ISIL, demilitarized bin Laden, and said bye bye to Al Queda. US and GB did a great job in Afghanistan, too bad russia lost so badly in Afghanistan in the 1980's. The russian army was so mad, they shot the russian parliament with a tank!
You understand that Ukraine's inbound supply lines are in sanctuary, right?
No one seems to remember that the Kherson attack was started well before the Karkiv attack. Everyone thought that the Kherson attack was a distraction for Kharkiv, which is was to some extent, but at the same time it was still a serious attack that ultimately wore out the Russians in Kherson and then forced them to retreat. I expect we will see that repeat over the summer.
Russia's economy is smaller than Italy's and their currency has basically collapsed over the last year. All Ukraine needs to do is keep russia bogged down, and they'll collapse just like they did in Kharkiv and Kherson.
@@dpelpalgdp smaller than the city of New York, repeat City, not state😮
@@rositasultana3958 They're toast. All Ukraine needs to do is bog them down long term.
@@dpelpal their currency is in the toilet, with all restrictions imposed by their national bank. NATO and EU are more in sync than ever. Let’s keep donating and helping them however we can, even only for the high morale.
Slava Ukraini!
Thank you for the interview #Journalists
Great intervew, thank you Kate:)
Catherine Philip is one very impressive lady.
Brave lady
Why is The Times always talking to points everyone else exhausted days ago.
I was amused by Catherine's ability to find a diplomatic answer when asked (at 20:00) about comments made by General Sheriff a day or so ago.
She said, "Umm, I mean... [laughs] Sheriff is a hawk. I will say that. Um, he's... He's pretty extreme."
I agree. When I watched that interview with Sheriff I thought he sounded exactly like Peter Sellers in 'Dr. Strangelove'.
Gratifying to hear that Western armored vehicles saved Ukrainian lives. That's what they are for. There is no better use for them than serving this purpose, in Ukrainian hands. I hope my country gives them more.
It’ll be a slow grind. They just have to starve the Russians in the trenches from both food and ammunitions. Once that happens, and they break open a few lanes then the dam of Russian defense will bust open. I don’t understand how people are comparing the Kherson and Kharkov gains which were surprise tactical gains to this offensive which they were expected and well prepared for.
Russia has already lost the war at this point. Now their two top generals are missing, and the ruble is collapsing in value. Not a good sign for russia, not a good sign at all.
@@dpelpal Time certainly is not on their side. Putin has destroyed Russia.
Well done interview, thank you.✨💙
World needs these sociopaths to turn on each other
25 percent of soldiers aged 20-25 are dead. Neither Ukraine nor Russia can "win" this. What to do.
Russian can withdraw its forces back inside its 1991 borders. That’s what to do.
If the West is serious about helping Ukraine 🇺🇦, give them F-16s
Give the second most corrupt state in Europe some aircraft they can't fly, have no support for and are too dirt poor to afford? That is like urinating into the wind. Your bladder feels better but now your legs are wet.
From putin screaming _"Kyiv in threee Dayyyyyys!"_ to....All the top Generals in russia being MIA.🤣
It's just absurd that nobody knows where they are. Gerasimov is the top commander...Free the Kremlin Two!😪
According to Larry Johnson's sources, western intelligence really thought that Prigozhin was their asset and were devastated by the way it all ended concluding it was a feint and "maskerada"
So if they got that wrong they are probably also wrong about the Generals.
Meanwhile the Wagner "insurrectionists" are in Belarus and given the speed of their Moscow adventure they + the Belorussian and Russian troops there could easily take Kiev in three dayyys.
yes - that arctic issue should not get out of sight!
Thank you for approaching that!
What do your dreary parade of "Ukraine can't win" old men have to say about what this excellent journalist is reporting?
NATO is supporting a limited war approach, presumably not wishing to provoke a nuclear attack from Putin. This philosophy is articulated by General Lord Dannatt.
However it has allowed the Russian Army to dig in and create defence in depth.within eastern Ukraine.
But the Russian s need to make progress which is the basis of their " special military operation " , so let them try, and advance into Ukrainian bayonets.
Wagner revolted because the corporation known as "Wagner Group" wasn't getting paid by either Kremlin directly or MOD. Payment was made, and convoy changed direction. This was not really different from a union "job wobble" where work is stopped and the crews march to the corporate office to demand payment...or else!
The corruption and thieving of money is staggering, but it's the Russian way of life.
SLAVA UKRAINI.
Very good insights provided by Ms Philip however our host failed to ask about the most serious regional or global threat that is the destruction of the nuclear power plants!
They ask other people in other interviews.
Ruzzia is fragile... brittle.
The top two Generals in the country are freakin' MISSING. Where are they?
Glory to Ukraine !!!
Thanks for your insightful narrative
Nobody has yet turned on Putin or Prigozhin, or the Shoigu and Gerasimov alternative comedy duo. When the corridors of the Kremlin palaces start to require the presence of red carpets, and wet and dry carpet cleaners, we shall know it, and we probably have to learn a whole new slew of Russian names and their ranks and positions as they shuffle in to fill the vacuum that the old guard's disappearance has caused. Wagner is live and kicking, and will be around longer that some of the other names.
The US tried to fight a wars in Korea, Viet Nam, and Afghanistan with its hands tied behind its back. We all know how those turned out.
She could only have seen a minute snippet of what is going on in this offensive, she sounding like they can’t win. But they are. 😄. ✌🏻🇬🇧🇺🇦🇺🇸✌🏻
Ukraine has already won the war. Russia has no chance at this point. In addition, their top Generals are both "missing in action" right now. Russia is doomed
Saying it is hard, and air support is needed, is not saying they can't win.
It's saying NATO is STOPPING them from winning easily, and killing them and NAT'Os own materiel.
Yeah all MRAP variants are life savers (MAXX PRO, RG31, etc) but I hated every MCP I conducted in them. And they are also horrific at off-roading, they are basically built for hardball, to take an IED and ensure everyone survives.
Does anyone know where the russian generals are?!
@@dpelpal imo - house arrest or at work (like office style house arrest with someone watching them and their families 24/7). the real so-what will be the nuclear reactor down south - as that is becoming more and more likely as the southern front spirals. It would be in the best interest of western and coup players to avoid that spiraling - cutting off MoD exfil to Crimea and add handing the forces who are occupying and mining the site large bags of sweaty cash plus passports to any where in the world.
Times Radio....ThanksMuch!=
This woman is a journalist, a reporter. She should stick to reporting what HAS happened rather than speculating what MIGHT happen in an subject she has limited expertise and limited detail knowledge. (IOW she doesn't have the military knowledge or expertise to comment on what MIGHT happen in Ukraine.)
All the weapons Ukraine needs should be supplied to them. They need to rid their lands of the invading Russians.
How exactly did Hodorkovsky enrich himself "through" Putin? Not every rich man(or woman) in Russia, owes his fortunes to Putin. Especially when we're talking about the early 2000s.
Unless that lady has some information that previously wasn't in the public eye, she really needs to waigh her words more carefully.
Knordokovsky got rich through Yeltsin's theft and distribution of the USSR's assets, which continued to be enabled by Putin, until Khordokovsky started agitating to improve democracy in 2001.
If you know anything about Russian politics and economy in the period from 1989 onwards, you will know that virtually EVERY oligarch in Russia got their wealth by taking over soviet companies or winning government contracts. Putin has his hand on every one of these. There is a reason he is the richest man in the world, he took a small percentage of every company he handed out. I have first hand knowledge of literally dozens of companies that most westerners would have some knowledge of, that Putin has hidden ownership. Catherine's analysis is 100% spot on.
Next time can we please interview someone that actually makes sense- Bless her… she tried 😊
Careful in the Arctic. A journalist observing activities in the Arctic in a time like this seems like a recipe for becoming an international hostage used for political bargaining. Work from home!
If the Ukrainians break the Russian defense lines, things can turn quite quickly. A kilometer now, might correspond to many more tomorrow.
Bring out the lazar gun. They have made them powered by a portable generator (15 kw). Cost a buck a shot instead of a million bucks. America please...DO IT NOW! Make thousands of them and send to Ukrain, cheaper than jets and they are so accurate that they can pick out a portion of a small drone and hit it right there, while moving. The only cost is elecrity (or fuel) and maintenance.
I don't understand why there is so little talk of the possibility that Putin will willingly welcome Prigozhin back into the fold if Wargner joins a Rusian offendensive on Kiev from Belarus - Prigozhin will be very happpy to oblige for the right price ! It all seems obvious to me - and is the reason Putin let Prigozhin off the hook and establish himself, together with his troops in Belarus - that was the "deal" given to Lukashenko.
It's laughable to even suggest that Wagner could invade Ukraine. They'd be absolutely slaughtered by artillery and minefields the second they crossed the border. They wouldn't even consider it, nor would any army that has any instinct for self preservation lol
There is literally zero chance of an offensive coming from Belarus direction. The Ukraine Belarus border is a natural barrier of swamps and forests. There is a very good reason historically why the border is where it is. Wagner or no Wagner, there is no serious attack coming from this vector. There might be limited skirmishes along the border, but these are simply for fixing Ukrainian troops in that direction.
@@maccaberry1041 Yet in Feburary 2022 that exactly what happened, swamps and all. The main reason there may not be an attack on Kiev now or soon is because Ukraine is on high alert, but i do find this move of wagner to Belarus EXTREMELY suspicious
Wagner's relocation into Belarus is a very dangerous development. They could easily launch a second attack of Kiev which would draw Ukrainian forces from the eastern and southern fronts where the counter-offensive is just starting. This entire "rebellion" may have been an elaborate ruse to misdirect and confuse Ukrainian military leaders and cause a delay in the counter-offensive.
Haha, theyre gonna take "Kyiv in threeeee dayyyys!" 🤣🤣🤣
Wake up already. What part of a ruse involves Putin's jet fleeing Moscow as Prigozhin closes in? This was an enormous embarrassment for all Russian elites. Not to mention that at the start of the war the Russian army attacked through Belarus (among other directions) and how did that go? The Kiev attack was one of the biggest military disasters of the 21st century.
I heard the majority of ordinary Belorussian folk would support Ukraine - including most of their military. Lukashenko would have gone, like Ukraine's Yanukovych, but for Putin's support (FSA etc) Both countries citizens wished to lean Westwards - and Putin could not have ordinary people showing up his corrupt Kleptocracy any more. Hence, 2014/2022.
@@willdon.1279 absolutely, that's another factor too. Lukashenko is doing everything in his power to wriggle out of committing to the war further than he already has. He may sound like an idiot, but he's a survivor.
From what Prigozhin said about the reasons for the invasion, I don't think he really wants to fight Ukraine. It is possible that "we will go back" etc was just to calm the waters with Putler.
There will be plenty of better paid work for the Wagners than Ukraine.
Excellent video.
for the sake of the soldiers on both sides, let's encourage negotiation
A very slow advance, a bit like you trying to deliver a story .
Tactical or ICBM...a Nuke is a Nuke...period...
Putin using the lame excuse that "The USA set a precedent for the use of nukes in 45'." As if that gives him the go ahead to use them now. The use of nukes by the USA in 45 was horrific. A deperate method to defeat the Japanese who seemingly were all willing to fight to the death until nobody was left alive. I think the Americans learned that using nukes is shameful and is not to be repeated, whereas Russia has not and that makes them more dangerous than America as far as using nukes goes.
Damn right the AFU shouldn't be underestimated. This is a very smart, imaginative and powerful force and is absolutely one of the most powerful in the world at this time. Just take a look at some of the videos of the AFU assaulting the orc positions. The AFU should have had aviation last year, instead they hardly have air defense. It is shameful.
where does this always come from, that Prigozhin "turned on Putin"?
Prigozhin sat in Ukraine without follow-up order for his "business".
His "march for justice" was a promotion campaign for new orders, ammo, resources and cash.
As a side effect he wanted to benefit from taking on two unpopular and unsuccessful top military leaders.
What made Putin shaken is, that he realized, that he cannot trust his real regular army and that it is fractioned.
Prigozhin however he thinks he can calculate and control ("I financed him and hope he hasn't stolen anything...").
We don't know how much command structures of Wagner are oriented towards Prigozhin and depend on him.
If there is and remained significant loyalty, Prigozhin remains and got even more one of Putin's most important assets - not at least with the diverse hybrid warfare campaigns out of St.Petersburg. Those could turn against Putin quicker, easier and even more effective than an army.
So - yes - they might now be arch enemies.
But as we know from Mafiosi such can work well together for common evil goals.
Maybe other countries need to purge our politicians
Quick question, if the whole country went to war is there any civilian spots?
Thing is F16 needs much training on as no use handing out F16 when they do not know how the jet works ..Plus u dont want enemy getting their hands on Wests best fighter jet at all . Much shall have been stolen also by Russians as well as Ukraine has some Russian gear taken from them ..But F16s are up to date Jets which Ukraine just would need many months of training on as they have more so technology to know about within the workings .
Thanks for your input, Boris. How is your new boss in St Petersburg treating you?
It's not the west's best fighter Jet, everyone is upgrading to F35s now and Ukraine apparently ain't getting those. Also, fighter jets have many similaritys, so a Ukrainian pilot used to flying MIGs isn't going to find it 'too' hard to adjust to an F16, but they do need to adjust to the way they fly and learn some new systems. Apparently F16s are quite easy to fly.
7:36 Those vehicles with an added lazar gun would be a life saver with a light sabre.
The more characters in the Russian circus the better it will be for Ukraine and the West.
They should hold off until they get the aircraft. The russian defense won't change. The russians can just continue living in the trenches while the Ukrainians can continue playing cat & mouse until they get the F-16's.
“ we suppose”? Ffs
well the Russians are already performing horribly, yep the supposed 2nd strongest army in the world Russia turned out to be the Saddam Hussein Iraqi army of the 80s. Very poor handling despite having a much larger air force than the Ukrs should have achieved air superiority in the entire war but of course it did not due to poor training of its pilots, poor clunky Soviet style doctrine. which emphasizes command and control over Flexibility. its teling that no one has air superiority over the battlefield due to the abundant SAMs, the incompetency of the Russian air force and the Ukrs air force does not have enough planes to achieve air superiority. and yah this is hampering the Ukrainian offensive very nuch.
“Ehm, erm….the bombed erm ehm…Dam…..”
The Dam doesn’t have a name?
This report is painful to be honest. Very amateur.
I think we all know which dam she was talking about. Is it really important that she name it? I forget how many times i've heard the name of that dam but heck, i can't remember the name either. - But the name isn't important.
@@hardywatkins7737 it’s about delivery in a confident and informative manner. It’s about authority of delivery. Not a stuttering student-like presentation
Better warn her that the North Pole doesn't have any land. Just Artic ice.
NATO say use a Combined Arms Offensive , but refuse to provide Ukraine with one of the Arms , Air Support F16s .
Glad someone else noticed. I suppose they do have some jets but they need also an edge. F16s.
Oh, if Kate Chabot only knew how many times I say "Kate Chabot" with an exaggerated British accent while cooking breakfast in my kitchen. You know who does know? My very annoyed family.
her husband is French so perhaps you should try a different accent next time.
Ha! I've been sitting here asking myself, is it Shibo? Shebo? Shebeau? - Kind of wondering what her name actually is. So it's Chabot is it? I never would have guessed. Too bad for your family huh? lol
Limiting Ukraines action by NATO echoes the “tied hands” that stopped the US from winning in Vietnam. (Although I think the US backed the wrong side - look at current issues)
A whole bunch of private Russian armies....geez just wait for the turf wars in good old mama Russia! Rasputin was a rookie. By the bye you don't think Vladimir and Rasputin are related do you? Anything is possible.
Yet another example of why Russia, while still a dictatorship, should be no where near nuclear power or weapons. Dictatorships are inherently unstable and often don’t transfer power easily (many dictators won’t even discuss the topic of a successor, and Russia has proved it is sloppy and immature with their nuclear weapons, rattling them over every bit of nonsense (McDonalds pulling out is….act of war! (Not)).
Stop saying "y'know". Professionalism, c'mon, standards!
We needed Hilary Clinton…Putin would have been long gone! She would have started with a US enforced no-fly zones over western Ukraine and Kyiv and expand it eastward…
What is this interviewer's name? It sounds like she says "Me Kate Chibo"

We need a new Lafayette Escadrille with BYO planes etc!
YAWWWWWWWWNNNNN
Formulate a sentence much?
Who is this person did she just wake up, she appears to need a large coffee?
My assessment is that a) Putin has been kies about the possibilities of Russia's 'armed forces nu the top military staff from the start, b) as he doesn't use the internet het never gets to independent data or news coverage, and c) regardless of how bad Putin is, ESPECIALLY with regards to more or less unchecked and impulsive usage of nuclear weapons, we - the Free World - may turn out to be a lot worse off with any possible predator successor of his
Why not send a list of questions to your guests to prevent the kind of waffling you get from Katherine.
She might benefit from some kind of Mendelian programming where she receives a small electric zap every time she says "you know" "I think" "I mean" etc
An embarrassing performance.
I think your expectations are too high. She's just trying to answer the questions put to her. I did notice her say at one point "I think" so as to differentiate from claiming to know and credit to her for that. There is opinion and there is fact and she's smart enough to know when her opinion or thoughts are just that.
I thought the Ukrainians had pilots, so what are they flying?
Mig 29s, SU 24, 25 and 27. Soviet stuff.
Whats wrong with this princess. She behaves as being wronged there was no spring offensive. And advance to slow to her liking. Behaving like she's a battle hardend general. And whats with her getup? Did she purposly had a make-up artist for looking like that. Its embarrising how she actually mocks ukrain forces
Hard to hear you sit and laugh when these truly horrible events are taking place. Please show some respect...
I'm surprised the reporter doesn't have a good perspective of the time needed to prepare the stage for Kherson.
William Spaniel recalled recently that after the Normandy landing at the start of June. It took the allies >2 months (August) before they could break through the 2nd and 3rd layers of the German front lives.
The Russians are very well dug in; their trench networks are mapped, so all can see their extent.
If the Ukrainians can grind down the Russian logistics (in the rear,) the efforts will provide no glorious headlines, no exciting videos, but it will undermine Russian effectiveness much more strongly than any frontal assaults.
Twenty Four Minutes and Fifty Four Seconds Of Waffle!

He nagged his husband Lukashenko into dealing with General Household Waste but the real threat he has been terrified of for 20 years is General Election.
Another supposed expert 😂😂😂 Maybe we should ask these experts about the Covid farce 😂
War is tough on soldiers and civilians. Progress is mostly slow as WW I and WW II showed. Hopefully, Ukraine will retake their territory. The West seems to be doing all they can to help Ukraine.
now the west is starting to do a ton: BUT that was slow coming and there was massive hesitation & apparent timidity in the commnications approach toward RU both before the invasion and after. So when i see comments like this and 'hopefully ukr will retake', i realize ppl like u simply lack any sensibility re history, strategy and decisions. This is a war of civilization vs anticivilization, and that means the west has no option but to maximally make sure Ukr prevails. THAT could mean a military intervention ultimately! Do u really not grasp this, bcuz your comments make you sound like u have no clue as to how grave this situation is and what's actually at stake. Watch some Silicon Curtain vid's and watch some interviews by various journo's with Breedlove, and other american as well as UK military officers.
Starlin made these mistakes before ww2 ,glad to see putin doing it make them even weeker if possible ,nato needs to supply f16 and long range missiles now while stuttering in Moscow
