  • “It was incredibly embarrassing for the Kremlin that their young conscripts inside Russia were the ones that were captured.”
    Putin is under pressure from all sides after Ukraine’s Kursk ‘invasion,’ says Tim Marshall, author and former foreign correspondent.

    Volodymyr Zelenskyy has changed from the handsome fresh faced young man, to a grown up veteran. He's now a man leading his country in the face of a cruel and unnecessary aggression by the supposed No.1 fearsome army in the world, and his performance has been impressive. The response of the people of Ukraine to the 'mighty Russia' has been 100% impressive. May they prevail, and the rest of Europe better not let Ukraine down. We need Ukraine to beat Putin, and we need them within NATO. I can't wait for the day Ukraine is free from this war - so I can personally go there and thank every person I speak to for having the courage to stand up to Putin. I hope my country, the UK, doesn't make me go there ashamed. God be with Ukraine.

      Zel is leading a country? Since when? IF NATO and US don't help Zel., he will not survive. This is a war against NATO and US and Ukraine is only a proxy army. How embarrassing if the Ukraine is defeated. Putin will be one of the greatest military strategists ever; he would have defeated NATO and US at the same time. There is no "great" exit for NATO or US now. They have to keep suppling Ukraine in this war. The problem is that there are no more men in Ukraine to fight. The average soldier in Ukraine is 45 years young.

    Putin's current embarrassment is nothing compared to what's likely to come next: President Zelensky visiting Ukrainian troops inside Russia! If this happens (and probably it will) the Russian TV propaganda shows would have a meltdown of epic proportions! Such a visit would hugely ramp up the political pressure on Putin to "do something", but in reality there is little that he can do. He'd be caught between a rock and a hard place.

Britain decided the whole world was it's sphere of influence throughout the 18 and 19th Centuries and colonized huge areas in every continent. The Gaelic language was suppresed forcefully after 1803 and only just survived as a spoken language until it resurfaced after the creation of the Republic of Eire.

    As a ploy to draw Russian troops from the Donbas, the move into Kursk was never going to work. Putin may be embarrassed but, ceding land in one area so as to maintain an offensive in another is a standard Russian tactic. The gains in Donbas are the only bright spot Putin can point to and he's unlikely to give them up willingly.

    Ukraine is now being routed in Kursk. It is paying a heavy price and gaining nothing. The incursion didn't cause Russia to shift troops from the east. It weakened Ukraine's forces in the east, allowing Russia to take large swaths of territory that, unlike Kursk, have strategic significance. It was an act of a desperate military. Events after this video's production have made these two look like clowns. The Kursk incursion was a propaganda win in the short term but a strategic failure in the long term.

    eah, Zelenskyy Kursk misadventure ground to a screeching halt and caused staggering Ukrainian losses (as expected Ukrainian troops are completely exposed to Russian air-strikes and drone-strikes outside of defensive positions), but Ukrainians are stuck. Erratic Zelenskyy is obsessed with media hype, his DC handlers are obsessed with Kamala campaign and Syrsky is obsessed with his career (keeping his position even for one more week is more important for him than lives of all Ukrainian soldiers put together). All of them are just reinforcing the failure as they did in Bakhmut, Krinki or a publicly announced failed Zelenskyy offensive in 2023. Meanwhile vital Ukrainian positions at the actual front where the war is decided are crumbling.
