  1. 2021: Russian army is the best in the world.

    2022: Russian army is the second-best in the world.

    2023: Russian army is the second-best in Ukraine.

    2024: Russian army is the second-best in Russia.

  2. Uh yeah… no shit. That’s what everyone except Putins allies, plants, or sycophants have been saying for the last 2 years.

  3. Western media received a major boost of copium. Back to September 2022!

  4. Ukraine ia not “invading” russia. It is liberating land that historically belonged to it, while defending a population that has been oppressed by the Nazi regime led by russian putler.

    Stolen from pro-russian reddit users, correcting the names.

  5. Honestly I think this might inspire separatist groups or mutinying military forces to either take advantage of or at the very least learn from Russia’s seeming inability to defend territories outside the frontline.

    It’s also something NATO is surely gonna study, Thunder runs are incredibly effective against Russia’s current doctrine

  6. Imagine, on 24th Feb 2022, someone saying: oh, don’t worry about the Ukrainians. After they defend themselves, they will invade Russia.

  7. The article makes the assumption that m Ukraine will be able to hold their captured territories which is why I find it a bit premature to declare this operation as potential end for the war. They broke through, exposed a weakness in Russian defenses, and impressively invaded Russia which hasn’t been done since WWII. But the next conversation has to be digging into their positions and how many troops to divert to push back against Russians reinforcements.

    Now I find this part of the article interesting

    > offensive. An unnamed advisor to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told the Washington Post: “This will give them the leverage they need for negotiations with Russia—this is what it’s all about.” This dovetails with recent hints by Zelensky that Kyiv was ready to negotiate. In an interview with BBC News in July, he said, “We don’t have to recapture all the territories” by military means. “I think that can also be achieved with the help of diplomacy.”

    I’ll take this with a grain of salt as it depends on an anonymous source but this very well be the purpose of this along with giving a distraction from daily Russian gains and maybe preventing another offensive (not sure). How much further can Ukraine push and if they intend to hold, there’s a trade off between grabbing more land and realistically being able to hold. I think to summarize, I think it’s premature to claim to be making these claims; there’s a lot of excitement but hopefully things will get clearer in the next coming days as the fog of war dissipates.

  8. There needs to be some uprisings internally triggered by this to cause a quick end to the war.

  9. I hope it ends the war quicker but I doubt Putin would ever surrender unless the west directly intervened or something far more disastrous happens

  10. Damn so Russia is throwing everyone out to Ukraine and no one is at home lol.

    Did they think that no one would wanna invade them?

  11. It’s sad when you have to get supplies from North Korea – a state with a starving population.

  12. Next up: China invades Russia from the east. Only babushkas are available to defend the Motherland.

  13. All I know is the Russian Army is now the 2d best in Russia.

  14. I don’t know if this is going to prematurely end the war, I don’t think so.

    But still that offense captured way more territory in a shorter timeframe than the Russians did since at least the War basically stabilized in the frontlines we know since the liberation of Cherson.
    And for these gains the Russians sacrificed tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of troops and several billion dollars worth of material.

    But Ukraiine achieved the recent gains with only a fraction of that and so far no catastrophic losses have been reported, quite the contrary, Russian conscripts capitulating to Ukrainian troops, that is the Best Case Scenario for Ukraine.

    Whatever little ground they captured in Ukraine is basically completely invalidated by what Ukraine occupied inside Russia now.

    Sure, Russians will send reinforcements from other areas of the front to stop the Ukrainian Troops in Kursk and Belgorod. Because they have to, they can’t risk Ukrainian Troops rampaging through the Russian Countryside (atleast not more than they already do with long range drones).
    But these men will be missed in areas of the front in Ukraine itself, so Russian offenses will be either way slower or completely halted.

    I think it will hasten the end of the war a bit, but not end it this year.

    Regarding Quotes from Zelensky (dunno if they’re already verified or not), that he said, that the liberation of the Ukrainian territory doesn#t necessarily only work via military action, I don’t believe Ukraine capturing Parts of the Kursk Oblast and a little bit of Belgorod is enough to incentivize Russia leaving Ukraine entirely and giving back Crimea, Donbass and the territories occupied from 2022 onward.
