Werent reddit experts saying russia will lose the war
>Dr Marina Miron, a defence researcher at Kings College London, suggested to the BBC that there was a possibility the Ukrainian eastern front “might actually collapse” if Russia continued to advance at pace
This article is 6 days old and it is just a prediction from a Russia specialist.
“If Russia continues to advance Ukraine forces might collapse “
wow very profound.
A collapsed front might just as well be already the case if you use this definition. After the loss of Vulhadar Russia had nearly no push-back for 10km.
Same sarcastic Reddit reply section that had Trump losing is also scoffing and trying to downplay Russias advances in Ukraine.
Please, please, please go find some military summary channels and look for yourself at how bad it is for Ukraine right now. Acting smug and retorting the same bs statements about how useless Russia are is not helping. You are actively downplaying how bad it is for Ukraine.
You are not helping, you are silencing the issue.
Love the armchair experts in the comments going “oh but it can be explained with [basic concept of military strategy] so it’s not actually a troubling development” as if the *doctor of military strategy* in the article wasn’t aware of said concept.
I’m afraid it’s getting to a question of when rather then if.
Shame on EU for failing once again to step up. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if EU stayed quiet if Russia attacked one of the Baltics.
This article is so frustrating because they seem to have talked with actual experts but only quote **a single goddamn sentence**.
I wanna hear what they have to say, give me transcripts BBC, do your job
The sad reality is what Ukraine will be like after the war, win or lose. Not only have their cities and infrastructure been devastated, but they have hundreds of thousands of deaths from the war. Mostly young men. How will this impact their economy and population over the long-term?
Makes sense. Ukraine has been given enough to “survive,” but not enough to win. Russia has the manpower and it’s only a matter of time unless something changes in Ukraine’s favor.
Reddit is indeed an echo chamber. Redditors have been parotting Ukrainian propaganda for 3 years. They hail cherry-picked Ukrainian wins, dismiss Putin as a “mad man”, and constantly look down on Russia, while the true situation is vastly different from what is shown on their little iphone screens.
It’s no different from how it was in Germany 1945.
I do not support Russia, but the constant propaganda and smugness just get on my nerves.
This has been a issue since spring but people just downplayed it as russian propaganda .
History is a flat fucking circle. Russia loses and loses and loses and loses until their enemy can’t afford to win anymore. This is the same country that burnt their own capital to spite Napoleon.
The sad part is, they could’ve actually kept going this time, but Americans were too determined to have…cheaper eggs? Stupid stupid stupid
Europe, where are you?
The Russian breakthrough right now mostly has to do with the lack of good defensive positions behind Vuhledar which have given the Russians the ability to get behind the Ukranian defensive line.
The Russians are still advancing slowly with heavy casulties everywhere else.
“Russia has NK soldiers fighting, they are so desperate”, even if they are that desperate, the 10k soldiers and more coming is a masterstroke no matter their quality. Ukraine is even more desperate for soldiers, but they can’t get any of their allies to put some boots on the ground
Man people keep saying Ukrainian lines are collapsing, but then you go look at the live map and realize the Russians have pushed maybe 20km from Bakhmut.
Man.some of you are weirdly happy and smug about this
Remember when everyone expected Russia to fold within the first month of the war?
Remember when yall believed the Russians were out of weapons and only using shovels lmao
Numerous military bloggers have reported on the ongoing advancements, which come as no surprise. Over the past year, they have achieved gradual progress, although it has come with significant sacrifices.
Let’s be honest though, if other countries were going to put boots on the ground they’d of done it by now .. 🙁
Russia does not have the logistics to capture Ukraine. They couldn’t do it when Ukraine was at their weakest, and now a bunch of conscripts and North Koreans is gonna be what causes the front to collapse? Puhhhhhleeeeeze.
The current administration needs to push for a massive shipment of equipment and goods before January
Russia is making great gains in late November ? really? or do the warmongers want to ramp up the war before Trump comes to office?
I do not disagree with the many commenters in here talking about the echo chamber and cognitive dissonance of most Westerners when it comes to this war. Fact is, most people dont actually know much about the context of the conflict, and they dont actually follow the happenings on a regular basis, they just support Ukraine’s quest for survival and believe what they want to to that end.
But many of these same people criticizing those supporting Ukraine are similarly biased and subjective, and often take cues from bullshit sources to arrive at their desired ends of “Russia was provoked, Ukraine losing, war should end”. Let us not forget what happened in February 22. Russian columns of tanks and infantry marching on Kiev in an all-out offensive, occupying cities and towns, torturing the locals and killing military aged men. Every person who presents this narrative of a “NATO provoked conflict” is providing direct cover for a dictator launching the first land war in Europe in generations. Putin’s own address on the eve of the invasion provides valuable insight into his motivations, and yet people play mental gymnastics to try and explain away this invasion as nothing more than a sensible response to provocation.
I guess all that is to say, very few people commenting and speculating about the conflict from either side have a good understanding of it. Just because the obviously superior army is winning by attrition doesn’t mean these people’s flawed defenses of a murderous occupation are legitimate
Wasn’t there a youtube video when the war started that Russia would only last 2 weeks or something?
