russia’s November 2024 territorial gains were nearly five times larger than its entire 2023 advances. This surge is attributed to Ukraine’s resource constraints and russia’s innovative tactics

1. Innovative? Really?

2. A few thoughts on the topic.

   My communication with the military indicates that Ukraine needs military reforms, a system of punishment that is not loyal to corrupt officials, and the army needs to be strengthened with infantry, but not by dissolving old brigades and forming new ones without proper re-staffing. It also shows that military propaganda is being undermined by scandals involving officials and has a generally low level because most of the unmotivated civilians remain, and amid such losses, their morale continues to decline. Negotiations are, of course, interesting, but only from a position of strength. Right now, it’s crucial to implement changes quickly and extensively, as halting this war at this point will likely lead to the emergence of a new one, and it’s not guaranteed that it will be of the same scale. Defeat for Ukraine, in my opinion, is existential and essentially would signify the defeat of democratic society, no matter how Ukraine is viewed by others. Over these three years, I have realized that there are plenty of clowns and cynical assholes in power in every country, except for a few. People are the same everywhere. In this sense, Ukraine is neither better nor significantly worse than other countries. So if the thieves of toilets win this time, it will not be the end, but rather the beginning of Armageddon.

3. They have no strategic gains. More fallow farms and bombed out settlements. No news here.
