    An ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin has implied that Moscow cannot push Ukraine out of Kursk by the end of the year, despite Putin previously setting a deadline to kick them out by October.

    Russia’s Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces, Valery Gerasimov, said that all the tasks set by the country’s leadership for the military in 2024 have been completed, according to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. He was speaking during a briefing for the military. As Ukrainian forces remain in Kursk, it is possible that driving them out was not a task for Russian forces to complete by the year’s end.

  2. When I write my goals completed in my self review, I only put completed work .

  3. If all the tasks have been completed they can go back to ruZZia.

  4. Ah well, russian deadlines and targets change on a monthly base. In only less than 3 years hey went from “denazify and demilitarize entire Ukraine” to “let’s try capture 4 regions maybe and also try to get our occupied region back”.

  5. Doesn’t mean they won’t try. Russia is scrambling for quick victories after losing Syria and a number of high profile embarrassments.

    We already saw them throw North Koreans prematurely into the grinder.

  6. Didn’t Putin order them to retake it by October 1? What happened?

  7. Russia needs to be crushed into a fine white powder.

    No concessions. None at all.
