According to Western intelligence, Putin may believe he is on the winning side due to his generals presenting him with an overly “optimistic” picture of the war’s progress.
The civilian economy in Russia is showing strain after three years of conflict, with oil revenues falling “well below” the levels required by Putin to sustain his military endeavors, say experts.
Moreover, while Russian artillery once outnumbered Ukraine’s by up to fifteen times, that advantage has diminished to about a two-to-one ratio, Western sources assert.
Nah, it s stalemate. Nobody is winning right now. Both camp can still win.
They are lying because Putin is a narcissist and those people can’t get any form of criticism of any kind, and negative informations from the front are one. He takes those personally because of his NPD, and that makes him angry beyond common sense.
Edit: also; Putin is a coward, like most narcissists are…
I love when Putin loses
Go home vlad
The generals lie to putler because they don’t know how to fly out of windows. He created this fear for your life system and now its biting him in his soft jelly underbelly
It would be nice, but Russia has too much potential for that.
But this war will weaken Russia for years to come.
Great, hitler had the same issue. I see some resemblance.
This is not rocket science.
1+1=2.
But in russia 1+1=2000
The problem with surrounding yourself with yes men, in turn the curse of being a dictator. Everything goes well until it ends with a bang. The problem is that Russia still can and do make deals with several nations in the world and still has a running oil economy despite everything. They can fall but will get up on their feet again. Russia loves to speak about how Ukraine needs to be controlled to never join this and that. In reality, Russia would probably need to be basically bought out and strictly governed by several nations under a pact that is mutually beneficial to the involved parties, giving incentive to adhere to it over a costly fight. Otherwise this broken sewage pipe will just keep spewing sewage.
So what is the situation on the ground then? Does it look like Russia is losing?
I’ve heard this speculation repeated for years now. What does it matter if it doesn’t change the reality on the ground?
Im so sceptical towards all the “news” that sounds like that. And on top of that, Express is BS, click-bait AI generated content that masquerade itself as “news source”
We all remember news where Russia lost 99% of tanks in the first week of war, and 150% of helicopters into he first month. And 3 million of troops. Whatever….
Russia started rough but they got their shit together.
Do they lie to Putin? Of course they do. I don’t even need to read that garbage to know that. He is still expecting that Ukrainians will celebrate him as a liberator….
Are they losing war? Not according to the maps.
The problem is, this could be (and was) a headline from 2 or 3 years ago. 😬
As much as i would like ukraine to win and hearing “russia is loosing” we should not fall into an information bubble. Russia has been gaining with stable progress and their manpower is far from depleated, while ukraine is suffering from american bullshitery and lack of comparable manpower to russia. Russia does have some unreast and they did loose a lot of armor, but as things are ukraine will run out of men and ammo faster than russia will of meat charges.
Duh, for many in Ru, a war is a unique opportunity to get rich quick using various schemes, so why would they stop? Sure some may die, but that is a risk they are willing to take.
I have deja vue of : “Nein! Nein! Nein! Das war ein befehl!”
I mean if you thought the nearest window would spell certain doom for you, you’d lie to him too.
Putin.
Ask Alexa – “Am I winning?”
Surely this is the answer to all his needs?
I don’t know – he seems as scared as fuck. His behaviors are those of a quaking, skittish, indecisive, little piece of garbage.
I don’t think he was playing any game not going to Turkiye, I think he’s is scared shitless.
Looks good on you, Evil Elmer Fudd.
No shit bro, I see videos daily of Ukraine killing soldiers while I read in the news that Russia is bombing kids.
It’s probably pretty easy to bend meanings when you are technically gaining land. You just leave all the bad parts out.
“We gained a small, unpopulated village yesterday” – they don’t say (it took us thousands of dead and hundreds of vehicles lost to do it)
That whole country runs on delusion and propaganda, so it won’t be much of a shock when they find out the truth, it happens so frequently. putin orchestrates most of it, so he knows how it works.
Sorry to burst your bubble but Russia is not losing.
They are losing people (which is something Putin does not care about) but they are not losing any conquered ground (which is very important to him)
Just like Hitler. Hopefully, it ends with a similar crushing defeat for Putin
I call bullshit on his “ignorance”. It’s the never ending myth of the “tsar is going the boyars are bad if onoy we could tell him the truth”. No this guys is a bloodsucker and should get the rope.
I wish this article defined “losing” because recent logistical struggles on the Kostyantynivka front are troubling.
UA has managed to hold, and even push back in Toresk with scrappy, nimble fighting.
However, anyone who looks at maps regularly knows that the possibility of a pincer around the southern Kostyantynivka pocket is developing — from the east, Stupochky, and from the west, Novoolenivka.
I’m not trying to be a doomer, I just wonder how much the “Ukraine is actually WINNING” narrative is more beneficial than a sober, realistic analysis of the ground & territory changes.
