Putin Reveals ENTIRE War Strategy to Russian Public!

Vladimir Putin just revealed Russia’s entire strategy for the Ukraine conflict just what exactly is the strategy how is he trying to reassure the public and why now is he revealing the truth to the Russians I’m Paul US Army Combat veteran let’s get into it okay so this actually shocked me because you might remember yesterday we talked how Putin appeared to have made an accidental slip up revealing some key statistics about Russian losses in the Ukraine conf but maybe that wasn’t a slip up maybe that was the real a real policy shift for the Kremlin trying to cover or indicate more truthfully to the Russian public what is going on and what Putin is explaining now is the real plan for Russian Victory in Ukraine this is at the same St Petersburg conference uh and Putin reassured the public first and foremost that Russia doesn’t need callup of reservists like they did in September 2022 a partial mobilization because remember Russia has a pretty robust conscription system so their reservists are actually a a large portion of their uh military age male population Russia is he says they’re not trying to rapidly achieve military objectives in Ukraine which you notice is revealing right it means that they instead have a gradual uh strategy to achieve their uh goals and he said their goal uh that basically he said the current military contingent committed in Ukraine I.E the entire Russian combat capable Ground Force isn’t sufficient for a rapid Victory but says Russian forces are instead aiming to squeeze Ukrainian forces quote out of those territories that should be under Russian control end quote this is really interesting because when we ask what are those territories uh some reporting earlier had indicated that it is basically the administrative borders of the zapo aesia oblast the uh denet o blast and the luans O blast which are interesting for a number of reasons let’s see if I can find the maps here um let’s see if we can find luans oblast so you can see here Lans oblast actually is fairly well uh delineated um you can see that satova vova uh severo denet leans uh but what’s fascinating right kator uh you could see that in some ways they control more than that standard uh the luans territories right when you switch it up with denet oblast right you can see that denes go including crur denet all the way down to marial um and then you look at zapo deia oblast right and you can see that this is probably where Russian forces have the most work to do um and it’s unlikely I think they even aspire to control heran oblast I think they find this Neo River to be just too good of a natural barrier so I suspect I hypothesize that that is the Russian uh what what Putin refers to now you might remember we talk a lot about his kind of rusky Mir vision of restoring the Russian Empire to its historic lands I.E its uh domination of its neighbors and neighboring populations but um I think Putin is now finally trying to scale his Ambitions to reality and I think that is his Ambitions right he wants to reach those borders declar the Republic’s a part of Russia um or whatever legal fiction he chooses to come up with um and then simply declare Victory even if it’s un if it’s uh one-sided right sort of like where Putin says listen we’re done the war here uh we’re digging in we’re going to build a a very robust defensive structure and and that is that I I think that’s actually the plan right and Putin has also o dropped that the mo current mobilization efforts are sufficient for this approach and that Russia has brought in he said 160,000 new Personnel in so far in 2024 right we’re about 6 months in so that puts it right around 25,000 new Personnel every single month which is interesting cuz that’s about what the ukrainians are killing off every month um but Russia has still made gradual gains uh again some of them are tactically significant some of them a lot of them are tactically insignificant this advance for example in the last 24 hours in chiv Yar uh is significant right when Russi Russian forces dig into an urban area they can move house to house and that’s what they’ve been doing in chivar so they’re now on the outskirts of the town so it seems fairly likely based on kind of Russian tactical successes that they’re going to creep their way through the entirety of chos ofar um as the as Russians are apt to do um but the fascinating part is again that it Putin’s relying on some key assumptions here the first is that Ukrainian forces are no longer able to conduct any substantial Liberation campaign this is probably because of the failure of the Ukrainian counter offensive effort um and that the that failure um really told Russia Hey listen if you can take territory it’s very unlikely to be lost uh which which is an a not unfair assumption um he also asserted that Western support to Ukraine is finite and that Russian forces right because they’ve stopped Ukrainian efforts to retake territory um mean that eventually the West will get sick of it new leaders will be elected and that Ukraine will be abandoned by its allies uh uh enabling the Russians to make further gains right now I find this interesting for a couple of reasons first off what Putin didn’t disclose he disclosed his Battlefield plan but what he didn’t acknowledge explicitly is the other two prongs of the Russian offensive plan and those are taking place in the west one is targeting ukrainians political support these are targeting politicians and countries who provide diplomatic and material support for Ukraine at a governmental level um this of course is part of just a campaign to isolate Ukraine from international support pivot international support to the Russian side that’s one of the reasons I think Russia is so being so active in Africa is to bring more to bifurcate the International Community and have a larger contingent of countries that support Russian efforts here right now the International Community is overwhelmingly in support of Ukraine even countries that don’t necessarily arm it still recognize that they don’t want to live in a world where a big strong neighbor can invade and Conquer a smaller weaker neighbor um and willy-nilly right so most countries want to sit there and say this is not this is not okay right but that kind of international cons cus is something Putin’s been trying to chip away at um and he’s got China on his side who claims to be a neutral broker in the war despite supplying Russia a lot of War material um and again he’s bringing more and more of these African countries Iran and other countries to kind of support this Russian effort but the the the the third prong I thought is most significant and that is Russian efforts to change public opinion in the west and that includes some of the stories I’ve covered here right Russian banked agents are conducting publicity stunts in and around Paris to discourage the French from supporting or to create the perception in the French public that there’s actually less support for Ukraine than the reality might indicate right uh they’ve staged videos they’ve really pulled out all the stops and we also know that Russia has been working tirelessly to influence Poli politicians in the EU in Canada in the United States um and that these Russian efforts to influence these politicians are Again part of Shifting the policy or sort of throwing Gunk into the wheels so to speak of the policy you saw how effective it is right by Russia was unable to stop Ukrainian aid from being passed but it created a massive delay and that delay led to directly to the Russian conquest of ad divka right so there’s that Pol the political aspect there’s the propaganda aspect and I strongly strongly believe as you guys should um that when you see you should go on to things like the RT website and you can see the talking points that Russia wants propagated in Western media and then you can see those talking points appear in other major news outlets like a like an invasive tree right shooting up at little Roots here we know the main tree trunk is RT or Tas or other Russian State length services but you could see those same talking points pop up all over in other right-wing often right-wing news outlets but but also in some leftwing news outlets right I saw recently a Russian talking point about the um treating a routine NATO planning exercise for the defense of NATO uh trying to uh convince people that it was actually part of a dangerous NATO escalation that NATO was somehow planning to invade Russian territory um and that story ended up on like the like a socialist News website so Russia doesn’t have ideology they just want to make sure that they not just push their talking points or their fictional points but that they create a perception in Democratic countries of a divided electorate that where there’s a large contingent of people who uh believe in an isolationist or non-interventionist uh stance right that would allow of course Russia to uh do its its interventions right conquering huge portions of their neighbors so that is part of the Russian strategy you might consider the fourth prong to be the pivoting of the Russian defense industrial base um to win the logistics War something that they have is their really competitive Advantage they have they can just generate Manpower and they can generate material at a rate that the West simply cannot the West is kind of box itself into a into a situation uh where they are they could make very sophisticated weapon systems but they cannot replace them in any kind of meaningful way um not in any kind of timeline that matters for uh conflict um anyway guys that’s all the the one thing I want

  1. The strategy is not insane when you see that Russia main casualties are prisoners, mercenaries and Ukrainians from the occupied regions. These people are those that dont matter to Russian society. The biggest factor isnt manpower but how long Russian economy will last.

  2. It is the HEIGHT of folly to imagine that anything which comes out of Putin's mouth is in anyway coherent, trustworthy, or should be considered to be anything like ~51% or more accurate or truthful. Your lack of comprehension about what Russia actually is and how Putin's authoritarian mechanisms actually function is the chief problem, but you are not alone in being essentially ignorant on these matters. The authoritarian system in Russia is neither a totalitarian system along the lines of Nazi Germany, nor is it flawed democracy of the sort we are familiar with in the West. Putin is both more powerful than a Western leader such as Biden, Sholz or Macron–primarily because summary "justice," and a near-monopoly on violence can be used by Putin to "remove problems," options which are much more complicated and prone to risk for Western leaders–and WEAKER than Western leaders because he is even more lacking in valid legitimacy manifest through his earnest representation of the best interests of his people. Putin may imagine that he is Peter the Great, or even Stalin; people like you and various other commentators may imagine that he is Hitler or Genghis Khan, but the fact is, he is NONE of these things. He is Putin, a former moderately successful KGB Colonel who grew up in poverty and was given an opportunity to achieve far beyond his childhood status by pursuing a career in the Soviet internal security apparatus. For Putin, the Soviet Union MADE HIM what he is, and he has some irrational fixation on restoring the society to that status. There is virtually nothing about his entire grand strategic plan which is coherent, insightful, or well-advised. The ONLY major decision which Putin has made in the past ~10 years which made solid sense was to secure the Russian Federations leased military facilities in Crimea back in early 2014 at a time when there was indeed substantial social disorder and unrest in Ukraine and the security of those national assets were in fact in a state of some degree of enhanced risk.

    However, even that decision, was botched because instead of simply securing those facilities, and then establishing dialogue with all the parties involved in the Revolution of Dignity Putin immediately went to the extraordinary extreme of annexing the entire Crimean Peninsula. This reflected a degree of insecurity, irrationality, and delusion which few people at the time seemed to comprehend, but in hindsight it makes sense when one considers that: Putin had likely been attempting to meddle in Ukrainian national politics since at least Leonid Kuchma's 2nd term. In sum: despite being one of the richest men in the world, a leader who did in fact "save Russia" from an economic downward spiral (albeit by methods which were unethical, duplicitous, almost certainly illegal and largely unsustainable in the long-term) and a leader who, as of the middle of his first term as President was in fact well-loved in general in Russia (even if he was not "totally unopposed"), Putin has never been satisfied with simply being the leader of the Russian Federation; Putin has always wanted to restore the Soviet Union. One might say "Putin had it all," but it was never enough: Putin wanted to correct what he referred to in his 2005 state of the nation address as the "greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century," the collapse of the Soviet Union.

    Most of what Putin has ever claimed is a load of bullshit, just like the claims you are describing here. Putin is likely expressing it at this point specifically because there is increasing non-compliance and even dissent among Russian citizens as a result of the heavy toll in casualties and the worsening economic conditions. Russians see who is gone, who has come back severely wounded, who has come back mentally damaged; people see the unmistakable signs of the futile, wasteful efforts to gain ground at great cost.

    STOP taking anything Putin says at "face value" and read between the lines. Place any and all claims, comments, policies and statements which trace back to Putin or his regime more broadly into a coherent framework of understanding who these people are, what they are actually striving to do, and how what they claim might actually be positioned to serve their goals.

  3. Revisionist propaganda. A 3 day attritional action? Not credible. He’s all in on completing his corruption of the GOP and will bribe Trump to undermine NATO. That is pretty much Putin’s ONLY end game left. .

  4. It is the russian soul. It is its collective memory. Lots of peassants 5 ft under. But it does not end there. To humiliate Russians even further, they will repatriate them and have a famine go hand in hand with this ultimate sacrifice. In short, go down for free. To benefit the privileged. That many sleepwalk into believing such is communisms strength is just mindblowing. Maybe humans in 🇷🇺 have an unforseen genome that activates and make them turn toward life and stand up against their deathcentric opressors. That is also why T can't. The deep evil is not in the populations past and future. Although T tries hard.

  5. So, the Russians seem not to care about Crimea. Putin is not at all welcome in any part of Ukraine. They soon will not have a southern navy, they may soon lack refining capability, their economy is in shatters and people will start to deeply despise the mega-ego Putin. Time for him to depart.

  6. Empereur Emanuelle Macaroni du Rothschild XVI earlier announced that he is creating a European coalition of military NATO-instructors working directly in Ukraine. He also noted that some countries have already agreed. The Czech Republic will not send its instructors to Ukraine: this year the country can train up to 4,000 Ukrainian soldiers, but it will do this on its own territory, said the country's defense minister. As Yana Chernokhova noted, 4,000 soldiers (a brigade) were trained in the Czech Republic last year, and a mandate for the same number was approved for this year.

    "As soon as we get word that a shift is full, we provide our training space and instructors. I think it's worth it," she said.

  7. Putin is trying to reassure people in the big cities, such as Moscow and Saint Petersburg, that there will not be a large-scale conscription. He probably already understood that such a conscription could end up in a revolt. He tries to go on with enrolling mercenaries and poor farmers and hope for the best. He might even try to "freeze" the conflict, waiting for the outcome of the US elections in November.
    I think this is the beginning of the end for him. In one year time or a little more he will have exhausted the stock of tanks and other weapons, while Ukraine will still be receiving weapons, if Biden is re-elected. If Biden is re-elected, Putin needs to get out of this conflict as fast as possible or has to switch to the defensive trying to keep the territories that he managed to occupy.

    He will probably give some weapons to the Houthi, to Iran, which will only serve to relax even more the "red lines" that the US has imposed to Ukraine.

    Ukraine has two big problems: troop generation and electricity generation for this winter. Other than that, Ukraine is poised for complete victory in 2025 or 2026. If the war lasts until 2026, Russia will fall under a boatload of inflation, lack of weapons, crumbling of morale, and loss of political support for Putin.

  8. I was getting worried that we weren’t going to be getting our STRIKE GUM segue. 12:00 thank me later.

    Lol just messing love your videos and if I wasn’t broke as shit this is one of the few channels that is worth supporting. When I can I will become a member! Your doing the lords work

  9. He is a weak sad man using football fields of his own citizens corpses to shield him from accountability. This is not the act of a "Strong Man", but a sniveling coward. Thank you for your service!!! Slava Ukrani!!!!!!

  10. I come to a realisation today Ukraine have no chance of winning this war there losing ground everywhere and completely at the mercy of the west, the west will not find this war for much longer they just won’t . They were weeks away from losing just recently. We’re just dragging this war out and for what? Starting ww3

  11. There's roughly 800m people in the EU ,plus Uk with 70m (give or take a million or so). We can absolutely match the Russians in manpower – even outmatch them.
    As for weapons production, pretty much the same or again, even much better.

  12. Trump sent a tweet saying he feared nuclear war and would negotiate peace for Ukraine. These are kremlin talking points.
    Steve Bannon and Sen Tuberville said on podcast there’s no real fighting in Ukraine and President Biden is escalating the violence by supporting Ukraine. They blame the US for the war. This is Russian propaganda.
    Rep Marjorie Tailor Greene proposed a bill to eliminate $400 million in funding to maintain US military bases in Europe. She told a host of lies to justify this.
    So we see maga republicans promoting Russian messages all the time. Apparently some Americans are fine with supporting Putin.

  13. The American authorities, led by President Joe "the ZioNazi" Biden, want to provoke Russia into attacking Poland. Former US military intelligence officer Tony Shaffer stated this on the Judging Freedom YouTube channel.

  14. 4:48:You're taking Putin's word at face value? You should know better. Russia isn't currently meeting replacement levels of "recruiting". During the Avdiivka operation, Russia was replacing its losses at about 10k per month.

    Since ammunition began flowing to Ukraine again, Russian losses are up 20% to 50% (peak).

    Russia didn't magically pull another 20 to 30% recruiting out of nowhere when they'd been struggling to get to 10k.

    Russia doesn't need another "mobilization" because it never actually stopped mobilizing. They're just doing it in a less confused, hectic, and public way to avoid outcry.

    Again, Perun channel has a presentation on this that you'd benefit from watching or listening to since he does much more in depth research than your cursory internet searches.

  15. Yes Mike Johnson of the USA has cost the Lives of many Ukrainians and the loss of Land, that is why Europe cannot trust America any more, they are only interested in what works best for the USA. Ukraine should be careful as they may find the USA forcing them too Cede lands to Putin !!

  16. It's interesting if Putin didn't mention Crimea. Perhaps he realizes he can't hold it once the bridge comes down. However, once Russia loses grasp on Crimea, then it's much easier for Ukraine to make the rest of the occupied areas untenable for Russia to occupy.

  17. A comment on your final point: it isn't precisely true to say that the West cannot keep up with Russian military industrial output volume… I don't know about the rest of NATO, but America at least has more than enough logistical capability to outpace Russian production of arms and ammo both at a higher level of quality and at a higher level of quantity… in theory. The problem isn't the logistical/production infrastructure, it's chucklefucks in Congress not doing their jobs and obstructing bipartisan bills just to try to get on TV so they can rant about conspiracy theories. We just have to vote out the idiots in Congress who are trying to support Russia

  18. I wouldn't be surprised if the cyber attack on London's NHS on 5th June 2024 was perpetratored by Putin. We have to stand strong with Ukraine and ensure that the Putin regime is condemned to history books as an incompetent autocratic cleptocracy.

  19. I suspect he's really addressing this at western governments in the hope that they will believe his ambition stops at the front line.

    Well, western governments, bear in mind that what Putin wants is not Donetsk. Or Luhansk. It's not Ukraine and it's not a new iron curtain. He doesn't want Europe and he doesn't want an empire.

    All he wants is… more.

    Whatever concessions you make will simply make him want more and merely encourage him to push harder.
