Thank you for simply being you in ukr4/18/2023 ![]() They were defeated and those who didn't flee to London have since stopped to interfere with the state. This can best be seen in the war Putin waged against those billionaires who, in the 1990s and early 2000nds, tried to enter politics to prioritize their interests over all others. They do not allow particular interest groups to have an oversized influence on it. It is the result of policies that are a.) rational and well explained and b.) thoroughly democratic in that they follow the public opinion of the majority of the people. The high ratings of Putin and other political leaders have in independent Russian polls is not by chance. The first is to follow the will of the people. Why hasn't the Russia's political leadership done this yet?Īfter observing it for two decades I have concluded that the Russian political leadership, foremost its current leader Vladimir Putin, is driven by two guiding principles. The most mentioned demand in the pro-Russian commentariat yesterday was to "take off the gloves" - to seriously interdict 'western' deliveries of weapons, to destroy Ukrainian bridges and other dual-use infrastructure, to switch from a 'Special Military Operation' towards war. The Russian military forces in Ukraine are too few to hold the 1,500 kilometer long frontline against a Ukrainian military which now has a.) a much larger force to work with, b.) no concerns about high human losses and c.) a steady supply of 'western' weapons. It was also the rational consequence of a lack of military resources. Yesterday's Russian withdrawal from the region between Izium and the Russian border was a disaster for the (pro-)Russian people on the ground. role in this was historically a mere sideshow.) ![]() In the end the Soviet Union simply outproduced the German Reich and its allies in nearly everything - tanks, airplanes, cannons, ammunition, fuel, food and soldiers - which enabled its victory. In May 1942, near Izium, the Nazis thoroughly defeated a counterattacking Soviet force twice their forces size. Stalin was wrong, as the Second Battle of Kharkov, mentioned here yesterday, provides. The simplistic view that "quantity has a quality of its own," is usually attributed to Joseph Stalin, the Georgian leader of the Soviet Union during the second World War (as well as before and after). The above is the opener of Dima's Military Summary of yesterday's events in Ukraine. And this army is able to crack the Russians' defense order just with stones because there are so much of them." Some sources are saying, joking of course they are joking, that now the Ukrainians these days have a so big army that the Ukrainian authorities can give them just stones. Because the Ukrainians managed to collect a big number of infantry. But I believe, if they don't change anything after this situation, that means there is no need to continue this Special Operation. If you ask what the Russian should change, to tell the truth, I don't know. SeptemThe Izium Withdrawal - A Catalyst For 'Starting In Earnest' " We can say that today was the best ever, the second best ever, day for the Russians in the territory of Ukraine.
