Ukraine was going to launch a blitzkrieg and break through Russian lines. They tried but the Russians killed them, and knocked out Bradleys and Leopards. The Bandera army did not even reach Russia's first line. So what is your optimism based on ? Just wishful thinking ? Even if they break through at one point, how will they sustain - the troops can get trapped by flank attacks.

Excellent discussion. Good set of questions. The high note takeaway is the unpredictable nature of war; the nonlinear compounding of many unforeseen events to lead to unsuspected outcomes. We are watching the current accounts of Russia's GDP shrink quickly to zero; the untraded market value of the ruble a penny on the € and close to a penny on the $, the wholesale surrender of Russia's mythical 180000 troops, the utter devastation of behind-the-lines Russian logistics, the increasing partisan attacks in Russia by Russians, the staggering loss of Russian War machines in the field; the improved air defense of Ukraine skies.... All come together and force this war to a dramatic and swift end. Those predicting a multi-year war think linearly. War is very nonlinear. So they are very wrong. R. Banos' California

It's actually funny to think (outside of the horrific loss of life and buildings in Ukraine) that Putler's nation building folly has singlehandedly done more to propel the demise of Orcville over the past year than anything else in the last 50 years.

Inclined to agree that things can unravel quickly and the Russian state could collapse any day, but I think it's unrealistic to assume Ukraine is going to dramatically rout the Russians, just based on the last month of the conflict. Even if those nine brigades of western-trained and equipped troops broke through in Zaphorihizia, it seems unlikely it will precipitate a complete collapse of Russian lines in the south. The depth of defense in that area is significant and progress will not be rapid, there are several layers of defense to get through and the offensive could grind to a halt at any of them. Taking Berdyansk, Melitopol, or Mariupol may be a signal of the coming end, but we're still a long way from even that happening at this stage. Luhanks and Donbas are a different matter altogether, the Russians have been digging in there for eight years and it's a short distance to their supply lines in Rostov and Belgorod.

I was just a grunt so can't compare my understanding to that of a general but I think that the purpose of the mine fields, dragons teeth and ditches/trenches is to slow down Ukranian advances and channel them into defined areas where they can be smashed by artillery (as happened a few weeks ago with the first Leopards and Bradleys) so for this reason lately Ukranians have really put the emphasis on counter-battery effort, destroying 20-30 pieces of russian tube artillery every day- as well as hitting weapon dumps and logistics. Without the threat of beiing hit with 152mm ordnance, because russians have been deprived of their howitzers or the shells to shoot, the Russian defences can be overcome with better odds.

That's even the report from media services like WION and Hindustan Times. I hardly think Russia's friends and allies in India, would be deliberately down playing or falsifying this outcome for Russia. Another, disgusting inhumane effort. You failed, bot.

Leave it to the Britts for having common sense 😊

Just checking in hows that counter offensive going?

Losing tens of thousands of people to "identify".

I was reconnaissance by fire once upon a time. Part of a dog team relying on the superior sense of sight, hearing, and smell. With the shotgun next and machine gun next, and the lead squad leader close on. Backed by a 90 man infantry company. Usually on an alert, we would decide on recon with machine gun or to carefully push forward to validate the contact. This improved survival hugely. My treat was that while everyone dug deep fighting positions at night, I and the officers did not dig. And often the lieutenants dug too.

If what you said and what were published in mainstream media is 10% true, by now Moscow should have been invaded by Ukraine. That' s what it baffles me.

Hilarious. Putler gave the ruskies 3 days to take Ukraine. How's that going? Gulp that copium

The Kharkiv breakout was not really combined arms warfare. They were deprived then, as they are now, from a serious air support element. Arguably the most important element of combined arms warfare. The West’s readiness to send Ukraine off to fight without adequate air support is truly criminal and spineless.

The US doesn't care about how many Ukrainians die. Its a war provoked by the US and planned years before the 2014 coup to destroy Russia. The US has stated it is not prepared to allow anyone to challenge is hegemony.

Well done, brave Ukrainians! God bless you and speed you to victory. Forward and onward to the sea!

Great interview as always. Excellent questions with an excellent guest to get the best information possible. Thank you.

Their speed of advancement is limited by the lack of air support. It is the normal tactic to attack by air before attacking by land.

The Estonians were in Afghanistan! Wow. Imho thats a great sign!

He did not defeat ISIS he bombed them from the air, the women and men of Rojava defeated them, then we let turkey + other islamists take over critical parts of the territory they had reclaimed from ISIS for democracy ( a special type of eco-feminist democracy) .... I think we should try not to forget that.

SLICING THROUGH::: After a month of the Ukraine offensive, Ukraine's army never even reached 1 line of Russian defense. The closest they get is a distance of around 10 km... Around 25 000 dead or wounded, and losses in equipment are huge. The problem is that Russia is using a complex system of defense lines, long-range artillery, and drones. Another problem is that Ukraine's army as we knew from the beginning of the war, is destroyed, and what we are seeing now are semi-trained amateurs without proper artillery support and no air support at all. Actually, if Nato does not send their troops, and we are talking about 40-50 thousand men, Ukraine is lost...

The progress for Ukraine may be considered 'slow', but they still have taken back more of their own territory in a few weeks, than Russia took in 6 months of their own 'winter offensive'. Now we are talking about little old Ukraine fighting against the '2nd strongest military in the world'! Oh sorry, I forgot to mention the 5% of their annual military budget the US have donated in munitions. So yes Russia you are 'definitely' fighting the US/NATO/West here! LOL
