What To Expect From Ukraine Must Launch A Counteroffensive. by rottennaija(m): 6:25pm On Jun 04, 2023
πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ must launch a counteroffensive. There is no question of yes or no, but rather when. Billions are invested, thousands trained so that must yield results. When it happens, and when the first πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ troops roll over the first πŸ‡·πŸ‡Ί line, the media will be jubilant...

/1
In the first days and weeks, retired generals turned into military experts will explain with arrows and circles on the major TV Media progress, presidents will speak with a smile on their faces, and glasses will be raised with salutes to glory and victory...

/2
Then something will start to get weird: the media will report about numerous buildings, roads, schools, hospitals, bridges closed to the frontline destroyed, atrocities, bombings, urgent need for more help, munition, equipment, money and all kind of support...

/3
Videos and photos will pop up but not any more of the burned Russian equipment and corpses scattered in the tranches, but the opposite... the urgent meetings will be held in the alliance buildings and governments expressing unwavering support and solidarity...

/4
Day by day it will be less news from the front and more and more funerals and obituaries behind... The faces of the generals and politicians will look more pale shifting the comments... but that may not last long, because the other side will have a ball...

The grandfather of @ABlinken was born in #Kyiv, #Ukraine, before immigrating to the US to give birth to @SecBlinken father. Now, Blinken is pushing America deeper into the war with #Russia knowing well Ukraine will never win. Russia will not also win. These wars are never won. But Ukraine will likely suffer more immediate and long term damages.

At international events, Blinken sounds great, gives speeches that attract ovation. But if a nuclear war explodes leading to a World War Three, killing millions of people, Blinken is likely to be remembered as the most disastrous Secretary of State in modern American history.

In his speech days ago, he claimed that now is not the time for a cease-fire as that would allow Russia to re-arm. Even Napoleon Bonaparte, who is considered the greatest General who ever lived, lost the war against Russia more than 200 years ago. The only solution is sincere negotiations on all sides and not more wars and more money for wars that only enrich the military industrial complex and impoverish the common man. May God help us.

Zelensky called on China to "try to contain the Russian Federation"

He noted that China is "bigger and more powerful" than Russia and can play an important role in establishing peace.

Ze doesn’t get what strategic partnership means , does he ?!

⚑"I don't want to hear the slogan of the πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ Ukrainian Nazis on πŸ‡­πŸ‡· Croatian soil." Milanovic equated the Banderovites with the Ustashas.

"The Bandera salute 'Glory to Ukraine' is no different from the slogans of the πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ German Nazis," said Croatian President Zoran Milanovic.vjjjjh

Some NATO politicians and military people genuinely believe now there are no red lines becase Putin hasn't nuked Kiev or London so far.

All kind of escalations are supported.

They believe Putin is only capable of bluffing and NATO Ukraine can just capture Crimea or Donetsk.

We even hear fantasies about NATO destroying Russian fleet if Russia launches nuclear weapons.

Russia launches nuclear strikes and then just accepts NATO destroying Russian military?

Such delusions about Crimea and red lines can only lead to global nuclear holocaust.

Indeed Putin bluffed few times too many and NATO gradually kept escalating by sending more and more weapons.

At some point he will be left with no choice but to show that his words aren't just empty bluffs.

Then it could be too late for everyone to avoid a disaster.

Russians must be careful
They will have to let Ukrainians some small successes...
Otherwise Kiev wil call the suicide mission called Spring Offensive off too early.
The best thing Russia can hope for is NATO trained dudes running deeper into the killing zones.

Two dangerous assumptions for Ukraine now.

One that the counteroffensive can only be successful, even after taking big losses they will continue to push believing they can only be victorious.

And another that Russia isn't capable of launching own offensive afterwards.

Yesterday Putin hinted at potential operation to protect the Russian border. Most likely in Kharkov region but also Sumy and Chernigov.

If Ukraine invests too much into the counteroffensive it can happen during Ukraine's attacks in Zaporozhye or after the counteroffensive.

Can't afford to have all NATO equipment destroyed during the counteroffensive and then just hope Russia is also depleted and doesn't have enough more mobilized troops for counterattack which could even happen in Zaporozhye or in Kharkov region to help with Donbass operation.
