International Russia/Ukraine Megathread V15

Well, if Russia was getting the same help from the West that Ukraine is getting, maybe they would have taken over all of Ukraine after 3 years of war. There is not going to be a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine because in truth neither side wants one. Ukraine will lose this conflict in the long run. Be it in another year or another 10 years.



You mean that the mighty Russian army needs help taking over pitiful Ukraine?!?!

Pathetic.
 
Hey guys remember 3 years ago when I said Zelensky should make a deal, give up the donbass and crimea, sign a peace deal, and agree not to join NATO because that was the absolute best case scenario?

Remember when 99% of you said I was wrong, couldn't provide your own version of how the war would end, and ultimately ended up telling me Ukraine would win the war?

3 years later, hundreds of thousands of dead, who ended up being right? You guys know exactly what I'm talking about. Would a starcraft grandmaster let a larger force attack them, knowing they could not defend against it without constant help? Or would the grandmaster sign a peace deal, and reinforce his army in order to prepare for a future attack?

What do you guys think the starcraft grandmaster would have done?
I remember you three years ago talking about starcraft, what of it?
 
For Putin, if he is reported that special operation is going as had been planned and might be continued....

Is more comfortable to delay ceasefire as long as it will be possible.

After this ceasefire will start, to slow down all negotiations as long as it will be possible.

Like, yes, we do have ceasefire but there and here we should negotiate this etc...better long months if not year plus...

Then west will reduce attention, most likely will help ukr lesser, especially financially and the more problems Ykr will have, the more Russia will be able to press Ukr to agree with.

Especially after Putin will see budgets 2026 th approved and to calculate approx how much financial etc support Ukr might get or not to get.
 
Yeah, like the mighty U.S. Army not being able to beat the North Koreans and losing 3 wars: Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan.
It is strange that you don't fight for Russia in okraine today.

Korea war was real proxy war vs China and U.S.S.R. plus North Korea.

Vietnam, Aganistan and Iraq ofc was proof that Kissinger was correct about U.S.

They does have proven hardcore track record that not only Kissinger was correct about U.S, also that all they are capable to do vs peer level opponent is to sell their friends and allies and ofc also overpriced weapons.
It is business and nothing personal.

Life is life....

Just don't hope that everyone here is delusional dreamer will ate your Lavrvov office ideology.
 
Institute for the Study of War, Ukraine Conflict Update, 22 March 2025.

Key Takeaways:
  • Ukrainian forces recently advanced near Pokrovsk, and Russian forces recently advanced near Siversk and Pokrovsk and in western Zaporizhia Oblast.
  • The Kremlin continues to innovate new ways to leverage conscripts to increase the pool of servicemembers eligible for military service in the future.
  • The Kremlin is weaponizing ongoing ceasefire negotiations and deliberately misrepresenting the status and terms of a future ceasefire agreement in order to delay and undermine negotiations for a settlement to the war.
  • Kremlin officials are leveraging narratives about Ukrainian strikes and combat operations in Russian territory to justify rejecting peace negotiations with Ukraine and continuing the war to a domestic Russian audience.
  • Russia continues to strengthen its bilateral relations with North Korea, despite growing warnings from the US against deeper Russian-North Korean cooperation.
  • Russian officials also continue to deepen ties with the People's Republic of China (PRC).
  • Ukraine's European allies continue efforts to provide Ukraine with military assistance and bolster Ukraine's defense industrial base (DIB).
  • Ukrainian forces recently advanced in Belgorod Oblast. Russian forces recently advanced in Sumy Oblast and near Kupyansk, Toretsk, and Pokrovsk.
  • Ukrainian and Western defense officials estimated that the Russian monthly casualty rate is between 20,000 and 35,000 servicemembers.
Let us put the last bullet into perspective:
The Vietnam war exacted an enormous human cost: estimates of Vietnamese soldiers and civilians killed range from 970,000 to 3 million. Some 310,000 Cambodians, 62,000 Laotians, and 58,220 US service members died. So, 1 month vs. 8 years. Russia is in this conflict for the duration, no matter how long it takes to achieve their goals.
 
Korea war was real proxy war vs China and U.S.S.R. plus North Korea.

Vietnam, Aganistan and Iraq ofc was proof that Kissinger was correct about U.S.

Life is life....

The last 'war' the US won was the Gulf War in 1991. If you can call it that. 6 months. Before that was WWII.
Yeah, well, despite your comments, the US did not beat the North Korean troops and lost the wars in Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq. It does not matter that we (US) won 90% of all battles in the last 3 wars if we lost the war in the end.
The Ukrainian conflict may very well end up like the Korean war. A cease fire since 1953. The war has not 'officially' ended.

The 2nd Infantry Division/ROK-US Combined Division is the last remaining permanently forward-stationed division in the U.S. Army. The Division deters aggression and maintains peace on the Korean Peninsula. -- A shitty tour in a country that does not want US military presence.

West never ever will allow russia to loss this war. I had posted this 2022 th.

Unfortunately obiviously North Korea, Iran and Belarus are supplying Russia better than west Ukraine....

For a reason.
Only an idiot can't see reality.

Why won't the west allow Russia to lose this war?
They are supplying Ukraine with military aid and yet don't want Russia to lose the conflict?

For example when Kim had supplied Russia ballistic missiles, obiviously not only he didn't had cared about their range, nor also had put clauses where and how these might be allowed to use.
The same with ammunition for arty and mortars.

Iran had supplied long range drones and had helped to build factory ...0 restrictions how and where to use.

Additionally Lukashenko not likely even had asked $....for him maybe was enough that russia had stationed additional SAM battery in Belarus....


Obiviously North Korea and Belarus really wants Russia to win...
For Ukraine? West doesn't looks concerned.

A bit they supplying ...cos looks that some from elites wants to keep part of ukr as buffer.....exactly part.
 

Good article about Witkoff performing the role of Russian mouthpiece.

Remember this when people are denying that the GOP are in bed with Putin.
Not all reps.
While now Trump administration looks that thinks that, let's be fair : ukraine for them is just rebellious their friends province nothing more here.

However some republican senators and congressmans had advocated to supply airplanes, Sullivan expressed concerns about escalation and outcome is that U.S had supplied 0 fighter jet ....they also had supplied 31 M1A1SA export version tanks in 2004 th allowed to be exported for countries like Morocco, Egypt etc.

For this decision responsible was Joe Biden.

Also navy removal from Black Sea, despite there ....allies not called Ukraine.

Trump and Biden doesn't have balls.
Obama acted differently despite is yelled as covard etc...
 
When Kremlin and their friends had attempted the same game they had played with Biden and are playing with pump...
Obama had installed more ships instead to run away... definitely he thus far is last real POTUS U.S had....unfortunately.
Ofc Ukr might cry and blame everyone ....and trump yell that russia had took all Georgia etc... BS....
