International Russia/Ukraine Megathread V15



Turns out that the one person hit with the grenade attack in Russia was setup via the Russian version of Grindr.

Remember the huge prisoner swap that happened recently? Turns out the Ukrainian POW's went to hospital and home and the Russian troops got loaded into Kamaz trucks and shipped right back to the front.

Well, their special contract with bonuse for special operarion is with clauses.
They simply should continue to serve till end of small special operation. Otherwise prison.
I don't think that they even can repay bonuses ...usually these are spend quickly.

So most likely if they are fit for service, then FSB/KGB etc are doing some filtration and so on...
If these consider guy as not dangerous for rus military....then ofc pragmatic choice is to sent them back ....to continue special operation....

Guys often are living in propaganda bubble and even doesn't have life experience...
For example of salary offered for such job x or y , then it is for reason higher than not long time ago....FOR a reason because bosses aren't santa claus.

Like private civilian businesses are increasing salaries offered for a reason...and thinking, calcualting a lot....if they are forced by obstacles , then are offerening more...
Private businesses are offering sign up bonuses and relocation assistance ...if they are forced by situation they have, not cos charity...
And are angry if such employee will leave soon after get hired..
Ofc with salary contracted they can't do muchm...while hiring bonuses are usually formed as some assistance, grants etc with clauses. Then at least social tax % income from employer might not get paid...cheaper..and cos these aren't salary ...might be bonus pay back clause ...if employee will left job cos something doesn't likes etc...

for exmple of employee get x " bonus " and will decide leave company earlier than 12 months after get hired etc...

__
Putin definitely will use everyone who had get signup for special operation bonuses ...
Otherwise they didn't had paid.
 
BTW deserteurs % in special operation had increased...
More than earlier.
Now a lot of guys signed up does have only $ as motivation and often had lived in rus internet info bubble. Where easy peasy enemy get destroyed. Opinions than special operation soon will end etc....
Then why not to sign up?
When they see real mines, drones etc.... they get why get bonuses...however is too late.
 
These who applied eaelier, 2022 th, 2023 th: higher % of them really ideologically well motivated....
 
Putin being accused of staging the attack on his helicopter is not surprising.

For all the talk about false flag attacks, many of them are usually BS. The Beslan school siege and Moscow theater hostage crisis both legit stink, though.
 
Derailed train in Bryansk after an explosion on a bridge happened. So far 4 dead and 40+ injured. Rus officials still haven't accused anyone. Telegram channels linked previously with Wagner have warned of Ukr DRGs entering Bryansk on May 21st.
 


Looks like some Russian Spetsnaz went up against some French special forces volunteers in Ukraine.




Germany says "Funk that noise! Putin! You're not taking ISH!"

Putin can't stop now. For him, stopping means he's going to have an accident near a tall window.


Yep. he cannot stop and there is no off ramp for him. He is prob living in a delusional world like Hitler was by 1943 ignoring realities and still thinking as long as he can keep sacrificing his people victory will eventually come.The sanctions are piling up his oi industry has been decimated . war economy is a massive cost to keep going...just a matter of time until he cant keep his war going..

Why would Russia have a man power crisis when they have so much available people?
 
Putin does care about his name in history books not inflation. Even worse: if population is poor, easier to hire next guys for small special operation.

Well let's have an avatar bet on how this ends, the last Russian shill I had a bet with he lost did change his avatar but has basically has been in hiding since his predictions like yours never came true. My next prediction is that Russia will not make it past June 1, the latest sanctions have basically crippled Russia's shit fleet tankers making Russia's oil industry a mess and that's of course the terminals that arnt on fire or being destroyed. They have a manpower shortage but at same time Putler is killing his own people at record rate before Trump get's into office.
non of that matters to you anyhow so let's have a bet i'll say Russia doesnt make it to June and if they do I'll put an avatar on of you choice for a year and vice versa if they are still invading past June 1?
Russia will make it past June 2025. Both on the battlefield and inside of Russia.
No, not an avatar change, but a "I lost a bet to San Marino" or "I lost a bet to Ruthless Ryan" for a month on your signature section. Yeah, I'll agree to that.
And yes I will take the bet....another easy win.
June 1st, 2025.
Okay Ryan, the time has come. You lose and I win. Time to change your avatar or signature for 30 days.
The Russian economy has not collapse and the Russian Army is still inside Ukraine fighting.
 
Russians in high % are imperialistic chauvinists and easy to brainwash them....

For example they are happy about their " win " in Checnya.
Actually before checen wars so called russian population in checnya was considerably more than it is now. checens are milking federal budget for infrastructure etc with a glance.
They are allowed to have businesses and shares in companies, for example in Moscow etc. From gang type speculants from 1990 ies they had turned into " businessmans " and " investors "...more than just this, some from them are in this united russia party, sitting in Duma and getting salaries from federal budget..
However majority of imperialistic nationalists prefer to ignore this....

They now mainly aren't stuff from 1990 ies era.
Now gadgets, western jeeps etc , comfort and fun is prestigious for them.
Ofc ...poor villages with high unemployment % does exist but Grozny is consumer society type stuff...
 
Russia managed to " liberate " next abadoned small village in Sumy oblastj.
Ofc due to close location to frontline fortifications was useless to build , however looks that ukr even didn't had installed enough mines...
This means that if will get order to dig in, russians easily and quickly will be able to do this...
Putin tomorrow will be happy when will get report that now russia controls 5 abadoned small villages in Sumy oblastj.
 
Ofc Ukr might dream that some stuff in Kursk oblastj might make sense for them but Putin doesn't gave f*** about Kursk oblastj.
If he will need, he might easy peasy order to use mandatory military service conscripts in Kursk oblastj. To liberate from illegal occupation etc. Without bonuses btw...

__
If about areas in Sumy and Harkov oblastj things are different: A. They are proof about long term tactique to work with thinking about decades and xxx years after this...
plus old good 1000 + years old mentality.
B. Good short term tool for noise and Lavrov office to press Ukr more....

So why not?
While any papers they value lesser than used toilet paper.

• Lavrov
& 1.0 ☆ Ukraine should look on real situation today.
Phase B.
& 2.0 ☆ Ukraine should remove their occupation forces from Zaporozia, Luhansk, Donetsk and Kherson oblastjs of Russian Federation.
3.0 Ukraine is threat for Russian Federation.
