Lmao. grin grin I'm not surprised that you bought into the cheap western propaganda that Russia's recruited forces are badly trained. Even as backward as Nigeria is, it's military don't train forces poorly. cool You disappointed me. The world has since evolved beyond such level of ridiculous claims, and for you to think that the world's second highest weapon manufacturer and exporter could train and arm its forces poorly as alleged by the Western mainstream media, you could as well have said you believed the propaganda as put forward by the British intelligence and news outlets that Russian soldiers are fighting with shovels in Ukraine. grin

Several soldiers refuse to fight, it's a normal thing everywhere. Heck, during the Vietnam War when the US government was conscripting people of fighting age, thousands of Americans refused to fight, including Mohammed Ali. Many even ran away from the country into Canada and beyond. So, I don't know what the noise is here. cool

There are no 300,000+ Russian recruits in Ukraine. Stop kidding yourself. Do you think 300k forces are 3 dozens that you can hide in a classroom? The majority of that force is infantry, and they're designed to man defensive positions, to balance and stabilize the areas liberated so far. They're not part of the current Russian prong attacking forces, which is being dominated by the DPR and LPR militias, the Wagner musical group of death, and of course, an adequate number of Russian regular forces completing the list. Most of that newly recruited forces have not even tasted battle. Some of them along with Russian regular forces are stationed in Belarus and sitting comfortably behind the frontlines. These are easily verifiable information.

The LPR, DPR, and Wagner group are the ones doing most of the dirty fighting in Ukraine. The area that Russian regular troops dominate exclusively is in Sea, aviation and land standoff strikes from deep in Russian territory into targets in Ukraine. This is why the Russians have everything at their disposal to play the waiting game. cool

So you haven't heard about rotating forces? The majority of the 109k Russian forces that started this operation have been rotated out. And it's not the entire length of Ukraine that is being contested. The fighting is limited to the east, with few exceptional strikes in the western parts of the country that hasn't seen any land struggles. So, there was no immediate need to rush the entire 300k forces to the fronts assuming they have all been received and trained.

I hope you learned something new today. Piece. cool


If Russia's forces were as good as you claim, they would already have captured Ukraine since last year. If the conscripts weren't badly trained there would be no need for Wagner pmc to become the main assault force. If your army is as good you don't need PMC to assist them. The reason Wagner Pmc is certain part in Africa is cos those African nations army can't handle the allegedly terrorism.

Same Russia that even sent their forces to be trained in Belarus, when normally it is Belarus that goes to Russia for military training. Same Russia that's buying drones from Iran is the Russia you want to hype their Military๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚.

So the person fighting in Russia are the first invasion force and Wagner?? Ukraine has over 40M+ population what's 300K+? Because 300k+ people entered Ukraine from Russia, there's supposed to be an Earthquake or Tsunami or what?

So Russia has left it's goals of denazifying the entire Ukraine to just focusing on the Eastern part๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚. Truly change of plans

They already rushed most of them and it didn't affect the war significantly.

At the beginning of the War, Russia overwhelmed Ukraine and bombed the hell out of them, and were fast about it, Russia only stopped the Blitzkrieg cos they couldn't do it anymore since it was effective.

How long does it take to train the conscripts?

Good, you admitted the War is also affecting Russia. fine by me.

Russia's economy is choking, use the link in my previous post, that's an example.

And just one bank has closed down in the US in 2023, and it has nothing to do with the war in Ukraine. Russia meanwhile is defaulting on loan repayment.

Vacation spending of Russia's citizens has reduced cos of sanctions and the restrictions cos of the war, several European nations have placed visa restrictions on Russia, so where are they even traveling to?

"The economy ministry forecast GDP growth of 2% in 2024, down from 2.6% when it last provided macroeconomic forecasts in the autumn."

"The Russian economy shrank 2.1% in 2022. Before Moscow began what it calls a "special military operation" in Ukraine, the government had expected 3% growth."

This is enough evidence the sanctions are working.

The West/UK economy are stable, cos they stopped buying cheap gas from Russia has affected them, price of Gas there is high compared to previous years but it hasn't disturbed the economy. If the economy of the West/US is as bad as you think, they wouldn't be able to provide aids for Ukraine. High gas prices, Yes, but not much in everything else.

The only leverage Russia had over the US/West was the gas, now they are getting their gas from other countries, the money that would have entered Russia's economy is been spent else where at a higher price. On the gas, they have overcomed the worst.

Ukraine is Russia's match, Russia has nothing over the west, be it economy, weapon systems, training, experience, number of soldiers. West na overstretch for Russia.

If Poland enter this war on the side of Ukraine, I'd put my money on Ukraine/Poland.

And with time, You'd realize that it is the west that's holding back not Russia
