You don’t change generals when you’re winning. You only change generals when you’re losing.

Again, this line of thinking makes absolutely no sense. Gerasimov is a politically adjacent figure. He would not attach his name to the operation if he believed it was failing. If Russian leadership believed they were "losing" they would be putting a scapegoat forward.

Russia made a very tactical move and no one seems bothered. These people must have underrated Russia so bad to take this move lightly or as a joke.

Changing Surokovin was like moving the Special military operation from a low level with restriction to a general command where decision can be taken immediately without having to go through ranks.

General Gerasimov is a senior to Surokovin. Russia is gearing up for escalation.

Something westerners have largely failed to grasp:

US dictated terms at Bretton Woods in 1944 because they, by their design, became WW2 creditor nation.

Fast forward 78 years and US is now the bankrupt nation with China its biggest creditor.

Claims that Russia has sent senior commanders to Belarus.

Increasingly looking like Russia may open up a second front in the North and West via Belarus presumably to seek to cut off supply lines to the South and East of Ukraine.

"The SMO in Ukraine will end only when its goals are achieved, whether through negotiations or military means.
Ukraine has turned into a NATO-owned private military company that is paid money, given weapons, and told where to shoot." Russia's representative to the UN, V.Nebenzya

Westerners need to understand what's going on. Russia is not running out of missiles.

The only one close to what this change mean..

Despite that being close.. if Russia is preparing for an offensive, no one will know.. Even General Armageddon, Surovikin as it stands now may not know.

This is where you got it wrong.
I can assure you they're shitting on their pants.
They're all acting tough including their masters so that the morale of the soldiers won't drop.
This war is about to escalate because the general appointed is the highest ranking general when it comes to physical warfare, he would not want to appear weak or slow in destructive decision making because the west will increase their level of criticism and Russia will be called bluff. This is what Russia will not want.
So in the next few weeks or months expect the largest package of the war from the west, which will include helicopters, fighter jets and many weapons that are yet to be introduced since the beginning of this war.

The west planned this all wrong.
And the funny part is they can't withdraw their support because the world have seen that they're using Ukraine to achieve their objectives. Hence you see anytime Ukraine need something they always provide it, sometimes it takes months but they always provide it for them.

It is already happening. US budget billions of dollars for Ukraine war in their 2023 defense budget... Same goes for UK.

France, Germany and other allies are being pressure to to send more weapons to Ukraine.

The funniest thing is that, maybe not actually funny but scary.. Is that at the end of this war someone's Ego will be fully diminished. Either the US or Russia.

That's the gain and lost of this war.
If the west wins this war: it is over for Russia and if Russia win this war: it is over for the west.
The common man see it as war and people are dieing, but the decision makers see it as the greatest investment in their country's history.

The funny part is if Russia win this war, the collective west and their efforts will not survive the shame and disgrace.

I pity Ukraine
