You don't understand how bad the war has gotten for Russia.

https://www.kyivpost.com/post/16777

This is a link just to have an insight of the problems Russians in Russia are in as a result of the war. The war is affecting Home, then understand you'd why Russia lying about how the war is going. They are struggling but have invested too much.


"A renowned Russian businessman and entertainer has published an extraordinary video, bemoaning that something is going very wrong with Vladimir Putin’s “special operation” in Ukraine."

Speaking on May 6, Andrey Kovalev, co-chairman of the Moscow Council of Entrepreneurs and founder of the All-Russian Movement of Entrepreneurs, lists some of the many military failures suffered by Russia over the last year before complaining about his country’s tanking economy. The video is there

The "partial" mobilization came out Sept, by October Russia's ministry of defence claimed most of the conscripts has reported to camp. so since October, till now you believe they are still training when the mobilization was done in an emergency as a result of Ukraine's successful counter attacks. [\quote]

Who is arguing that the SMO hasn't affected Russia? Heck, its affecting the whole world as we speak. It's one of the reasons we have spiking inflation. But, if you think or believe that ordinary Russians or the Russian economy is suffocating because of this war, then I'm sorry to say that the west have sold you a Mountain Everest for bread. cool

Banks are not closing in Russia. Inflation have stabilize across the country. Vacation spending capacity of ordinary Russians have not shifted one bit. Despite being the most sanctioned country in the world, the world bank has forecasted the Russian economy to grow by 2% this year? grin What's more? The damn Russians even have enough money to rebuild destroyed and liberated cities like Mariupol and Severeskdonetsk at such short notice despite still fighting an ongoing war with virtually the whole of NATO.

Can you boldly say the same about the collective west? cheesy.

Major banks are already closing in the US with the government rushing to bail out others to prevent them from failing. People are now withdrawing their monies from banks in the west fearing a repeat of 2008 recession disaster. Inflation has become a horse across the west, galloping away like a runaway Usain Bolt. From tissue papers to baby foods to eggs to gasoline to bread, everything has increased by 40% or more across the west. These are the price and reward of those who places sanctions on Russia. cool.

Brother, this is reality, not Hollywood. The west are just realizing that Russia is too big a force to gang rape. cool

[quite]Here is another link how badly trained those 300K+ were trained and went sent to the war
https://english.alarabiya.net/News/world/2023/01/12/Russian-soldier-jailed-for-five-years-for-refusing-to-fight-in-Ukraine-

Russia has committed the 300K+ in Ukraine already, why do you think Ukraine is going on the counter now? So according to you, the first 100K+ (You want to invade a country with over 40M population o) are still the ones fighting until now? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Here is another link of Russians conscripts complaining about inadequate training and are already fighting
https://meduza.io/en/feature/2023/03/09/sent-there-to-be-meat

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

it's not about recognizing or designating it as whatever, the question is, what are they gonna do about it? LoL. These people think Wagner is like Taliban that hides. Wagner is moving freely in Mali and some African countries. I'm yet to see anyone of them have the balls to do anything to them over here in Africa. Good luck targeting Wagner troops anywhere without getting some amount of dosage in return.

⚡️🇷🇺 Ex-Russian Space Boss Finds 'No Proof' Americans Landed On Moon In 1969.

Russia's former head of the Roscosmos space agency, Dmitry Rogozin, said he went on a quest about a decade ago to find concrete proof that the 🇺🇸 Americans landed on the Moon in 1969. After finding little evidence, he questioned whether the Apollo 11 Mission reached the lunar surface.

"About ten years ago, when I worked in the Government, I sent an official request to Roscosmos to provide me with documentary evidence of the 🇺🇸 Americans' stay on the moon, which at that time was still at the disposal of the federal agency," Rogozin said in a post on Telegram on Sunday.

He continued, "I was painfully embarrassed by the fact that the 🇷🇺 Soviet cosmonauts returning from multi-day expeditions could barely stand on their feet and underwent a long recovery after such flights, and the Americans crawled out of their lunar ships like cucumbers from the garden."
