The spin on that guy’s statement lol
This is exactly what the US Military Industrial Complex wants. Congress wants to find the perfect balance of aid to keep a sustainable revenue for their lobbyists.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Ukraine’s top commander has acknowledged that his forces are locked in a “stalemate” with Russia along a front line that has barely shifted despite months of fierce fighting, and that no significant breakthrough was imminent.
His comments marked the first time a top Ukrainian commander said the fighting had reached an impasse, although General Zaluzhny added that breaking the deadlock could require technological advances to achieve air superiority and increase the effectiveness of artillery fire.
While Ukraine was able to drive Russian forces out of nearly half of the land they seized in their initial invasion in a series of counteroffensives — surprising many military analysts — the general said “the war at the present stage is gradually moving to a positional form” where both sides can pin each other down.
In his interview and essay, General Zaluzhny pointed out that the standoff was largely the result of technological parity on the battlefield, with both sides using modern sensors to detect troops and equipment, and advanced weapons to destroy them.
Faced with Russian jamming, Ukrainian troops are often unable to mass and attack in large numbers because coordination between infantry, tanks and artillery support is so difficult without functioning communication gear.
“It’s a tactical blockage,” said Thibault Fouillet, the deputy director of the French Foundation for Strategic Research, noting that Russian and Ukrainian troops were mutually canceling each other’s air and ground capabilities.
The original article contains 1,301 words, the summary contains 233 words. Saved 82%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
That’s one way to phrase it. Another is “the nato wunderwaffes didn’t work and our offensive has failed spectacularly”
Feb 2022: Not one inch!
Today: Russia has 1/5th of Ukraine.
What a shit-show.
Da fuck are you taking about? The “win” for Ukraine the public expected was “Survive and defend Kiev”. The fact that they rolled back around half the gains Russia made since 2022 is amazing. Even a stalemate is far better that anything Russia or many on the west expected.
I have a policy to never argue with NPCs on the Ukraine-Russia war. Whatever it is you are saying, you are obviously right…
Imagining calling someone an NPC unironically.
Nearly everyone was terrified that Kiev would be taken right at the beginning. I don’t know of anyone who said not one inch. They’ve said since that they won’t concede the taken land and will fight for it. You’re so full of shit.
Read my previous comment on the subject.
No I fully understand that you are a jackass.
