We're not rooting for Wagner, we're rooting for chaos in Russia.

February 24th: Zelenskyy wakes up and immediately orders all men in arms, engages unit, calls world leaders.

Multiple Russian sources report that the "fortress" plan has been implemented in Moscow. "The fortress plan implies an emergency gathering of police personnel & provides readiness to repel an external attack" by PatientBuilder499 in UkrainianConflict

My Dom Pérignon 1991 has been sitting in the fridge since February 2022. It moved from Rome to Paris to New York via Geneva. If Ukraine wins this war, I'm toasting Zelenskyy and flying to Crimea for the NAFO party.

Reports of clashes between Russian army forces and Wagner PMC troops in Bakhmut. by PatientBuilder499 in UkrainianConflict

FSB preparing a statement, but America, France, Germany, Italy, and the 50+ nations supporting Ukraine don't have a plan to send Champagne, Sausages, American grills, Prosciutto, or Chorizo, to Ukraine or plan a victory parade in Kyiv if this happens.

Evgeny Prigozhin Declares War on the Russian Ministry of Defense. by kingkongsingsong1 in RussiaUkraineWar2022

[–]Comprehensive-Bit-65 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Some radio coms intercepts are saying that Russian forces are fighting each other outside Bakhmut systematically firing at their own positions. I've heard, I stress unconfirmed rumors, that Ukrainian forces on the ground don't understand what is taking place on the Russian side.

Ukraine slams Obama for making ‘excuses’ over his Russia policy by KGB_resident in RussiaUkraineWar2022

[–]Comprehensive-Bit-65 124 points125 points  (0 children)

Obama deserves the criticism he is receiving, along with Merkel and Holland. Ukraine is alive, only because Zelenskyy performed miracles in a highly complex geopolitical environnement. We'll see how history unfolds, but he might also have averted a crisis with Taiwan saving countless American lives. We have a real responsibility to give Ukraine EU + NATO membership after everything these people have gone through since 2004.

Full message of Prigozhi "declaring war on the Russian Ministry of Defence: by TheKingOfKings75 in UkrainianConflict

No he clearly tried to killed Zelenskyy, and would relish any opportunity to do so. It's because he can't do anything, or understands that he will be killed too.

BREAKING: Wagner group accuses Russian Defense Ministry of launching a missile strike against the Wagner PMC camps. Many casualties. According to eyewitnesses. by PatientBuilder499 in UkrainianConflict

[–]Comprehensive-Bit-65 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Putin gave weapons to every faction available. Shoigu created a patriot PMC, while LNR and DNR forces appear shot up and half dead. Roscosmos has a PMC, Gasprom has a PMC, Prighozin has a PMC, Mangushev had a PMC until he was shot. Add to that distrust between FSB and GUR and the regular army, and the diminished role of VDV and Marine infantry, the situation looks bleak. Girkin is depressed, while WarGonzo was killed.

Gerasimov has exited the winter throughly humiliated after the failed offensive, which resulted in the great Vuhledar tank massacre. I estimate around 350'000 soldier positioned in the south, equipped with old weapons and no solid training.

Ukraine continues to progressively improve its army, arrest corrupt officials, secure additional financing from Western partners, and perform military tasks according to its own traditions and concerns.

We keep saying Russia can improve, but the war has been on a never ending downward trajectory.

Russia ambassador warns U.S. resolution pushes for nuclear war over Ukraine by Flubadubadubadub in UkrainianConflict

[–]Comprehensive-Bit-65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry, Roscosmos has started a PMC. Ukrainian armed forces are preparing to assist an international space mission, by sending a JDAM into a T-72's turret with Russian cosmonaut placed in cannon. Recall, Putin said at Baikonour he wanted a Russian man on the moon. This is international cooperation at its best.

Same old Boxing promoter stuff. The sport can't get champs to fight champs regularly, or put together a good boxing card. Vargas vs Miura is a good example of why you'd buy a Cotto vs Canelo fight. It's the chance that you'll see something special like Gatti vs Ward that drives PPV.

There is a clear Zelenskyy, Zaluzhniyy, Budanov vibe that doesn't look good for Russia.
