Zelensky: Ukraine facing 'new stage' in war as Russia preparing to expand offensive
The Kyiv Independent ^ | May 3, 2024 | Kateryna Denisova

Ukraine is facing "a new stage" in the Russia's full-scale war, President Volodymyr Zelensky said during a meeting with border guards in Khmelnytskyi Oblast on May 3.

Zelensky's statement came amid a deteriorating situation on the battlefield. Kyrylo Budanov, the chief of Ukraine's military intelligence (HUR), said that Ukraine should expect to face a renewed Russian offensive in late spring or early summer, with the offensive intensifying around eastern Donbas region.

"The occupier is now preparing to expand its offensive. And all of us — Ukrainians, soldiers, state, partners — must do everything to disrupt Russia's offensive plan," Zelensky said.

The ground is now hard enough to accommodate heavy equipment on BOTH sides.

So apparently the mighty Russians with a population of about 146 million can’t defeat a country with a population of about 36 million. I wonder if our DEI Army would have as much trouble ... or maybe even more

I don’t see any reason for Russia to negotiate.
———-
Exactly, everyday Vlad further depletes the western welfare payments, arms, ammo and most importantly manpower…almost comical: what the collective West conspired to do to Vlad is happening to them.

Vlad holds all the cards, and there still is nothing the West can do about it…..
Everyday the West depletes itself and goes further into bankruptcy, while Vlad gets stronger and lines his pockets with more cash. So, so easy to see how this ends.

If you disagree, why does Ukraine keep begging the world for money and equipment? We regularly send them billions of dollars every few weeks. If Russia is doing so poorly, why does Ukraine need a constant supply of basically everything?

Limited wars are the hardest to win. The USA has a long string of defeats over the last 8 decades. But Russia is defeating Ukraine and even Ukrainian supporters in-country are saying it’s over and we are now in the denial/waste part of the typical progression. Without NATO/EURO/USA this war would have been over very quickly. Russia is defeating much more than Ukraine.

Wow that’s a really stupid argument.

There’s a war with a superpower.
Ukraine is not a major and producer.
Even Russia is relying on weapons from North Korea and Iran!

Asking me why Ukraine needs stuff, if Russia has had a difficult time in this war, it’s idiotic.

Russia is not doing well because it’s more than two years and they are still fighting friggin Ukraine.

Excuse me, your other liars on here keep saying Putin is going easy on Ukraine because he wants to negotiate peace.

So, which lie are you going with this week?

You think Putin was waiting for a better deal from Trump?
He already stated he prefers Biden.
Trump does not take any crap from Putin.

If Putin is not willing to talk, Trump will do more to help Ukraine. We have 3,700 Abrams tanks in storage. Why not give all of them to Ukraine? Trump will do that.

On one hand you say

“Russia is not doing well because it’s more than two years and they are still fighting friggin Ukraine.”
Indicating Ruzzia is weak

Then two posts down you say

“I just wonder who are the sick pos on here who cheer (delusionally) the supposed defeat of the West.”
Then you indicate Ruzzia is strong enough to defeat the West.

You are a confused, delusional neocon.

Seek help.

LOL! Exactly!!!
It’s a constant back and forth on every damn thread.
Wish they would make up their minds.
Always fun to read for a good laugh. 😆
