[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The war has certainly gone worse for Putin than he expected, but the military is making some progress. They’ve taken at least 4 cities in southern Ukraine and one in the northeast. They’ve surrounded Mariupol, Kharkiv, and Sumy — all strategically important cities. They’re getting closer to Kyiv.

In a war of attrition, Russia has the clear advantage. [/quote]

They do in regards to Ukraine.  Although the Ukrainians will bleed them dry.  They cannot control the country or the people.  They can only kill them.  There is no end game militarily except total annihilation.  They have unified Ukraine just as they have unified the developed world.  Even the Russian speaking parts hate them now.

They do not in terms of themselves.  The internal pressure is getting worse.  The internal paranoia has set in.  The economic sanctions are going to decimate their economy.  Globally they wil be reduced to nothing more than an indentured servant to China if they continue.  The window to escape that fate is rapidly closing.  The developed world doesn't need what they have.  Their oil is available in Venezuela, Iran, Mexico and Canada.  Their bauxite (aluminum) in Australia and Guinea.  Nickel in Indonesia.  American farmers can switch back to wheat from corn.  Their gas from the US and Qatar.  Everything they have can be found elsewhere.  Once the market switches to those sources it won't look back.

At home, as long as Putin retains the loyalty of the security services and military, he will remain in power. That’s really the only thing that matters at the end of the day. [/quote]

He doesn't have it.  The purges have started.[/quote]

Citation, please.[/quote]

Look for yourself.  The FSB was raided today.  The military had generals sacked yesterday.  [/quote]

That’s just Twitter. May or may not be true. [/quote]

No.  It came with an alleged reason, corruption, and everything.  Good luck.  Stay safe.[/quote]

It came from a pro -Russian telegram channel to be specific.

But here's some tweets.  With bonus FSB analyst leaks as well

I’ll wait until that’s covered by an actual news source.[/quote]

It is silly, meduza.

It's also not the sort of info that tends to be psyops.  Why you'd feel the need to discredit is confusing.  It doesn't matter to us here or even Ukrainians.  That news is only important to those in the FSB, and in that case it's something one might want to check on themself.

Why would Russia intentionally leak information that makes them look like incompetent buffoons?  Especially when that info is so consistent with everything people are seeing on the ground and elsewhere?[/quote]
