Why Putin's military still hasn't taken Pokrovsk

"The achievement of blunting a major Russian offensive and denying the Russians their preferred objective for this season, is a success."

Putin's objective of taking Pokrovsk before winter has failed, George Barros from @UnderstandingWarOrg explains why on Frontline.

This war will end by exhaustion of funds rather than unit depletion.

War economies have a problem: waging a war requires infinite resources but resources are always finite.

In about a week the Euro gained about 7 roubles at the exchange.

Since the Russian government is the only entity in Russia that can exchange currency, it means that the economy is highly unstable and the goverment cannot make a reasonable budget for next year.

Excellent commentary by an intelligent young man.

Really be a great thing for Ukraine to stop them at Pokrovsk

[sarahwilliams]

Could the North Koreans be deployed into Ukraine territory; given the Putin is capable of doing that and surprise tactics shamelessly against war principles on Ukrainian soil, don't doubt Putin?

[jeanredman-roberts]

Iran, North Korea, Yeman, and China are all fingers on the same glove, strategically

Mariupol is not important. Bakhmut is not important. Avdeevka is not important. Ugledar is not important. Toretsk is not important. Yeah, Pokrovsk may not be important either.

What about Ukrainians struggling to replace there losses.

So it seems you can make progress with untrained meat waves. This is bad, sad, depressing to learn. Not sure how we in west can respond effectively to this nihilstic evil

Lol I love watching this channel for the laughs, delusional boomers coming up with their own assumptions and conclusions when they have no idea of what’s going on in the battlefield 😂

By far the best commentator on putins criminal war. We need to hear more from this fella. Credit where credits due. I don't like much about this channel but they do provide one or two excellent podcasts amongst the dross.

The Russians dismantle bit by bit that’s why.

The red line was crossed when putler launched his special 3 day special military special operation, over 1, 000 days ago

[projectedone]

Bit everywhere Ukraine is being pushed back. Suffering horrendous casualties. 900 000 dead. When is enough enough? When Ukraine has mobilized its joint and those are wiped out as well?

[taralown]

The question I have is "why suddenly are the Russians operationally got better". Please don't say, 'they've finally learned after 10 years", cause they didn't / I think China is helping them at an operational level.

Even the USA lost in Vietnam against an "inferior" opponent. Hopefully, the orcs will meet their Helm's Deep.

Remember when they used to say "the war will be over by Christmas?"
In this case it might well be true.

[robertmoyse]

This was on yesterday. How short do you think our memory is?

[jay]

LOL 😆😆 the copium is huge with this guy!🤦🤡🤡🤡

Needless to think twice once the Nation have made a plan. Set up a system which will support the plan and put the elements into the system. Make a strong decision and proceed according to the plan. The system may change and the elements may change but not the plan the Nation have made.

It's like the Pokrovsk is about to fall into Russia 🇷🇺 hands.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
