At this point, this talk about what ground was captured or not is pointless. Russia is many times more powerful than Ukraine, of course, it will win the war. However, I just can't see how the world after this war would be more advantageous for Russia. I just don't see it. Does Putin have some ace up his sleeve that we don't know about or has he really gone nuts?

I gotta give it to the Western media and Ukrainian supporters . They have shamelessly propagate and peddled fake news like never before in the history .
Most of the videos are outright fake or exaggerated to say the least.
Western media created the fake news such as a 40 mile Russian convoy, which was once attacking Kiev , then bogged down , then ran out of fuel, then soldiers deserted and finally ambushed by the brave Ukrainians. The entire story is so outlandish and stupid that any one with an ounce of brain will not be able to stop shaking their heads in disbelief.
Western media deliberately created the hype that Russians are unable to take Kiev as if it was supposed to be a walk in the park. Ukraine had a large professional and well armed army. They are equally armed and trained as the Russians except they cannot match Russians in number . Ofcourse they were going to fight to death their equally trained and qualitatively equal army.
Why wouldn’t they ?
So the expectation Russia was to win the war in few days was a deliberate misinformation to create the sense that Russians are stalled and loosing.
They are neither stalled nor loosing. They are deliberately and methodically moving and capturing area. Their goal is not to just capture the territory but to destroy and disarm Ukrainian army infrastructure . That they are doing well and moving slowly in the process .
Yes in some places they are stalled but that is totally expected from a well armed enemy that is determined to defend their homeland .
The end is not in doubt. The question is how much Russians will destroy …. Both the military and civilian …. To teach their enemy a lesson.

Ukrainian resistance seems to be on the brink of collapse. It may not last more than a week or two. If Kiev falls then its game over.
If the larger cities to the east and south falls first then Russian units will be freed and redirected towards north (Kiev) and west i believe.
Russia is likely to take the control of the whole area between Transnistria and Russia/Ukraine border. IMO also likely to take west Ukraine to the Polish border but that is probably not priority ATM.

i hate Russians for what they did in Syria but I simply cannot believe the clown PM of Ukrainians who single handedly destroyed the entire country just because he wanted to join NATO…….
Perhaps he was too busy to watch Tv and see what Americans did to their Afghan allies just few months back……
What a bloody looser….

It seems like the West has gone bananas. They've raised tensions so high that now the public is demanding military action from NATO. The Canadian PM, Trudeau, had to go out of his way to explain why a No Fly Zone wasn't a good idea.
Western politicians have painted themselves into a corner. To stay in power they have to appear tough. To appear tough they have to keep adding more and more pressure on Russia. There's already a witch hunt going on against Russians. How long before Russians are rounded up in concentration camps?
All these announcements about delivering weapons and mercenaries to Ukraine. Do they think that Russians don't watch the news? That's practically a declaration of war. A cornered animal is dangerous.
Whatever happens now, whoever wins, the time to Armageddon has been reduced drastically. There will now be an all-out race by everyone to acquire weapons, including nuclear, and then there will be the final showdown, sooner rather than later.

He wanted to join NATO to prevent exactly that scenario . . .
And if he was in NATO this invasion would most likely would not have happened . . .

I've seen US and Canadian soldiers that speak English like Pablo Escobar in the movies. Even higher ranking ones.
