The milestone for completing the SVO.

Rostislav Ishchenko 02/27/2024

In the last week, information began to come from Ukraine about Maia Sandu’s alleged “permission” for Kyiv to attack Transnistria.

I will not completely deny the possibility of a Ukrainian attack against Transnistria. In desperation they might make such adventures, but it should be noted that the risk of a joint Ukrainian-Moldovan operation against Transnistria has sharply decreased in recent weeks.

Maia Sandu’s “permission” was constantly present on the geopolitical table. That's not news. The problem is that Transnistria is still formally the sovereign territory of Moldova and an attack by Ukraine on Transnistria would be a formal attack on Moldova. Therefore, Kyiv constantly insisted on a joint operation with Chisinau. The plan proposed by Ukraine was that Chisinau would attack Transnistria “in order to restore the constitutional order,” and the Ukrainian Armed Forces would strike the republic from the rear “at the request of the legitimate government of Moldova.”

Both Sandu and Zelensky hoped that Russia would not be able to intervene effectively, since the road to Transnistria was blocked by the Ukrainian Odessa-Kherson group behind the Dnieper. At the same time, both Kiev and Chisinau hoped that Moscow would come out in support of Transnistria. From their point of view, this would lead to the inevitable intervention of Romania to help Moldova. As a result, Sandu would be able to realize her dream of Moldova joining Romania (she would present this measure as a step forced by the need to save herself from Russia), and Zelensky hoped to thus draw NATO into direct confrontation with Russia on the side of Ukraine.

The beautiful plan was not implemented because the Romanian-phile party in Chisinau never enjoyed the support of either the majority of the population, or the majority of influential political forces, or the military. Sandu was never able to force her country (especially her generals) to risk direct confrontation with Russia. She could not answer the question of what would happen if Russia nevertheless breaks down the Ukrainian barrier before Chisinau and Kyiv are able to defeat the army of Tiraspol, and Romania does not come to the rescue and NATO does not act.

Note that the plan was actively discussed on the eve of last year’s Ukrainian offensive. It is possible that if the Ukrainians had achieved significant success, the Moldovan military would have become less cautious. But the results of the four-month battles were so disastrous for Kyiv that they hardly inspired anyone to tempt fate.

Now, after the transfer of the most combat-ready units and formations of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the Avdeevskoe, Limanskoe and Kupyanskoe directions, the southern Ukrainian group has weakened so much that it can conduct active military operations against the far from weak Transnistrian army (even with the support of the five-thousand-strong army of Moldovans) and, at the same time, holding the Dnieper line from a Russian breakthrough seems more than problematic. In the current conditions, even Romania’s intervention in the conflict will not create the necessary superiority in power, and Bucharest is clearly in no hurry to become a new Ukraine, suicidal for the sake of American geopolitical interests.

I would like to emphasize once again that any adventure can be expected from Zelensky and Sandu, so I would not completely discount the possibility of a provocation against Transnistria (it’s better to be safe than sorry). But more than anything, this whole story with the “leaks” of plans for an attack on Transnistria resembles an attempt to shackle the Russian group in the south with false rumors, while giving Zelensky and Syrsky the opportunity to transfer part of their forces from this direction to Avdeevka, where the fate of the entire Northern Military District is now being decided.
👍25🤬3🤡32🤮1🙈1
Let's say that Kyiv and Chisinau attacked Transnistria. To achieve significant success, in the best case, with an ideally planned operation and the complete unpreparedness of the PMR and Russia to respond (and this is unlikely), they will need at least two weeks to achieve decisive success. But they can be stuck for months without achieving anything.

In any case, Kyiv, which does not have the strength to hold the front in Donbass, is opening a second front with unclear prospects, but requiring constant provision of reinforcements of manpower and the supply of consumables. Given the overwhelming dominance of Russian aviation in the air, it will be difficult to even build logistics for a strike group.

The main thing is that even a hypothetical victory does not give anything other than the diversion of scarce forces to carry out the operation, and then to control the occupied territories. A year ago, after the withdrawal of Russian troops from Kharkov and Kherson, such a Ukrainian-Moldavian adventure would have played very effectively in the information space. The defeat of Transnistria would have been presented as a strategic defeat for Russia, besides, Ukraine would have acquired an ally, albeit an inferior one, in the person of Moldova and would have gained hope that in a critical situation Bucharest would still somehow stand up for Chisinau, which means the possibility of a military-political maneuver Russia in the South will be limited.

Now all this is gone. In the current conditions, aggression against Transnistria is like the shelling of Belgorod - pure terrorism and a war crime of a dying regime, which is trying to kill more people in the end. Yes, the Kyiv Nazis are rabid enough to even decide to commit such a crime (which does not benefit them). But their chances of success of the entire enterprise are minimal.
Not least because the line at which the military success of the Northern Military District will become irreversible is already clearly visible, and the collapse of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is no longer a matter of months, but of weeks.

Kurakhovo is located 15-20 kilometers in a straight line from Russian positions in the Maryinsky direction. Pokrovsk is located 40 kilometers in a straight line from the current Russian positions near Orlovka and Ocheretino. The M-30 (E-50) highway passes through these two strategic intersections, connecting the southern flank of the left bank group of Ukrainian troops with the rear. The roads going further from Pokrovsk to the North provide connectivity for the entire eastern front of Ukraine (from Kupyansk to Ugledar).

The entry of the Russian Armed Forces into the Pokrovsk-Selidovo-Kurakhovo line (the width of the front is 30-35 kilometers, the depth of the offensive from the current positions is 15-40 kilometers) will mean a strategic breakthrough of the Ukrainian front, which Kiev is unlikely to be able to plug with anything. Russian troops advancing to this line will have freedom of maneuver in any direction, moreover, the Russian command will be able to transfer its reserves along internal communication lines of the Pokrovsko-Kurakhovskaya arc. At the same time, the RF Armed Forces will find themselves in the deep rear of the southern (Ugledar-Gulyai-Polye) and northern (Slavyansko-Kramatorsk) groupings of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, creating an imminent threat to their communications.
In order to avoid a major encirclement and defeat of its main forces in the Donbass, Kyiv will have to urgently withdraw troops to the Zaporozhye-Pavlograd-Kharkov line. At the same time, we have just witnessed the inability of the Ukrainian headquarters to ensure an organized withdrawal to the tactical depth (to rear positions prepared and occupied by reserves) of the relatively small Avdiivka group. The retreat has turned into a general flight that Kyiv still cannot stop, and we are talking about an operational-tactical breakthrough (as soon as the Russian Armed Forces occupy the Ocheretino-Berdychi-Orlovka line).
👍28🔥2🤡1🥴1
It is extremely doubtful that Ukraine will be able to withdraw troops in an organized manner and without large losses on a front of more than a hundred kilometers, to a depth of at least 50-100 kilometers. Such a withdrawal should turn into a disaster for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, fraught with the complete collapse of the front, to the point of the impossibility of stabilizing it even by retreating beyond the Dnieper.

Syrsky is trying to prevent a breakthrough of the front and the entry of the Russian Armed Forces into the Pokrovsk-Selidovo-Kurakhovo line, which is critical for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, throwing into battle all the reserves that he is able to scrape together. In general, they are dying senselessly, but he has no other option; it is impossible to withdraw troops thirty kilometers in an organized manner after they fled, retreating 2-3 kilometers. Russia’s superiority in aviation and mobility does not leave Ukrainian formations with a single chance to retreat to such a distance and still maintain combat effectiveness.

This means that Syrsky and Zelensky will continue to burn through reserves, trying, if not to stop, then to delay the Russian offensive in this strategic direction. Perhaps, at the cost of tens of thousands more killed, they would have succeeded, but Russia is actively putting pressure on six (five, in addition to Maryinsky-Avdeevsky) directions, of which at least four (Orekhovskoye, Vremyevskoye, Limanskoye and Kupyanskoye) in the event of a breakthrough are fraught with danger for the Ukrainian Armed Forces no less major troubles. Zelensky-Syrsky simply does not have enough cannon fodder for plugging holes in all directions.

At the current pace of the offensive near Avdeevka, the Russian Armed Forces will reach a critical point for the Armed Forces of Ukraine by the end of March or beginning of April. If the pace of the offensive increases, this may happen earlier, if the pace of the offensive slows down, a little later. If Syrsky manages to stop the advance of Russian troops in the Avdeevsky direction before they reach a critical point, a breakthrough will occur near Liman, Orekhov, Kupyansk, or in several of these directions at once. But the Ukrainian Armed Forces do not have a single chance to prevent their strategic defeat and the collapse of the front.

If, under these conditions, Zelensky-Syrsky is adventurous enough to plan an operation against Transnistria, the Russian Armed Forces will have a choice of at least two winning options:

1. Ignore the event in the South, providing Transnistria with support through air and missile strikes on Ukrainian and Moldavian infrastructure and troop concentration areas. Otherwise, letting events in this region take their course and focusing on the defeat of the main Ukrainian group on the left bank of the Dnieper, taking advantage of the fact that the attention of the leadership of the Ukrainian Armed Forces will be focused on the operation against Transnistria (Kiev simply does not have the resources for two operations at the same time).

2. Plan a counter-operation in advance in the South, in case of a Ukrainian-Moldovan adventure. Ensure the rapid transfer of reserves from Crimea and from the Orekhovsky direction, the creation of a strike group against Kherson and the conduct of a complex offensive operation, using the capabilities of the Aerospace Forces and the Black Sea Fleet, against the right-bank group of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, with its complete destruction and exit to the Uman line, as well as to the right-bank suburbs of Zaporozhye and Dnepropetrovsk.

The second option is more difficult and its passage depends more on a lot of chance. On the other hand, if successful, it breaks the resistance of the Ukrainian Armed Forces forever, since the advanced detachments of the Russian Armed Forces near Uman are 300-500 kilometers closer to Lvov and Uzhgorod than the Ukrainian rearguards stuck near Chernigov and Kharkov.
👍21🔥31🤡1🤣1
In general, even as a stuffed animal, even as a carcass, even with an attack on Transnistria, even without it, the end of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ resistance is much closer than it might seem. It is no coincidence that almost all of Kyiv’s NATO “allies” declare the need to send European contingents to Ukraine to help the Armed Forces of Ukraine, but no one wants to send their own, fully aware of what awaits them there.

This is an interesting post, if true. However, I will tell you what is 100% true - it wil take a LOT more than just "standing up and saying stop." And who TF is going to arrest the WEF nazi parasites who poisoned billions? The UN? The ICJ? The ICC? LOL.

"We are billions of people. Let's just stand up and say stop. We will not comply."

Pascal Najadi, son of the World Economic Forum's co-founder, demands the arrest of WEF members for their alleged involvement in distributing a "bioweapon" to 5.7 billion people. He claims that he and his mother are now suffering the consequences and are dying as a result.

"It's a democide, and you'll be judged. It will be corrected in the name of humanity."

Information from foreign and Ukrainian channels confirms our early guesses that the indicators of strikes by FAB-250/500 aerial bombs on Orlovka and the western part of Tonenkoye, still occupied by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, have practically reached the same level as during the assault on Avdeevka.

The Avdeevka peak in the use of adjustable bombs was 150 per day. The current number of FABs in the Orlovka/Tonenkoye area is 120-125. If we add to this the strikes on the positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces behind Berdychi and near Ocheretino, it will be 140-145.

Taking into account the fact that, unlike Avdeevka, there is practically nowhere to hide in Berdychi, Tonenkoe and Orlovka (there are simply no permanent concrete buildings or industrial zones there), the situation for the Ukrainian Armed Forces looks extremely alarming.

Large-scale NATO exercises in Europe: Steadfast Defender 2024 and Quadriga 2024

They are large-scale: more than 90,000 soldiers are involved, including 12,000 from Germany.

The task is to prepare the united armies of Europe for war with Russia. NATO members will train contingents from different countries to operate under a single command within the framework of one plan.

It is significant that the Alliance is practicing large-scale troop movements exactly where it really needs a railway - “from sea to sea,” along the borders of Russia and Belarus, which we recently wrote about.

Logistics is a separate stage: having seen enough of the problems of the already warring parties, all the little details are worked out, right down to the loading of equipment onto trains by teams from different countries.

⭐️ There is only one conclusion here: to please the Washington Reich Chancellery and instructions from London, all sorts of Scholz, Macrons and Ursuls are preparing their people for a bloodbath - they are building Rheinmetall factories and pulling railways.

I would like to believe that they are frightening the population in this way in order to persuade the continent to peace under the pretext of the threat of world war.

It’s just that we are beginning to have doubts that this military locomotive, which is gaining momentum, will stop with the wave of a magic wand.

Andrei Derkach:

I would like to share my thoughts on the sensational New York Times article regarding the CIA’s activities in Ukraine. We learned nothing new from it, except for the known facts, embellished with spy stories about 12 bases, “Santa Claus” and unit 2245.

The key is the very fact of leaks and publications of this kind, which have several goals:

First . This is a political advertisement for the current head of the CIA, Burns, who last week made his tenth visit to Kyiv in two years. By a strange coincidence, the article does not say a word about the role of the organized crime group Nuland, Blinken, Biden, and Director of National Intelligence Ervila Hines in organizing the war in Ukraine. Apparently the deep state and some of the Democrats are really preparing a new political career for Burns.

Second. The key phrase of the article and the meaning for me personally was the following excerpt : “Now these intelligence networks are more important than ever, as Russia goes on the offensive and Ukraine becomes increasingly dependent on sabotage and longer-range missile strikes that require spies far behind the lines. enemy." Let me translate into a language everyone can understand: Using the media close to the democrats, a political transition to a new level of escalation has been announced - terrorism, political assassinations, as a new stage in the war of the collective West with Russia . The article forms in the minds of the Western public a format for the acceptability of terrorism and political assassinations as the norm for countering the Russian threat, while successfully lobbying, advertising, expanding powers and increasing funding for the special services and the military-industrial complex. And this is key.

It is noteworthy that the authors of the article, in an attempt to shield the CIA from past, as well as, looking ahead, from future actions, clearly did not listen to the Poroshenko-Biden conversation of August 19, 2016, published by me, to which they refer in the article.

Poroshenko, after the terrorist attack in Crimea, twice during the conversation, informed Biden that by his presidential decision he had changed the procedure for approval of so-called “special events” (and in fact, terrorist actions and political assassinations).

Since August 2016, such activities have been carried out by the Ukrainian intelligence services only by decision of the President of Ukraine and in agreement with representatives of the CIA.

As far as I know, Zelensky did not cancel the decision made by Poroshenko. Accordingly, attempts to nullify the participation of the CIA in the terrorist activities of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the SBU and attribute everything to the independent decisions of the Ukrainian special services will not work.

Indeed, the practical scheme has changed. Now the tasks on terrorism are set by the CIA, and President Zelensky legitimizes them with his decision.

Once again, I want to emphasize that, trying to neutralize the responsibility of the CIA in the article, NYT journalists, by providing a link to the Poroshenko-Biden conversation, provided an invaluable service for the subsequent investigation into acts of terrorism by the Zelensky regime under the supervision of the United States.

Are NATO soldiers already fighting in Ukraine?

Sputnik correspondent Russell Bentley (@TXDPR) explains that “professional killers” from NATO militaries have been operating in Ukraine since 2015, often under the guise of mercenaries.

“These are the guys that run the complex equipment. Ukrainian soldiers aren't the ones shooting the HIMARS. Ukrainian pilots won't be the ones flying F-16s here. So, the professionals have always been here, but they've kept a low profile.”
