Results of the Year of Struggle

Ukrainian Nationalists warned the government and society about the full-scale attack of the Russian Federation, conducted training sessions throughout Ukraine, and independently prepared for a full-scale war. It is a pity that the authorities did not hear us then and had to mobilize during the hottest phase of the war.

The enemy expected that the Armed Forces of Ukraine would collapse, that most of the officers would switch to the side of the Russian Federation or remain neutral, and that the East and South would welcome Russian tanks with flowers in their hands. Instead, the people and the army rallied around the preservation of our statehood like never before.

Azov, a volunteer unit formed by Ukrainian Nationalists in 2014, which independently transitioned to the NATO system in 2016, showed the world that ideological motivation and professionalism can compensate for the lack of modern weapons and numerical superiority of the enemy in many ways. The defense of Mariupol in 2022 entered Ukrainian and world military history as an example of heroism and military resilience.

We have seen that Putin's goal is not denazification, but the de-Ukrainization of Ukraine - the destruction of both its people and their culture, economy, infrastructure, and literal burning of the land. This is a war for the very survival of the Ukrainian people, and at the same time, a war that will determine the future of the whole world. Bucha and Irpin have shown the true face of the "liberators" and the Russian world.

The successful defense of Kyiv and Kharkiv, victory in the North, counteroffensive in Kharkiv and Kherson regions have shown that we are capable not only of restraining the numerically superior enemy but also of defeating them. The inexhaustible motivation for the liberation of our homeland, reinforced by Western weaponry, has put the "2nd army in the world" face to face with the real prospect of complete defeat in the war in Ukraine. The speed and quantity of arms provided by the West will determine the final realization of this perspective.

Over the past year of the war, the Azov movement has been supplemented by 4 new units - the 3rd separate assault brigade "Kraken", the "Lyubart" special operations detachment, and the "Azov-Kharkiv" and Lyubart detachments. The Azov Special Operations Regiment was finally expanded into a brigade, and the MVS "East" special unit proved its professionalism in combat. They all showed themselves on the front lines in the best possible way. As in 2014, volunteers supported the army in the most difficult moments and joined the ranks of various military structures.

The year 2023 will be difficult and not necessarily a final victory, but it could be a turning point in the war. The annual experience accumulated by the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in battles with the Russian army is invaluable, which, combined with the supply of Western offensive weapons, opens up horizons for new operations to de-occupy Luhansk, Donetsk, and possibly Crimea.

The Western world has finally realized the inability of Putin's Russia to compromise - a peace agreement, Putin-style, means Russian tanks in Lviv and Odessa. Putin aims for the capitulation of Ukraine and the humiliation of the West. Therefore, the West will be forced to support us to a victorious end. Because in the event of our defeat, the next victims of Kremlin aggression will be the countries of the Baltics and Poland, which on Russian television are already being brought back to the Stone Age with imaginary missile strikes.

“We need to keep beating this drum, regardless if we see red-state secession as an end in itself or merely the first step towards a viable white ethnostate. Either outcome would be an improvement to what we have today. MTG is tripling down, and so should we.”

I couldn’t have put it better myself.

I found it kind of odd to see some on the right countersignaling this woman a few days ago over “National Divorce”.

I think it has to do with:

1. The messenger (MTG) is almost universally unpopular on the radical Right, especially among the Groypers.

2. National Divorce seems to be the least popular option for what happens if we win.

———

It was really weird seeing the types calling for Imperium or monarchy talk about National Divorce being a delusion fantasy or fairy tale. Even though, aside from defacto regional secession, it’s obviously the most realistic.

“Do you really think they’re just going to let us leave?”

Is like asking:

“Uh, do you really think they’re just going to let us take power?”

If this is the attitude then why do anything? Lol just give up.

That’s essentially the question being asked. National Divorce, like reconquest/secession/imperium etc. is simply a strategy for gaining power.

Whenever any mainstream voice signal boosts these ideas, it’s a good thing. Even if you don’t like the messenger.
