As I predicted: "The progress was notable, but the introduction of superior Western systems has not brought radical changes in Russian superiority. Russian artillery is still extremely overwhelming and deadly." #Ukraine #UkraineWar #Russia #UkraineRussia kyivindependent.com/national/why-u…
"Russia's numerical superiority, and its endless munitions stock ... have had a devastating effect on the course of the war... The disproportion between the number of Russian and Ukrainian pieces deployed to a particular front line area can go as far as 10 to 1." #Ukraine #Russia
"Western supplies of artillery and other weapons would increase the firepower and resistance by the Ukrainian forces. But they are unlikely to change the outcome of the war. Russia would still have a big advantage.. in artillery and missiles over Ukraine." academia.edu/81203303/Inter…
“We have to be honest — for now Ukraine doesn’t have a sufficient number of weapons systems for a counter offensives,” said a defense and intelligence adviser to the Ukrainian government who spoke on the condition of anonymity,,." washingtonpost.com/world/2022/08/…

Comparative politics: It's revealing that politicians, media & self-proclaimed experts now routinely propagate without any evidence false-flag attack claims but deny as "conspiracy theory" overwhelming evidence of #falseflag Maidan massacre in #Ukraine
bbc.com/news/world-eur…
This is another demonstration that such politicians, media & self-proclaimed experts have no concern about evidence, truth & justice in #Ukraine but are concerned only by partisan politics.

Many people like @StephenKing have no idea who Bandera was but call him Ukrainian hero. My study shows that the leader of semi-fascist OUN, which collaborated with Nazis & perpetrated mass murder of Jews, Poles & Ukrainians, is not very popular in #Ukraine
researchgate.net/publication/26…
@StephenKing My study shows that region & perceptions of their involvement in mass murder were strongest predictors of views concerning #bandera faction of OUN, UPA & Bandera in #Ukraine. Their public support was strongest in Galicia & weakest in #Donbas & #Crimea. researchgate.net/publication/28…
My peer-reviewed study shows involvement of Bandera faction of Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN-B) & its Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA) in Nazi genocide of #Jews, #Ukrainians, Poles, #Russians, & Belarusians in #Ukraine, #Poland & #Belarus

As I noted previously concerning such #Russian plans, Russian minister of foreign affairs basically admits that #Russia now plans to occupy and annex more regions of #Ukraine beyond #Donbass . #UkraineRussianWar #RussianUkrainianWar reuters.com/world/europe/l…
"Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Wednesday that the geographical objectives of Moscow's "special military operation" in Ukraine are no longer limited to the eastern Donbas region but include a number of other territories." #Ukraine #Russia #UkraineRussiaWar

Various self-proclaimed experts now openly whitewash neo-Nazi & other far-right in #Ukraine & overwhelming evidence of their involvement in Maidan & Odesa massacres & other violence & smear scholars for their academic studies of such far-right involvement in mass killings.
They deny Maidan snipers despite videos, audio & photos, confessions by 14 members of Maidan sniper groups, testimonies by absolute majority of wounded Maidan protesters & over 500 witnesses & forensic examinations by #Ukraine government experts & cover-up researchgate.net/publication/34…
They whitewash far-right & other Maidan mass murderers in #Ukraine by means of smearing me & my academic studies & by fabricating evidence documented in videos, Maidan massacre trial, >500 eyewitness testimonies & forensic medical & ballistic examinations
