Unlike the Russians in this BMP I can literally see the minefield lines on the road.

But that is the Russian army, as we know it.

Putin is the biggest loser of the last 10 years and here is my list of reasons why. Let me elaborate:

1.) 2013/2014 Putin tried to install Janukovic as a puppet dictator in Ukraine, similar to Lukashenko in Belarus. His scheme fell apart and Janukovic was fleeing shortly later.

Putin failed.
2.) 2014 Putin tried to take the Donbas and to expel the Ukrainian army by using Russian troops disguised as rebels. The Ukrainian army came back, destroyed most of those elements and established a contact line.

Putin failed.
3.) During the Minsk 1/2 talks, Putin tried to carve the eastern regions out from the Ukrainian state. Ukrainians resisted that trap.

Putin failed.

My opinion regarding this clip:

This isn’t Putin and the buildings which have been already geolocated are not the base. It is a decoy, the man and the base.
#Kherson #Ukraine

The Russian army is one of the dumbest armies in the world, but even they wouldn't allow to have taken pictures that way. This very distinct water tower can be easily concealed when recording in a different angle.

They wanted us to geolocate this location. Image
What's more interesting is the effort Russians have put to mask that room. I think this is a windowless storage room. Image

You might have never heard of cities called "Khaishenvai", "Boli" or "Shuangchenzi" as well as the island of "Quedao", because that are the official names according the Chinese Ministry of Natural Resources for Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, Ussuriysk and Sakhalin, "newly" introduced.
I cannot say that I'm surprised, aside that it happens a earlier.

When you look into (Chinese) history you will find the chapter of "Unequal Treaties" where parts of China were carved out and integrated into imperial powers, e.g. Britain, Germany, France, Japan and...Russia.
All imperial powers have left China (feudal borders) some time ago - Portugal in Macao was the last - except for one:

Russia

Of course you will not find any discussion regarding this in China, for political reasons, yet, but the sentiment never disappeared.

5 years ago I wrote this tweet. It was a few days after Russians and Assadist forces tried to take over the Al Omar oil fields in eastern Syria by attacking US-backed SDF troops. It was a disaster for the Russians. PMC Wagner lost an entire battalion within few hours.
#Syria
What happened before this fateful event:

SDF was successfully advancing south. By that time a significant part of the oil fields had been under SDF control and more fields further south, which were under Islamic State control, were in reach.
The Assad regime forces as well as Russians understood that it was important for them to thwart that. So Assad and Putin cooked up a plane to attack SDF, directly, and seize the very lucrative Al Omar oil fields.

The whole situation around Vuhledar gets even spicier when reflecting this little know fact that another mercenary group, "PMC Patriot", is operating there, and they are led by no other than Russian Defense Minister Shoigu.
#Vuhledar #Ukraine
n-tv.de/politik/Ukrain…
The Russian military has fielded huge amounts of troops and gear in order to take Vuhledar. They were even so convinced to succeed that they glaringly used their propaganda outlets to announce that the takeover will be achieved "within 72h".
Everything was prepared for the "glorious Russian victory" and Shoigu, so that he sees himself vindicated.
The fact that it ended in such an epic disaster for the Russian side, and especially for Shoigu as well as the (official) Russian military altogether, makes this hilarious.

Igor “Strelkov” Girkin continues to attack decisions made by the Russian leadership. Today, he attacks Russia’s adventure in Syria. Screenshot (source is his Telegram channel) speaks volumes. He is right when he calls Syria a “bottomless hole”. But what’s Putin’s motive? Thread
Some say that he wanted to project Russian power into the Middle East while the US were gradually withdrawing. But I think that this was only a secondary reason. Far more important was to him something personal and that’s the fate of an helpless dictator, Assad’s fate.
Putin’s trauma started in Dresden 1989 and with it his desperate calls to Moscow for help while East-Germany was falling apart. Moscow ignored his pleas and forced him to retreat into his KGB headquarters. He was terrified that people will storm it and lynch him.
