Putin is more upset that Ukraine has 'really bloodied' his military than about any Biden statement: former ambassador

Matthew Chapman
March 28, 2022

On Monday's edition of CNN's "The Lead," former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine William Taylor pushed back on anchor Jake Tapper's suggestion that President Joe Biden's speech, saying that Vladimir Putin " cannot remain in power," is unlikely to matter in terms of Putin escalating his offensives in Ukraine.

"Ambassador Taylor, Ukraine's military intelligence head said Vladimir Putin could be looking to carve Ukraine into two, like North and South Korea, occupied Ukraine maybe to the south and east, free Ukraine to the west," Tapper said. "Do Biden's comments about who should be in power embolden Putin in any way, do you think?"

"Jake, I don't think so," said Taylor. "I don't think that those comments had anything to do with the decision to try to carve out a part of Ukraine. Putin carved out a part of Ukraine in 2014 when he first invaded. He carved out Crimea. He carved out a place we call Donbas."

"And if that's what they are going back to, that's actually a reduction in what they had planned to do, but that was an early effort and if they're going back to that now, that probably reflects the problems they're having on the battlefield," added Taylor. "That reflects the Ukrainian military has really bloodied the Russian military and, of course, Ukraine's military is fighting for its own land, its own people, its own freedom. So if Putin is going to go back to just the Donbas and Crimea, that has nothing to do with anything Biden said."

Russia getting their ass kicked by the outnumbered Ukrainians shows what a weak backward country Russia is..

I have more to post on this subject. And as the pre-eminent Russian propagandist, I nominate you for the honor or embarrassment of reviewing it.

In many tapped phone calls between Russian soldiers and their relatives (Russians steal UKR mobile phones, use them, SBU taps) they tell same story: how rich Ukraine is, how much they have looted, and how cool ppl lived here. Some saw asphalt and street lights for the fist time.





Many Western experts and politicians loved to repeat the story of "rich Russia and poor Ukraine". The fact is, that except of extra rich Moscow and Petersburg, Russia is an underdeveloped country, and average Ukrainian province lives much better than average Russian province.




For those who continue to ask me about asphalt. Guys, this is the main road in diamond- and gas-rich Yakutsk region. Photos of cars stuck there after rains appear regularly. I understand that Moscow can be chic and cool, and you haven't seen anything else, but Russia is not Moscow







Here are photos from Russian hospitals. Note that three are from: St.Petersburg, Elektrostal (Moscow suburbia) and Kislovodsk (a regional center and a resort in rich Russian south). Source (a RUSSIAN web page): t.co






As a former Russian, and a son of a medic, I can smell these pictures, so much they are authentic. It is a mixture of urine, chlorine, cold air, and cheap drugs. A terrible smell I need to say. A one cannot be erased from memory.
