Prove it, Broken Cuck.

Even the people of China don't trust their own government anymore.

Uh oh, looks like NATO really does want to expand into Ukraine ...

Now the cucks and the Z-nationalists can hop up and down and say, "See? See? NATO really is an expansionist threat to RuZZia!"

Personally I think that's a great starting point for negotiations. Zelensky can tell PooTin to GTFO of Ukraine, including Donbas and Crimea, and in exchange, Ukraine promises never to become part of NATO.

Of course, PooTin would never agree to that, nor would his chickenZhit Z-nationalists.

Tenchu's Thoughts: The Quantity IS the Quality, Part 2

Russia Suffering 'Colossal' Military Losses in Intense Battle: Ukraine (msn.com)

RuZZia is trying very hard to take the city of Bakhmut on the eastern front. Inch-by-inch, they take a bit of territory at the cost of hundreds of lives PER DAY.

There is little strategic significance for taking that city, by the way. It is a crossroads and can serve as a hub for future attacks, but so can a lot of other cities along that front. Unlike before, the Ukrainian defensive lines won't collapse if Bakhmut were to fall.

The only reason for RuZZia throwing away hundreds of lives and tons of resources to take that city is political. But even that has value, since war can be defined as "politics by other means."

Moreover, the Wagner mercenaries are leading the effort to take Bakhmut, and they're doing so by throwing tens of thousands of new recruits into the meat grinder. This after the head of Wagner recruited tens of thousands of prisoners, including murderers, rapists, and even cannibals:

The estimates are somewhere between 20,000 and 35,000 prisoners are now fighting for Wagner. They're promised freedom if they survive, but let's be real. They're just sent to the front lines to die. PooTin and Prigozhin have no intention on awarding any felon with a full pardon.

In any case, Prigozhin wants to show PooTin that his Wagner thugs can accomplish what the general Ministry of Defense, headed by Sergay Shoigu, could not, which is to take and hold territory.

And all this at the cost of tens of thousands of RuZZian lives, along with tens of thousands of Ukrainian lives.

It's a political game within RuZZia being waged with real lives, and it is sickening to watch in real time.

Ukraine has to hold out and conserve the lives of their soldiers, even as they turn Bakhmut into a death trap for RuZZians (though RuZZia claims that the reverse is happening).

By the way, just to prove that RuZZia is indeed losing soldiers at a faster rate than Ukraine:

Vladimir Putin To Mobilize 2M Troops Into Ukraine & Step Down As Leader (radaronline.com)

Get that. TWO MILLION more "mobilized" troops. PooTin even wants 300K of them to be women, though most of them will probably in support roles.

Given that Ukraine's army started at approx. 800K, that's not good news unless Ukraine can gain more force-multipliers in the form of better weapons and less restrictions on their use.

Something to think about for those who continue to take Ukrainian lives for granted in this proxy war vs. RuZZia.
