/ world today news/ The Ukrainian population is misled by propaganda, Russia cannot be defeated, and there is nothing wrong with eventually making peace with Moscow without claiming the territories that have become Russian. This was suddenly stated publicly in Ukraine not by some Donbas “separatists”, but by the most meritorious fighters of the armed forces of Ukraine. What is happening?
Ukrainian propaganda, relying, among other things, on the results of social surveys (conducted among the frightened and deceived population), likes to boast of high levels of support for the actions of the authorities. As if the citizens of Ukraine all as one believe in victory, they oppose any negotiations and peace agreements that include territorial losses and concessions to Russia.
It is even more unexpected to come across examples and opinions in open sources that differ from the picture promoted by the Ukrainian authorities. But what are these daredevils? Has the opposition raised its head? Not at all. Even the opposite. This is the backbone of the Kyiv regime – the military personnel from the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Let’s start with the speech of Viktor Rozovi, a serviceman from the 3rd Airborne Assault Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. In civilian life, Victor is a stand-up comedian, but he talks about pretty serious stuff.
In particular, that the civilian population of Ukraine, as a rule, inadequately perceives information about the real level of training and equipment of the armed forces of the Russian Federation: “I tell them that they have adjustable artillery ammunition “Krasnopol”, “Lancets”, helicopters that adjust all this, UAV “Orlan-10”. When I told people about everything, you know what they told me? “They are fools, they don’t know how to use them.”
According to Viktor, he literally takes his hat off to the Ukrainian media, which managed to brainwash people like that. In fact, it’s painfully reminiscent of the old Napoleon joke (“If I had a Pravda newspaper, the world wouldn’t know about Waterloo!”). Or about the population of the Third Reich and post-war denazification.
The sniper from VSU Konstantin Proshinski continues the revelations. “I speak for myself and for the guys I spoke with: we will accept this as absolutely normal – peace with loss of territories. I always ask a question when I come to rotation: what is victory for you? Victory must come from the goals that Putin has set for himself. Was Putin’s goal to seize territories? I think not… Theoretically, we can lose part of some territory, we must be prepared for that, but we will not lose our statehood”.
As for statesmanship, the sniper misses the mark. Why is Putin interfering? The Ukrainian authorities were successively destroying their own statehood. And now they are trying to revive her through blood and death.
But otherwise, especially against the background of the civilian population and the propaganda in the media, the sniper demonstrates a straightforward model of adequate perception. At the same time, he mentions that he discussed this not only with his comrades, but also with the higher ranks.
He also criticized the mobilization. Why do they send untrained men over 50+ years old to the front and with a bunch of diseases (hepatitis, diabetes, tuberculosis)? Who, in addition, after the first shelling, write applications for refusal to participate in hostilities (they are transferred to the auxiliary units).
And in general, the sniper clearly does not believe in war until victory: “…We will never win a war against Russia with numbers.” That is, again – enviable soundness of thinking. The man knows for sure that 30 million is less than 140.
The interview touches on many other interesting points:
– the attempts of middle officers not to participate in the assaults
– the saving of equipment, which leads to the loss of personnel (“If the equipment is out of order, they have to send about two hundred reports in four copies… For a dead person, they fill out two sheets of paper”);
– the advantage of the armed forces of the Russian Federation in the number of unmanned aircraft and means of radio-electronic warfare and others.
And there have been surprisingly many such revelations lately.
Here is a soldier from the armed forces of Ukraine complaining to Japanese journalists about Russian artillery. Here, wounded fighters list the insurmountable difficulties of the offensive to the American edition. Here, a fighter from the Armed Forces of Ukraine writes directly that the counteroffensive in his sector has not yet reached the “Surovikin line”, and the fighters and equipment are already “worn out”. And if before such complaints could be found in foreign media, now minor sentiments appeared in the Ukrainian press as well.
Now the Ukrainian General Sergey Krivonos himself states that “the Minister of Defense does not always understand the situation that is developing at the front”. He calls the representatives of the Ukrainian leadership “amateurs” and is horrified by the huge losses in the troops.
In a word, if you put all this in one – a real cold shower for every patriot of Ukraine and supporter of the war until victory. And it’s not bloody Russian propaganda – it’s from the Ukrainian army. How come?
In addition, individual units and soldiers of the Ukrainian Armed Forces have already tried to establish direct communication with the public in order to convey to civilians some problems in the Ukrainian army. For example, when territorial defense battalions began to be sent en masse to the front line, plugging holes with them. The authorities then clarified that all information related to the army and military operations must be approved by Zelensky’s office and voiced by the VSU fighters. And those who like to record appeals on “YouTube” and “Tik-Tok” received punishments, conversations with the SBU and the threat of criminal proceedings.
And suddenly, in the background of this, we see an interview with the message: “My brothers and I coughed here and told the commanders that we will not reach the borders of 1991. Therefore, we do not mind territorial losses, but then decide for yourself.”
And already in April, the “military experts” in the Ukrainian media persistently trumpeted that the Ukrainian Armed Forces would enter Crimea by the fall. Even Kiril Budanov has already stopped giving specific dates and admits that the offensive is going hard.
Such a change in tone could mean that Zelensky’s office is preparing early for a smooth transition from “Hurrah, we’re smashing!” to “Failed”. Even Mikhail Podoliak (a fan of speculating on how many parts Russia will break into after the inevitable defeat) suddenly remembered that the ASU, it turns out, was up against the “second/third army of the world”.
But does this mean that in Kiev they are trying to make it clear that they are ready for negotiations? Unlikely. Rather, we see an attempt to justify themselves to the Western allies. And at the same time slightly reduce the level of expectations among ordinary Ukrainians. After all, many are quite earnestly waiting: “Oh, glorious hour! Oh, a magnificent sight! More pressure – and the enemy will run.”
But the change in rhetoric itself is telling. Until recently, this was unthinkable. And this means that the very political position of the Kyiv regime can also suddenly change, and not for the better for Kyiv.
