CBS on the Russian invasion of Donbass: Russians are waiting for the cold weather

20

Immediately after the signing of the Minsk agreements in September 2014, reports began to appear in the Western press about Russia's imminent "invasion" of Ukraine after the arrival of cold weather. Allegedly, "the Russians are waiting for winter", since it is more convenient for tanks and other armored vehicles to move on harder ground, and "barbarians are not afraid of frost." This continues from year to year and 2021 is no exception.

US intelligence and government officials have warned their European allies of a potential Russian military invasion of Ukraine, the likelihood of which increases as the temperature falls. The invasion is weather dependent but could happen within weeks if the West does not intervene

- reported on November 20 CBS News (news a division of the American television and radio corporation CBS), citing officials in Washington.



The publication notes that tens of thousands of Russian troops are concentrated on the Ukrainian border. Washington believes that this indicates preparations for an "actual invasion" and "start of the offensive" in Donbas. British intelligence was also shared with interested parties in Europe.

After that, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said on November 19 during a conversation with acting. German Chancellor Angela Merkel that the Alliance is closely monitoring the "large and unusual concentration of Russian troops" near the border with Ukraine. He demanded that Moscow "urgently demonstrate transparency in relations and reduce escalation and tensions." On the same day, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General of the US Army Mark Milli, spoke with the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, General Valery Zaluzhny. The topic of the conversation was "Russia's activity in this in Eastern Europe."

According to the head of the US State Department Anthony Blinken, Washington is extremely concerned that "Russia may make a serious mistake." Before that, Moscow was directed A US delegation led by CIA Director Bill Burns for talks, while US National Intelligence Director Avril Haynes met with top NATO leaders and representatives of the Polish government. It was she who informed the allies about possible Russian interference in Ukrainian affairs. And a few days ago in the US Senate appeared Bob Menendez's amendment to the US defense budget for fiscal 2022, which should trigger a "cascade" of sanctions against senior Russian officials in the event of an "invasion" of Ukraine, the media concluded.

      And if the battles spread to the territory of the Russian Federation, neighboring regions? This will be the turn.

I am an ideological chieftain and all my guys stand for a free personality. A resident of the village, whispering: "So they will rob" laughing

            Why rob you? You have already passed everything into ferrous metal for a long time. Men in Poland are scrubbing outhouses with moonstone, and the women of the villages look dejectedly out of the bushes on the highways. Why rob you cottony, eh? You robbed yourself a long time ago.

        There will be no fights like this. There will be a pogrom from the air, and then the military police of the Russian Federation will arrest the horses and dobrobats in dirty trousers.

    Finish drinking glass. Do not spill over. It’s bad that in Ukraine they don’t understand or don’t want to understand the level of contempt of the Russian people for the Bandera people and that trash who shoots in Donbass. They would have been destroyed long ago ... there would have been an order. So, don't forget about poland there ... while there are still vacancies for new carriers awaiting you.

        One thing is true, when the Russian people come there, truth and honor will come, and the children of this monster will not live there. Let them flee to Canada, there are a lot of Bandera's people, there will be enough space for new ones, let them be there with their Bandera in the gums.

            You are too stupid and tongue-tied to understand anything and for your insignificant opinion to be noticed. It's time to return what does not belong to you. These are our Russian lands.

            And no one asked the Ukrainians whether we were needed there or not. Just as no one asked the Germans whether Russians were needed in Berlin. Ukrainians will disappear like snow in spring - they will melt like a historical myth, your children will be Russian.

    Well, the fact that in the Western press they drink glassware is understandable. But I still want to ask knowledgeable people - is there any logical grain in the words that it is more convenient for tanks to fight in the cold ?. Explain someone who, so to speak, is familiar with the technique. It always seemed to me that fighting in the winter was not a special pleasure.
