Gerasimov announced the confrontation between the Russian army and the entire collective West

January 24 2023

Valery Gerasimov, Chief of the General Staff of the RF Armed Forces, who was appointed commander of the Joint Group of Forces in the NVO zone on January 11, in an interview with the Argumenty i Fakty newspaper spoke about Russia's confrontation with Western countries. According to him, the modern history of the Russian Federation has not yet known such a level of intensity of hostilities.

Russia and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are opposed by almost the entire collective West

- said Valery Gerasimov.

He also noted that in order to stabilize the situation and protect new territories, the General Staff needed to put into effect plans for partial mobilization. At the same time, the commander of the Joint Group of Forces in the NVO zone admitted that the system was not fully adapted to modern conditions, everything had to be corrected on the go, but as a result of the coordinated actions of the officers of the General Staff and the authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, the events were successful.

In addition, Valery Gerasimov spoke about the plans for the development of the RF Armed Forces. According to him, they have undergone changes taking into account the NMD and the emergence of new threats to Russia's military security.

Speaking about the main threats to the security of the Russian Federation, Valery Gerasimov named among them the desire of NATO to expand at the expense of Finland and Sweden, as well as the use of Ukraine as an instrument in a hybrid war.

The main changes in terms of construction and development of the RF Armed Forces against this background are the creation of the Moscow and Leningrad military districts, the formation of three motorized rifle divisions in the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions, as well as the creation of an army corps in Karelia

- said Valery Gerasimov.

This we have known for a long time. It would be better to explain, if such a smart and not a traitor, why do we allow the supply of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with NATO weapons? When will we start to fight seriously?

    Russia has enough x22 missiles and calibers to demolish all the bridges dividing Ukraine into the left bank and right bank. In the event of a bridge "dividing" Ukraine, the western grouping will receive weapons in excess and the eastern group will receive NOTHING

  It is necessary to destroy all bridges across the Dnieper River. This country has not built a single bridge in 30 years, and now, Russia can confidently aim its missiles at Soviet maps, and then the supply of the Armed Forces in Donbas will be disrupted.

A question that has already become rhetorical: Why are the routes for transporting Western equipment, L / S, fuel and lubricants to the Donbass not destroyed? How long will we protect the crossing routes between Poland and Ukraine? There are only 5 crossings. 5 missiles each. A total of 3 pieces ...... Well, also Romania and Odessa. Okay, 15 missiles and that's it, the war will end. Maybe it's time?

Kissinger was unable to say anything smart at the forum this time. Talking about some kind of dialogue is ridiculous when one side does not listen to the other and concentrates on sanctions, on hostile sanctions - to force them to carry out their decisions that are unacceptable to the other side of the "dialogue".

Kissinger only confirmed that NATO would not give up and that Ukraine would join NATO after it was "liberated". His words are not subject to any other interpretation.

The US and Europe should continue dialogue with Russia, Henry Kissinger said at the World Economic Forum in Davos. They should give Moscow the opportunity to rejoin the international system. The full recording of Kissinger's speech has been published on The Guardian's YouTube channel.

Russia and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are opposed by almost the entire collective West

Translated from the military, these words sound like this.
"The leadership has given me the task of resisting the entire West. I am doing what I can. About the feasibility and reasonableness of the task - the questions are not for me, but for my leadership."
But there really are questions, and they really are not in the competence of Commander Valery Gerasimov.
Everyone knows that the United States of America is concentrating the forces of the entire Western world and conducting an operation against us in Ukraine.
Is Russia capable of crushing all these forces with its blood (that is, completely disarming the West) without resorting to pressure on the United States? If this is the only way to save it, why does the government, already on the verge of war with NATO, neglect it?
This issue is within the competence of Putin and his team, who so far are diligently avoiding the possibility of a collision with their "partners"

  The outbreak of war with NATO will be irreversible. We are only one step away from the abyss. Maybe half a step

      This is a deception to console the people, to whom this government is not able to promise anything else. I am sure that there are no fanatics of revenge in it.

        Alexey Davydov, I don’t seem to deceive the people, I don’t promise and I don’t console, NATO’s aggression on the face is beyond doubt. Listen to Kissinger. And stop your harmful activities. I hope you are smart enough to use this advice.

and what did this Gerasimov count on when he planned this SVO. He sent naked columns to Kyiv and Kharkov, Sumy and Chernihiv instead of taking Odessa, the western regions of Ukraine, cutting it off from the flow of aid from the West. Why was this operation so poorly prepared and organized, the number of manpower and equipment necessary for it was not calculated, and reserves were not formed. After all, the General Staff, headed by Gerasimov, should be responsible for all this. After all, this "level of intensity" did not appear by itself, our actions contributed to this. Our command gave the enemy the opportunity to come to his senses, take up arms, mobilize, organize defense and resistance, and then completely gave him all the initiative. And now he tells us about the intensity of hostilities.
