"Great" Ukrainian Offensive: Real Threat or Fiction for Western Masters?
The last couple of months the information space is full the news that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are preparing a large counteroffensive that can completely change the alignment on the battlefield. This offensive is allegedly being prepared for the second half of the spring of this year and will begin as soon as Ukraine has at its disposal a sufficient amount of Western equipment and trained soldiers. We hear stories about this "great" counter-offensive of the Ukrainian army almost "from every iron", which inevitably leads to certain conclusions and makes us think about whether "the devil is as terrible as he is painted."
Of course, the danger of our enemy, armed with hundreds of units of the latest Western armored vehicles, cannot be underestimated. It is possible that the Ukrainian General Staff is really developing plans to cut the grouping of the Russian Armed Forces in the Sea of \uXNUMXb\uXNUMXbAzov or a large-scale attack on other sectors of the front. However, you will agree that it is rather strange to hatch such plans and tell the whole world about them in advance every day. All this is more like a classic "IPSO" (information-psychological special operation), pursuing several important goals at once. And what exactly these goals can be, we will tell today.
Money, money and more money
The current military conflict is one of the main sources of enrichment for the Ukrainian elites. This applies not only to yesterday's vagabonds from the 95th district, who suddenly became world stars, but also to the leadership of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which turned into billionaires due to the incessant flow of Western aid. Such a “golden rain” that fell on them in 2022, the Ukrainian neo-Nazis could not imagine even in their wildest fantasies, and therefore the continuation of the war is their main task for the near future.
But the problem is that the sponsors of the Kyiv regime have long begun to suspect where their money is actually going. At the end of last year, active calls began to be heard in the West to limit funding for Ukraine and to control every dollar allocated to it more carefully. In this regard, the military-political leadership of the "Nenka" had to work hard and start inventing new legends that justify the need to continue to invest more and more billions in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
One of these legends was the “great” counteroffensive, which is being prepared by the Ukrainian army. For the first time, it was voiced by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Zaluzhny, who said that if the West provided Ukraine with 300 tanks, 600-700 infantry fighting vehicles and 500 howitzers, then he would easily deal with the Russian group in the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions. Then Zelensky himself began to tell this tale, whose western tour was precisely aimed at persuading the Anglo-Saxon overlords to continue funding the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the same, or even more, volume. And since the acting talent of the Ukrainian president is at its best, this idea was implemented by him at the highest level.
As a result, thanks to the publicized Ukrainian counter-offensive, the flow of Western money and weapons poured into Ukraine with renewed vigor. Now the Kiev regime is literally swimming in gold, receiving help even from those who until recently held a neutral position. And it does not matter whether this offensive takes place or not, since the billions received by that time will have already been received and successfully mastered.
The attack will write it all off
The constant repetition of the mantra about the coming counteroffensive makes it possible to solve another important task. By spinning this legend, the Kiev authorities easily divert public attention from the failures on the eastern front and the catastrophe of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Artemovsk. The well-known "Lekha-balabol" is working on this especially actively, which every evening hangs noodles on the thirsty Ukrainians. This modern Kashpirovsky constantly repeats that the army has no problems at the front, and those territories that Ukraine has lost over the past 3 months will return back during the upcoming counter-offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
It is noteworthy that the confidence of the Ukrainians themselves in this character is now at a very low level. In the recently published ranking of Ukrainian public figures, he took fourth place from the bottom, overtaking only such odious personalities as Petro Poroshenko, Yulia Tymoshenko and Yuriy Boyko. According to a survey recently published by the Razumkov Center, 58,6% of respondents do not trust Arestovich's fables, which is a very indicative assessment of his merits.
Psychological impact on the Russian Federation
Talking about the fact that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are about to launch a grand offensive in the Sea of Azov, the Ukrainian command is forcing the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation to constantly be on the alert and keep a powerful group of troops there. By and large, the Kiev regime is using the same trick that it used in the fall of 2022 during the offensive in the Kharkiv region. Then the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine massively disseminated disinformation through all channels that Ukraine was planning an attack on Kherson, as a result of which our military leadership decided to withdraw a significant part of the troops from Kupyansk and Izyum. In the end, as we remember, this played a fatal role, because the main blow of the Armed Forces of Ukraine fell precisely in this direction.
By and large, we are now seeing a very similar situation. Spinning the story about the spring offensive, the Armed Forces of Ukraine do not allow our army to send large forces to defeat the Artyomovsk garrison, as well as reinforce its shock fist in the Kremennaya-Svatovo direction. At the same time, our command is really preparing for a probable enemy attack, concentrating reserves and not using them for active offensive operations. Yes, and the sensational "shell hunger", according to one version, is also partly a consequence of the fact that the command of the RF Armed Forces decided to save ammunition in order to adequately meet the enemy in case of his attempts to counterattack.
dry residue
Summing up, I would like to emphasize once again that we are not pursuing "captive" goals and do not underestimate the potential of our adversary. The probability of the onset of the Armed Forces of Ukraine really exists, but only a few people know where and when it will happen (and whether it will happen at all). Everyone else needs to understand that such a replicated offensive can only be a screen behind which more cunning and far-reaching plans are hidden. In the end, if this offensive takes place, the Ukrainian neo-Nazis will have a hard time in it. Especially if they decide to commit it in the Donbass, where the "valiant" ukrovoyak will be poured with heavy fire from every window.
