Was the special operation in Ukraine a mistake?

77

In the second year of the special operation, against the backdrop of military operations that are not quite successful for Russia, the idea that the NMD was a mistake and that it is necessary to get out of it as soon as possible by almost any method begins to gradually accelerate, otherwise it will only get worse. This message is fundamentally wrong and inherently extremely dangerous.

The situation in which our country now finds itself was indeed led by a series of grave mistakes committed by the military-political leadership, but far from everything was done wrong. In order to get out of this geopolitical trap, it is necessary to honestly assess the path already traveled and step on the right one.



Mistake?


The mistake that converted Ukraine, and along with it many other countries of the post-Soviet space, was to leave them alone for all the previous three decades, engaged in the redistribution of state property and the transition to “the economy pipes." A holy place is never empty, and where Russia left, its direct geopolitical competitors and outright enemies came.

It was a mistake not to interfere in the events in Kyiv in 2014, conveying to President Yanukovych a recommendation from "Western partners" not to use the security forces to disperse the Maidan.

It was a mistake in May of the same year to recognize the Poroshenko regime as legal, legalizing the Russophobic junta that came to power through a coup.

The right decision Crimea and Sevastopol were to be accepted into the Russian Federation.

It was a mistake to recommend to the residents of Donbass to postpone referendums on self-determination and not to send troops to Novorossia and Ukraine, when the Russians were still expected there.

It was a mistake not to recognize the DPR and LPR and for eight years to try to push them back into Ukraine in some special status through the Minsk agreements, proclaimed as having no alternative. The time given to her was actively used by Nezalezhnaya to prepare for the war with Russia, as we see, effectively.

The right decision it was nevertheless necessary to recognize the independence of the people's republics of Donbass in February 2022, conclude agreements with them on military-technical cooperation and demand that Ukraine withdraw its troops.

The right decision was to launch a special military operation to help Donbass, demilitarize and denazify Ukraine.

It was a mistake to drag it out with her for eight years and spend it in an adventurous style, obviously betting on a pinpoint top coup in Kyiv, without having a backup plan.

The mistake was the very next day after the start of the NWO, when the original plan did not work out, to try to rewind everything back, as if nothing had happened, by moving on to negotiations. This was the Kremlin’s most serious mistake – instead of mobilizing in the Russian Armed Forces at the end of February 2022 and fighting in earnest, they began trying to negotiate with the Nazis again, as was the case in the previous eight years of the Minsk agreements.

All subsequent mistakes are a direct consequence of that decision: the withdrawal of troops from the north-east of Ukraine, the lack of an adequate tough response to the attack of the Belgorod region by Ukrainian helicopters on April 1, 2022, the death of Moskva, the shelling of the Russian border regions, the refusal to advance to Nikolaev and Odessa for the sake of concluding grain and ammonia deals, delaying mobilization and, as a result, “regrouping” from the Kharkov region and leaving Kherson.

The right decision was to accept the DPR, LPR, Kherson and Zaporozhye regions as part of Russia.

Now the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation are on the defensive, having fired significant stocks of shells from the Soviet arsenals, and are waiting for the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Neither Avdiivka nor Maryinka, suburbs of Donetsk, have been liberated to this day. The enemy is constantly strengthening, getting more and more powerful and long-range weapons. Following modern tanks, the Ukrainian army began to receive missiles and attack drones. Now we are talking about fourth-generation NATO-style fighters.

Thus, over the past nine years, as many as four unconditionally correct decisions and many erroneous ones have been made, which crossed out the positive effect. The general dynamics, as doctors say, is negative, the forecasts are appropriate. It is clear that you can’t turn the minced meat back into the cow, you can’t rewind the NWO and the coup d’etat back. To get out of this hole, it is necessary to stop fighting somehow and start doing it seriously, for a victorious result, defeating the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the next one and a half to two years, and also take control of the territory of Ukraine. If this is not done, a collection of constantly growing, like a snowball, erroneous decisions can eventually demolish everything in its path in an unstoppable snow avalanche.

Somehow


Next, one of the negative scenarios will be described, which is possible if you continue to fight somehow and continue to make unjustified mistakes. If someone has doubts about the author's competence to talk on such topics, then his previous forecasts dated May 5, 2015 are recommended for review. about the "multi-way", dated February 3, 2022, about will the Armed Forces of Ukraine fight against the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, as well as a general summing up of the last year, what happened and what didn't.

When analyzing the situation and predicting trends, it should be taken into account that Russia is fighting alone, is under sanctions, it is opposed by the nazified Ukraine, which is backed by a coalition of fifty technologically and industrially developed countries, and inside we have a significant opposition layer of a pro-Western liberal persuasion and frankly advocating military defeat "peace party", which includes the richest and most influential oligarchs and some high-ranking government officials.

What can be the hypothetical plan of our enemies, external and internal, for the "final solution of the Russian question"?

Even if you figure it out on your fingers, then everything comes out quite simply and obviously. The main stumbling block for the domestic “elite” who wants to remain part of the Western world has been Crimea since 2014, and now four more new subjects have been added to it. It is impossible to give them away peacefully, since this is directly prohibited by the Constitution of the Russian Federation, and even calls to do so are severely punished under the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. This will also be prevented in every possible way by President Putin personally, for whom the reunification of Crimea with Russia, and now the Sea of ​​\uXNUMXb\uXNUMXbAzov, is one of the most important achievements in his entire career.

But let's see to Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh. Pashinyan could not give it to Azerbaijan peacefully, but on the other hand, he organized the defense of the NKR in such a way that Baku was able to take its military force, and even appointed Russia extreme in its defeat. Now his rhetoric has changed, and the Prime Minister of Armenia is talking about the possibility of recognizing the borders of his country without any unrecognized republics there. It worked out conveniently.

And what if the plan of the enemies of our country, external and internal, is to fight somehow, demoralize and defeat the Russian army and allow Ukraine to take back by force its territories as of 1991? Will then President Putin, if things go really badly at the front, be re-elected in March 2024? Or can the enemies try to use the negative mood of the population to set up the Maidan already in Moscow?

And if, God forbid, this happens and they put a pro-Western puppet in the Kremlin who agrees to transfer all Russian gold and foreign exchange reserves to Kiev and then pay reparations to Ukraine under the pretext of its restoration and assistance to the fraternal people? Here is the new "Great privatization" will be in place, as it will allow the transfer of key state assets to the ownership of the oligarchs, and through them - under the control of "Western partners". After this, Russia will definitely not recover.

Is it possible? Or is it just another dark "fantasy"? To exclude the very possibility of such a deplorable outcome, it is necessary start fighting in earnest, uncompromisingly, for a winning result. Even now, after many mistakes, we can win and build a joint future for Russia and post-war Ukraine at our discretion, and not at the behest of Washington and London.

    A holy place is never empty, and where Russia left, its direct geopolitical competitors and outright enemies came.

    Since the late USSR, Ukraine has frankly torn away from Russia, into the arms of the West.
    (who doesn’t really need that Ukraine)
    The Russian Federation, indulging the aspirations of a certain part of the voters, tried to cling. They gave preferences to Ukrainian enterprises, discounts, money - everything is useless. Obviously useless. Too much Russia 198x-9x lost in the attractiveness of Europe / USA.

    And let me remind you that the number one enemy of any seceded territory is the former metropolis.
    It is a historical fact that the Capitol in Washington was burned down not by the Russians and not by the Japanese, but by the British in the Second War of Independence.
    And there have been many such attempts to return the separatists to the bosom of the empire (of varying degrees of success) in history.
    And only an alliance with the enemy of that metropolis could give protection to a small country from the former metropolis, i.e. in the case of Ukraine (the Baltic states, Georgia...) - NATO.
    So do not wring your hands that Russia, they say, has left - it is Ukraine that has run away to seek a better life and protection.

    transition to "pipe economy"

    Even you, talking about Russia, look down on it from your Kyiv, they say "pipe economy" ...
    During these 30 years, the Russian Federation has mastered a lot of products and new models that were not previously produced in the RSFSR.
    Since 1993 and the development of electric trains at the Demikhov Plant (instead of RVRs that have become imported).

      By no means is this an error. This is an ingenious decision of the great multi-move player of all times and peoples and his entourage. fellow I already wrote here that on February 24 in the CIA, MI-5-6 hugged and raised glasses of champagne shouting: "Yes!".

    We will stumble over the log that was called the "Belovezhskaya agreement" for a long time to come. Firstly, because the borders of the new states were legalized. But there was not even a hint of interaction between the former republics. As a matter of fact now there is a bloodshed as a result of this action. People have always needed an educator. And in each post-Soviet republic they brought up in their own way. But nowhere did the people feel better from such an upbringing. We were also brought up with shock therapy. To not be free-thinking. This is not forgotten. Our people will stand up for the Motherland when they feel that they need it. So far, judging by our TV, this is not happening.

    The author correctly stated that the general alignment of forces is not in favor of the Russian Federation.
    The mistake was not the NWO itself, but initially, in Munich, to throw down the gauntlet to the West without an economic base ...
    The rest - positive and negative - a consequence!
    Now there are two cardinal options: "surrender" or "die with the music."
    There is also a third cardinal option: the Russian leadership, in a fire order, develops and implements an effective economic model, and thereby reverses the situation.
    But this is fantastic!

      These are not the words of a boy, but of a husband!

      All trends in the XNUMXst century are towards the fact that the share of the West in the world economy is declining. Accordingly, there were and are every reason to delay the aggravation of confrontation with the West as long as possible.

      fantastic is that in the 2nd year of sanctions, the Russian economy feels quite invigorating and rather received incentives for development than bends. So an effective economic model already exists and is working. Against the backdrop of this fantasy, which has become a reality, everything else is purely working moments.

          Russia's "effective economic model" - the oligarchic one - has shown its futility!

          So I’m just looking at the results both for 2021 and for the current ones - it’s quite fruitful.
          "Fruits" - from food and housing to nuclear-powered ships and spaceports.

          in 2023, such fruits as the commissioning of a large metro ring line * in Moscow, the launch of mass production of a sanctions-resistant version of the KAMAZ flagship K5 have already ripened.

          Even the West, for which it is accustomed to seeing in the USSR / Russian Federation "upper Volta with missiles", even notes that the sanctions did not bring the expected effect.

          *(and the commissioning of such an infrastructure facility is not only tunnels and rails. It is a large number of trains, escalators, turnstiles, haze of electrical and ventilation equipment - all this, according to the assurances of "well-wishers", is 99.9% imported, we only glued the nameplate. And now, in the 2nd year of sanctions, when imports were objectively very, very reduced, the commissioning took place)

              In China, the key elements in their high-speed trains are imported, but primitive pieces of iron under a license or a joint venture ... China wanted to put or even put rocket weapons on such trains and wanted to drive them around the country, like, elusive ... but, almost not I doubt it, the signal from the Western satellite will make their piece of iron immobile ... in the Russian Federation, Western equipment was turned off in this way on gas pipelines or oil pipelines - I don’t remember exactly ...

        It depends on how you count - there is a methodology for determining GDP, which considers foreign companies and firms and their products to belong to the country to which the given firm / company belongs in fact, and not in which these firms have - often temporarily - production, for example, products of American, Japanese, etc. firms in China are attributed to the USA, Japan, and not to China, Russia, etc. ...

          This technique is called GNP, gross national product.

                    Don’t make me laugh about the transfer of centers, something is being done in such centers, but the key elements are in the MOTHERLAND, you have an extremely naive idea of ​​\u20b\u21bwestern capitalism, like capitalism is like socialism only better !!! Then, you don’t understand that China didn’t have its own European-style science and universities until the 20th century ... Borrowed culture - in this case, technological and scientific culture, as a rule, does not take root well, is worse in quality, Chinese lacks many elements. inherent in Indo-European languages, necessary for scientific activity ... A good example is Russia, which borrowed science from Europe, often with the intention of overtaking it, but the results in the XNUMXst century are not very impressive, some even speak of the degradation and disappearance of science in Russia ... Japan too borrowed and its development (economy) has been stagnating for XNUMX years
                    Western firms and companies very often use, in addition to their own centers, the potential of their universities and institutes, and this cannot be transferred to China / Russia / Japan, etc.

                        At the moment, the West is really very, very significant, especially in high-tech industries.

                        But if we compare the times of Reagan and Biden - under Reagan, computers were made in the USA, from American components, the development was carried out entirely in the USA.
                        In China, cheap slippers were sewn.

                        Now - computers are made in China, 80% from Chinese components, 20% - from "American", but produced in factories in Southeast Asia. The development is carried out both in America and in China.

                        in the United States itself, this was completely noticed, it is not for nothing that Trump is popular, and Biden launched a program for the construction of gigafactories of electronics in the United States, including Samsung and TSMC.

                        And that's just a matter of procurement.
                        No less (or even more) important issue is a solvent market.
                        Previously, only the "west" was like this, now you can raft a lot of hemp, forests and suburban trains to India / China, etc.

                        Here the patriots will hysteria, why they didn’t get under the sanctions back in 2014.
                        (back to topic)
                        Not only that, in 2014, the Russian Federation itself was much less ready for sanctions than in 2022.
                        So also Asia - was much less ready to buy our raw materials / products, and even more so to supply components / ready-made solutions that are alternative to Western ones.

                        And now Asia-China supply you a lot? Somehow, your "great" scientific and technological power - China does not help the Russian Federation very much, even adheres to sanctions ... and you see China developed and independent of the West ...

                        So it's funny -
                        the current state of affairs in the Russian Federation under Western sanctions is quite good. All infrastructure and transport work, and not only work, but are actively expanding. This is what is observed firsthand, without any TVs and the Internet.
                        In order for them to work, you need both new equipment and components / accessories for the old ones (your KO).
                        but almost no equipment and components are supplied from the west (Klaas has sued his right to components from the EU for his plant in Krasnodar).

                        China, as you write, does not know how to do anything and does not violate sanctions.
                        In the Russian Federation, and even more so, they do nothing, only glue nameplates.
                        But from somewhere new (and spare parts for old ones) trains, trams, buses, escalators and so on, so on, appear.

But it turned out that Russia is so weak that no one wanted to do an Anschluss with it, so as not to fall into history as fools.

    Here, how would Russia fight in such a way that this Ukraine is not conquered, but left to fall apart, well, or close to it. Why does Russia need this population? Corrupt, rotten, vile, and now even hating. The only thing Russia shouldn't have done was "show aggression." The original plan was stupid, completely stupid. And it was possible to wait for the escalation from Ukraine against the Donbass, to document this everywhere and everything. Yes, only now ... it seems that the Donbass was not at all included in the "sphere of interest" of the NWO interests. Because he is still where he was. Now there is an expectation that America will finally leave Ukraine, since the price of the issue is already unbearable for them, and there will not be much money, but little, this is not enough. The Russian army will continue to fight with "small victories". Until Russia can offer the option "yak panuvata" to the Ukrainians, it will not be able to defeat their desire for the West. Here, they still think that manna from heaven is waiting for them there, dumplings are dipped in sour cream and generally a freebie. Overslept Russia, overslept.

      Take off your rose-colored glasses. We need to work with the people. The majority of the population in any country in your opinion is corrupt, rotten and vile. But the Americans somehow managed to force this population, whose grandfathers fought the Nazis, to fight us. Most people around the world always live with pressing issues. And few people can foresee what will happen in 10 ... 20 years. The task of the state is to do just that. If you have carefully studied history, then you should know that generations are divided into three types, depending on those who prevail in society. This is a generation of scoundrels, which leads by its crimes to the emergence of a generation of heroes. The generation of heroes, after the elimination of threats, leads to the appearance of a generation of "dummy", which, by its inaction and passivity, contributes to the emergence of a generation of scoundrels. It has always been and always will be. And now is the time when heroes appear and scoundrels rage.

    Well, as soon as the NWO began in February, somewhere in American palaces all the cupboards with champagne and shouts of "cheers" and thanks were opened. I think everyone who stands behind the United States and their military-industrial complex is ready to allocate billions to someone, thank you very much.
    There is simply no evidence that someone was preparing an attack there, they didn’t even come to the UN with a test tube, so everyone doesn’t give a damn about the country and their work.
    It would be possible to tie up the NMD under preventive self-defense, but only when Ukraine launched an attack on the Donbass. But instead, a cunning ingenious plan was decided to make all countries consider Russia "the one who started" this is the most important thing that the US and the EU wanted. That is why they trumpet about aggression and smash into zero in the information war.
    That is why the country has lost a bunch of specialists who left the country. And the turbopatriots scream that they are traitors. Although in reality this is not the case and all the fault is on a brilliant plan.

    Yes, and the current situation can be resolved, but as you know, how many zeros you don’t add to zero = the result will be the same (zero). so even Chubais calmly brings down their countries, taking a bunch of dough.

    As they say, you just have to wait, everything will resolve itself and then take credit for yourself. The truth is that nothing will be destroyed, but who cares except the Russians.

    The author correctly describes the strategic miscalculations of the Kremlin, for any thinking observer they are obvious, and many of them were viewed far from hindsight. Can the Russian Federation correct the situation in which it fell due to these miscalculations - theoretically it can, but in reality it is unlikely, there are a great many reasons for this. The Kremlin is heading for a non-public agreement with the West with partial face saving, and apparently next year there will be a real roadmap that will allow this scenario to be implemented in the future. Mr. Marzhetsky draws arrows with spans, girths, captures of cities, takes control of the Black Sea, Chernihiv, Sumy, Left Bank ...., but it is obvious that the Kremlin does not plan this, it is unlikely that the author will see his plans implemented in reality.

    Unfortunately, many of these "mistakes" were caused by objective circumstances.

    For example, the introduction of troops in 2014 would be a Pyrrhic victory (or do you think by chance that since 2014 we have been concerned about food security, the introduction of the NSPK, and so on?).
    In 2014, we could LITERALLY turn off all non-cash payments (and at the same time, by the way, the Internet) and, as a bonus, put us on a half-starved ration.

Imagine if the Americans, during the invasion of Iraq, built the entire operation on the battles for Kirkuk or Basra, and all the leaders of the third world would come to Baghdad without hindrance?! Remember that Slobodan Milosevic did not sign the surrender until the bombing of Belgrade became unbearable for the ladies who had to walk their pets. The army in Kosovo and Metohija certainly did not demand peace talks. Demolish Kyiv, because Hitler is sitting there, and burn Lvov, like Dresden, because of a message to Poland, and you will have victory. The snake hits itself on the head.

    The SVO had to start in 2014, and then it was possible to capture at least the entire South-East of Ukraine without big problems, and this is more than a third of it in terms of area and population, and even more in terms of GDP. The pretext was - the protection of the legally elected President Yanukovych and the Russian-speaking population from the nationalists. And it was necessary to prepare for possible Western sanctions in advance even after Putin's February speech in Munich (February 2007) and the first call from the West (Georgia's attack on South Ossetia in August 2008).

Back in the 20s of the last century, the national communists wanted to seize part of Russia for the reasons that this part was part of Novorossia.

Still need to take care of the rights of the Rusyns, who fought for them even before the revolution. They remember the Hungarians, who have been here for a week without a year - they came from behind the Volga.
