Why the liberation of Kupyansk is of strategic importance for the course of the NWO

20

During the large-scale Ukrainian counteroffensive, when the enemy is trying to gnaw through our defenses simultaneously in several strategically important areas, quite unexpectedly for many, Russian troops have already switched to their own counteroffensive in the south of the Kharkov region. Why, then, did the RF Armed Forces target Kupyansk specifically, and why could the successful liberation of this relatively small city, located not far from the Russian border, mean a radical change in the course of the NMD?

Revenge for "regrouping"


Kupyansk is a regional center in the east of Ukraine, located about 70 kilometers from our Belgorod region. The city is of great strategic importance, as it is a major railway center. Unfortunately, Kupyansk, and along with it such cities as Izyum, Balakleya and a little later - Krasny Liman, were abandoned by Russian troops during the previous large-scale counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Then the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation simply did not have enough strength to hold such a wide front, where there were motley and unconnected units and subdivisions of the People's Militia of the LPR, the Russian Guard, BARS and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. I had to hastily retreat, avoiding the threat of being surrounded and destroyed.



In September 2022, the Armed Forces of Ukraine managed to squeeze out Russian troops from almost the entire territory of the Kharkiv region in just three days, after which the Ukrainian Nazis carried out extrajudicial reprisals against the pro-Russian population there, for which they have yet to answer. That infamous "regrouping" caused great disappointment among our patriotic part of the public and even greater enthusiasm among the Ukrainian jingoistic patriots, who were convinced of the invincibility of their army. As we know, in the summer of 2023 this played a cruel joke on the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

At present, the RF Armed Forces are launching their own counteroffensive against Kupyansk with fairly large forces. Why there?

break point


It just so happened that it was the Kupyanskaya offensive operation, if the city could be quickly liberated, that could change a lot during the special operation in favor of Russia.

At first, the offensive right there, in the north-east of Ukraine, is of tactical importance right now, when the Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to gnaw through our defenses in the Zaporozhye direction. The Ukrainian army, thanks to the ongoing mobilization, again has a significant numerical advantage over the Russian one. With this, Kyiv managed to eliminate the parity that was formed after the decision to conduct partial mobilization in the RF Armed Forces in September 2022.
Pressing on a sore point in the northeast, the Russian General Staff is forcing the Ukrainian to withdraw combat-ready units from other directions and transfer free reserves there, facilitating the task of our 58th army.

Secondly, the liberation of Kupyansk, if it takes place now, will be of great strategic importance. On the one hand, the road to Izyum, Balakleya, and then to Barvenkovo ​​will open from Kupyansk. If these settlements can be taken under the control of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, then a further operation to encircle the largest and most powerful group of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, holding the Slavyansko-Kramatorsk agglomeration, will become possible. The sad experience of taking Artemovsk in Prigozhin's way showed the complete counterproductiveness of such an approach due to the colossal number of casualties on both sides and the almost complete destruction of the liberated cities.

To liberate Donbass, it will be necessary to reliably cut off all supply routes for the AFU grouping and force them out of there with fighting, forcing them to leave while there is such an opportunity. On the other hand, from Izyum and Balakleya, it will be possible to create a bridgehead in the south of the Kharkov region for the subsequent blockade of Kharkov. To take a one and a half million metropolis by head-on assault is a frankly insane idea, therefore it will be necessary to liberate the cities by encircling them and blockading them. To close it around the huge Kharkov, you will also have to first create a bridgehead in the south of the Sumy region. You can read more about the tactics of liberating cities without "meat grinders" at link.

Thirdly, the liberation of Kupyansk will have tremendous symbolic significance. The Russian army will be able to take revenge on the Ukrainian one for last year’s “regrouping”, and also put in place the presumptuous Mr. Prigozhin, who allowed himself extremely impartial and frankly boorish statements about our military. About what awaits him PMC "Wagner" in the event that she decides to fight in Africa on the side of Niger, we will certainly talk separately.

The most important result of the liberation of Kupyansk may be precisely the fact that large settlements and cities can indeed be liberated by the method of encirclement and subsequent siege with squeezing out the garrisons of the Armed Forces of Ukraine or forcing them to surrender without bloody frontal assaults.

    While the first point looks real, the rest of the appendages are without significance. What our strategists ("jackets" and other inmates) are thinking about is a mystery to everyone, because the actions to achieve victory are chaotic and illogical. The fact that the war has passed into the second year and does not seem to end in the second year, the question arises, what is NWO.

    Is it necessary, dear author, to understand you this way: that there will be no assault on Kupyansk, but the city will be surrounded, blocked and we will wait until it surrenders? There will certainly be civilians there and we risk being accused of starving them. Are we going to feed them? If we do not attack the city, its defenders will not have to waste ammunition. And if the besieged have food and ammunition, why should they surrender? Yes, spending 224 days and 20 thousand killed on Artemovsk is not the height of tactical skill and does not ensure a swift offensive. But to block all the settlements that fell into the offensive zone bypassing them? How much power will it take?

    What is 76 years old? This is a yellow leaf on a tree that is about to fall to the ground. The question remains - Do the Russians want wars? After all, we have people with a call to imprison people who are against war, as such. We are Russians. There are five cafes around me. And the inscriptions are all in English. From 20,00 to 3.00 there is a holiday. It is not clear what they are celebrating. But there is a lot of noise. Do the Poles want war? As soon as the subpoenas were handed out to citizens, 500 people marched in Warsaw with Russian slogans. True, the Western press wrote that they came out in support of democracy. It is a pity that we have covered this so little. Judging by what is happening now, only politicians and a small handful of people have a desire to fight. And most importantly, not in fear of death. There is simply no clear answer anywhere in the world - Why.

    most likely, the "jackets" and other inmates have no plans to liberate territories other than Donbass, in order to do this, at least one more mobilization must be carried out, and the authorities say that this is not necessary.

    So yes, the entry from the north means a threat to Izyum and Balakleya. Kyiv also understands this, because apparently these cities are intensively preparing for defense. Whether there will be a real threat to the Slavic-Kramatorsk fortification will be shown in the 24th year. For a strategic operation in the direction of Kharkov, even more than 200 thousand people are needed, well-armed and with combat experience, I don’t think that in the 24th year Moscow will have such a resource at hand, again, there are a lot of prerequisites for freezing the conflict by summer, which is apparently very The Kremlin expects and will not take such a significant number of working citizens out of the economy.

    The main thing to write
    Why the liberation of Kupyansk is of strategic importance for the course of the NWO
    and when they are released, and suddenly they will not be released, but it will be later and few will remember what was discussed earlier.
    In this sentence, instead of the word Kupyanska, you can write Kharkov, etc.
    No one knows about the purpose of the NWO, about the strategy of silence, it seems that it does not exist.
    The capabilities are minimal, they are only enough for defense, see the statements of the General Staff.
    There is only one hope of victory, at least a small one.

    Somehow, probably a month ago, he wrote about the cessation of shelling of Shebekino: Well, if something is done for Shebekino, then this is to cut off the northern Luhansk grouping of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from Kharkov along the line of the left bank of the Seversky Donets, which is very convenient for defending the flank from Kharkov, because most of it is occupied not just by a river, but by a reservoir and further to Kupyansk. Wouldn't there be 100 thousand troops with weapons. But in case of success, the Armed Forces of Ukraine would have a huge hole at the front.

    At the same time, it would be difficult for Ukrainian troops to defend Kupyansk.

    quite unexpectedly for many, Russian troops have already gone over to their own counteroffensive in the south of the Kharkov region

    Pretty strange statement. For a few, this was truly unexpected. It is obvious that such an offensive was conceived even before the withdrawal from the territories of the Kharkov and Kherson regions. The entire plan for the summer campaign of 2023 developed by Surovikin was designed precisely for this.
    1. Retraction of the Armed Forces of Ukraine into the cutting for Artemovsk, which is rather pointless for them.
    2. Building a defense line in depth in the south.
    3. Acceptable positions for an offensive in the north in the Kharkov region.
    The obviousness of just such a development of events is clear to anyone who played "Cossacks-robbers" a couple of times in childhood. Special thanks to Popov for preparing the army to repel the "counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine" in the south and for the stubborn defense at its first stage. Without Popov, the situation has become more tense, but there are still a few kilometers to the first line of defense of the AFRF, at the point that is the closest to it for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. God forbid and the VSRF will not reach.

    That is, it is this strategist who should be thanked for the pro-Russian inhabitants of the Kharkiv region who were tortured and killed by the Ukrainian Nazis?
    And several hundred units of Russian armored vehicles were thrown near Izyum purely to divert attention so that the Armed Forces of Ukraine would relax?

      For this we must thank the strategists who started the NWO. If you still remember the beginning of the NWO, then you should understand that the AFRF were not going to fight. The purpose of the operation was the implementation of the agreement concluded between unknown representatives of Ukraine and Russia on the seizure of power in Ukraine by opponents of Ukraine's entry into NATO. The implementation failed because on the part of Ukraine, no one was going to fulfill this agreement, and

      opponents of Ukraine's accession to NATO

      turned out to be bogus from NATO or from the United States. Who, how and with whom they agreed there forgot to tell us. An attempt to conclude a peace treaty and improve the situation failed B. Johnson in March 2022 and the Russian army ended up on the territory of Ukraine not ready for war with an enemy superior in number and weapons. The only way out in such a situation is "leveling the front line", or, in a simple way, running with your pants down. Which was successfully done. It is always the generals who win, but the soldiers always lose. After that, Surovikin's llan came into action, which led to the current situation, in which the Armed Forces of Ukraine have not relaxed at all, but are conducting an active, but so far unsuccessful offensive in the south and an active, but so far also unsuccessful resistance in the north. A successful offensive and defense of the AFRF requires, unfortunately, one more partial mobilization, because. Ukraine has already begun to carry out total mobilization and receive additional weapons from NATO worth billions of dollars, and it is unlikely that it will be possible to throw hats at it.

    I immediately recognize Marzhetsky's handwriting. For example, in this sentence:

    The sad experience of taking Artemovsk in Prigozhin's way showed the complete counterproductiveness of this approach due to the colossal number of casualties on both sides and the almost complete destruction of the liberated cities

    Can the author suggest a different style of fighting in the current situation? Or did the author not read Prigozhin, who explained the essence of the Bakhmut meat grinder many times in Russian?
    It is thanks to that very Bakhmut meat grinder that now the forces of Banderstat are far from the same. It was in Artemovsk that the enemy's army was broken, and by the summer they came already very bled. and the current FAILURE of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was prepared by the heroic battle in Artemovsk. Developed by Surovikin and Prigozhinsky commanders, this operation allows, thanks to the colossal losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, to now keep the front line exactly where it is now, and not near Armeniansk, for example, or somewhere near Mariupol,

      Sergei do not distort the facts.

      this is bullshit. there, from the Ukrainian side, they were grinding the defense. with ours, he knocked out 20 thousand men killed and even more wounded. sense of strategic zero.

      Firstly, this meat grinder is not a whim of Prigozhin, and secondly, he did not set the combat mission of liberating Artemovsk for himself, but for him the Ministry of Defense determined it. in the third, large losses during an attack are automatically large, and the Wagnerites did not fight with a margin of one to three, but even with smaller forces. And it would be okay if there was normal software, the telegram is full of videos recorded even in the spring, when Prigozhin asks for shells from the Moscow Region in this and that way. He even showed our guys who died during the day due to a lack of shells. there were also cases when shells were handed over to him from other sectors of the front. And after all this, accusing Prigozhin of his allegedly cannibalistic essence is the height of cynicism.

    This is NWO, not war. So far, I see that both the Kremlin and the Moscow Region with the General Staff were not preparing at all for such a beginning as it was. And they won't tell us what happened there. All our reasoning here - as well as on the grandmother's bench. There is someone to command there, to make political decisions - there is also someone. There is Mishustin to launch the production of the necessary, and Nabiullina, "target inflation." This CBO is on a regimen of minimizing costs, effort and resources whenever possible. Both sides (not the outskirts, the West and Russia) are not yet fighting for real, no one has yet blocked oxygen for anyone, and they avoid the fatal use of nuclear weapons. This is a war of survival, and Kharkov and Kiev may not even reach at all, for the Kremlin the main thing is to make the territory 404 safe for Russia, and when and how, they themselves do not yet know, and there are no mechanisms yet either. Let those who can escape from there flee, and those who cannot be left to live die. And the economy is no longer there, the government is a puppet. But imagine cities with a million inhabitants, but without power, you won’t envy ... And you won’t need to take it with a fight. It is necessary that the West finally abandon this puppet power of theirs. Someday this will happen ... In the meantime, snap and attack where you can.

    For some reason, it doesn’t seem to me yet that the pressure of the RF Armed Forces in the Kupyat area should be considered a full-fledged counteroffensive. there had been a large group of troops there for a long time. it seems that the Kremlin has chosen a strategy of wearing down the enemy, incl. psychologically, because if you put yourself in the place of the command of the whole, you can feel that this grouping of troops in the Kupyansk direction must be becoming an unpleasant mental and intellectual background for their strategists, when it seems that it is necessary to attack in the south, and there, it seems, something dangerous is planned in Kupyansk .. and these areas are far from each other. so the Kremlin has chosen, it seems to me, a rather ingenious model of influencing the enemy. and the secret here is that the Kremlin realized that for the West, which gives all weapons, the only important goal is Crimea, or a threat to Crimea when cutting off the land corridor. in the rest of the territory they do not know, in general, it may not matter. and therefore the government of the Kiev regime is on a stretch: - on the one hand, Zelensky, as a populist, is paranoid about the defeat in the information PR war by some obvious failure at the front due to the offensive of the growing troops, and would like to prevent this at any cost, and therefore would like to defend kupyansk and any other direction from a possible threat; but on the other hand, the West beats him on the hands and reminds him that he gave him weapons not so that he would defend Kupyansk, but in order to take Crimea from the Russian Federation or threaten it.
    now they would seem to have to abandon the counteroffensive in order to save forces and protect the front, transfer more forces to Kupyansk, but at the same time they are forced to continue to drive the main forces to attack in the south because the West wants it, and other directions and Zelensky’s reputation as a PR man Ukraine is no longer so important.
    the Kremlin apparently understands this nuance, and therefore gets on the nerves of the Khakhlyatsky command with this pressure on another sector of the front.
    although, of course, reinforcements will be transferred there, and this will ease the pressure in the south. whether Russia will really attack there in the near future is not yet clear. so this game on the nerves of the Kyiv regime can continue as long as it is profitable.

    To implement what the author described, a million-strong army is needed, which we do not have. Under these conditions, it seems that in order to achieve the goals of liberating the territories, it is necessary to strike a blow at the leadership, i.e. decapitate the Armed Forces of Ukraine, including the political leadership. Lukashenka said that at the beginning of the operation, Zelensky hid in the cellar. Here it is necessary to drive him there again at least.

    Why the liberation of Kupyansk is of strategic importance for the course of the NWO

    Ah xs. Maybe there is a headquarters? Or government agencies for defense management? Maybe the capital was moved there? What is the meaning of Kupyansk? Yes, in nothing, some successes appeared in that direction, and that’s all. We will procrastinate this topic to divert from other areas, that's all it matters.
