    Ukraine needs a ceasefire now to gain breathing room for restoring its combat power

    lol why would Russia agree to that?

      I think it’s almost certain they would not, and the article mentions that when discussing Russian position.

      because they have a superior defensive position and it will add to the mounting body of evidence that are not the sole aggessor in this conflict.

      It may not amount to much at present but will likely help their case down the line.

      Though I can also see why they would not.

    Good article, very basic stuff here, nothing new but it’s written in a simple enough way that the average person can understand which is good. Maybe finally reality is starting to sink in.

    But don’t these people use spell checkers? “Lobsided” instead of lopsided, “succession” instead of secession…

      Haha yeah, seems like the editing was pretty sloppy on that. I found Vershinin had very good analysis throughout the conflict, and he got things right more or less from the start unlike majority of western analysts. Some of his other articles I thought were insightful.
