Well, howdy there, internet people, it's Beau again.
So today, we are going to talk about some developments
that have occurred in Ukraine.
And by developments that have occurred in Ukraine,
I really mean some things that are happening in Russia.
So, the Russian military has decided
to construct some defensive lines
near the border with Ukraine.
Some of them are inside Russian territory,
according to reporting.
They are building defensive lines in their own territory.
And this has led to a lot of humorous comments.
And yeah, I mean, sure, when your elective offensive war
goes so poorly that you are now constructing defensive positions
in your own country, yeah, that's a pretty bad sign.
But the question is, if you step back from it
and look at it objectively, is it a bad move?
No, it's not.
It's really not.
In fact, it may be the first Russian move that truly
reflects the reality on the ground. These positions, most of them, are designed to
disrupt armor movements, tanks, vehicles at least. Yeah, that makes sense. The
Ukrainian military has demonstrated a clear capability to move very quickly
over territory. And this defensive line reflects that. Putin is reportedly upset.
This has caused a rift inside the Kremlin because he didn't want it
publicized. Because this is one of those things that clearly demonstrates how
badly the war is going for Russia. So he didn't really want it talked about, but
news got out and he's angry about it. It is what it is. You can't construct
defensive lines without people knowing about it. Not this type anyway. But again
it's not a bad move. Here's a reality check for a lot of people. There is a
a Russian city, Belgarod, Ukraine has clearly demonstrated that it has the
capability to thunder run right into that city. No doubt in my mind that they
could do it. NATO is undoubtedly begging them not to and it's not a smart move
strategically because it would give Putin a lot of propaganda to use at home
to kind of rally the troops. So it's not a good idea. I don't think they'll do it.
But make no mistake about it, the only reason Belgarod doesn't look like a
Ukrainian town and it remains intact is because Ukraine allows it to remain that
way. They have the capability to thunder run right into that thing. There's no
doubt in my mind, they're choosing not to.
For those who are still buying the Russian propaganda lines of, oh, they're going to
bring out their good troops soon and all of that stuff, that's actually the reality on
the ground.
There is a Russian town that is 100% in jeopardy, and the only reason it doesn't have major
issues and Ukrainian troops standing in it is because Ukraine chooses to not do it.
These lines, yeah, it's humorous.
It's also probably one of the smarter moves Russia has made.
reflects the reality on the ground. I know there's been a cover story put out
saying that well it was for training. Yeah sure it was. I mean I totally believe
that. There's no way that you would normally conducted this kind of
training you know in the rear near the fighting so the line that's constructed
could be a fallback position. It's not like that's how that's normally done or
anything. This is just training. Nobody believes that. Anyway, it's just a thought. Y'all have a good day.
