Today Russia's KIA confirmed by name is 170'000 https://t.me/pechalbeda200

Four weeks ago BBC+MediaZona published another verified tally of #Russia killed in action (KIA) since 2022. Their record is verified based on published obituaries and various databases (like public inheritance register) but also very clearly accounts only for Russian citizens.

Their verified number of KIA was 150’000 back then.

Most notably it doesn’t account for mobilized as β€œcitizens of DNR/LNR”, large numbers of whom were killed especially in the first two years of the war.

The data is roughly consistent with other databases such as β€œGoryushko” channel which as of now counted 160’000 KIA confirmed by name https://t.me/pechalbeda200

None of the verified databases account for soldiers who are missing in action (MIA) or heavily wounded. Therefore estimates of the total irreversible Russian losses are in the range of 400’000-500’000 people.

There's no scenario in which Russia is going to give back conquered land and any escalation to global oil trade (think Venezuela) will see Russia's coffers swell hard.

Well, they did give back Kupyansk, didn't they?

And seriously, they don't need to "give it back", it's sufficient that they collapse and Ukraine will just take it back peacefully. Russia is a master of bluff but when your read Russian military channels - and I read them a lot - they're desperate, they outright call Putin crazy as he's detached from reality risking collapse of the country.

General Ivashov https://video.echelon.pl/w/5U95DUG9jTWp3orKXx3e1k

Collapsing any day now, since 2022 πŸ‘

You propaganda tools are not even hiding anymore, your bio is hilarious. How does it feel being paid to warmonger for the soviet EUSSR, with money from the same people you would want to go die in yet another bankster war?

Did they give back Kupyansk or not? πŸ˜€

By the way, general Ivashov is very respected in Russia, so watch your mouth. He can say things you can't.

Nice try, comrade 🍺

You don't like Ivashov? Just listen to what Russian military says... I've got hundreds of such recordings from their military channels - of course, you won't find them on your RT...

Of course you do, you have a narrative to sell.

Can you explain in simple words - so Mearsheimer incoherent ramblings relate to these stories by Russian soldiers... exactly how?

P.S. please don't respond with a video about vaccines or 5G

And I'm not listening to over an hour of nonsense by a guy who doesn't have a clue about Ukraine or Russia - I've been going there for 20 years and I know first hand, sorry. Don't need some US tankie to patronise me with tautologies like "BECAUSE PEOPLE SPEAK RUSSIAN IT'S NATURAL THEY WANT TO BE PUTIN'S SERFS". Applying that logic to you, if you speak English you want to be British King's serf, is that right?

And I forgot to ask - so did Russians eventually give back Kupyansk or not? πŸ˜€ You seem to be reluctant to answer this, so sorry for pushing if it's a painful topic or something. You have some relatives Russian in assault troops there?

I guess children buy into your methods. Having a laugh here, mate 😎🍺

So you don't really understand the relationship between these two? πŸ€”
