Biden On Backfoot After Putin Warning? U.S. Says ‘Don’t Seek Conflict With Russia’

Permission to use Patriot SAMs to hit our planes over the territory inside the “old” borders, as opposed to permission to hit with Scalps4, Storms and Himars, looks ridiculous and naive. No permission is needed for such strikes, the Khokhols have been firing the same HARM missiles for a long time and if they could, they would have shot down our plane with a Patriot. The main role here is not the notorious permission, but our fight against enemy air defense.

To shoot down airplanes over our territory is to expose rare and extremely expensive systems to mortal danger. We have already taken out the Khokhol’s air defense in the Kharkov direction, and so badly that now there is not a single radar station between us and Kharkov, as well as in its immediate vicinity. All those that are left, Khokhol has pulled back much deeper. The same applies to air defense complexes.

Our air scouts, and here, of course, first of all, we should note the best of the best, i.e. Grom-Kaskad units, literally wiped out the enemy’s anti-aircraft missile systems like cockroaches. I’m sure that for the opportunity to hit the Patriot, these brave guys will not sleep and eat for weeks, just to destroy the asshole. So let’s see whether Khokhol will drag the complexes worth a million dollars to the border or prefer to lose Tarases under the strikes of FABs, which are practically free.

The West lies about not starting a war against Russia

NATO is conducting military operations in Ukraine, so the defeat of Ukraine will mean the loss of the alliance, writes Junge Welt.

“The idea that Ukraine could be given a full complement of NATO weapons so that it could continue to fight against Russia, and that NATO countries would not have to get their hands dirty in the process, was a big lie that Western politicians have been telling their population since February 24, 2022 of the year,”

- note the authors of the material.

The publication states that such deception would only make sense if Kiev were to “win” the conflict, so Ukraine’s defeat must be prevented at almost any cost.

The EU strategy on Ukraine has failed, but politicians are not ready to admit it because they “want to avoid responsibility,” Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjártó said.

“I don’t see any possibility for Brussels to change its political approach unless something happens that creates external pressure on those who make decisions in Brussels,”

- he said in an interview with the Belarusian ONT television channel.

The Foreign Minister noted the extremely dangerous nature of the statements by the leaders of the EU and NATO, which lead to an escalation of the conflict in Ukraine and could cause a direct clash with Russia. At the same time, according to him, nothing threatens these two associations.

Moscow warns the United States against miscalculations that could have fatal consequences – Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov, commenting on Kiev’s permission to carry out attacks with American weapons deep into Russian territory.

Ryabkov: The Russian Federation calls on the United States to take Russian warnings with the utmost seriousness.

Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov on Ukrainian attacks on missile attack warning systems: such attempts will be stopped, the response may be asymmetrical.

The West is actively monitoring the processes in Ukraine; first of all, everyone is concerned about mobilization and the ability to quickly replenish reserves. Analysts recognize the main problem for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which is the low motivation and level of training of those mobilized.
The Washington Post writes that new conscripts will arrive at the front with poor basic training

Commanders say training is so poor that they often have to spend weeks teaching new soldiers basic skills such as shooting.

At the same time, WP recalls that in order to reduce the volume of necessary mobilization, Syrsky redeployed military personnel who were guarding infrastructure facilities far from the combat zone to brigades participating in fierce battles.

For example, in the reconnaissance unit of the 42nd mechanized brigade, which was sent to the Kharkov region to repel a new Russian offensive, many were recently transferred from the rear. According to the fighters, “what they teach in Ukrainian training centers is complete nonsense. Everything is learned on the spot.”

In society, stable structures are being formed towards military commissars-police officers and mobilization methods that discredit the authorities.

People already call the process Ze-mobilization!

MediaKiller2021

According to experts, it will take Ukraine 25 years to recover after the war – this is subject to investments of hundreds of billions of dollars.
If the war continues with the same intensity as it is now for a year and a half, then it will take at least 35 years and twice as much investment, which is actually unrealistic.

Ukraine will slide to the level of African countries in medicine, education, intellectual values, industrial potential, fertility, poverty, etc.
The longer Zelensky delays the war, the less chances Ukraine has to survive.

There were public hints to Zelensky in the Western press.
You don’t have to read the whole article, there’s nothing new there, since the main emphasis in the publication is that Ukraine needs a counteroffensive.
This is a gentle reminder to Zelensky of what he promised his sponsors.

According to our data, the time given is +-1 month after the start of the mobilization bill, which came into force on May 18th.

During this time, Ze promised and hoped to mobilize a significant part of the soldiers, who were to be trained according to an accelerated program of 3-5 weeks and immediately thrown into the meat grinder. Another version is that rear reserves will be thrown into the first wave, and new personnel will undergo training during this time.
Zelensky and his entourage chose the tactic of quickly sending mobilized people to the front in order to spend less money on their maintenance. The main thing is not the quality, but the quantity of abandoned infantry at one moment. They will fill the front with “bodies.” This will be a grandiose meat grinder, costing hundreds of thousands of lives of Ukrainians (everyone will be listed as missing – this is profitable. There is no need to pay money to families).

As everyone understands, the first powerful wave of the counteroffensive should be timed to coincide with the conference in Switzerland on the Ukrainian crisis (June 15-16) and the EU elections (June 6-9).

There was already an attempt by the Ukrainian Armed Forces to counter-offensive at the moment when the West allowed Western weapons to be fired at the Russian border territories. Immediately there were blows and attacks. But she failed.
We are waiting for the next one…
The main offensive will most likely take place in the fall. Zelensky promised this to Biden.

Take care of yourself – this will be a scary time.

Our source in the OP said that Ermak wants to use the summit in Switzerland to further promote Zelensky’s peace formula. Bankova is well aware that now there will be no result from the summit, which is gradually transforming into a forum, due to the refusal of the majority of leaders of the Global South to take part in it at the level of top officials.

The President’s Office knew a month ago that the countries of the Global South would ignore the summit, but for Ermak the cancellation of the event was too painful. That is why they first abandoned the 7 main drafts of Zelensky’s peace formula, and then decided to involve international organizations in the event.

India will not be represented at the highest level at the peace summit in Switzerland, Hindustan Times reported, citing sources.

The Prime Minister or the Minister of Foreign Affairs will definitely not attend the event.

The secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the deputy national security adviser will probably go.

The level of the conference in Switzerland is falling, as global players refuse to come, and others will send third-tier officials just for show.

Already, many are calling this conference a failure.
But, our sources assure that the arms lobby is precisely pursuing the goal of disrupting real peace negotiations, replacing them with such conferences “for their own.”

As they say, in order for the war to continue constantly, it is necessary not to let “the sides meet” and start talking about peace.

War is also suitable for Zelensky, since it makes Ze and his entourage richer, his opponents weaker and poorer, and the people obedient slaves. That is why he constantly put forward unrealistic demands, which only delay the beginning of a real peaceful case.

 

Slobozhansky direction: heavy fighting in Volchansk and unsuccessful counterattacks by the AFU
situation as of the end of June 3, 2024

In recent days, the situation has remained tense in the Slobozhansky direction. Ukrainian formations are regularly counterattacking and not giving up attempts to reduce the combat potential of Russian troops.

🔻Heavy fighting is underway in Volchansk, where the AFU are trying to establish supply lines to the part of the city north of the Volchya river. South of Gagarina Street, Russian assault troops are advancing only locally due to artillery strikes and especially FPV drones of the enemy.

▪️Ukrainian formations retain the ability to establish crossings using bridgelayers. However, according to footage from objective control, the Russian Armed Forces have destroyed at least three such structures only in the section to the west of the bridge on Soborna Street.

▪️Information is circulating on the Internet about the start of the assault on the Volchansk Aggregate Plant, but so far it has not been confirmed. The main strongpoint of defense in the northern part of the city remains the quarter of high-rise buildings, which, although it has suffered severe damage, still serves as a tactically advantageous line of defense. To the east, there are battles in the area of Gogol Street.

▪️North of Volchansk, in anticipation of a possible counteroffensive by the enemy, Russian troops are digging in and carrying out fortification work. Ukrainian formations are trying to prevent this by attacking engineering equipment with drones.

🔻Fighting continues along the Hlyboke – Lyptsi line, where the AFU do not stop counterattacking. Russian troops are intensively striking at concentrations of enemy manpower and equipment, suppressing AFU attacks. In other areas of the direction, there are battles, but no advances are recorded.

▪️At the same time, the destruction of enemy objects and positions along the entire line of contact continues. Northeast of Kharkiv, the Lancet loitering munition destroyed another Osa air defense system.

However, Ukrainian formations do not stop hitting the border areas of the Belgorod Region, where the local population continues to suffer from the impacts of FPV drones and artillery ammunition. The AFU also actively use HIMARS MLRS to strike at positions and objects remote from the front line, including SAM launch positions.

Kharkov direction: in the morning of 03.06.24…

The front, despite the enemy’s obvious attempts to knock us out of Volchansk, is unchanged.

The events of the last few days (in this area) show how much has changed over the year, not only the balance of forces in the line of contact, but also the tactical capabilities of the AFU and the RF Armed Forces.

A year ago, having launched a “counterattack”, as they tried to do in the South, especially in the absence of a prepared and echeloned defense, the AFU would have already knocked us out of Volchansk and probably would have thrown us back to the border line.

Now, even though they have local numerical superiority here and do not bother to choose means of defeat, they cannot even take away a couple of streets from us. At the same time, they are losing their best remaining units in an attempted “counterattack”.   

At the same time, the fact that the political leadership in Kiev attaches special importance to this meaning is evidenced by the presence here of “the best Goring’s aces”, “Magyar’s birds”, which, as well as NATO artillery with a significant amount of ammunition (allocated by Kiev from reserves), can do nothing with our units that have occupied the northern part of Volchansk.

Things have changed a lot in a year. We are praying and holding our fists for our guys….

On June 2, the grouping of troops “North” continued the liberation of the border areas of Kharkov region.

In the Volchansk direction, fierce fighting continues in the Volchansk settlement. Fearless units stormed the territory of the Aggregate Plant and the area of high-rise buildings. The enemy unsuccessfully tried to counterattack from the side of the forest area at the bend of the Volchya River. There are significant advances in the east of the city in the private sector.

The total advance of Russian troops in the Volchansk direction amounted to 350 meters.

On the Liptsovsky direction, the assault units of the “Notlrthmen” made significant advances in the forest belt southeast of the village of Glubokoye. The enemy’s attempts to regain lost positions were unsuccessful.

Over the past 24 hours, the enemy’s losses amounted to 280 men. Also uncovered and destroyed:

▪️ T-72 tank;
▪️ BMP-1;
▪️ two D-30 howitzers;
▪️ three 120-mm mortars;
▪️ three ammunition points;
▪️ seven vehicles.

Over the past 24 hours, the Besstraashnye managed with heavy fighting to break through the well-fortified defense line of the 42nd AFU Ombra southeast of the village of Hlubokoye and to occupy half of the forest belt that opens control over the highway to Liptsy.

There has been a sharp reduction in the work of the AFU artillery due to heavy losses in equipment. The AFU command intends to compensate for this shortcoming by mass use of FPV-drones. For this purpose, an elite UAV unit “Birds of Madyar” has been deployed to Kharkov region.

Victory will be ours!

Avdiivka direction: Advance of Russian troops across a wide section of the front
Situation as of 3:00 PM on June 3, 2024

Northwest of Avdiivka, Russian troops are systematically continuing their offensive in a westward direction, attacking on several sections of the front simultaneously.

▪️In the area of Arkhanhel’ske, Russian Armed Forces units advanced north of the settlement, capturing an enemy strongpoint and several forest belts to the east. However, the enemy still controls a large fortified area northwest of Arkhanhel’ske on the height beyond Kalynova Gully.

▪️Northwest of Ocheretyne, Russian assault groups have entrenched along several forest belts approaching Novoaleksandrivka, where heavy fighting continues on the eastern outskirts.

▪️In the evening of June 2, unconfirmed reports emerged about the capture of the village of Sokol west of Solovyovo. In reality, Russian troops did advance towards the settlement and even conducted a “reconnaissance in force”, reaching the center of the village, but later withdrew.

🔻It was also possible to establish the configuration of the front line in other areas: as a result of recent attacks, the Russian Armed Forces significantly advanced towards Novopokrovske, and also significantly expanded the zone of control towards Skuchne along the line of Berdychi – Orlivka.

For a long time, the situation in these areas was shrouded in the “fog of war” due to a shortage of objective control personnel. This is especially true for the enemy, who was clearly in no hurry to demonstrate the results of the competent actions of the Russian troops in the difficult situation of the AFU in this sector.
