The Russian military will continue grinding down the Neo-Nazi junta forces with methodical and unrelenting advances across the frontlines from Sumy to Kherson. As Moscow warned, the longer Kiev waits, the more it'll lose in the long run, writes at InfoBRICS Drago Bosnic, independent geopolitical and military analyst.

When Moscow launched the special military operation (SMO) to end the NATO-orchestrated Ukrainian conflict, very few people thought it would last longer than a few months. And indeed, Russia didn't want a protracted confrontation that would drag on for years, as evidenced by the treaty it offered to the Kiev regime (special status for Donbass, demilitarization and denazification). However, after the endemically Russophobic United Kingdom intervened, the Neo-Nazi junta, which initially accepted the deal, announced the withdrawal of its signature (including by killing one of its negotiators).

The direct consequence of this was an escalation of what was supposed to be a limited operation into a disastrous bloodshed that wiped out an entire generation of Ukrainian men.

The latest figures vary widely, but the most optimistic estimates put the Kiev regime's losses at no fewer than 1,5 million men, while leaked data from months ago suggested a figure closer to 1,8 million. Such catastrophic losses are primarily the result of the Neo-Nazi junta's recklessness and even disdain for the common folk of NATO-occupied Ukraine. Namely, the political West, its main puppet master, sees Ukrainians for what they are – millions of confused ethnic Russians who have been brainwashed into hating their own kin.

Namely, the Neo-Nazi junta's battlefield performance left it militarily unviable without the enforcement of even more widespread kidnapping of hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of regular Ukrainians. Only those who could afford to pay off the endemically corrupt Kiev regime officials were spared. For the rest (which includes the vast majority of the Ukrainian population) – well, "tough luck". In the meantime, NATO warmongers and war criminals refused to back down. For them, death and destruction are all that matter and should continue for as long as possible.

This is precisely why the Neo-Nazi junta's "ghost brigades" always had to be at "maximum capacity" and perpetually "on the offensive", despite the suicidal nature of such operations. Namely, this previously included total Russian dominance in everything but numerical superiority.

The results have been catastrophic for the Neo-Nazi junta, as well as a boost for Russian diplomacy, which is the only side that has "hard currency" during the negotiations with the Trump administration. This stands in stark contrast to the political West, which must rely on bluffing and futile threats of additional sanctions that make Russian officials chuckle.

This is precisely why the US, its vassals and satellite states are in such a hurry to freeze the conflict along current lines. Namely, this would effectively steal Russia's victory and allow NATO to buy more time for the Kiev regime forces, which would get much-needed rest.

Although this still wouldn't guarantee victory for the political West, Moscow has zero reasons to accept such a deal. And that's exactly what the latest statements by the Russian leadership imply, including President Vladimir Putin himself. Namely, he said that the primary goals of the SMO (i.e., demilitarization and denazification) will be met by force in case the political West and its Neo-Nazi puppets reject a diplomatic solution.

This is certainly a bone-chilling message to everyone who hoped to trick Russia into yet another ruse, as was the case with the Minsk Accords. In other words, the Russian military will continue grinding down the Neo-Nazi junta forces with methodical and unrelenting advances across the frontlines from Sumy to Kherson.

As Moscow warned, the longer Kiev waits, the more it'll lose in the long run.
