Russian diplomacy in a changing world
http://russiaeu.ru/en/news/foreign-minister-sergey-lavrovs-article-razvedchik-intelligence-officer-news-magazine-march

Russia Foreign Minister LAVROV: "To tell the truth, we no longer have any illusions about converging with Europe, being accepted as part of the “common European home,” or creating a “common space” with the EU. All these declarations made in European capitals have turned out to be a myth and a false-flag operation.

The latest developments have clearly shown that the ramified network of mutually beneficial trade, economic and investment ties between Russia and the EU were not a safety net. The EU did not think twice about sacrificing our energy cooperation, which was a pillar of their prosperity.

We have seen that the European elites have no independence and always do whatever they are ordered to do in Washington, even if this results in direct damage to their own citizens. We take this reality into account in our foreign policy planning."

Ukraine needs long-range air defense to protect from Russian guided bombs

Russia is increasingly using relatively accurate glide bombs that have a range of 50-70km.
- Russia is increasingly using it's air force now that the Ukrainian air defence has been largely destroyed.

Ukraine is losing this war.

Ukrainian air defense missiles to run out by May – WSJ
http://www.rt.com/russia/574478-ukraine-air-defense-out/

"Ukraine will run out of most of its anti-air missiles by May, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday, citing classified Pentagon documents leaked on social media. Facing the prospect of Russian air superiority, Kiev has been asking for more air defense systems from the West for months.

According to a purported Pentagon presentation dated February 28, Ukraine is expending around 69 Buk missiles and 200 S-300 missiles per month, the newspaper reported. At this rate of fire, Kiev’s forces will be out of Buk ammunition by the end of this week, and will deplete its S-300 stockpile by May 3, it said.

Sourcing missiles for these Soviet-built platforms is proving difficult for Kiev and its Western backers. In their place, Ukraine has received three German Iris-T and eight American NASAMS anti-air systems. However, these systems consume around 64 missiles per month, and their limited number cannot cover as much territory as Ukraine’s S-300s, according to the document."

Ukraine May Run Out of Air Defenses by May, Leaked Pentagon Documents Warn

AC,

That the West is suffering more than Russia from the sanctions is a delusion. Russia has lost more than half its oil and gas revenues, and other payments and taxes have fallen drastically too. The government is running about a $40bn deficit every month, and considering that the Russian economy is about the size of Australia's that will wipe out Russia's reserves by the end of the year and no one will lend them a penny.

As for Russia's glide bombs, they only dropped a few and their specs compared to the US bombs are pathetic. They get 40km after being dropped from 50 000 feet, and so far have an accuracy of 100m.
Another dud.

Ukraine has dozens of anti-aircraft missile systems and if they are due to run out in May will get new supplies in April.

Russia is getting its arse kicked.

Ukraine cant win.
Maybe they will get to Melitopol but then what?
You think they can get bogged down trying to take a city like Russia has done taking Bakhmut?
Ukraine already lacks weapons and ammunition now, when it's gone there won't be any more.
Not to mention that Russia has been increasing its use of air power because Ukraine has no more air defense.
And the better Ukraine does in this upcoming counteroffensive, the more political capital Russias leaders will have to further mobilise more troops and put itself on more of a war economy mobilising people and their war industry.

And ultimately China will assist Russia if necessary.
The more China assists Russia in Ukraine, the more the West has to drawdown from it's own depleted stockpiles and the less it has to fight a war with China, as well as that China can test it's own weaponry in combat.
And if Russia does face economic problems China will bail them out as Russia winning in Ukraine is part of Chinas strategic interests, which is proven by the fact that Xi hasn't visited Zelensky, or even picked up the phone yet.

Ukraine's Coming Offensive: Leaked NATO Plans + Lack of Arms
http://youtu.be/iBU74rUubi4

Russia has taken on 31 NATO countries in Ukraine.
Ukraine isn't winning in a war of territorial conquest or the war of attrition either.
They're following orders from Washington, warmongers who are hysterical over Ukraine and removing Putin, and who refuse to negotiate because they've spent decades trying to get this situation started and are willing to sacrifice every Ukrainian if the have to and even sacrifice European energy interests because this is the closest they've ever gotten to taking out Putin, who they despise.

They thought they'd take out Putin, install a Pro-western leader and divide Russia up into smaller states subservient to Washington and then move on to China.
- But they have no chance of achieving these aims.
It's a fools errand, they will lose both militarily and economically.
It will be the end of the western rules-based unipolar order.

This isn't the Kharkov counteroffensive where Russian forces were spread thin and had no established lines of defense.
Russia has well established lines of defense, and are well prepared for the upcoming Ukrainian counteroffensive.

I imagine they're going to try to cut the land bridge to Crimea, and then once they have troops close enough they will try to attack the Kersh bridge to try to prevent reinforcements from mainland Russia to Crimea with long range missiles.

Even now I think they have to delay the counteroffensive because Russia blew up 70k tonnes of fuel in Zaporizhzhia a few days ago.
- Not to mention Russia will launch its own offensive once Bakhmut has been taken and the ground dries out a little more, which is getting closer every day.

Russia says it has destroyed 70,000-tonne fuel depot near Zaporizhzhia
