Meanwhile, the Ukrainian counter-offensive that has not yet begun seems to be going badly.
So when is the Russian victory parade happening in Kyiv? Why no parade in Bakhmut, such a great victory, no?
Reality often makes its own adjustments to human plans, this is normal. I think now Russia is taking a wait-and-see attitude, giving Ukraine the opportunity to realize its offensive potential and spend the accumulated reserves in manpower and military equipment. When the Leopards and Offensive Guards are over, there will be an opportunity for Russia to demonstrate its strike potential. Yesterday, Mark Milley acknowledged that now there are at least three superpowers in the world (USA, Russia and China) and the modern world has essentially become multipolar, the era of US sole domination is over. Actually, this is what we are now fighting in Ukraine to declare a new world order and a new balance of power.
