The book which was a Swedish book had the end title(I think) ....Seger=Victory

So I made a search and found a book called The Road to Victory
Except this if from 2000/2001 And I am pretty sure I read this book some decades earlier.

The build up of this huge machinery started already in 1942/3.

I don't think people knew how huge and complex it was.

Back to discuss War in Ukraine.

Putin knows about retreat of Russian troops in Ukraine, - Peskov

The military command of the Russian Federation informs the Russian dictator Putin about the "regrouping of Russian troops" in Ukraine.

This was stated by Putin's press secretary Dmytrii Peskov on Mayak radio, Censor.NET informs.

"Of course, everything that happens, any actions taken by the military during the "special operation" are reported to the Supreme Commander-in-Chief. The President (Putin. - Ed.) is in constant, one might say round-the-clock communication with the Minister of Defense, and with all military commanders. Of course, it cannot be otherwise during the implementation of a "special military operation," said the Kremlin spokesman.

According to Peskov, the so-called "special operation" continues and will continue "until the goals that were originally set are achieved." Source: https://censor.net/en/n3366632

Russia: Damn NATO is beating us
USA: Let's send Ukraine like a terribly small amount of our weapons and some cash to help and see what they could do with it.
Ukraine: Hold my beer...

Rumors/reports of the frontline in Kherson, Russian units are surrendering, they apparently shot through the last of their ammo last night.

[Dargo]

As Russia suffered its most humiliating defeat since the initial stage of the war in Ukraine, cracks emerged in the official narrative as lawmakers and pundits on state television cast doubt on Moscow’s prospects.

While some urged the Kremlin to start peace negotiations, others demanded that its forces double down. The divergence of views, even on tightly controlled state television networks, highlighted how Moscow’s narrative has quickly shifted from a conviction that it was only a matter of time before Russia subjugated Ukraine to a sense of alarm over the rapid progress of Kyiv’s forces. And it was a contrast from the muted response after Russia’s drive to take Kyiv failed in the spring.

On Friday, as the Russian front line in northeastern Ukraine collapsed, Boris Nadezhdin, a Russian municipal lawmaker, told viewers of a political talk show on NTV, a state-owned television channel, what had once been unspeakable: Moscow cannot, under current conditions, win this war.

This year, hundreds of Russian tanks have gone missing in Ukraine.

It’s important to find these tanks within the first 48 hours because after that, there’s a 97% chance they’ll be towed away by a Ukrainian farmer
