As we all know, the current situation in Eastern Europe can be said to be very unstable, there is a possibility of hot war at any time, as the main force of possible war, as well as the parties, the Ukrainian army has deployed 100,000 troops on the front line of The Donbass. However, this is inferior to russia's 170,000-strong army, whether it is the quality of personnel, weapons and equipment, or combat experience. Although there are many careerists in Ukraine who are full of fighting spirit, there is no shortage of clear-headed people in the Ukrainian army.
A few days ago, according to Russian media reports, The director of the Ukrainian Military Intelligence Agency, Budanov, said that once Russia and Ukraine start a real war, without the help of the West, the Russian army will eliminate all the military towns in Ukraine within 30 to 40 minutes. On the first day of the war, the Ukrainian army's ammunition depots were destroyed and the combat troops collapsed. Communications in the command center were cut off and there was no capacity for effective defense and logistical support.
For such a result, Budanov believes that although it is difficult to accept, this is the reality, and at the same time, it also shows how fatal it is to abandon nuclear weapons, if there are nuclear weapons, then even if the Russian army is as many as 170,000, it is not a problem for Ukraine. Apparently, Ukraine began to regret it after being fooled by the West into abandoning a thousand nuclear bombs. Although it was said that it was a helpless move for Ukraine to abandon nuclear weapons at that time, as long as it held the nuclear stick, other countries could not take Ukraine.
However, in order to follow the pro-American line, Ukraine still gave up without hesitation. As a result, NATO still has not included Ukraine in its own territory, and not all Ukrainians want to join the West, for example, most residents of Crimea, Donetsk Oblast and Luhansk Oblast are more inclined to be Russians than Ukrainians. Even. Some localities have also announced the formation of their own countries, a series of chain reactions that have plunged Ukraine into turmoil.
At the same time, Russia has also been very strong on Ukraine for geographical reasons. From Putin's point of view, Russia really can't watch Ukraine fall into the arms of the West. To this end, the conflict between Russia and Ukraine has been on the surface since 2014, when the Crimean region took the initiative to join Russia, leaving the Ukrainian side shrouded in a dark cloud.
From this status quo, the Memorandum of Understanding signed by the Western countries at that time in order to cut Ukraine's nuclear weapons was just an empty promise, after which the West did nothing, only imposed so-called economic sanctions on Russia. What is even more ironic is that Russia at that time was also the main country that proposed Ukraine's nuclear cuts, and in order to reassure Ukraine, it even promised to guarantee Ukraine's sovereignty after the nuclear cuts. But what the status quo is, I believe everyone is very clear, I have to say that the intestines of Ukraine may have taught China a lesson, warning us that when a country loses the bottom card, it can only be slaughtered. 【Three Soils】
