Is Russia gonna go scorched earth and just nuke the fuck out of everything?

Or maybe not nukes because the fallout would affect them as well, but they've got enough big ass non-nuke bombs they could use too IIRC

That tweet is missing important info. Withdrawing to where?

This is a war. And it sucks to come off as pro-Russian but isnt it possible these Russian troops are going to the area where they lost ground to fight and provide backup to that group.

Crimea is the single most important region there for Russia. Theres a reason they took it over back in 2014.

Yea. All that is missing is withdrawing to where. Which changes the narrative which I understand why it could be left out. If it is withdrawing to Russia than maybe Ukraine is winning.

If it is going to the Kharkiv area well that doesnt give the story the Russians are running away touch that tweet is giving off. Kinda sucks this reporting would leave out such an important detail.

What this reads to me is that there's a total systems collapse of Russian military control, which implies a whole lot about Putin. There was a huge military gathering a few days ago in Sochi, and Putin didn't attend.

Holy shit, losing in the Donbass is one thing, but pulling out of Crimea would signify a catastrophic failure for the Russians. The Ukrainians aren't even pushing in the south.

Need a load more information.

Crimea isn't even under threat yet. Which means if they are withdrawing the Russian military's collapse must be larger and more encompassing than just what's happening at or near the front.

So if Russia loses does that mean the end of Putin? And the sanctions will end so he can turn back on the Oil to Europe.

If they are pulling troops out of strategically important areas to reinforce a collapsing front, it means they have very little left in the way of actual reserves, and are getting extremely desperate. It means the front is collapsing so badly, that any pretext of rear line defenses are gone, and they're holding out all hope that whatever they can throw at the front will be enough to hold.

Pulling out of Crimea is massive this is like Nazis being driven out of France.

Wow. Shit must be going down in Russia. Calls for Putin to resign and now pulling out of Crimea. Hopefully it isn't scorched earth like some have pointed out. He is insane enough to do that for a chance to hold on.

probably because Ukraine took back the north from last I read

might be that staying in crimea assures absolute defeat and some general realizes it is better to keep these troops alive and get the equipment than satisfy Putin's stupidity

report is also he locked himself in his palace with no communication so

https://www.cnn.com/2022/09/13/europe/ukraine-izium-recaptured-intl-cmd/index.html

"A (Russian) artilleryman came and said Father, we saved you from the Nazis, Valeriy said. And I said to them, Show me one.

Valeriy said he spoke to the young soldiers in Russian and tried to make them see that they were destroying the once-close relationship Ukrainians and Russians held, particularly in this part of the country which is so close to the border.

I told them they destroyed a mans house, and he was from the Kursk region (of Russia), Valeriy said. Everyone here has relatives in Belgorod (in Russia) and other cities.

He said at one point, Russian reconnaissance forces came to him and asked, Who have we come to liberate here?

That confusion and sense of disillusionment from among the Russian ground troops was likely a major factor in their retreat from this region in the past week.

Sounds like trouble for Putin

Important to note is that Crimea has been under Russian control for 8 years. It's not just military there, plenty Russian civilians have settled there by now.

If they're truly evacuating Crimea, it's more significant than just relocating troops to bolster the front lines.

... has Putin been a weird puppet for others in Russia for a little while now?

Putin used to come across as an intelligent man whose actions actually made sense. The massive invasion of Ukraine was REALLY strange. It seems like people have been lying to Putin a lot about his military capabilities, victories, and maybe even about what is happening in Ukraine in general? Like, why would Putin think there are Nazi's in the region?

With Putin locked away in his bunker and not attending military top brass conferences, I suspect he's no longer in control.

He didn't. That was always propaganda.

THIS was the level of their false flag justifications:

A never worn Swaistka shirt, literally straight out of the packet.

And a handwritten note about how big of Nazis they are LITERALLY signed "Signature Illegible"

I mean really?

I guess why try when you have state media. Like Trumpers denying election results

Reports seem to indicate that he's spent the better part of two decades slowly and systematically eliminating disagreeable-yet-competent military / government figures and replacing them with corrupt, pocket-lining yes-men. If so, the Ukraine invasion is the sudden yet inevitable comeuppance of his kleptocracy: the tanks don't work because no one in power invested the time / money to maintain them, the army's green because no one in power invested the time / money to train them, etc.

Damn, if Russia actually ends up losing Crimea that's insane, even when it first became clear the invasion wasn't going well for them I don't think anyone expected Ukraine retaking Crimea was possible.

If the leader punishes everyone that tells him things he doesn't want to hear, he quickly ends up hearing an overly optimistic report on everything in his country. Brutal dictatorships often have serious problems because no one who knows the truth or has a good idea for improving things can speak up out of fear they might be exiled or executed for it.
