(#5345) Russian troop morale is very low!

      With little rotation for the Russian troops at the contact line the idea that Russia is capable of withstanding a strategically intelligent advance by Ukraine is unfathomable. Ukraine on the other hand is pumped up high to fight and retake their Russian illegally occupied territory. Not only does Ukraine rotate their troops from the contact line but they do not use their troops as cannon fodder like what Russia does to its troops. When you know your commanders have your back and the enemy is tired and disillusioned the edge goes to Ukraine. I know the Russian troops are scared of not fighting since their commanders are told to shoot them if they don't fight. So that kind of incentive is another depressing reason for their low morale.
     I really do expect a breakthrough any time now for Ukrainian forces. They have been building up several key points of momentum toward breaking the front line. Where on the front line that Ukraine does try to flood their troops through is still unknown but several spots are obvious. Yet doing the obvious to how Russia thinks is not how Ukrainians think. This whole defense and offense of Ukraine against the Russian horde has been unique and resourceful enough to catch the Russians unawares. Watching how Ukraine is strategically fighting the Russians will be a whole course in military college.
     Of course the outcome of Ukraine defeating the Russians on Ukrainian territory is still a story not yet told but we are seeing glimpses of how it may happen. Ukraine still needs weapons from the west to continue their march to the Sea of Azov in order to cut the Russian invasion in half. That is my best guess as to how the current Ukrainian offense will play out. Each day that goes by with no further rotations for Russian troops only makes them more bone weary and easier targets for elimination. Such is the fate of the Russian troop. They allow themselves to be subjected to a tyrant who does not fight himself but is easily able to send nearly 275,000 of his troops to death.
