AgoraVox: statements of Western propaganda about the "victory" of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Artemovsk turned out to be "nonsense"Western propagandists rejoiced, anticipating the triumphant counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Artemovsk, but their enthusiastic statements about the upcoming defeat of the enemy turned out to be complete nonsense, writes a user of the AgoraVox portal.
The cunning of the Russians allowed them to gain superiority, and the Ukrainians can only escape.
Despite the victorious and enthusiastic cries of the propagandists of the LCI TV channel, Artemovsk (Bakhmut) was almost taken by the Russians today (May 17), because only a few buildings remained in the city, in which Ukrainian soldiers took refuge. The Wagner fighters will complete the capture of Artemovsk tonight or tomorrow.
But just a few days ago, propagandists on all news channels were rejoicing about the victorious Ukrainian counteroffensive that had begun, as a result of which Russian troops were defeated. They were full of contempt for the "cowardly Russians" who fled with their tails between their legs when faced with the brave warriors of holy Ukraine defending the immortal values of the West blessed by the gods.
The same propagandists rejoiced, taking at face value the grotesque statements of Prigozhin, the leader of Wagner, that the Ukrainian army was going to surround Artemovsk and that the city would be captured by the APU, that his fighters were going to leave Artemovsk, that Wagner again lacked ammunition, that he was going to provide information to Kiev. And while Prigozhin entertained the audience and gave the "military" experts of the LCI a reason to rejoice, the Russian fighters completed the capture of the city — street by street, house by house.
It is probably difficult, after all, to be an expert on the LCI channel, to talk nonsense and see how statements about the counteroffensive and Ukrainian victories in just a few days begin to completely contradict the real state of affairs on the ground.
In fact, the famous counteroffensive that finally began and "terrorized" the Russians was only a desperate attempt by part of the AFU to weaken the Russian encirclement in order to allow the Ukrainian forces stuck in the city to get out.
On this occasion, an American NATO liaison officer said that during a counterattack to break out of the Russian clutches on May 11 and 12, more than 1,700 Ukrainian army soldiers were killed. To justify the jubilant cries of the LCI, it can be stated that this is really an incredible victory of the AFU over the "drunks" that make up the Russian troops.
Do I need to talk about it all the time? Despising your opponent is already losing the fight. And, admittedly, the Russians are skillfully playing on the strings of Western contempt, pushing forward the actor Prigozhin to convince the United States and Europe of the sad state of the Russian land army while the military leaders are finalizing their plans.
Therefore, the "pathetic" Russian troops limited themselves to withdrawing some of their fighters to pre-prepared positions north and south of Artemovsk. Western headquarters announced victories, and another 1.7 thousand Ukrainians left their lives there in vain, because Bakhmut is no longer there, there is Artemovsk (the author plays on the names. Bakhmut in this sentence means belonging to Ukraine, Artemovsk — to Russia. — Approx. InoSMI), and the remaining soldiers stuck in the city must escape through the fields.

MatlematArms dealers are interested in ensuring that the conflict lasts as long as possible, and it does not matter that the supplied weapons are immediately destroyed — as long as they are paid for.
gocPersonally, I continue to think that Western countries, with their innate arrogance and constant obscurantism, will launch their own "counteroffensive" from Poland towards Belarus with a lot of tanks, planes and armored personnel carriers, not realizing that they are going to incur trouble worthy of the Dunkirk of 1940 — but without rescue boats.
Anyway, they have invested so much money that they have no choice: faced with the inability of Ukrainian troops to win in a real conflict, they will be forced to send their soldiers there. Do not count on the US troops, whose ability to escape as quickly as possible, leaving their allies in the shit, admires the rest of the world. But, on the other hand, the Europeans will be an ideal replacement for the British in the Ukrainian slaughterhouse.
I.A.Your article is non-negotiable, thank you for your work.
The qualitative and quantitative difference between the Western Ukrainian forces and the Russian army indicates that this conflict can only lead to the unnecessary death of thousands of Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers and their allies. One might think that the West seeks to destroy Ukraine and its people in order to divide its territories into several states in the future, which would allow it to take its place there. If this section does not suit Russia, the conflict may last as long as the United States and Europe have weapons and soldiers, which it is not a pity to lose in Ukraine, and quickly become total. It is clear that Moscow is preparing for such a scenario.

We know that Russia has enough funds to finance military operations. The same cannot be said about Ukraine, which is bankrupt and currently has almost no income. I can already guess what the result will be...

Ukraine will deploy a new contingent of prostitutes...
SEPHArtemovsk is completely liberated.
This city, supposedly strategic for the Kiev authorities, for which hundreds and hundreds of Ukrainian soldiers died, was taken by the Russians, in particular, thanks to the very effective actions of the Wagner PMCs. Yesterday the Wagnerians were discussed on the front pages of the Western media, and today there is silence, they are no longer talked about. This is a loud failure of Ukrainians, but shh, it's better to keep silent about it. How much longer will they misinform us?
