Russia Moving Troops Back to the Ukraine Border After Epic Fakeout

This is brilliant.

Joe Brandon literally gave a date that Russia was planning to invade. He said a specific date. On that date, Russia withdrew forces from the border.

Now, they’re moving them back.

This is wargames at tiptop level.

CNN:

Russian forces massed along Ukraine’s borders have increased by approximately 7,000 troops in recent days, the United States alleged Wednesday evening, despite claims from Moscow it was pulling back.

A senior US administration official said the increase renders Russia’s assertion of withdrawal “false,” and warned President Vladimir Putin’s public openness to diplomacy was a guise.

“Every indication we have now is they mean only to publicly offer to talk, and make claims about de-escalation, while privately mobilizing for war,” the official said.

Or mobilizing for defense because you keep threatening war?

Could be.

The new estimates would place the number of Russian forces north of the 150,000 figure President Joe Biden cited in a televised address earlier this week. Western leaders had already greeted Russia’s claims of withdrawal with skepticism. On Tuesday, Biden said during a speech in the East Room that a withdrawal of Russian troops would be “good,” but that he had yet to see any evidence that such a pullback was underway.

“Our analysts indicate that they remain very much in a threatening position,” Biden said. “And the fact remains right now Russia has more than 150,000 troops encircling Ukraine and Belarus and along Ukraine’s border.”

No one knows how many troops there are. You can’t estimate that with satellites or drones.

The Russians are driving the Bidens and the NATOs nutso.

I have never seen genius like this in my entire life.

Please give me back my .su, so more people will know what kinds of geniuses are running the foreign policy of Russia.

Many fewer people know about the genius of Russian strategy and tactics due to the “NOT DELEGATED” status on my .su.

I’m sure this was some kind of accident, but maybe someone is reading this and can be like “we’d better get that status fixed.”
