Merry Christmas Amigo
Alexander was talking about fightings in the center of Bakhmut while ISW sources were talking about minor advances on the outskirt. your reports are lousy because you are using Russian sources and not independent ones.
Alexander is definitely not an economist. Your Russian senior officials will never admit that the oil export plunged. The large Chinese and Greek oil shippers claim that they stopped loading Russian oil because of the recent price caps and sanctions. Less Russian oil exported means fewer ruble transactions and the ruble losing relevance in energy trades. It will get even harder when gas sanctions kick in. New Russian plans to open gas fields for the Chinese are coming too late.
Even after the huge Russian mobilization and applying 40k Russian prisoners by the Wagner Group in Bakhmut, Russians didn't make any serious advances in Ukraine. It looks more like a Russian attempt to stop the future Ukrainian offensive in Zaporizhia has failed. The West is sending military support worth $5 billion for the next offensive in January.
The longer the politicians STAY out of the war strategies the better it will be for both the politicians and the military. The politicians have done their job by trying diplomacy and reason so now it is in the hands of the military to do their job until it is done. The politician's job now is to support the military in every way possible.
Merry Christmas Alexander to you and your loved ones! I have to say 2 armored divisions and 2 infantry divisions are not 10.000 men, they're about 50.000 men…
Christmas "holidays"??
How strange. It seems the title of this video is completely false! Can somebody explain this?!
It would make sense to me for the Russians to stay out of western Ukraine and away from Kiev because this would give an excuse to bring in Polish troops and more support from the Ukrainian allies. As long as Russia concentrates on the area where it now fights AND is achieving 90% of its ultimate goal anyway, it limits the propaganda from the West that Russia is an aggressor, with its eyes set on capturing Poland etc.
Buon Natale a tutti, 🍾🔥🍗🍷👋🎅
Buying Chinese and Indian money
Merry Christmas Alexander and thank you so much for uploading another great video during this holiday.
As always Alexander your assessment is spot on.👍👍👍👍👍
BTW..love that Formulation
The Ukis fight to gain Property..
For show purpose,
Russians fight to wipe the Uki Army out..
Excellent..simple.. true.
Yes, I saw Pres Putin go to Tula..
I love it Russia is Ramping Up..baby..
For Whatever the Future holds… they're READY
Ready .Steady .. Go.
Alexander…I have to laugh at myself..
I'm always Telling Russia
To stop sending anything to the Gangsters..
WRONG..
Need it to Pay for the Uptick.. baby.
I hope Russia is putting in
$200-250 BILLION DOLLARS FOR DEFENSE.
In to Win..
Marry Christmas to you and your family Alexander!
Russia's most serious weakness all along has been deficiency in manpower, though this seems to be improving. Ukrainians are still behaving as though they can attack on several fronts bringing success somewhere as Russia must move around limited men. This advantage is lessening but Russia still needs more manpower. Happy Christmas!
Peace upon earth, to men of good will .
Mince once ground can not be unground
A huge gas pipeline explosion outside St. Petersburg last month, major fires in two separate Moscow shopping malls allegedly caused by dodgy welding, and faulty power grids that have left tens of thousands without heat and electricity are just some of the incidents reported since Russia’s efforts to obliterate Ukraine’s infrastructure that began in October.
Merry Christmas wishes for and your family from Holland!
Merry Christmas Alexander and to your family too.
@20:00, USA /NATO instigated the Ukraine War, and thus, will supply Ukraine with as much weapons as feasible to grind down the Russian forces. To date the USA has supplied nearly $140 billion worth of weapons and more to come as the war progresses — such is the US commitment. The notion that Ukraine will give up the fight because it has ran out of weapons is ludicrous.
Mr Mercouris, wish you all the best!
Merry Xmas, Alexander. I'll say a similar thing again on the 6th. 😜
Watching from Davao City Philippines. Merry Christmas everyone!
Merry Christmas to you and your family Alexander all the way from Nairobi Kenya. Thank you for the priceless updates you give on your channel. On many many occasions when Geo Political discussions have come up between my friends and I, I give them an alternative view of things taken mainly from your analysis and understanding of the New world order we face. The icing on the cake is when they are left gob smacked, wondering how they had never seen the world from this view. Once again thank you for your excellent work.
Happy Christmas all
Mary Christmas my friends,,still while this war is going on no need for that,,,let them stop this madness
I believe if Alexander if you share the links you refer would be very helpful.
But it seems that their motivation is not enough .The Russians let their canons speaking the language of death when the Ukranians attack ! The outcome is clear Ukranian defeat in the end and collapse !
Merry Christmas sir Ty for sharing you brilliant work with us
Good day
To grow a man you need at least 18 years, to build a building you need two years. So Russian artilery don't care about the destruction and territory, as long as Ukranians keep sending meat to meat grinder.
Where is the link to the mentioned article?
Russian forces are not deep in bakhmut you liar !!!
Wagner group leader wants to mobilize women in prison !
All male conscripts in Donbas dead so they are Mobilizing women in Donbas !
Bakhmut still stands on xmas day !!! Glory to the NATO empire.
You were born for this!!
Youre so damn good👍
