The Russian army had just experienced the setback of Kharkov , and then suffered a defeat at the winning mann. The Crimea Bridge , which is now under the Russian army's strict prevention and control system, sent out a horrifying explosion. All kinds of unfavorable news came out on the Russian side for a while, which forced friends who supported Russia to sweat for Russia. Obviously, the Russian army needs to fight a turnaround!
First thing: new trends in the Russian army, Air Force Commander General Sergei Surovikin serves as the commander-in-chief of all Russian troops fighting in Ukraine!
On October 9, according to domestic media reports, Russian Ministry of Defense announced that Air Force Commander General Sergei Surovikin will serve as the commander of all Russian troops fighting in Ukraine.
Outside commented that this statement marked the first official appointment of a single commander by Russian troops in Ukraine.
First talk about why the Russian army wanted to make this appointment. Obviously, there are many reasons inside and outside. First, this shows that after Kharkov and bonus Mann lost, Russian senior officials have made profound reflection and adjustments to the loss.
Secondly, from the perspective of the adjusted personnel arrangements, this is the first time that the Russian army has appointed a "full-powered person in charge", which shows that the Russian army believes that the early failure is mainly due to problems in the coordination within Russia.
Third, this actually means a decentralization of power by Putin . Russian media previously disclosed that all military operations of the Russian army need to be reported to President Putin and approved before they can be implemented. Obviously, after experiencing setbacks, Russian senior officials realized the importance of professional people doing professional things.
The fourth, which is obviously the intention of the Russian top leaders to calm internal debates. In fact, after the Russian army lost, Wagner Group and Kadyrov pointed their finger at Russian Defense Minister Shoigu. To make such personnel arrangements, it is obvious that Sergei Surovikin, who is capable, will do something on the battlefield and win back the honor of the National Defense Forces.
To say that the newly appointed Sergei Surovikin can be said to be the highest commander appointed by the Russian army since the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
In fact, Russia's combat troops entering Ukraine actually have three forces, one is the mercenaries of Wagner Group, the second is Kadyrov's Chechen Army, and the third is the Russian Defense Force. There are obviously three systems between these three forces, and coordination and integration have always been a problem.
President Putin is now authorized, which shows that Russia hopes to resolve the coordination issues between various forces through this appointment.
And Sergei Surovikin can be said to be a general who started from the Russian army and has excellent business capabilities. This person participated in the Soviet army's Afghan War in his early years, and then participated in a series of military operations against Chechnya , Georgian , and Syria , and performed well in combat command.
Sergei Surovikin was entrusted with an important task, and it is obvious that President Putin has high hopes for this. Under the full command of Sergei Surovikin, we will wait and see whether the Russian army can fight a beautiful turnaround.
The second thing: The US military evaluates China's military strength, and the US military admits that the PLA's strength should not be underestimated!
On October 9, according to domestic media reports, at a special seminar held by the US Department of Defense recently, U.S. military officials and think tanks said that since the Russian conflict, the tactical literacy demonstrated by the Russian army has made the Russian army no longer the second military force in the world. The People's Liberation Army has now come from behind and surpassed the Russian army in all respects.
Former Deputy Defense Secretary of the United States Michel Flunois said that although the PLA has not fought a war in recent decades, in the past 10 years, the speed of the PLA's various branches of the army, navy and air has been replacing new equipment, and its exercises and training are unprecedented in terms of actual combat. The United States should not underestimate the strength of the PLA.
Senior officials of the US military believe that most of the modernization plans of the Pentagon require the achievement of goals in the 2030s, but this time point is likely to put the US military at a backward level because the development speed of the PLA is accelerating significantly.
The US military admitted that China's military research and development speed is accelerating unprecedentedly. China's sixth-generation fighter jet, H20, may be equipped with troops at a faster speed than the United States expected.
In the latest assessment, the US military stated that compared with the Russian army, the People's Liberation Army and the Russian army are a completely different military force. The People's Liberation Army has stronger strength in intelligent, drones and information-based operations, which the United States cannot underestimate.
It is obvious that although the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has continued, the US military has stared at the Russian army's performance with one eye and the other has been staring at us.
In the assessment of the US military, there is a clear tendency to belittle Russia and pay more attention to China. Obviously, this shift from the US military shows that the US may invest greater resources to deal with us in the future.
For us, no matter whether the US assessment is true or not, the only thing we need to do is to build a modern and strong army.
comes from the praise of the opponent and the pride of complacent, which are all fatal. To some extent, the Russian-Ukrainian conflict has allowed us to learn a lot.
If the Russian-Ukraine conflict is reviewed now, if the Russian army has a sufficient estimate of the assistance of Ukraine and NATO before the special military operation begins, and a large number of investigation and attack drones are purchased, the Russian army's battlefield performance should be much better than it is now.
It is obvious that the most important thing in developing the national defense industry is to be pragmatic, otherwise it will be too late to fight once the battle begins. Therefore, we can just listen to the assessment of the United States, and the most important thing is to do our own things well.
The third thing: Russian officials speak out again and do not refuse negotiations!
On October 9, According to Russian TASS, Alexei Polichok, director of the Second Division of the CIS Affairs of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said that Russia has never refused to negotiate with Ukraine. Ukrainian President Zelensky's remarks about refusing to negotiate with Russia are completely unconstructive.
He also pointed out that Russia does not oppose the efforts made by other countries to facilitate the Russian-Ukrainian negotiations, but the coordinator should persuade the Ukrainian authorities to stop military operations that began in 2014.
The Russian army now frequently releases sincerity in peace talks, which is indeed surprising, and it also shows that the Russian army does not want to continue to fight. Under what circumstances will the
peace talks happen? In fact, it only happens in one situation, that is, when neither side of the war can continue to fight.
For the Russian army, the most important thing is to consolidate existing achievements, especially the achievements of the four states entering Russia.
However, Ukraine obviously would not agree. On October 14, Ukrainian President Zelensky approved the decision of the National Security Council on the impossible negotiations with Russian President Putin. Ukraine's meaning is very clear and we will never negotiate with Russia.
This high attitude of the Ukrainian army also reflects that the current war is beneficial to the Ukrainian army. If the Russian army now advances to the Ukrainian capital Kiev and wins a scattered victory, I am afraid that the Russian army will stand up and make peace with the Ukrainian army.
It is obvious that Russia and Ukraine do not have any basis for negotiations now. The game between countries depends entirely on strength, and things that cannot be obtained on the battlefield cannot be obtained on the negotiating table. This is true for Ukraine and for Russia!
