I don't think the Ukrainians have history books with them. What are the Ukrainans trying to do? Nothing to do with Germany or French, did you read the OP?

 French tried it; Germans tried it - wait and see. Ukraine troops will get massacred as they are now. Nearly Game Over as this is a position for negotiation when they surrender.

The objective of Ukraine may not be to stay there.

Really? what huge daily losses?

 

Ukraine has taken more ground in a week than Russia has taken in the last year.

 Erm Russia controls 20% of Ukraine

Ukraine has taken a few square miles for display purposes - catching Russia off-guard I grant you - it won't last long

That might have been more meaningful but for Ukraine's assault on Donbas since 2014.

Don't you mean, assaulting the Russian separatists who were transplanted there by Stalin, after killing off the indigenous Ukrainians in the Holodomor?

What's that got to do with your claim.

There's a number of hypotheses. One would be to weaken the Russian front near Kharkiv.

 

The other would be to humiliate Putin with the Russians themselves, which has already succeeded.

 

Apparently 100 Russian troops have already surrendered to the Ukrainians near Kursk, which doesn't say much for their willingness to fight and die for Mother Russia.

There are a number more Mr. Biased

To deflect from the daily taking of land - gaslighting the losses

To prove to their western masters that they are doing something

To get ready for negotiations - which are inevitable.

Russia has come together and this will only make them hate the aggressors even more.

Soldiers are captured on both sides daily - hopefully released in a swap.

You don't get it, do you?  it is not about Putin there are far tougher leaders waiting to take the reigns should he die. Be careful what you wish for.

Calling me Mr. Biased is just argument ad hominem, illustrating your own bias.

 

So when 100 Russians are released in a swap, do you think they will be greeted as heroes, shot for cowardice, or sent to the meat grinder?

 Heroes - they defend Mother Russia. All this silly excursion will do is unite even the critics to fight. Russia is a hardened beast when woken up - ask the Germans.

Your lucky Ukraine has not carried out a fake referendum and annexed Kurch. It's only simpleton Russians that do things like that lol
