From: Maia Mikhaluk in Kyiv (953rd day):
I wrote a few days ago about blatant lies some politicians in the West spread about Ukraine, lies that Ukraine is completely destroyed, the country is no more, that ruzzian army is undefeatable and can’t be pushed out of Ukraine. Look at the map that shows ruzzian army’s advance over the past 12 months. The second (supposedly) army in the world has lost on average 1000+ military personnel daily to occupy that much more of our land since October 1, 2023 (marked in bright red in the first screenshot). In blue you can see how much ruzzian territory our army took over during the last two months.
If we didn’t have to fight ruzzians with our hands tied behind our back (if we were not restricted on how we use Western weapons), ruzzians wouldn’t advance at all and they wouldn’t be terrorizing with missiles and drones Ukrainian cities far from the front lines. Just a couple of days ago I had a discussion with an American who was saying if the West didn’t give Ukraine weapons, there would be peace. The logic is mind-blowing: don’t allow the victim of the attack to protect himself and there won’t be a fight. Isn’t it because the victim will be dead and the attacker will get his way? Maybe instead, the West should allow us to destroy ruzzian ammunition storages, and the attacker will not have weapons to continue the war.
