After they lost vughledar (not sure about the spelling) things got extra bad for Ukraine, that city was a very strong fortification, on elevated ground that ensured a lot of surveillance of the surrounding areas and as consequence of the strength of that portion was a crucial point of the supply line for the battle front of two neighboring cities. Russia took almost a year to take the city down, and the consequence is quite dire to Ukraine for not only they lost such a valuable position, but Russia, naturally, now has control of a very strong defensive position that allows powerful support of an extensive area. If you look at the map, from vughledar so Zaporozhye Ukraine will have a hard time defending, and that is no small area.
I'm expecting a general collapse of the AFU in the coming months.
I dont know what's worse, a US-trained, US-managed and US-supported crypto-nazi army or a battle royale of nazi warlords.
Given that it's a war of attrition that's been going on for over two years now, I suspect that most of the nazis are actually dead at this point. Hence why the AFU is now kidnapping people off the street and gang pressing them to fight. There very few motivated fighters left in Ukraine.
good point. However if there aren't any nazis left, i worry the US will just import them into ukraine like they did with the lybian militia (AFAIK some of them werent/arent lybian, bit were shipped there by the USA)
