The war is not going that well for Russia. Backed by NATO Ukraine has made substantial gains in the south, the SBU has blown up the critical Kerch Bridge between Russia and Crimea and the Germans have been all over the Russians in the propaganda war.
However, Russophobe Western politicians and the MSM are hugely exaggerating Russia’s problems. President Putin has appointed a new, no-nonsense commander, General Sergey Surovikin and Russian and Byelorussian troops are massing for an armored thrust on Kiev.
The Kerch Bridge has partially reopened to traffic, the situation in the south is fluid and Russia appears to be gaining control of the air.
Being effective, General Surovikin has attracted criticism for alleged war crimes. There is no reason however to take any of the allegations seriously. Human Rights Watch for example is pro-German and anti-Russian.
He may have shot a few demonstrators but he was only following orders. Motorists in London would probably welcome his appointment as Metropolitan Police Commissioner, given the problems the Stop Oil nutters are causing. (On October 12th poor Lord Fellowes was held up for two hours in Parliament Square by these loonies.)
